The Word On Eternal Anguish

And do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul; but rather be afraid of Him who can destroy both soul and body in hell (Gehenna). Matthew 10:28

What happens to the unsaved if the punishment of Hell is not eternal torment? It is simple, those fallen angels and all of the unsaved are burned up in the Lake of Fire and they simply no longer exist! It is exactly as Jesus taught us in Matthew, we are to fear God, Who is capable to destroy both body and soul! Jesus did not say to fear God Who is able to eternally torment, but Who is able to destroy.

But the wicked shall perish, and the enemies of the Lord shall be as the fat of lambs [that is consumed in smoke] and as the glory of the pastures. They shall vanish; like smoke shall they consume away. Psalm 37:20

FOR BEHOLD, the day comes that shall burn like an oven, and all the proud and arrogant, yes, and all that do wickedly and are lawless, shall be stubble; the day that comes shall burn them up, says the Lord of hosts, so that it will leave them neither root nor branch. Malachi 4:1

And you shall tread down the lawless and wicked, for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I shall do this, says the Lord of hosts. Malachi 4:3

Behold, they are like stubble; the fire consumes them. They cannot even deliver themselves from the power of the flame [much less deliver the nation ]. There is no coal for warming or fire before which to sit! Isaiah 47:14

As the cloud is consumed and vanishes away, so he who goes down to Sheol (the place of the dead) shall come up no more. Job 7:9

Drought and heat consume the snow waters; so does Sheol (the place of the dead) those who have sinned. Job 24:19

Our Father plainly tells us that the wicked shall vanish away as smoke, the Truth is that they shall consume away. The wicked shall be as stubble, they will have neither root nor branch left and they shall be ashes under our feet. None of these scriptures teach us of an eternal Hell of anguish, they all speak of the wicked simply being done away with, the cease to be. 

With this study also remember our studies on the Truth that not many are thrown into Hell.
