>>THE DEVIL ISN'T DOWN
THERE SOMEWHERE IN THE MOLTEN,
00:01:11.40\00:01:14.60
UNDER THE GROUND. WHEN
GOD SAYS, IN THE BOOK OF
00:01:14.60\00:01:16.77
JOB, 'SATAN,
WHERE'D YOU COME FROM?'
00:01:16.77\00:01:18.24
HE DOESN'T SAY, 'I CAME FROM A
HOLE IN THE EARTH', HE SAID, 'I
00:01:18.24\00:01:20.51
CAME FROM WALKING TO
AND FRO ON THE EARTH.'

00:01:37.09\00:01:46.40
>>TONIGHT'S STUDY IS, I THINK,
ONE THAT IS NOT ONLY ONE THAT IS
00:01:46.40\00:01:49.07
VERY IMPORTANT, BUT IT COULD
REVOLUTIONIZE YOUR PICTURE OF
00:01:49.07\00:01:51.11
GOD AS IT DID FOR ME.
00:01:51.11\00:01:54.44
AND LET ME GIVE YOU JUST A
LITTLE PERSONAL TESTIMONY THAT
00:01:54.44\00:01:57.28
WILL HELP LEAD INTO WHAT WE'RE
GOING TO TALK ABOUT TONIGHT.
00:01:57.28\00:02:00.55
I MENTIONED EARLIER, WHEN I
SHARED MY TESTIMONY, I WENT TO
00:02:00.55\00:02:04.99
ABOUT 14 DIFFERENT SCHOOLS
AND, AMONG THOSE SCHOOLS, WERE A
00:02:04.99\00:02:08.86
COUPLE OF
DIFFERENT CHRISTIAN SCHOOLS.
00:02:08.86\00:02:11.63
AND I REMEMBER HEARING WHAT
MANY OF US HAVE HEARD - THAT IF
00:02:11.63\00:02:16.30
YOU'RE GOOD, WHEN YOU DIE YOU GO
TO HEAVEN; AND IF YOU'RE BAD AND
00:02:16.30\00:02:21.70
YOU DIE, YOU GO TO THE OTHER
PLACE WHERE THERE IS MOLTEN
00:02:21.70\00:02:28.64
SULPHUR AND BURNING BRIMSTONE
AND ALL THE EXPERIENCE OF EVERY
00:02:28.64\00:02:33.75
SQUARE CENTIMETER OF YOUR BODY
IN FLAMES - NOT FOR A MOMENT,
00:02:33.75\00:02:39.25
BUT FOR ETERNITY - YOU WILL
EXPERIENCE BLISTERING, BURNING
00:02:39.25\00:02:45.83
MISERY. AND I
THOUGHT, 'WOW, GOD IS A
00:02:45.83\00:02:53.13
SADIST.' JUST
TELLING YOU WHAT I THOUGHT.
00:02:53.13\00:02:55.94
I SAID - HERE I AM, TEN YEARS
OLD - I MEAN, YOU KNOW, I WAS
00:02:55.94\00:02:59.44
YOUNG BUT I
COULD THINK IT THROUGH.
00:02:59.44\00:03:01.28
I SAID, 'HE MADE ME. NO
ONE ASKED ME IF I WANTED TO
00:03:01.28\00:03:05.38
BE MADE.' IT SEEMS LIKE
EVERYBODY'S GOT THIS PROPENSITY
00:03:05.38\00:03:09.92
TO DO THINGS WRONG - ESPECIALLY
A TEN-YEAR-OLD BOY, RIGHT?
00:03:09.92\00:03:13.52
- 'AND IF I SHOULD DIE NOW, I
WILL BE TORTURED ETERNALLY.' AND
00:03:13.52\00:03:20.66
I SAID, 'HOW CAN I
LOVE A GOD LIKE THAT?
00:03:20.66\00:03:25.10
AND IN MY HEART, I THOUGHT,
'IF THERE'S A GOD LIKE THAT' -
00:03:25.10\00:03:27.50
FORGIVE ME, I SAY THIS JUST TO
BE HONEST - I THOUGHT, 'I HATE
00:03:27.50\00:03:32.11
HIM.' I THOUGHT, 'HE'S
CRUEL.' BECAUSE I WOULDN'T DO
00:03:32.11\00:03:36.28
THAT TO MY DOG
AND I WAS PRETTY BAD.
