Tested in the Lake of Fire

The King James Bible (KJV) says that most of mankind will be tormented in a lake of fire and brimstone. Is this true?

[@rprestarri]

Until Jesus Christ returns to Earth again in full Glory and Fire with the army of God behind him descending from Heaven to destroy the Anti Christ and his followers to instill Gods kingdom on Earth for 1000 years. Jesus will rule in power and glory for 1000 years with all who believed in him and gave their lives up for him. Then after that 1000 years Jesus will destroy the the Earth and Heavens with fire and throw Satan into the lake of Fire for eternity. God will create an entire new world where we will live in peace with God for eternity.

"The King James was not given by God but was a translation by a group of scholars in the early 17th century who based their rendition on a faulty Greek text." Bart Ehrman in his book "Misquoting Jesus".

[@tentmaker777]

"This man" simply asked the reader to compare English Bible translations. The FACT is they differ greatly. The Rheim's Duay translation has the word Hell 110 time, KJV, 54 times, NASB 13 times, Young's Literal, ZERO times. What's going on? Well, when one takes a careful look at Bible translations, it becomes obvious something is amiss. Some people then dig and study. Some are lazy and demand only one translation is "God's word" and trash everything else. "Study to show yourself approved."

+tentmaker777 Just wanted to give you an update of my situation and continual belief in "all-saved" and my belief as it has grown in my solitude. I go to Church and continue to love it; I get a bad 'taste' in my mouth each time eternal torment is brought up... which is surprisingly/gratefully seldom.... however if they knew of my new found belief... they would "ouster" me :) I think my discretion helps them in the long run. It is obvious to me now that Christ's death on the cross was effectual for all; that "realization" (belief) in this life; may or may not happen; but most assuredly will happen in the next. Very thankful to the Lord for this and also very glad that you are 'fighting the good fight'. I believe Jesus is coming soon. Praise God!

Lamentations 3 31 what is the right translation of lamentation 3 31

[@tentmaker777]

I'm not a Bible translation. Young's Literal renders it: "For the Lord doth not cast off to the Age." Rotherham's Emphasized says: Surely My Lord will not cast off unto times age-abiding." This two and several other translations believe the Hebrew word Olam should never be translated forever because it refers to time, not what we call "eternity" which is outside of time. Clearly traditional translations like the KJV, NIV, NASB have made some serious mistakes with Olam. They have Jonah in the belly of the earth FOREVER! That's an obvious mistake. During our Father's plan of the redemption of all mankind, He uses many olams, many ages. The Bible speaks of at least 7, maybe there are more before Jesus conquers all enemies and then delivers the kingdom to God the Father that He may be all in all. THEN we will experience what we conceive of as eternity, something outside and beyond what we call time, ages, eons, etc.

[@rodneyrose6483]

Well im probably never going to get saved so im turning to the bible to find out what my punishment for sin is going to be

[@tentmaker777]

Rodney, salvation depends upon from what point of view you are looking. If you saw from before the foundation of the world, you could see that you are already saved because the Lamb of God was slain from the foundation of the world. Or you could go to the cross and if you were in Christ when you heard "It is finished!" you could with confidence believe in your salvation. Or if you went to the place where Jesus conquered all His enemies, the last being death, then you could see Jesus delivering you to God the Father that He may be all in all. You could see your salvation from many points. When one enters the rest Jesus promised, you wouldn't stress about "getting saved." Salvation is simply believing Jesus did the work for you. As long as you try to add anything of yourself or what churches demand, then you won't have the confidence of faith to KNOW, Jesus loves you, has and will save you. I NOW I'm saved, I am being saved and I will be saved. Today is the DAY of salvation. You could KNOW you are saved this very moment if you enter Christ's finished work on the Cross.

[@miekwo]

I just watched this video via facebook and I agree with almost everything and LOVE it, but I have a question too. What about Rev. 20:10? Does that mean the devil will be 'tormented' (to see the value of what was thrown in...seeing what's inside and than 'purified'?? so the devil will be purified??? That part I don't understand.......what do you think???

