One reason why
the Jehovah's Witnesses are wrong in their belief that the hell
mentioned in the Bible is not
eternal:
"The Son of man indeed goeth, as it is written of him: but woe to that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed!
good were it for that man if he had never been born."
[Mark 14:21 ]
If all the unsaved
have to look forward to is annihilation (not eternity in hell)
then Jesus would never had said the above statement. Annihilation
is not "punishment". A loving God would certainly punish
people in hell forever if that God loves righteousness and hates
sin as we read here in the Psalms: "The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of iniquity. Thou shalt destroy them that speak leasing: the LORD will abhor the bloody and deceitful man."
[Psalms 5:5-6] |