00:03:36.28\00:03:41.45
WHEN I FINALLY LEARNED WHAT THE
BIBLE REALLY TEACHES ABOUT THIS
00:03:41.45\00:03:45.15
SUBJECT, IT WAS SO LIBERATING
FOR ME, IT ENABLED ME TO TRUST
00:03:45.15\00:03:49.39
AND TO LOVE GOD.
NOW, JUST - BEFORE ANYONE
00:03:49.39\00:03:53.80
CHANGES THE CHANNEL OR
SAYS, 'OH, PASTOR DOUG DOES NOT
00:03:53.80\00:03:56.23
BELIEVE IN HELL OR
THE LAKE OF FIRE.' I DO.
00:03:56.23\00:04:01.70
PEOPLE ARE WRONG ABOUT HOW LONG
HELL BURNS AND WHEN IT BURNS.
00:04:01.70\00:04:08.81
SO WE'RE GOING TO STUDY
THAT FROM THE BIBLE NOW AND OUR
00:04:08.81\00:04:11.48
LESSON TONIGHT IS LESSON NUMBER
10 AND IT'S TITLED THE FINAL
00:04:11.48\00:04:15.92
FIRESTORM . THE FINAL FIRESTORM.
IT BEGINS WITH A STORY THAT WE
00:04:15.92\00:04:21.59
KNOW FROM GENESIS CHAPTER
13, THAT TALKS ABOUT LOT.
00:04:21.59\00:04:26.73
ORIGINALLY, ABRAHAM AND LOT WERE
TOGETHER WITH THEIR SHEEP, BUT
00:04:26.73\00:04:30.47
BECAUSE THEY HAD SO MANY SHEEP
AND THEY - THE SHEPHERDS WERE
00:04:30.47\00:04:34.70
FIGHTING WITH EACH OTHER,
ABRAHAM SAID, 'YOU KNOW, WE
00:04:34.70\00:04:37.14
PROBABLY OUGHT TO SPLIT THINGS
UP.' AND LOT LOOKED DOWN AT THE
00:04:37.14\00:04:40.01
VALLEY OF SODOM AND IT SAYS IT
WAS WATERED LIKE THE GARDEN OF
00:04:40.01\00:04:44.21
GOD, BACK THEN. IT
WAS A BEAUTIFUL PLACE.
00:04:44.21\00:04:47.18
ABRAHAM, HE SHOOK HIS HEAD
BECAUSE IT SAYS IN THE BIBLE -
00:04:47.18\00:04:51.09
GENESIS 13:13 - "THE MEN OF
SODOM WERE EXCEEDINGLY WICKED."
00:04:51.09\00:04:58.29
FINALLY, GOD SENT THE ANGELS
DOWN - YOU KNOW THE STORY - TO
00:04:58.29\00:05:01.46
SODOM TO RESCUE LOT
BEFORE HE DESTROYS IT.
00:05:01.46\00:05:06.43
AND THEY SAID, GENESIS 19, VERSE
17 - "ESCAPE FOR YOUR LIFE!
00:05:06.43\00:05:12.11
DO NOT LOOK BEHIND THEE...ESCAPE
TO THE MOUNTAINS, LEST YOU BE
00:05:12.11\00:05:16.24
CONSUMED...THEN THE LORD RAINED
UPON SODOM AND UPON GOMORRAH
00:05:16.24\00:05:23.62
BRIMSTONE AND FIRE FROM
THE LORD OUT OF HEAVEN."
00:05:23.62\00:05:29.19
THIS IS A REAL EVENT THAT
HAPPENED AND THERE IN THAT VERY
00:05:29.19\00:05:32.06
REGION WHERE THEY TELL US THEY
EXISTED, THEY CAN FIND - ONLY
00:05:32.06\00:05:34.36
PLACE IN THE WORLD - JUST
PEPPERED IN THE GROUND ARE THESE
00:05:34.36\00:05:38.93
SULPHUR BALLS - THAT WHEN THEY
HIT THE GROUND, SOME OF THEM
00:05:38.93\00:05:41.94
JUST EXTINGUISHED THEMSELVES ON
IMPACT AND IMBEDDED THEMSELVES
00:05:41.94\00:05:44.17
IN THE ASH AND
ARE STILL THERE TODAY.
