A perfect example of what the unquenchable fire means is revealed in 1 King 18:33-38 where they poured tons of water over the altar of the sacrifice which was to be burned, and the fire "licked up" the water. No amount of water can put it out, while it burns. However, it will not burn forever.

@Denyyourself7 Thank you for this insight.

Wonderful.

Since youtube changed its format, all your scripture references are cut off at the bottom of the screen. Is there anything you can do on your end to reframe the video so the scriptures are visible again? By the way, I have your book on Kindle, and it's amazing. Bell's book is so vague hypothetical. Yours is meticulously based in scripture and research. The evidence you present is overwhelming. But more overwhelming is that so many still believe in a "loving" God who tortures billions eternally.

@nrolett Thanks for informing me of this. I will look into it.

Hebrews 9:27-28: "Just as people are destined to die once, and after that to face judgment, so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many; and he will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him."

From this we understand:

1) We die once. We are judged once.

2) Christ brings salvation for those who are waiting for him...only those who are waiting for him.

3) Judgment is not correction, but a concluding ultimate verdict.

There are principles about God’s judgment that Heb 9 does not address but is clear in other texts. See Is 26:9; Hab 1:12, Ps 66:10-12, Ro 11:33, Ja 2:13… etc. Yes, salvation comes to those awaiting Him in this age, but how can you conclude it won't await those awaiting Him in the next in judgment? Heb 9 does not state “only.” Judgment is “until” the last cent is paid. Mt 5:26. For much more evidence, read Hope Beyond Hell free online. May God open our eyes to His truth.

@cecadasong Yes, we can truly love Him because He can be totally confident that He first loved us and all those we love. What Peace! Thanks so sharing.

@thechrisiacovetti The Greek of "forever and ever" is literally "into the ages of the ages" and is referring to what will take place in the consummation ages of all time. Jesus said the judgment prison was "until" the last penny is paid in Mt 5:26 and that judgment is "measured" in Mt 7:2. "Until" and "measured" do not support a "forever" judgment. Neither does the justice of God. For much more Biblical evidence for this read "Hope Beyond Hell" - Amaz E book Kindle $1 or hopebeyondhelldotnet

Thank you for your work Gerry. My family and I are reading your book now. We have believed as you for years and it seems like the Internet is booming with those opening their eyes to God's truths. :)

@darkhorserunner The scripture does not say "only." "When your judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world learn righteousness." Isa 26:13 "Oh Lord, you have appointed them for judgment...you have marked them for correction." Hab 1:12. He refines us as silver, lays affliction on our backs. We go through fire, but He brings us to "rich fulfillment!" See Ps 66:10-12 Read Hope Beyond Hell for a comprehensive view of what judgment is. Not enough space here to adequately make my case.
