        Well there are two conditions mentioned here. Those who overcome and are counted as children of God and are then therefore safe. And that everyone otherwise are indeed lost.

            What is the silliness you refer to? Why is it silliness?

              For one thing the idea that you believe that god communicated those very words to men, and that men didn't cook them up themselves is silly. Second the idea that sinners, you know people, are going to burn in a lake of fire and brimstone in a second death is also silly. Why is it silly? Because there is no good reason to believe any of it!

                Yes it is written, by men. Who else would write it, God?

                  So how do you know that God did not communicate to men those things? You're silly based on your own argument. OK, let's just say there is no God and therefore no judgement, there being no God and no kind of second death there being no kind of judgement. That when one is dead there is no consciousness beyond this life. Now when we die, all awareness ends for us. So if my understanding is wrong, when I am dead, I am not going to know I was wrong. You cannot say that if what I understand is true. You have no out.

                  Your claiming no good reason and having no reason to know you are right - you're being silly by your own standard.

                    Yes, men wrote down the words, men copied them. And later translated them and were printed. And so based on that you are contending God didn't give those words to men.

                      exactly. Believing in God is how we avoid going to hell. Sinning is the reason we go to hell.

                      If you were convicted for a crime and thrown in prison, but were told that if you asked the governor, he could get you released, would that governor be the reason you were sent to prison? No, he might be the reason you get out, but the reason you are in prison was because you are a criminal.

                        No. Repenting and accepting God's grace is how we avoid going to hell. Mere belief is not enough.

                          On the contrary, it is long-standing belief that people choose their fate. Not sure why you felt the need to exclude that part of her statement.

                              People choosing their fate doesn't mean God doesn't send people to hell. IE: a criminal chooses to commit a crime and the judge sentences him to prison.
                              "As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths." Isaiah 3:12

                              There is no such thing as innocence, only degrees of guilt.