00:05:44.17\00:05:47.31
NOW WHAT HAPPENED TO SODOM AND
GOMORRAH, THE BIBLE SAYS, IS AN
00:05:47.31\00:05:51.98
ILLUSTRATION OF WHAT WILL HAPPEN
TO THE WICKED IN THE LAST DAYS.
00:05:51.98\00:05:55.82
IT SAYS, "AND GOD, TURNING
THE CITIES OF SODOM AND GOMORRAH
00:05:55.82\00:06:00.19
INTO ASHES, CONDEMNED THEM WITH
AN OVERTHROW, MAKING THEM AN
00:06:00.19\00:06:06.16
EXAMPLE UNTO THOSE THAT AFTER
SHOULD LIVE UNGODLY." BY THE
00:06:06.16\00:06:10.30
WAY, WHAT HAPPENED TO SODOM AND
GOMORRAH IS AN EXAMPLE OF WHAT'S
00:06:10.30\00:06:13.60
GOING TO HAPPEN TO THE WICKED
IN THE LAST DAYS. WHEN WILL THE
00:06:13.60\00:06:17.67
WICKED BE DESTROYED IN HELLFIRE?
2 PETER CHAPTER 2, VERSE 9, "THE
00:06:17.67\00:06:23.55
LORD KNOWETH HOW TO...RESERVE
THE UNJUST UNTO THE DAY OF
00:06:23.55\00:06:27.88
JUDGMENT TO BE PUNISHED."
IF THEY'RE BEING RESERVED FOR
00:06:27.88\00:06:32.72
PUNISHMENT TIL THEN, WOULD THEY
BE BURNING IN A LAKE OF FIRE
00:06:32.72\00:06:36.26
NOW? >>NO.
00:06:36.26\00:06:37.99
>>NO, BECAUSE
JUDGMENT HASN'T HAPPENED.
00:06:37.99\00:06:40.46
RESURRECTION
HASN'T HAPPENED, RIGHT?
00:06:40.46\00:06:42.46
JESUS SAID, JOHN 12:48, "...THE
WORD THAT I HAVE SPOKEN, THE
00:06:42.46\00:06:46.74
SAME SHALL JUDGE HIM" - HE'S
TALKING ABOUT THE LOST - "IN THE
00:06:46.74\00:06:49.80
LAST DAY." THE
JUDGMENT HAPPENS WHEN?
00:06:49.80\00:06:52.94
THE LAST DAY.
FURTHERMORE, YOU CAN READ -
00:06:52.94\00:06:55.61
JESUS TELLS A PARABLE -
MATTHEW CHAPTER 13, VERSE 40 -
00:06:55.61\00:06:58.48
"AS THEREFORE THE TARES" - THOSE
ARE WEEDS - "ARE GATHERED AND
00:06:58.48\00:07:02.58
BURNED IN THE FIRE; SO SHALL
IT BE IN THE END OF THIS WORLD.
00:07:02.58\00:07:09.49
THE SON OF MAN SHALL SEND
FORTH HIS ANGELS, AND THEY SHALL
00:07:09.49\00:07:12.63
GATHER....THEM WHICH DO
INIQUITY; AND SHALL CAST THEM
00:07:12.63\00:07:16.36
INTO A FURNACE OF
FIRE." IS IT HAPPENING NOW? NO.
00:07:16.36\00:07:20.24
IF THE WICKED WHO HAVE DIED ARE
NOT YET IN HELL, THEN ACCORDING
00:07:20.24\00:07:26.34
TO THE BIBLE, WHERE ARE
THEY? LET THE BIBLE TELL US.
00:07:26.34\00:07:30.11
JESUS SAID - JOHN 5:28 AND 29 -
"...THE HOUR IS COMING" - THAT'S
00:07:30.11\00:07:35.72
FUTURE TENSE, RIGHT? - "IN
THE WHICH ALL THAT ARE" - WHERE?
00:07:35.72\00:07:38.79
- "IN THE GRAVES SHALL HEAR HIS
VOICE, AND SHALL COME FORTH;" -
00:07:38.79\00:07:43.96
THEN HE DESCRIBES THE TWO
RESURRECTIONS - "THEY THAT HAVE
00:07:43.96\00:07:46.43
DONE GOOD, UNTO THE RESURRECTION
OF LIFE; AND THEY THAT HAVE DONE
00:07:46.43\00:07:48.40
EVIL, UNTO THE
RESURRECTION OF DAMNATION."
