[34] Fate of the wicked in the parable-always destroyed, death, not tormented
• THEY WILL BURN UP like the useless chaff of wheat [Matthew 3:12, Luke 3:17]
• BURNED like weeds, tares and bad fish [Matthew 13:30-50]
• Like harmful plants will be rooted up [Matthew 15:13]
• Cut asunder like the unfaithful servant [Matthew 24:45-51]
• Cut down like useless fig tree [Luke 13:6-9]
• SLAIN (killed) like enemies [Luke 19:27]
• Cast out and KILLED like the unfaithful husbandman [Luke 20:9-17]
• Are BURNED UP like withered branches [John 15:6]
If the above language does not denote the utter destruction of the wicked, what language could God have used that would? None. Those who try to explain away the above would try to explain away any language that could be used.
[35] Fate of the wicked in the Old Testament (the fate of people and nations in this lifetime)
• "Behold the day comes, it burns as a furnace [see 2 Peter 3:10-12] and all the proud and all that work wickedness shall be stubble; and the day that comes SHALL BURN THEM UP, says the LORD of hosts, that IT SHALL LEAVE THEM NEITHER ROOT NOR BRANCH" [Malachi 4:1-3]. Probably said of the nation of Israel. Burn up a plant and leave it neither root nor branch and nothing will remain of it. Nothing will remain of the nation.
• The wicked "shall soon be cut down like the grass" [Psalms 37:2]
• "Shall be cut off...shall not be" [Psalms 37:9-10]
• "Will be as nothing" [Isaiah 41:11]
• "Become as if they has never existed" [Obadiah 16]
• "Shall perish...in smoke shall they consume away" [Psalms 37:20]
• "They shall be destroyed" [Psalms 37:38]. "Altogether destroyed" New Revised Standard Version
• Shall "melt away" [Psalms 112:10; 68:2]
• "But the way of the wicked will perish" [Psalms 1:6]
• "But all the wicked, He will destroy" [Psalms 145:20]
• "Whoever has sinned against Me, I will blot him out of My book" [Exodus 32:33]
• "The wicked is reserved to the day of destruction" [Job 21:30]
• "They are like the chaff which the wind drives away" [Psalms 1:4]
• Souls shall die [Genesis 3:3; Ezekiel 18:4; 13:19]
[36] Add to this the fact that Hell is not in the Bible, not the name or the concept; nothing is said about God tormenting anyone after the judgment; nothing is said about the wicked after the second death; and you have a clear picture of the fate of the wicked. GOD COULD NOT HAVE SAID IN HUMAN LANGUAGE ANY CLEARER OR STRONGER WHAT THE FATE OF THE WICKED WILL BE. If you think it could be said any more clearly, try it. You cannot do it. BETWEEN THE STATEMENTS OF THE INSPIRED WRITERS OF THE BIBLE ABOVE, AND THE UNINSPIRED TEACHING OF MEN, THERE IS AN ENORMOUS DISCREPANCY AND CONTRADICTION THAT CANNOT BE EXPLAINED AWAY.
Our choice is life or death [see Deuteronomy 30:19-20]. To live or die [Ezekiel 18:20], an eternal life in Hell forever being tormented by God is not one of our choices.
“But even if we are an angel from heaven should preach to you a gospel contrary to what we preached to you, let that one be accursed! As we have said before, so now I PRPEAT, if anyone preaches to you a gospel contrary to what you received, let that one be accursed” [Galatians 1:7-8]. Is there another time Paul said something so serious that he repeated it? If “the wages of sin is death” and someone preaches to you “the wages of sin is eternal life in torment” that one should be accursed of preaching a gospel contrary to that which Paul preached.
