Why Doth People Believe in Eternal Torture?

Why Doth People NOT Believe in Eternal Torture ?

When the Bible DOES teacheth it?

"And these will pay the penalty of eternal destruction, away from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of His power," (2 Thess. 1:9).

"Just as Sodom and Gomorrah and the cities around them, since they in the same way as these indulged in gross immorality and went after strange flesh, are exhibited as an example, in undergoing the punishment of eternal fire" (Jude 7).

These men are those who are hidden reefs in your love feasts when they feast with you without fear, caring for themselves; clouds without water, carried along by winds; autumn trees without fruit, doubly dead, uprooted; 13 wild waves of the sea, casting up their own shame like foam; wandering stars, for whom the black darkness has been reserved forever," (Jude12-13).

See ? I can provide proof, You cannot,

They have been fooled by their clergy, kickindevilbutt:

Hell in the OT is SHEOL, meaning the grave. The Pharisees and Sadducees argued if there was ever a resurrection from the Grave.

But when the Greek Septuagint was translated from Hebrew, the translators used Greek Mythology, hence the work HADES; its first appearance.

And it was expanded on to mean Purgatory, too.

BUT the wages of sin is DEATH, and that is an eternal punishment, not punishing.

It makes them happy to think that anyone who doesn't agree with them is going to be suffering for eternity.

And it makes a useful terrorist tactic - Do what I say or you'll be turned into a crispy critter.

Ooooooh, scary.

People teach all kinds of lies that aren't in the scriptures. They teach what they want the truth to be because they don't want to accept the real truth.

Maybe because they've been reading Dante´.