00:07:48.40\00:07:50.27
THAT'S THE SECOND RESURRECTION.
THAT'S WHEN THEY GET THEIR
00:07:50.27\00:07:53.13
REWARD. THE HOUR
IS COMING WHEN THEY'LL
00:07:53.13\00:07:55.37
BE REWARDED. IT'S IN THE FUTURE.
00:07:55.37\00:07:57.17
IT SAYS, "THE WICKED IS RESERVED
TO THE DAY OF DESTRUCTION, YET
00:07:57.17\00:08:03.48
HE WILL BE
BROUGHT TO THE" - WHERE?
00:08:03.48\00:08:05.58
- "THE GRAVE AND
WILL REMAIN IN THE TOMB."
00:08:05.58\00:08:09.82
THEY'RE ASLEEP. YOU
CAN PUT R.I.P - REST IN
00:08:09.82\00:08:13.46
PEACE - ON ANY GRAVE BECAUSE,
UNTIL THE JUDGMENT, THEY'RE
00:08:13.46\00:08:16.42
AWARE OF NOTHING. ISN'T
THAT WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS?
00:08:16.42\00:08:19.76
QUESTION #4 - START AT THE
BEGINNING - WHAT IS THE REWARD
00:08:19.76\00:08:24.30
OR PUNISHMENT FOR
SIN? WHAT DID GOD SAY?
00:08:24.30\00:08:28.50
ROMANS 6:23, "FOR THE WAGES
OF SIN IS DEATH; BUT THE GIFT OF
00:08:28.50\00:08:35.58
GOD IS ETERNAL LIFE
THROUGH JESUS CHRIST OUR LORD."
00:08:35.58\00:08:38.98
YOU REMEMBER IN THE BIBLE, WHEN
GOD SAID TO ADAM AND EVE, 'DO
00:08:38.98\00:08:43.79
NOT EAT THE FORBIDDEN FRUIT OR
YOU WILL DIE.' THE PENALTY FOR
00:08:43.79\00:08:47.39
THAT SIN WAS DEATH. THE
DEVIL SAID TO EVE, THROUGH
00:08:47.39\00:08:51.83
THE SERPENT - SHE SAID, 'OH, GOD
SAID IF WE EAT IT WE'LL DIE -
00:08:51.83\00:08:55.16
GOD SAID WE'LL DIE.' AND THE
DEVIL SAID, 'DON'T BELIEVE GOD,
00:08:55.16\00:08:58.07
YOU'LL NOT REALLY
DIE. YOU'RE IMMORTAL.
00:08:58.07\00:09:01.50
YOU'LL EITHER LIVE FOREVER IN
HEAVEN OR YOU'LL LIVE FOREVER IN
00:09:01.50\00:09:04.01
HELL, BUT YOU CAN'T DIE.
YOU'LL BE LIKE GODS.' SEE THE
00:09:04.01\00:09:06.71
DEVIL TRIED TO INSTILL
WITHIN MAN WHAT HE DESIRES.
00:09:06.71\00:09:09.88
THE DEVIL IS
CONSUMED WITH THE TRUTH.
00:09:09.88\00:09:12.78
IT TEARS HIM UP THAT HE IS NOT
GOD AND THAT HE IS NOT IMMORTAL.
00:09:12.78\00:09:16.95
EVEN THE DEVIL HAS AN END.
SO, GOD SAID, EVEN AFTER MAN
00:09:16.95\00:09:21.12
SINNED, 'WE NEED TO DRIVE MAN
FROM THE GARDEN, LEST HE PUT OUT
00:09:21.12\00:09:24.63
HIS HAND AND TAKE ALSO OF THE
TREE OF LIFE AND EAT AND LIVE
00:09:24.63\00:09:28.70
FOREVER.' WAS MAN
EVICTED FROM THE GARDEN?
00:09:28.70\00:09:32.03
>>YES. >>THEN WE DON'T HAVE THAT
00:09:32.03\00:09:33.74
IMMORTALITY. WE ARE
- HE SAYS HE'S GOING TO
00:09:33.74\00:09:36.97
DIE. SINNERS DO
NOT LIVE FOREVER.