[@tatianaG]

I know I am way late to the party... 8 years later... but if I can share some understanding I have... the devil is the flesh... satan means 'the adversary'... who or what is the adversary to the Spirit? Its the flesh. We are tried and tested in this life in Christ. Christ Himself is the Lake of Fire... Christ increasing as we (our flesh) decreases... He refines us as gold. 🙏🏻

From the little research I made, it looks like James Strong was involved with the revision of the KJV.

[@Panoramicromantic1]

I've seen your website and I liked some of what you present. I don't subscribe to universalism myself, but I agree that words like aion aionios and basanos have not been translated properly.

[@Panoramicromantic1]

@Charles Edward Cheese Mark 9:48 is pretty clear. So is Matthew 26:24. Also, just dealing with it on the human level, if one suggests that every person can sin however much they like but still be incorruptible, one is basically saying that human nature is infinitely good, despite one's actions, choices and intentions. This of course means that human nature is a godlike nature, i.e. that it is always basically good no matter how much evil it does. Something can only be purified when the basic substance is still inherently good. When one claims a human being can always be purified no matter how much evil they will and do, one is saying that the goodness of human nature is godlike in its substance. Basically, it can never sin enough to change its substance. This makes a created being God. There is really no other way to see it. It also introduces, and is the root of, modern satanism. Once you allow that a human being can never sin enough to be lost, one must also allow that Satan is also basically good and can never be truly lost. He is a created being just like human beings are. I've researched this subject enough to know this is exactly how modern satanism started. Universalism makes freewill nothing. It teaches that God will always make human beings and even Satan ultimately choose Him regardless of their personal choices, intentions and actions. There is a serious blasphemy in these ideas. This is abundantly clear to anyone who has any kind of discernment.

[@Panoramicromantic1]

[@admiralmurat2777]

You are coming to the knowledge of the truth. Pretty much it.

[@georgeforyan113]

He saved us from eternal death! Through faith in Christ, you will gain everlasting life for the bible tells us that the wages of sin is death, not an eternal torment raging in flames for all eternity. When Adam & Eve disobeyed God and fell into sin, now know the knowledge of good & evil, did he tell them they would die and forever be tormented in hell for all eternity? No, he did not! He told them they would die and return to the dust of the earth from which they were made. The bible outlines eternal death and eternal life and that is all. An eternity in hell came about with the doctrine that man has an immortal soul that can never die, borrowed from Greek rhetoric during the medieval ages. But in Ezekiel 18:4 tells us the soul can die. The word soul, derived from the Hebrew "nephesh" simply means a living being or one having life, but never having an immortal soul existing after death. Christ said, "I am the resurrection and the life" and that mostly settles the issue. Did this help answer your question?

[@tentmaker777]

Most Christians do NOT study the Greek and Hebrew. And no, the KJV is not Perfect. Tell me, do you read the Roman Catholic Apocrypha and consider it perfect?

[@georgeforyan113]

These people like Bill Wiese and others have good intentions by what they are saying, but good intentions concerning God and His plan of salvation for all mankind do not fit into the equations of such behavior. For example: Lazarus was dead for 4 days and when Jesus brought him forth out of the tomb, does the bible ever record anything where Lazarus may have told anybody where he was for 4 days? No it doesn't and remains silent on this issue! What about other instances where even the apostles raised some persons from the dead? Is there any comment in scripture identifying where these persons were during their stay in death? Remember Jesus told his disciple that Lazarus was dead and I will go and "awaken" him. Lazarus was asleep in death according to scripture and I would say, knew nothing of where he was. The bible never reveals anything of the sort and remains silent on this issue. Saul, king of Israel consorted a witch to bring forward Samuel from death, and he was condemned for such behavior and the kingship was taken from him. As Jesus once said, "Let the dead bury the dead." To say anything about the hereafter in death by biblical standards is forbidden and remains silent and it is not for any believer to not only sustain from such behavior....but even condemns it. Did this help to answer your question?

[@Jeffreykum]

@@georgeforyan113 Yes. People in the bible did not talk about experiences of the after life. A few near death Experiences might be true. You Armenian?

[@georgeforyan113]

No, I am not Armenian and I don't believe in these tales about people having a near death experiences just as much as I don't believe in apparitions of the Virgin Mary as told from the Catholics.

