Can a Christian go to hell?

[losthorizon]

A Christian who is saved by grace through faith alone is secure and guaranteed to be resurrected on the last day thanks to the free gift of God. However, once a believer has received that free gift, it is then time for him to run the race to attain the prize, and that prize is to be part of the first resurrection and reigning in the Kingdom. So a Christian who dies in unrepentant sin, is not living a sanctified life, and is not bringing forth fruit meet for repentance, is in jeopardy of being judged an unprofitable servant and receiving his portion with the unbelievers for a 1,000 years.

What is his "portion" and what happens to this unprofitable servant after 1000 years?

What is his "portion" and what happens to this unprofitable servant after 1000 years?

The portion was a reference to the following scripture...

"The lord of that servant will come in a day when he looketh not for him, and at an hour when he is not aware, and will cut him in sunder, and will appoint him his portion with the unbelievers." - Luke 12:46

...the portion he will receive is something similar to what the unbelievers will receive.

After 1,000 years the unprofitable servant will have his tears wiped away and will be a part of the second resurrection, entering into eternal life because of his belief in the saving grace of the Lord Jesus Christ.

You provided scriptural support for the unfaithful servant and his portion with the unbeliever but I didn’t see any such support for your version of a “1000 year Purgatory” – do you offer such support?

I do not advocate for a "1,000 year Purgatory" so it would be natural that I would not provide such support.

Then how do you explain your 1000 years of punishment followed by an eternity of tear wiping? Do you offer biblical support?

Forgive me, but I'm not sure why I would desire to do that. If you want to chat with the mods that's your prerogative. If you want new threads created, you create them. I'm not going to apologize for using Bible words on a Bible forum and if you don't want to derail threads, don't ask questions not pertaining to the thread or get all pious when someone uses a Bible word that accurately defines the nature of of the false church you were inquiring about.

Rufus...perhaps you do recognise my color. Please oblige me and start a thread in Chat to Mods where you and I can chat in private

How come your name isn't in the section where the mods show up? Shoot you have to watch everywhere...

There is no eternal tear wiping so I won't be providing Biblical support for that either.

Hell is cast into the Lake of Fire...they are not the same things.

"And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death." - Rev 20:4

No, I am quite opposed to the whore.

This epithet is rather offensive and uncalled for and inappropriate.

[seamus414]

I've read the forum rules and it was my understanding that this is a Bible forum of the Protestant persuasion who is opposed to the Roman Catholic Church of whom is defined in the Holy Bible as being a whore or the great whore.

"And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters:" - Revelation 17:1

"And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues." - Revelation 17:5

"And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire." - Revelation 17:6

"For true and righteous are his judgments: for he hath judged the great whore, which did corrupt the earth with her fornication, and hath avenged the blood of his servants at her hand." - Revelation 19:2

Why did you ask me that question if you didn't want me to respond? I am not a Roman Catholic and I am opposed to her, why do you favor her? Are you a Roman Catholic?

There is no evidence to say that the whore of Revelation is the RCC and your suggestion that it is is offensive and inappropriate.

Forgive my naivety as I'm new here. I was not aware there were so many Roman Catholic apologists on this protestant board.

So what you are saying is you have no biblical support for your notion that the “unprofitable servant” will enter into eternal life after a 1000 year period of penance.