00:09:36.97\00:09:39.84
WHAT ARE THE ONLY TWO CHOICES
FOR ALL MEN? IT'S VERY SIMPLE.
00:09:39.84\00:09:44.15
NOQ THE STRONGEST VERSE TO PROVE
THIS POINT IS THE MOST POPULAR
00:09:44.15\00:09:49.15
VERSE IN THE
BIBLE. WHAT IS THAT?
00:09:49.15\00:09:51.72
>>JOHN 3:16. >>JOHN 3:16.
00:09:51.72\00:09:53.39
WHY DON'T YOU SAY IT
WITH ME? "THAT WHOSOEVER
00:09:53.39\00:09:56.86
BELIEVES IN HIM SHOULD NOT
PERISH BUT HAVE EVERLASTING
00:09:56.86\00:10:02.60
LIFE." THIS TRANSLATES
THE SAME IN ANY LANGUAGE.
00:10:02.60\00:10:04.93
WHAT DID JESUS DO
ON THE CROSS? >>DIED.
00:10:04.93\00:10:07.77
>>IF THE PENALTY FOR SIN IS
ETERNAL BURNING, THEN JESUS DID
00:10:07.77\00:10:13.24
NOT PAY THE FULL PRICE ON
THE CROSS BECAUSE HE'S NOT STILL
00:10:13.24\00:10:15.78
BURNING, IS HE? THE PENALTY
FOR SIN IS DEATH. JESUS DIED.
00:10:15.78\00:10:19.58
THE PENALTY FOR SIN
IS NOT ETERNAL TORMENT.
00:10:19.58\00:10:21.92
QUESTION #6: WHAT WILL HAPPEN
TO THE WICKED IN HELLFIRE?
00:10:21.92\00:10:26.55
PSALMS 37 - HERE'S OUR ANSWER -
VERSE 10 AND VERSE 20 - "FOR YET
00:10:26.55\00:10:31.39
A LITTLE WHILE, AND THE WICKED
SHALL NOT BE...BUT THE WICKED
00:10:31.39\00:10:35.76
SHALL PERISH...INTO
SMOKE THEY SHALL CONSUME AWAY."
00:10:35.76\00:10:41.37
WHAT KIND OF WORDS CAN WE USE
THAT ARE BETTER TO EXPLAIN THESE
00:10:41.37\00:10:44.54
THINGS? LOOK IN MALACHI
CHAPTER 4, VERSES 1 AND 3.
00:10:44.54\00:10:48.48
THE BIBLE SAYS, "...THE DAY
COMETH, THAT SHALL BURN AS AN
00:10:48.48\00:10:51.81
OVEN; AND ALL...THAT DO
WICKEDLY, SHALL BE STUBBLE: AND
00:10:51.81\00:10:55.42
THE DAY THAT COMETH
SHALL BURN THEM UP."
00:10:55.42\00:11:00.09
NOW WHEN SOMETHING'S
BURNT UP, WHAT'S LEFT?
00:11:00.09\00:11:02.49
"AND YE SHALL TREAD DOWN THE
WICKED; FOR THEY SHALL BE ASHES
00:11:02.49\00:11:05.69
UNDER THE SOLES OF YOUR FEET."
WHERE WILL HELLFIRE BE LOCATED?
00:11:05.69\00:11:11.47
YOU CAN READ IN REVELATION
20, VERSE 9 - IT SAYS, "AND THEY
00:11:11.47\00:11:15.67
WENT UP ON THE BREADTH OF THE
EARTH, AND COMPASSED THE CAMP
00:11:15.67\00:11:19.64
OF THE SAINTS ABOUT." SO
BEFORE GOD RAINS THAT FIRE
00:11:19.64\00:11:22.71
AND BRIMSTONE DOWN, WHERE -
WHERE IS THE DEVIL AND ALL THE
00:11:22.71\00:11:26.15
FORCES OF GOG AND MAGOG -
ALL THE WICKED? ON THE EARTH.
00:11:26.15\00:11:30.15
AND IT SAYS, "AND FIRE CAME DOWN
FROM GOD OUT OF HEAVEN, AND" -
00:11:30.15\00:11:35.09
WHAT? - "DEVOURED THEM."
WHERE IS IT? ON THE EARTH.
