Bible Texts:
THE WORD OF GOD:
Are The Lost In
Everlasting Punishment?
Daniel
12:2 NLT
Many
of those whose bodies lie dead and buried will rise up, some to
everlasting Life and some to shame and everlasting* disgrace.
*Everlasting-
Hebrew: Owlam (O-lawn): Eternity,
eternal, perpetual, without end.
Matthew
3:11,12 KJV
11 I
(John the baptist) indeed baptize you with water unto repentance. but
He (The Lord Jesus) that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose
shoes I am not worthy to bear: He shall baptize you with The Holy
Ghost, and with fire:
12
Whose fan is in His hand, and He will thoroughly purge His floor, and
gather His wheat into the garner; but He will burn up the chaff with
unquenchable* fire.
*Unquenchable-Greek: Asbestos (As-bes-tos): Not extinguished,
that is, perpetual: not to be quenched.
Matthew 25:41-46 KJV (Final Judgment)
41
Then shall He (The Son Of Man) say also unto them on the left hand,
Depart from Me, ye cursed, into everlasting* fire, prepared
for the devil and his angels:
42
For I was an hungered, and ye gave Me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye
gave Me no drink:
43 I
was a stranger, and ye took Me not in: naked, and ye clothed Me not:
sick, and in prison, and ye visited Me not.
44
Then shall they also answer Him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an
hungered, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison,
and did not minister unto thee?
45
Then shall He answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as
ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to Me.
46
And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the
righteous into life eternal.
*Everlasting-Greek: Aionios (Ahee-o-nee-os): Eternal, for
ever, everlasting.

Dictionary.Com
42
And whosoever shall offend one of these little ones that believe in
Me, it is better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck,
and he were cast into the sea.
43
And if thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to
enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into
the fire that never shall be quenched:
44
Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.
45
And if thy foot offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to
enter halt into life, than having two feet to be cast into hell, into
the fire that never shall be quenched:
46
Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.
47
And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out: it is better for thee to
enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes to
be cast into hell fire:
48
Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.
II
Thessalonians 1:7-9 KJV
7
And to you who are troubled rest with us, when The Lord Jesus shall
be revealed from heaven with His mighty angels,
8 In
flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that
obey not The Gospel Of Our Lord Jesus Christ:
9
Who shall be punished with everlasting* destruction*
from the presence of The Lord, and from the glory of His power;
*Everlasting-Greek: Aionios (Ahee-o-nee-os): Eternal, for
ever, everlasting.
*Destruction-Greek: Olothros (Ol-eth-ros): To destroy, ruin,
that is, death, punishment: destruction.
Jude
1:7,13 NLT
7
And don’t forget Sodom and Gomorrah and their neighboring towns,
which were filled with immorality and every kind of sexual
perversion. Those cities were destroyed by fire and serve as a
warning of the eternal* fire of God’s judgment.
13
They are like wild waves of the sea, churning up the foam of their
shameful deeds. They are like wandering stars, doomed forever to
blackest darkness.
*Everlasting-Greek: Aionios (Ahee-o-nee-os): Eternal, for
ever, everlasting.
Revelation
14:9-11 NLT
9
Then a third angel followed them, shouting, “Anyone who worships
the beast and his statue or who accepts his mark on the forehead or
on the hand
10
must drink the wine of God’s anger. It has been poured full
strength into God’s cup of wrath. And they will be tormented with
fire and burning sulfur in the presence of the holy angels and The
Lamb.
11
The smoke of their torment will rise forever* and ever, and
they will have no relief day or night, for they have worshiped the
beast and his statue and have accepted the mark of his name.”
*Forever-Greek:
Aion (Ahee-ohn): Eternal
(for) ever, without end.
Revelation 20:10 NLT
Then
the devil, who had deceived them, was thrown into the fiery lake of
burning sulfur, joining the beast and the false prophet. There they
will be tormented day and night forever* and ever.
*Forever-Greek: Aionios (Ahee-o-nee-os): Eternal, for ever,
everlasting.
Hell and the lake of fire, where hell will forever take up its
residence, are forever, without end.
Do you think that is why our Lord, spent a great deal of His time
warning us, not to go there.
And as to the remark, “ I don't believe in a god who would send
people there (hell).”
It may interest some to know, God has never sent anyone to hell!
Individuals, choose to go there, by themselves!
Joshua
24:15 KJV
And
if it seem evil unto you to serve The Lord, choose you this day
whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served
that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the
Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we
will serve The Lord.
The choice is ours, who will ye serve?
John
3:16-21 KJV
16
For God so loved the world, that He gave His Only Begotten Son, that
whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting
Life.
17
For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world; but
that the world through Him might be saved.
18
He that believeth on Him is not condemned: but he that believeth not
is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of The
Only Begotten Son Of God.
19
And this is the condemnation, that Light is come into the world, and
men loved darkness rather than Light, because their deeds were evil.
20
For every one that doeth evil hateth The Light, neither cometh to The
Light, lest his deeds should be reproved.
21
But he that doeth Truth cometh to The Light, that his deeds may be
made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
Wounded
For Me
Wounded for me, wounded for me,
There on the cross He was wounded for me;
Gone my transgressions, and now I am free,
All because Jesus was wounded for me.
Dying for me, dying for me,
There on the cross He was dying for me;
Now in His death my redemption I see,
All because Jesus was dying for me.
Risen for me, risen for me,
Up from the grave He has risen for me;
Now evermore from death’s sting I am free,
All because Jesus has risen for me.
Living for me, living for me,
Up in the skies He is living for me;
Daily He’s pleading and praying for me,
All because Jesus is living for me.
Coming for me, coming for me,
One day to earth He is coming for me;
Then with what joy His dear face I shall see,
Oh, how I praise Him—He’s coming for me!
