Thanks for asking.
CJ,
(standard disclaimer....I have not read all the posts in this thread)

Have you considered and determined that annilation is not part of the potential outcomes extending from every individual's free-will choices made throughout this life?

I find no available means to reconcile your position (quoted above) with:
And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.
and
There is one lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy: who art thou that judgest another?

In my understanding, I do not see renewal or restoration emerging from that which has been destroyed.

thoughts?