[@chrisnoe7272]

This is embracingly cringy. It sounds like this man has been reading too much, Robert Allin. This only makes sense to those who have a presuppositional grudge against the eternality of Hell's torment. The only good advice this man gives is at the end when he tells you to go study for yourself. Well, take this into consideration. He references Revelation 14:11, "And the smoke of their 'torment' ascends forever and ever." He asserts that the word torment is "actually" the Greek word for touchstone and runs with that as if it proves his position. There's a list of reasons why this is incoherent. For starters, the word βᾰ́σᾰνος can indeed mean touchstone; but it can also mean torment depending on the context it's used in. However, the word used for tormented is βασανίζω (basanizo) which is in the verb tense, and it definitely means tormented. But let's just say, for the sake of argument, that βασανίζω (basanizō) could also mean touchstone. Let's see if it fits the context. "He shall be (tormented or touchstone) with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb. 11 And the smoke of their (torment or touchstone) ascends forever and ever; and they have no rest day or night, who worship the beast and his image. Even if you made the leap from touchstone to testing, it still does not fit the context. This is heresy. Also, he mentioned something about the word Hell not being in many of the newer translations. That's because the original Old English meaning of the word hell was best understood as Hades or the grave. The King James translators ended up using this word as a catch-all term for three separate words Gehenna, Hades, and Tartarus. However, Hell should not have been used this way, but because it was the idea of Hell became conflated with Gehenna, which is the lake of fire. Over time Bible translators have realized it would be best to leave Hades untranslated and use the word Hell to translate the word Gehenna since the modern concept of Hell is associated more with the Lake of Fire than with Hades. This is just the nature of how words change, and the job of a translator is to use the best word that can give the full sense of what is being said by th author. There is no theological conspiracy here. Some of the most prominent Greek scholars are atheists.

[@alwaysadawg6488]

It is about purification. The Bible says that fire and brimstone are in the lake of fire. Brimstone is sulphur. If the fire was only to torture people, then what is the sulphur there for? Would fire not do an adequate job of burning people. Also, how can hell be eternal when Jesus himself described it as temporary and corrective. In the original Greek NT text, Jesus describes afterlife punishment as "aionion kolasin", which is properly translated as "age-lasting correction" or "age-lasting chastisement". Corrective punishment does not last forever. It is intended to improve the behavior and character of the offender so the offender will not do wrong again. What would be the point of trying to correct the character of an offender if you are going to torture them forever? If Jesus wanted to convey that afterlife punishment lasted forever, he would have called it "aidios timorion", which means "eternal retribution". If the punishment for sin is eternal torture and he took the punishment for our sins, why isn't Jesus being eternally tortured? Universal reconciliation is not heresy. For the first 500 years of Christianity, most Christians believed in the ultimate restoration of all people to God through Jesus Christ.

[@rodneyrose6483]

The bible talks about fire figuretive fire What is a figuretive fire

[@tentmaker777]

Well a good example is in Malachi in which the Levites would be cleansed by "refiner's fire" so that they could make a lawful sacrifice. Obviously, we are not talking about literal fire on physical bodies. Or when the Holy Spirit fell on the disciples' heads. Again we are not talking physical fire on physical heads. We are talking about the Holy Spirit and when that fire came upon the disciples, they testified of God's wonderful works, not their own. There are over 200 different types of figures of speech in the bible and thousands of different examples. Bible language is highly figurative and must be interpreted spiritually, not literally.

[@rodneyrose6483]

Why is gods punishment for the wicked as to be age during Why did they translated age during

[@tentmaker777]

Because punishment is NOT eternal; it's a mistranslation and it's time people begin to see that. Our major Bible translations contain some major problems, one of them being that a Hell of everlasting punishment is a lie, maybe one of the biggest lies Satan has planted in the church.

Psalm 92 7 proves universal salvation and salvation of all mankind to be a lie

[@tentmaker777]

First of all, quoting from a covenant which is dead and finished doesn't serve your purpose. The Old Covenant told you to kill sheep and goats for your sins, didn't it? Do you still offer animal sacrifices? Then there's the problem with the word Forever in that verse. It does NOT mean forever for the word Olam is used to describe many things in the Bible which are not forever. It's a mistranslation. Third of all, according to Jesus and Paul, we are ALL wicked, there is NONE righteous, no not one. So look in the mirror, point to your nose and say, "Shameful, shameful wicked, unrighteous person." Then you will be honest to the Old Covenant which is dead and finished. Now in the New Covenant, we are all made righteous by the blood of Jesus Christ. "In Adam All died, all were "wicked," even so, In Christ shall ALLLL be made alive." Rodney, may the scales from your eyes fall off so that you may truly know YOUR righteousness in Christ and may you see that the righteousness imputed to you as a gift will be given to all you call "wicked." Stop behaving wickedly and restore your brothers that you call wicked. Be Christlike, and stop playing the devil's advocate.

