[quote:Anonymous Coward 1421776:MV8xNTQ5NzA4XzI1NTkyNDgxXzgxREYzRURG] Eternal flames and damnation is not fair for many lifetimes of evil. But it will seem like eternity for those who are punished. [/quote]
Original Message
It drives me crazy that people think that Hell is Eternal Torture. It makes people not accept Christianity because some folks actually get excited about people burning forever and ever.
I believed the same thing before, but not anymore. If you're willing to invest 15-20 minutes I can prove it yo you through the Bible. Links coming.
" God calls the state of the ungodly the “second death.” But we presume to edit God and tell people they will not really die, but that they will live on in constant agony and torture. Jesus clearly taught us to “not be afraid of those who can kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can DESTROY BOTH SOUL AND BODY IN HELL” (Matthew 10:28). Jesus uses the word “destroy.” We correct him, as well as God and the Holy Spirit, and substitute the words “live on and on and on.” Whom shall students of God’s word believe? God’s word even makes a distinction between the soul and the body and hints that we need to fear the God who can “destroy” both. He didn’t say to “fear him who can torment and torture the soul and/or body.” He didn’t say to “fear him who can inflict pain to the soul and/or body unendingly without mercy.”
