IS THE GIFT OF PROPHECY FUNCTIONING IN THE CHURCH TODAY? If we still get new visions and prophecies from God these days, and they are applicable to us now, then why are we not using them to write a “newer” New Testament? Or do we have the canon of Scripture and that's all we need? Hebrews 1 tells us how God communicates with us today and it is the latter: "In the past, God spoke to our forefathers through the prophets." So, yes, God used to speak to us through the prophets; many times and in various ways. That was God's methodology at that time “in the past” before Hebrews was written. How does He do so now? Here is that as Hebrews 1 continues: "In these last days He has spoken to us by His Son." The words given to us by Old Testament prophets have been written down in the Old Testament and those spoken to us by His Son, Jesus (for these last days) have been recorded in the New Testament. Guess what. That's it. So, we're done! This continuing idea that God is going around to different people giving them "new words" and “new ideas,“ would mean we need to make additions to the New Testament. I hope no one would even go down that route. In essence, 
these supposed “new words” and “new visions” are just people getting outside the Bible. | image tagged in prophecy,future,bible,god,jesus,christian | made w/ Imgflip meme maker

Do Christians still worship at Jewish temples & sacrifice animals to cover our sins? No. Our high priest today is Jesus who cleanses us from sin. So Old Testament Civil and Ceremonial laws deal with the people of Israel for that time and not the New Covenant we Christians are now under. 
(3) That said, the 3rd type, Jewish moral laws, ARE still in place today. Those are the Bible's teachings against stealing, murder, committing adultery, etc. Those are moral laws based on the moral character of God and are seen in the Old & New Testaments. God commanded us to be holy because He is holy. It's based on His character. So it's always been functioning. But again, for civil and ceremonial laws, the New Covenant in Christ covers those for Christians. WHAT ARE THE 3 TYPES OF OLD TESTAMENT JEWISH LAW? 
They were Civil, Ceremonial, & Moral.
(1) Civil was how to run their theocratic
government. Christians are not under that. So the
Old Testament death penalty for certain crimes was 
replaced for Christians when Jesus came.
Remember how Jesus freed the woman caught
in adultery. (2) Jewish ceremonial laws included the dietary laws against eating meats like pork. Again, we are no longer under those with the Christian New Covenant in Christ. | image tagged in bible,law,jesus,god,christian,jewish | made w/ Imgflip meme maker

HELL IS FOREVER & EVER - Scripture always cuts through the lies. That includes those who deny hell with its ETERNAL punishment. 

How can Seventh Day Adventists and Jehovah's Witnesses get around Matthew 25: "Then the unsaved will go away to ETERNAL punishment, but the righteous to ETERNAL life.” [Emphasis added] We all agree heaven is forever! But the very same verse says hell is also forever. If we get to heaven, we know we won’t ever be kicked out; praise God! 
But that same sentence says the
unsaved go to hell for “ETERNAL" punishment.
Hell is perhaps a primary reason God sent Jesus to die on the cross. God is not willing that any should perish. Matthew 25 says hell was originally created for the devil & demons, whose fate is sealed. 
Well, just like them, we rebelled, yet Christ gave us a way out. He's done it all. But using our free will we can reject it & then to hell we will go.
We’ve chosen our road. Instead, when we put our faith in Jesus, He is faithful to save, forgive & cleanse us of sin so we can be in heaven instead. Christ wasn’t tortured & then killed to gain some life enhancements for us like a mansion or expensive car, as false teachers claim. 
Jesus Christ came to destroy the works of the devil and in that way, save us from hell. | image tagged in hell,heaven,god,satan,demons,jesus | made w/ Imgflip meme maker
