Do not get me wrong, I hope all children go to heaven. I also know for a fact the Holy Spirit entered my life at 8, I stop using the Lords name in vain in my life My life changed drasticly I had a reoccurring dream I was in my basement I heard lots of noise if I looked it was Satan. this happened several times till in my dream I keep saying God is stronger, I did not look and the dreams ended that night. Just my story, my life was much better. Okay, so if you're an annihilationist, you must believe that after a sinner dies and the body returns to dust, God will raise up from the dead those who rejected Him, and then annihilate them in the lake of fire. What purpose would that serve? They're already gone. And if their spirits are to cease existing, why not do that at the point of death? I'm having trouble understanding that line of thinking. Yep, the annihilationist belief sure sounds oxymoron. It sounds like they are encouraging people to sin because they won’t be held accountable since their body will eventually cease to exist. :wacko: The dilienation made is man is body, soul and spirit. When the body dies, his/her soul and spirit still exist. Annihilation states that the full trinity of man is destroyed! The scriptures fully teach that damnation is eternal. But is this just for demons?! Knowing God's goodness, some people believe that God will ultimately relent and stop eternal damnation for humans. But this is a catch 22 for a God who creates and doesn't un-create! I'm sure the argument could easily be made that one day in Hell could seem like an eternity!!! TR Youngs Literal Translation 18 and receive the kingdom do the saints of the Most High, and they strengthen the kingdom unto the age, even unto the age of the ages. Daniel 7:18 and the smoke of their torment doth go up to ages of ages; and they have no rest day and night, who are bowing before the beast and his image, also if any doth receive the mark of his name. Revelation 14:11 If God puts the wicked there, it is because there is no other place in the universe for them. Neither would the ungodly be at home in the presence of God. Same expression, different groups. Why would the saints receive the kingdom for "ages of ages" or eternity, and with the lost have the same words mean "temporarily"?
