How Does The Unbeliever Perish ?

[Scott Hutchinson]

Since we have threads here about UR,Destruction Of The Wicked And Eternal Punishment.
What say ye about how those who do not believe in Christ will perish ?
John 3:16 What is the nature of the perishment of the non-believer ?

Does that include some who are still walking around alive but they are heartless and have very little brain function?

well the punishment for sin is death. we all must die for sin.

mark 16 : 16 states that it is eternal condemnation
revelations declares death and hell will be cast into the lake of fire.

specifically for those who worship the beast and take his mark

And the smoke of their torment rises for ever and ever. There is no rest day or night for those who worship the beast and his image, or for anyone who receives the mark of his name."

and shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth."--Matt. 13:49,50.

Lazuras and the rich man
LUKE 16:22 "So it was that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels to Abraham's bosom. The rich man also died and was buried." (NKJV)
LUKE 16:23 "And being in torments in Hades, he lifted up his eyes and saw Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom." (NKJV)

for the wages of sin is death. we all die
But the Lord stated do not fear the one who can destroy the body, but one who can destroy the body and soul

Strongs no. 622 perish is to "destroy fully". To perish or lose. Destroy, die,.

The wages of sin is DEATH the gift of God eternal LIFE through Jesus Christ our Lord. Romans 6:23

Think "life". Then think the contrast between that and "death". Its the difference in having being and not having being.

The wicked will after going to the Gehenna fire pass into "outer darkness". Darkness is a scriptural metaphor for death.

Are you saying the wicked burn for a time and then die, as in, no longer aware?

Thats what I believe. Death means death. It is the opposite of life. None of us have immortality unless Jesus grants it to us.


Note that important truth:

2:6 Who will render to every man according to his deeds:
2:7 To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life: Rom. 2:6-7
