What are you thoughts on Annihilation?

the only condition for eternal life is Repenting of your sins and placing your trust and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, till He comes or you leave by physical death. The only opposition you have is the flesh. once that is down you are done. Your race is over and you are the victory in Christ. Apart from Christ, you have nothing.

it is possible with God. Ans Isaiah is not Jesus who said Hell is eternal. How one asks or thinks Christ is still suffering is errored thinking. Jesus defeated death, hell, and the grave. He died once and is a LIVE forevermore.

Which verse(s)?

I didn't suggest that Christ is still suffering. I am suggesting that if people have eternal life in hell then they're suffering more than Jesus ever did.

We can agree on that.

Revelation 1:18
18I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.

But do you agree that death and hell get destroyed in the lake of fire?

Revelation 20:14
14And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.

Jesu said they would suffer and Jesus did not say it was more than HE ever did. The Cross account was more than any man has ever endured, the weight of all the sin of the world? Then to reject so great a salvation, to go to place of eternal torment not made for man? remember the devil is going into the lake of fire and he is a spiritual being they do not burn up in fire. Jesus said they is a supernature fire how do we know that?

Jesus said

Matthew 13:50
and will throw them into the furnace of fire; in that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Matthew 18:8
“If your hand or your foot causes you to stumble, cut it off and throw it from you; it is better for you to enter life crippled or lame, than to have two hands or two feet and be cast into the eternal fire.


Matthew 25:41
“Then He will also say to those on His left, ‘Depart from Me, accursed ones, into the eternal fire which has been prepared for the devil and his angels;

Jesus said this was a place prepared by God of supernatural conditions. it is eternal and it has a fire that never goes out.


God lives outside man Fire triangle for heat, fuel, and oxygen. Human reasoning hopes hell is not like that. Wrong!

How can a loving God do such a thing? a sinner going to judge God? Using human rationale. Jesu said very clearly HE is the only way and without him, hell is the final place for all who reject Christ.

sugar-coated, make human reasoning as plausible for not being eternal, and even misrepresent the god of the Bible and His word.

people Don't bet their eternal soul on God saying you are good to go when you have rejected HIS son. Or that once you are in hell you no longer exist you will just be burned up and no more suffering. The devil is a liar.

I see where it says "eternal fire" but not where it says eternal torment.

Let's not use human rationale then. Let's strictly use the what Bible says. Where did Jesus say there is eternal torment? Verses about eternal fire don't say anything about anyone being tormented forever.

Your vain, humanistic philosophy doesn't amount to a hill of beans. Annihilationism is an unbiblical heresy. This isn't even a debate. The Scripture makes it abundantly clear that BOTH unredeemed mortal men AND unredeemable fallen angelic beings ARE CAST INTO THE SAME PLACE....Ghenna fire.
ETERNAL FIRE = ETERNAL PUNISHMENT = ETERNAL TORMENT

Matt 25:41, 46
Then He will say to those on His left, ‘Depart from Me, you who are cursed (MORTAL MEN), into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels
And they (SAME MORTAL MEN) will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.”

Jude 1:6-7
And the angels who did not stay within their own domain but abandoned their proper dwelling—these He has kept in eternal chains under darkness, bound for judgment on that great day. In like manner, Sodom and Gomorrah and the cities around them, who indulged in sexual immorality and pursued strange flesh, are on display as an example of those who sustain the punishment of eternal fire.

Mark 9:43-48
And if your hand should cause you to stumble, cut it off; it is better for you (MORTAL MEN) to enter into life crippled, than having two hands to go away into Gehenna, into the unquenchable fire. And if your foot should cause you to stumble, cut it off; it is better for you (MORTAL MEN) to enter into life lame, than having the two feet, to be cast into Gehenna. And if your eye should cause you to stumble, cast it out; it is better for you to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes, to be cast into Gehenna, where ‘their (MORTAL MEN) worm does not die, and the fire is not quenched.’

2 Thes 1:8-9
In flaming fire taking vengeance on them (MORTAL MEN) that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ:
Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power;

Rev 20:10
And the devil (FALLEN ANGEL) who had deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur (aka Gehenna), into which the beast and the false prophet (MORTAL MEN) had already been thrown. There they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.

Matt 8:29
“What do You want with us, Son of God?” they shouted. “Have You come here to torture us before the appointed time?

it was said in the very language Jesus used. Eternal torment


“Then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life.”.

Matthew 25:46 the KJV everlasting

Not good enough. It says only the smoke rises forever not that the torment lasts forever. It says they have no rest day or night, but not how many days or nights.

Let's stick solely with the scripture. It doesn't actually say anyone is tormented forever does it?

Doesn't say eternal torment/torture.

That word (punishment) is actually "kolasis" Strongs G2851. But it carries with it a very similar thought. And it fits the framework of an eternal prison with eternal torments.

All of this is a surely bitter pill for the vain humanistic philosophers on this thread to swallow. But it is an abject Biblical truth nevertheless.

What do you say the "eternal punishment is" in light of Jesus' own words:

Matthew 10:28
28And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.

John 3:16
16For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

John 6:51
51I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world. (My words: The offer only makes sense if it were possible to not live forever.)

Wrong. The many Scriptures I posted clearly indicate that it is "tormented, tortured" eternally forever and ever no doubt about it.

Read my posts completely. It's all there. Undeniable despite your denials. I am not going to waste time reposting the same thing over and over again.

Annihilationism is a heresy. I have provided far more than sufficient Scriptural evidence to solidify beyond a shadow of a doubt the doctrine of eternal punishment and torture OF UNREDEEMED MORTAL MEN in the very same Gehenna fire PREPARED for the devil and his angels.

Should you choose not to listen to the words of Jesus that is your problem not mine.

do you really read what was posted?

“Then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life.”

Rev 20:10 says :

10 And the devil who had deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur, into which the beast and the false prophet had already been thrown. There they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.


FYI forever and ever in Greek is FOREVER AND EVER.

DICE IT SLICE IT, call in any Greek theologian you want, and commentary The full context of Hell which Jesus is the final authority on the SubJect of HELL HE said it is a place of eternal conditions.

Jesus is recorded in Mathew, Mark. Luke and John and in the Book of Rev and in other writings of the eternal place of hell and is torment, suffering, and gnashing of teeth. But you know better.

I have already posted Revelation 14:9-11. And proven beyond doubt that it concatenates perfectly with all the other Scriptures about eternal torment and everything else that Jesus had to say about it.

Denial of clear-cut Scripture and spreading heresies is a sin.

You are taking one description of a part of the text and making or trying to formulate a doctrine.

FYI Destroy both soul and body in hell that is done forever.

You failed to read the full context of John chapter three too. verse 16 is not the only part of the context. You must read above 3:16 and below it what does Jesus say?

18“He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20For everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed. 21But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be clearly seen, that they have been done in God.”

Jesus also says in chapter 5:


24 “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who hears My word and believes in Him who sent Me has everlasting life, and shall not come into judgment, but has passed from death into life.

25Most assuredly, I say to you, the hour is coming, and now is, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God; and those who hear will live. 26For as the Father has life in Himself(eternal life ), so He has granted the Son to have life in Himself,(salvation) 27and has given Him authority to execute judgment also, because He is the Son of Man. 28Do not marvel at this; for the hour is coming in which all who are in the graves will hear His voice 29and come forth—those who have done good, to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil, to the resurrection of condemnation. 30I can of Myself do nothing. As I hear, I judge; and My judgment is righteous, because I do not seek My own will but the will of the Father who sent Me.
