Nowhere, he's dead.
@SW-User He's referring to where do we believe Judas went after he died, to heaven or hell?

@LadyGrace Yes, I know. I don't believe in hell.
@SW-User Okay, but the Bible says hell is very real and I think I would believe God, over man. God loves all of us and wants us to ensure that we don't go there. 🌹🤗💖

@LadyGrace Polite questions.
Jesus was ressurected by God and returned to heaven where he came from three days after he died. But Where was he during those three days?
God also said to Adam and Eve, "dust you are and to dust you return." I take that to mean they went back into non existence.

Also, why would he create a place like hell if he didn't expect anyone to die? Especially being a God of love. It doesn't make sense to me. Sorry.

@SW-User Captain, your basic understandings are as low as that of mine were 7, years back. Then i got into detail.

The flood you are referring to has been described so many times by the scientists. After the formation of core, it rained for 1000 years of that time to cool off the temperature of Earth according to one of the scientist.

The other one is regarding the continents were all one before the Tower of Babel. If you look at the North Eastern boundary of South America and match it up with the boundary of western Africa, it would fit directly as if someone broke it all into pieces. This jig saw issue was also pointed out by the scientists.
@SW-User Oh now you're interested huh? hahaha Go get a real job, man. This conversation is closed to you.

@SW-User That's just a theory that it rained. Did it actually rain? We don't know. It's an idea. That'd why I say "Get to the essence"

There have been great floods in transition period when earth shifted from paleolithic to neolithic age too. The ice melted and where would the water go? So, it's not for once. I was telling you the essence that flood came and it was humongous.



That's too a theory bud. It MIGHT have happened. Even the propounder was not sure of the drift as you are, the rate of the drift and there is much left to it. There were many theories and still, scientists are working on that part to develop new models.
@SW-User Honey, never be sorry. You are asking the wisest questions that anyone deserves an answer to and God gives us those answers in His Word. I promise you I will get back to you with an answer to your every question, but I cannot right now because I have to leave for an appointment. Please be patient with me and I will answer back as soon as I can. I want to give you the answers you deserve and not rush through this. Have a great day and stay safe. 🌹🤗
@SW-User Here's the full account, but I'll answer as I mentioned soon as I can.

"Falling headlong, he burst open in the middle and all his entrails gushed out."(Acts 1:18)

Here is further discussion from Matthew, verses 27:3-5?
He"hanged himself":"Then Judas, His betrayer, seeing that He had been condemned, was remorseful and brought back the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders, saying, “I have sinned by betraying innocent blood.” And they said, “What is that to us? You see to it!” Then he threw down the pieces of silver in the temple and departed, and went and hanged himself."

The fact that Judas fell"headlong"yet"burst open in the middle"(Acts 1:18) indicates that his body was bloated when he fell, which means that he was already dead. Judas hanged himself on a tree, and eventually the branch or the rope snapped, causing the described in Acts 1 above.
@SW-User Friend, you raised the most important questions that I believe many others here are asking as well, so I decided to answer your first question in the form of a post for all. Here it is:

@SW-User Here's the link I promised. They wouldn't let me send it until I get a note back from you first, so I'm sending it here.

God also said to Adam and Eve, "dust you are and to dust you return." I take that to mean they went back into non existence.

That would certainly seem logical, but I think you can see from my first writing I sent you, that our spirit lives on and Jesus demonstrated that during his resurrection. Spirits are eternal. They cannot die. We are made up of body, soul, and spirit. The body dies, but eventually joins our spirit.

The human spirit is part of man. The Bible says that the human spirit is the very breath of Almighty God and was breathed into man at the beginning of God’s creation: “Then the LORD God formed a man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being” (Genesis 2:7). It is the human spirit that gives us a consciousness of self and other remarkable, though limited, “God-like” qualities. The human spirit includes our intellect, emotions, fears, passions, and creativity. It is this spirit that provides us the unique ability to comprehend and understand (Job 32:8,18).
@SW-User God's love is unconditional, meaning He loves us all the same. Salvation is not determined by our performance, but has to do with having our sins forgiven, so that we can come back into right standing and fellowship with God Almighty, as He promised He would do. He turns no one away.

@SW-User God's love being unconditional, means he loves everyone the same, but one cannot get to heaven by their own good works. Believing in God and his promise to forgive us of our sins, is what saves us... is what gets us to heaven.

@SW-User God's LOVE is unconditional. Regardless of our performance, sins, etc., He still loves us, but the problem is, our sins keep us from heaven until we ask for forgiveness, and then God forgives us and this brings us back into right standing and fellowship once again with God the Father. But God turns no one away who wants to have salvation. We cannot walk into a holy heaven with sin on our heels. It wouldn't be called Heaven if that was the case. There's nothing Unholy that enters heaven, so when we have our sins forgiven by jesus, he is quick to forgive us so that we can have eternal life in heaven. This goes for everybody. Sin always keeps us separated from God until we do something about it. We're all in the same spiritual boat, in need of a Savior and without Him, we can't expect to walk into heaven with our sins.

@SW-User Hey, you back?

Suppose your wife roams around every home in the city when you are being a Captain and you know it, Will you keep her in your house or ask her to find herself a new house? I am sure you won't want her at your house even though you love her because of the turmoil it would create when your kids see her daily Romeos.

God wants to make heaven a place of peace, not a place of Chaos, not for God himself but so that his children over there don't live in turmoil.

@SW-User You have a wrong habit of mixing things up. You are connecting Flood with eternal heaven.


About your wife, Easy said than done. You want to deny to be some cool in my eyes but you know deep inside that you won't. You will throw her out not for your sake but if you love your children. In case you don't love your children, your wife could play around.
