THE FATE OF THE RIGHTEOUS AND THE WICKED

Delving into the substance of the texts of Scripture (Isaiah 11-3.10, 36.37; Romans 6.23, 2.6-7) can be clearly replaced its sharp contrast in the upcoming fate of the righteous and the wicked. The righteous are promised peace, blessing, eternal life, glory, honor, immortality. Wicked-grief, rage, anger, death and destruction.

In addition, the bliss of the righteous that they never pass away, and there shall be no end "(Luke 1.31-33, Dan 7.14).

As for the fate of the wicked, then told that they would face "punishment of fire forever", "eternal flour", "eternal damnation", "second death."

However, NOWHERE in Scripture nor said that burning and anguish continued without end or that it is "not will finish", as it is said about the Kingdom of God and the bliss of saveds out.

Did the word "forever" means infinity?

No, not always, and it is possible to confirm the words from the Bible:

It can refer to the natural life of man (Exodus 21.5-6, Deuteronomy 17-15.16).

In this case, the slave service ends with his death. In addition, very often the Eng-people use the word "forever", "forever", "forever": "Forever not to forget what you did for me".

Christ, speaking of the parable, pointed to the end of the century (Matthew 13.39-40). This century, for the existence of this world.

The expression "for ever and ever (Rev. 14.11) does not point to infinity, so that everyone will be retribution for him (Rev. 22.12).

The servant who knew his master's will, and was not ready and did not do according to his will,

bits will be many; and who knew and made worthy of stripes, shall be less than. And all who are given much, much will be required, and to whom much has been entrusted, even more will collect the actual.

Luke 12.47-48

The expression "a bit longer and less" clearly point to the different duration of time of judgment for the crimes. NOW, THEREFORE, MAY NOT BE INFINITE.

Similar expressions found in the books of the Old Testament (2 Kings, 38.5 12.10).

It can be seen that the word "age" denotes a PERIOD of REDEMPTION and their not making further worthy of punishment, and the word "forevermore" (or "forever") indicates that their and not afflicted by the will of the Lord will come in two or three times more in comparison with the previous answer. Because David was told "forever" because he knew that he should not do so.

Jude 7-from this text indicates that Sodom and Gomorrah are off until now.

Promised a wicked immortality and incorruption?

Immortality and incorruption promised the righteous (Romans, 1 Corinthians 15.52 2.7-53).

The wicked have been promised completely different:

Sows in the flesh their flesh sends a smoldering.

Galatians 6.8

Comparison of the conditions of the redeemed (Revelation 22.1-2, 7.16) and wicked (65.13, Rev. 21.7-8) shows:

-Infinite life of righteous because they will take on immortality and incorruption. They will have food, drink and everything necessary for existence.

-The wicked will reap the same smoldering, being thrown into the "Lake of fire". There they find neither food nor drink, nor home, but, AS STRAW (Small 4.1) will become the prey of fire that will swallow them.

WHETHER THEY CAN EXIST INDEFINITELY IN SUCH CONDITIONS?

OF COURSE, NOT!

The meaning of the word "unquenchable fire"

Unquenchable fire (long-term) is fire, which no one can extinguish.

Unrepentant sinners have become like objects, that will be destroying (the tares, winks to the straw, etc.). They are compared with the dried out branches, amputation of the tree (John 15.6). "Gehenna" is the name of a place near Jerusalem, intended for burning rubbish. There, in the Valley of the son of Hinnom, carted the debris and any carrion, and the fire devoured what not to eat the worm.

John the Baptist said the destruction of the wicked, comparing them with the mass of the straw. Similar expressions have the Old Testament prophet Jeremiah (Jeremiah 21.12, 17.27).

 

It follows that the unquenchable fire is a fire that will burn until the burn that is meant for burning.

4 Car 25.8-9-a fire kindled in Jerusalem is not extinguished until the destroyed city.

Mark 9.46-the destruction of the wicked compared with fire, which is maintained until the lights that must be burned. That fate will be the complete destruction of all, unrepentant sin.

Cleanse the universe of sin and the curse

The complete destruction of traces of sin ancient prophets foretold (Small 4.1-3, PS 36.20).

Still a bit and becomes the wicked: look at his place, and not his.

Psalm 36.10

Not only ungodly but also the instigator of sin and ungodliness-devil-will be turned into ashes (Ezek. 28.14, 18-19). This Act is described succinctly by the Prophet Obadiah:

Since the day of the Lord is near to all peoples: how you acted so behaved will with thee; Now your calls on your head. For as you drank on My Holy Hill, so all the Nations will always drink will drink, swallowed and would like them.

Obadiah 15-16

And there shall be damned; but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it, and His servants shall serve him.

Revelation 22.3

God wants to draw us to himself without the threat of pain and burning in the fire, and EXCLUSIVELY to HIS GREAT love.

 

We love him because he first loved us.

1 John 4.19