AFTER THE RESURRECTION
THE FATE OF THOSE WHO ARE IN CHRIST
[1] Eternal life [Romans 6:23]
[2]"Shall inherit eternal life" [Matthew 19:29]
[3] After the judgment they "shall go away into eternal life" [Matthew 25:46]
[4] Will "have eternal life" [John 3:5]
[5] Christ will raise them up on the last day [John 6:40]
[6] Will be immortal after the resurrection [1 Corinthians 15:51-56]
[7] Will have incorruption [1 Corinthians 15:42]
[8] Will have glory [1 Corinthians 15:43]
[9] Will be like Christ "We shall be like him; for we shall see him even as he is" [1 John 3:2]
[10] Are "heirs according to the hope of eternal life" [Titus 3:7]
[11] Will have a spiritual body [1 Corinthians 15:44]
[12] "And as we have borne the image of the earthly (The earthly flesh and blood body of Adam was made to live on this earth but it "cannot inherit the kingdom of God" 1 Corinthians 15:50), we shall also bear the image of the heavenly" (Shall be like the spiritual body of Christ for life in Heaven) [1 Corinthians 15:47-56]
[13] "Will never perish" [John 10:28]
[14] Forever with the Lord [1 Thessalonians 4:17]
[15] MANY MANSIONS IN MY FATHER'S HOUSE: "In my Father's house (Who is in Heaven Matthew 5:16; 5:45; 5:48; 6:1; 6:9; 7:21; 10:32-33) are many mansions...I go to prepare a place for you." (Where did Christ go to prepare a place for us? In the mansions in His Father's house in Heaven. "For it was not David who ascended into heaven, but himself says: 'THE LORD SAID TO MY LORD, SIT AT MY RIGHT HAND, UNTIL I MAKE YOUR ENEMIES A FOOTSTOOL FOR YOUR FEET.'" Acts 2:34-35) "And if I go and prepare a place for you, (A place in my Father's house in Heaven) I come again, and will receive you unto myself; that where I am there you may also be (With me in the place I go to prepare for you in My Father's house in Heaven [John 14:1-3]. But now I go unto him (unto My Father who is in Heaven) that sent me" ("The word-Christ who was with the Father in the beginning and has always been a heavenly being with God became flesh, and dwelt among us" John 1:14) [John 16:5]. He is no longer flesh, but has now gone back to Heaven to prepare a place for the saved and will come back for them. "He who overcomes, I will grant to him to sit down with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne" [Revelation 3:21]. Christ is now on His Fathers throne in Heaven where He went to prepare a place for us.
[16] FLESH AND BLOOD CANNOT INHERIT THE KINGDOM OF GOD: "And as we have borne the image of the earthy [flesh and blood], we shall also bear the image of the heavenly. Now this I say, brethren that FLESH AND BLOOD CANNOT INHERIT THE KINGDOM OF GOD; (Our bodies in the image of Adam made for this earth are not suitable for Heaven) neither do corruption inherit incorruption (Neither can our corruptible bodies in the image of Adam inherit in the heavenly realm). Behold, I tell you a mystery: We all shall not sleep, (Shall not die) but we shall all be changed, (ALL the saved that are asleep when Christ comes and ALL the saved that are alive) in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, (Raised in the heavenly image of Christ, not in the corruptible image of Adam which they had when they died). For this corruptible must put on incorruption, (This earthly body in the image of Adam must put on incorruption, a spiritual body in the image of Christ. Adam never had a spiritual body before or after he sined), and this mortal must put on immortality (This mortal body which is the body we now have must be changed to an immortal spiritual body which will not be the body of this earth which we now have). But, when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory" [1 Corinthians 15:50-54]. In this passage Paul is telling the Corinthians what their body will be after the resurrection.
• It cannot be "flesh and blood" for flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God [1 Corinthians 15:50].
• It cannot be a body of "corruption" in the image of Adam for a body of corruption cannot inherit incorruption [1 Corinthians 15:50-54].
• It cannot be the mortal body that we now have for this mortal body must put on immortality [1 Corinthians 15:53-54].
[17] "We that are alive, that are left unto the coming of the Lord, shall in no wise precede them that are fallen asleep. For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven, with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God; and the dead in Christ shall rise first; then we that are alive, that are left, shall together with them be caught up in the clouds (To meet Him in the air and will have a body not of this earth) to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall ever be with the Lord" [1 Thessalonians 4:16-17].
[18] "Beloved, now we are children of God, and it has not appeared as yet what we shall be. (We know what the image of Adam is for we now have it. His image was flesh and blood both before and after he sinned, and we know that we now have his image, a body of flesh and blood, but we do not now know what
