Revelation 20:10, "And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever. 14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. 15And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire."
As I said, the idea of rternal torment in fire is a pagan concept and not a Biblical one.
look at verse 15 again
The claim that eternal torment in fire is a pagan concept rather than a biblical one invites a closer look at the Scriptures and the historical context. It's true that the phrase "forever and ever" in passages like Revelation 20:10 can be translated from the Greek "aionas ton aionon," which literally means "ages of ages." Critics argue that this translation could imply a finite period rather than infinite duration. However, traditional Christian interpretation, supported by many scholars, understands these terms to describe an eternal state of punishment, emphasizing the severity and permanence of the final judgment. Jesus frequently warned about Gehenna, describing it as a place of unquenchable fire (Mark 9:43-48), and the imagery of the undying worm and eternal fire suggests more than a temporary state.
Yeah, the second death. Not eternal torment. Death means to die, not to live.
The second death is eternal. However, the torment isn't. It's not called the second death because they're alive. They're dead.
The "second death" is understood as the final and eternal separation from God, as revealed in the Scriptures. The term "second death" is found in the book of Revelation. Revelation 20:14-15 (KJV) states, "And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire." This passage clearly indicates that the second death is not merely physical death but a far more significant and eternal consequence.
No ot doesn't. It says they'll cast into the Lake of Fire which is the Second Death. They'll die. It says nothing more than that
There is no such thing as spiritual death. The second death is just like the first one, physical. If it was different it wouldn't be the second one. They experience a second death because all will be resurrected. So. The wicked dead will be raised. They will die again because they are not given eternal life. Thus they die a second time.
Not at all. It's just like He said, they will suffer the second death.
Jesus is fully man. It's not possible to be fully 2 different things. John said, the Word became flesh.
No, someone is suggesting that the torment isn't eternal.
As I said, aion doesn't mean everlasting.
Revelation 21:8 (KJV): "But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death."
