Eternal life as defined by the Bible is "knowing [the Father] the only true God and Jesus Christ, whom [he] sent" (John 17:3)

Remember on the day that Adam and Eve ate of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil they died.

In other words life without fellowship with God is not life at all.

Obviously, the souls of those in hell still exist. In Rev.20:12, the souls of all the dead (whether small, great, rich, poor etc) that had been burning for at the very least 1000 years will arise at the voice of Jesus to stand b/4 His white throne judgment, to be cast into the eternal fiery lake (the second death). This will not occur if the souls get destroyed immediately upon its arrival into hell. Furthermore, there will be no second death if the souls in hell get annihilated.

well, here is a problem for you:

the reward of going to heven, is ethernal life, there for, the punishment of going to hell, can't also be ethernal life.

God cant let evil souls create eternal havoc & chaos. Remember there is no time in the spiritual only eternity. Spirit bodies are not limited like human bodies & know everything. Evil souls will always have their sins before them knowing they deserve their punishment. Their torment will keep them confined in the Lake of Fire where there is no escape to corrupt again. Repent of your sins & turn to Jesus today while you are still alive, as after death, it is too late. Make the right choice & live.

And all those righteous translated people from Adam up until Jesus's second coming on Mt Olivet will return with Jesus when He destroys the antichrist & false prophet, then He will judge all nations as either goat nations or sheep nations (depending on how they treated Israel) & judge the wicked dead & alive placing them all in the Lake of Fire. The worm that never dies is the soul. Your soul is eternal..either eternally wicked or eternally righteous. That is why evil souls must be contained.

cont: Paradise is empty now, only Hell remains. When Jesus returned after those 3 days in the earth He appeared to the disciples & if you study those scriptures, it says that the graves were opened & the righteous dead were seen walking around & appeared to people during this time. Those were the people Jesus took with Him to Heaven. Also when the rapture happens, the remainder righteous dead that died after this will arise first, then meet the raptured saints in the sky to be forever with Jesus

Hell is not death, it's a place. Hell is located in the bowels of the earth. Across the gulf in between was paradise where all those righteous that died before the birth, death, resurrection of Jesus dwelled after they died. After Jesus died on the cross, he went down into hell for 3 days & got the keys from satan (as Jesus fulfilled the penalty for Adam & mankind for sin taking back dominion). Jesus also "took captivity captive" or redeemed the righteous dead & took them with Him to heaven.

Hell = grave.How did Abraham get to "paradise" without Jesus? If the "damned" are sent to a fiery, eternal torment when they die, then what is the logic of judging them a second time at the "Final Judgment"? Maggots are not immortal. They don't die because they turn into flies and lay eggs that hatch into more maggots.The fire will not be quenched but will burn itself out and the wicked will be ashes under our feet . Malachi 4:1-3 We need to study more for ourselves without man's interpretation.

Laqueyhornet has no clue. Lake of fire is the 2nd death, and death and hell are cast into it.