You matter and are loved, Jesus said to fear not because we are worth more than many sparrows, let me explain how forever punishment is not biblical, to the original language of the New Testament, (Koine Greek) in 1 Timothy 4:10 savior of “all people” and (especially) of those who believe, everyone lives forever not just the Christian’s, the word Aionon and it’s variations mean Age for punishment not forever, The iron smelting furnace He called the slavery in Egypt, the lake of fire is not literal, Jesus speaks of a prison and says, you won’t get out “until” you have paid the last penny, God is love, always, His punishments are always rooted in His nature of love and goodness, they serve justice and then He restores, as He said He will do to sodom in Ezekiel, about the worm will never die where people say is a place where they are forever tortured, Isaiah said it’s about corpses, (gehenna) never should have been translated “hell” earth judgement in the valley of hinnom, they sleep in hades, this idea of God torturing people in fire would never please Him, He would never let it happen, He doesn’t even find pleasure in the death alone of the wicked, when He lets destruction happen He is thinking about that beings forever, if He purges out the evil and then restores them, His ways are higher than ours, no amount of evil inside of His creation, could ever change who God is, He will always be the same loving being and things don’t get to Him the way they do to us, the word that is used to show them on the outside of the Kingdom (After) the lake of fire, the word is “Exo” used 63 times in the New Testament, never once for dead, always “Outside” God is love, never let that leave your sight, to understand Him, only Jesus can get us there, His death saved every single being from death, we need to repent still from sins, the righteous will be rewarded greater, He hates dishonest scales, God loves everyone, but those in Christ do not come into judgement, and inherit the Kingdom if they are worthy, the others will be individually judged, all different beings, not a one size fits all punishment, including satan and every different human, it’s unjust Universal Reconciliation is the truth.

Until we learn to stop worshiping a book called the Bible and learn to meet with our creator in the secret place of his presents we will never know him.

Matthew 6:4 & 6:6 & 6:18 The place where we take no thought about worldly things Matthew 6:25 & 6:25 & 27 & 28 & 31 & 34. The place where we ask in union with God's thoughts and words directly one on one with the one of pure inspiration, the Almighty himself who gives Wisdom and understanding to those who ask and diligently seek him by faith only. Hebrews 11:6 Inspiration is not limited to certain men who write words on paper because God"s words are Spirit and the true word of God is written on your heart as a everlasting truth .

I have a Hebrew-Greek study bible and so I looked up Isa. 4:14 in the original language and from the NIV, and the American Standard translations, the word hell you have in your bible is translated "grave" from the Hebrew word in its original language as "sheol." If you may like to know, the word hell in scripture did not come to us from any original wording or language from Hebrew, Aramaic, or Greek of which the bible was originally written. It is an old Nordic-Germanic word from paganism originally from the dead going to the "hall of death." In this Nordic fashion, hall was spelled and pronounced "hel' and as saying "hel of death." Wherever hell is written from the New Testament in scripture, its counterpart figure of speech is the Greek word Gehenna, which was a garbage pit outside of Jerusalem in the days of Jesus, and anything that entered into the fire of Gehenna was consumed, destroyed and perished. If Gehenna is an everlasting fire for all eternity, why isn't Gehenna tormenting souls at this present time? Today, Gehenna, also known as the "valley of Hinnom" is a beautiful garden. I have read and studied my bible in its original language and so I am not fooled! Did this have any answers for you?

I meant to say Isa. 5:14!

Sir, you are a liberal.

No, my dear, I am a born again, spirit baptized believer in the Son of God, the Lamb who takes away the sin of the world, Jesus Christ, savior of the world. In this earth's terms I'm not a liberal, moderate or conservative. I'm out of this world, the kingdoms of men. I'm a citizen of New Jerusalem and I don't play your politics...and you shouldn't either.
