The CI-123

Image
Here are 123 texts from Genesis to Revelation that support Conditional Immortality, the teaching that only believers in Christ receive eternal life.  These verses reveal the "soul" can and will die and be destroyed, the penalty for sin is death, the nature of God's judgment and justice of His jurisprudence, that eternal life is the gift of God Who only has immortality, and that the final fate for unbelievers is the everlasting punishment of everlasting destruction - to perish in the second death in a fire that consumes.  Genesis 2:17: But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely DIE Genesis 3:19: till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto DUST shalt thou RETURN Numbers 24:20: His latter END shall be that he PERISH FOR EVER Deuteronomy 4:24: the Lord thy God is a CONSUMING fire Joshua 10:28: He UTTERLY DESTROYED, them, and all the SOUL...

Closing Argument: The Good Writer

Image
Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, is God a good writer?   Your answer to that question will answer this one: Is endless torment true?   Does the Bible teach such a thing? Our question is not, do Christians believe such a thing? We know they do. Our question is not, are there texts in the Bible that could be taken to mean such a thing. We know there are. But does the Bible actually say that the final fate of unbelievers will be eternal conscious torment? Could such a horrible thing be true? I’m confident that if you have thoughtfully considered the evidence presented, you have more than a little reasonable doubt.  For many years I accepted and taught that endless torment was true. Content that the Bible is authoritative, and being familiar with certain texts that seemed clear enough, I didn’t entertain any doubt at all. My closing argument is this: God is a good writer. That’s why I became convinced the Bible does not teach endless torment. If endless to...
