Regardless of the language...
Hebrew, Greek, English...Scripture reveals;
There IS a PLACE IN the Center of the Earth, reserved for UNSAVED living souls to go and Be Separated From God....AND WAIT (in extreme discomfort; torture).....UNTIL
Judgement Day.
Human men, have talked about this Place, tried to Imagine this Place, and used their Native Language to Describe this Place.
Gehenna is a description of what men...
Did see and compared it to Hell.
Men throwing their LIVING Children INTO blazing fires, (burning them to Death) IN the VALLEY of Hinnom on the edge of Jerusalem was a mans VISUAL compared to what they invisioned Hell would be Like.
Glory to God,
Taken
God never gave immortality to man, that is not scriptural. We need to read the scripture and understand. The wicked will not receive the truth, and certainly do not want to be with God, and will perish...
2 Thessalonians 2:8-12
"8 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:
9 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,
10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness."
The wicked will destroyed in the end like tares burned in the fire...
Matthew 13:39-40
"39 The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels.40 As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world."
They will receive the reward for their works at the end, they are not in hell with some pitchfork wielding devil....
Revelation 22:12
"12 And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be."
They will perish as they will be burned up and nothing will remain, just ashes.
Malachi 4:1-3
"1 For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the Lord of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch.2 But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall.3 And ye shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I shall do this, saith the Lord of hosts."
And the wicked do not burn forever, they will be consumed by the fire at the end and vanish like smoke....
Psalm 21:9
"9 Thou shalt make them as a fiery oven in the time of thine anger: the Lord shall swallow them up in his wrath, and the fire shall devour them."
Psalm 37:10
"10 For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be: yea, thou shalt diligently consider his place, and it shall not be."
Psalm 37:20
"20 But the wicked shall perish, and the enemies of the Lord shall be as the fat of lambs: they shall consume; into smoke shall they consume away.."
Isaiah 1:28
“And the destruction of the transgressors and of the sinners shall be together, and they that forsake the LORD shall be consumed”
They will receive the opposite of everlasting life and perish, or ceasing to exist....
John 3:16
"16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
