I’m sure you know that Muslims have vivid dreams in which they meet Allah face-to-face, right? Do their dreams give them any actual “knowledge” about Allah, or are they just fucking dreams? Your dream was not an “experience”; it was a dream, you knucklehead.(April 24, 2013 at 8:24 pm)Strongbad Wrote: Yeah, but we know that Drich got the heebie-jeebies about hell from an ACTUAL DREAM, not his car stereo, so his authority cannot be questioned!
It wasn't the fear of Hell that inspired me to change. When I was there, I found that I had a weird sense on belonging or rather I knew that I belong there. What made me want to change was for the briefest of moments I experienced the boundless love God offered the saved for eternity, and I wanted to be apart of that more than anything. The lement and angiush I experienced in Hell was not because Hell itself, It came from the seperation of me from creation. The darkness of Hell was all consuming yes, and very scarry in it's own right, but it was the idea of eternal seperation after knowing what I gave up that was forever damming.
If hell is the alternative to heaven, then nobody has anything to worry about. Since neither of them exists, they cancel each other out. Poof!
