none of our popular concepts of hell can be found in Joshua's teachings.
that i snot true and using the hebrew word for Jesus does not lend itself to communication or you any credivbility.
Jesus talked about hell in Mt. 10:28, 18:9, 23:15, 23:33, Mk. 9:43, 45,47; Lk 12:5, 16:23 plus it is discussed in James, 2 peter and Revelation
so hell is firmly talked about and gives an exact description of what it will be like. plus other words are used as well, like 'lake of fire, etc.,)

this is a weak attempt by you and other secular scholars to make the Bible a human book. if the dead sea scroll sdid anything, it showed that many copyists were listening to the Holy Spirit and they did not change one word in the Bible.
yes we have those that altered the Bible but they were not believers of followers of God.
Roman Universal Church
there is and was no suchthing as the Roman universal church.
if you are referring to the RCC then say RCC but do not falsely imply that the RCC was the only church in exitence, it was not.

this almost stoppe dme from responding to you. if ou cannot be realistic then i won't respond in the future. in reading your post i see you are not a true christian and do not have the understanding of the Bible thatthe Holy Spirit provides. God is very clear thatunbelievers do not grasp biblical teachings. you may be jewish but it stillapplies because they reject Jesus as the messiah.
