1 | psalms... judgement chapter 1 verse 5 | Rev 20:15 | stjohn | 225669 | ||
Excuse me Ariel... I'm sorry But, the word just before destruction is everlasting. Now I'm not claiming to be an expert, but I think 'everlasting' means everlasting. So can you please give me some reasonable explanation, or even better, some other scripture that would give support for your conclusion that there is an end to it? Otherwise, I'm afraid I'd have to strongly differ, since to my knowledge, Scripture is pretty clear that hell, or the lake of fire, or destruction, or whatever else orthodoxy calls it, it is indeed everlasting, eternal punishment. -John p.s. I did note your question marks, so I'm assuming that you expected to be challenged. |

2 | psalms... judgement chapter 1 verse 5 | Rev 20:15 | ariel levin | 225676 | ||
My question marks were just that. I was questioning the point that was stated. Destroy - to tear down; demolish; to break up or spoil completely; ruin; to bring to total defeat; crush; to put an end to; do away with; to kill ... (www.yourdictionary.com) - so Destruction is to have (been) destroyed, to have (been) torn down, to have (been) demolished, etc. Everlasting - Lasting or enduring forever; exsisting or continuingwithout end (www.dictionary.net) So that which was stated in the creed, reads like it's a destruction in totality at one time of something that has nothing left to be revived or rebuilt, not something going on forever but something no longer there. That's what I was questioning. |
