Hell

Shakesphere once commented that Hell is empty and that the devils are all here

 

I happen to agree with ole Bill. Even after we are supposedly converted and surrender our lives over to Christ we still sin... and sin still permiates the earth.

 

Sin on the earth is not hell

 

In some online forms, espousing Annihilism would get you banned.

Curious to see what happens here.

 

OK. You've got your responses. Now put up or shut up.

 

Good point. For example Matthew 10:28 makes the case that BOTH body AND soul are destroyed in fiery hell.

 

Uh no, no foundation in scripture and sounds very new agish

 

True. Rev 20 describes the fire-and-brimstone event John calls "the lake of fire" and all other writers call hell.. it is a supernatural event where all the wicked suffer for their sins and are "destroyed both body and soul" Matt 10:28

 

But you could hang out with extreme far left Rob Bell.

 

That is so far off as to be heretical.

 

You can be a saint and still have health problems, cancer, cerebral palsy, suffer from loss of work, a disability, starvation, homeless etc . The list is endless and it includes being robbed, raped, taken advantage of. For every good and charitable man there is a thousand or more who would steal your hearts blood if they could sell it for a profit and ten thousand who would sell your coat too for some money. Largely it’s a world of eat or be eaten, your money or your life. Thieves and liars, murderers & grifters. All men are more or less Judas, I repeat, more or less. So if this place isn’t hell then it certainly is it’s vestibule.

 

It doesn't make any such case at all. It says that we should fear him who is able to destroy the body and soul, not that the body and soul are destroyed.

Not to mention the question of what "destroy" means in that context.
