1 | Are the "people" in Matt. 13 unsaveable? | Matt 13:36 | Wee Willy | 207747 | ||
Given: The Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost (Luke 19:10) However, in Matt. 13:10, when Jesus is asked why he speaks in parables, His answer seems to imply that He does so not to aid in the people in their understanding, but to confound it..."Otherwise they might see...hear...and understand... and turn and I would heal them." And this because "in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah." So, then, has Jesus written them off as unreachable and unsaveable? |

It seems clear to me from this and your other post that you believe that those who die without Christ in this life are later restored after the second judgement and enter heaven with the saved. If I'm wrong do correct me please. You cite verses such as rev 20:13 saying that death and Hades gave up the dead. However, just two versus later he tells us that these people were then judged and thrown into the lake of fire. They won't be getting a second chance and taught how not to sin. One key to understanding correct teaching on the eternal punishment of the lost is to understand that the "lake of fire" and hades is two different places. Whatever translation you are using is calling hades, hell. The real word is hades in verse 13. This is a temporary place until hades and all who are in it are then thrown into the lake of fire. Rev 20:14-15. Matthew 25:46 says that the lost were sent away to "eternal punishment." Not a time of punishment until restored. On another note, what Bible translation are you using? |