00:11:35.09\00:11:37.93
YOU CAN READ IN 2 PETER CHAPTER
3, VERSE 10, "...THE ELEMENTS
00:11:37.93\00:11:41.86
SHALL MELT WITH" -
WHAT KIND OF HEAT? -
00:11:41.86\00:11:45.07
>>FERVENT HEAT.
>>"FERVENT HEAT, THE EARTH ALSO
00:11:45.07\00:11:47.20
AND THE WORKS THAT ARE
THEREIN SHALL BE BURNED UP."
00:11:47.20\00:11:49.97
AND YET, HOW MANY OF US HAVE
HEARD, 'HELL IS SOMEWHERE DOWN
00:11:49.97\00:11:53.88
YONDER'? RIGHT? THE
DEVIL ISN'T DOWN THERE
00:11:53.88\00:11:58.15
SOMEWHERE IN THE
MOLTEN, UNDER THE GROUND.
00:11:58.15\00:12:00.75
WHEN GOD SAYS, IN THE BOOK
OF JOB, 'SATAN, WHERE'D YOU COME
00:12:00.75\00:12:03.15
FROM?' HE DIDN'T
SAY, 'I CAME FROM A
00:12:03.15\00:12:04.45
HOLE IN THE EARTH.' HE SAID, 'I
CAME FROM WALKING TO AND FRO ON
00:12:04.45\00:12:07.12
THE EARTH.' I'LL TELL
YOU WHY PEOPLE GET THAT IDEA.
00:12:07.12\00:12:11.56
IT OFTEN TALKS ABOUT DESCENDING
INTO HELL, IN THE BIBLE, AND
00:12:11.56\00:12:14.76
THOSE TERMS ARE - MANY OF THEM
- ARE FROM HEBREW. IT'S A WORD
00:12:14.76\00:12:19.97
CALLED SHEOL IN THE OLD
TESTAMENT AND IT MEANS GRAVE.
00:12:19.97\00:12:24.47
THE WORD THAT YOU FIND IN THE
OLD TESTAMENT FREQUENTLY - THOU
00:12:24.47\00:12:27.68
WILL NOT LEAVE MY SOUL IN HELL
- THAT TRANSLATES SHEOL - THAT
00:12:27.68\00:12:31.85
JUST MEANS GRAVE.
THAT'S ALL IT MEANS.
00:12:31.85\00:12:33.42
FOUR WORDS IN THE BIBLE ARE
TRANSLATED FOR HELL: SHEOL, IN
00:12:33.42\00:12:37.52
THE OLD TESTAMENT; IN THE
NEW TESTAMENT YOU'VE GOT THREE.
00:12:37.52\00:12:40.52
YOU'VE GOT GEHENNA, WHICH WAS
A VALLEY OUTSIDE OF JERUSALEM
00:12:40.52\00:12:43.83
CALLED THE VALLEY OF HINNOM.
YOU'VE GOT HADES, WHICH COMES
00:12:43.83\00:12:47.36
FROM GREEK MYTHOLOGY,
AND YOU'VE GOT TARTARUS -
00:12:47.36\00:12:50.13
IT'S ONLY USED ONE TIME
IN THE WRITINGS OF PETER.
00:12:50.13\00:12:52.77
GEHENNA WAS THE CITY DUMP - THE
VALLEY OF HINNOM - THEY USED TO
00:12:52.77\00:12:58.44
HAVE IDOLS THERE AND SO THEY
DECIDED TO MAKE IT A CITY DUMP
00:12:58.44\00:13:00.74
BECAUSE THEY HAD WORSHIPED PAGAN
IMAGES DOWN THERE AND ALL OF THE
00:13:00.74\00:13:05.15
REFUSE WAS PUT IN THERE AND THEY
- WHEN AN UNCLEAN ANIMAL DIED IT
00:13:05.15\00:13:08.18
WENT TO GEHENNA AND THEY HAD
THEIR OLD BASKETS THERE AND OLD
00:13:08.18\00:13:12.15
CLOTH THERE AND EVERY NOW AND
THEN SOMEONE WOULD THROW THEIR
00:13:12.15\00:13:14.59
ASHES OUT THERE AND IT WAS
SMOLDERING BECAUSE THEY STILL
00:13:14.59\00:13:18.19
HAD HOT COALS IN IT. SO
THEY LET IT BURN - IT WAS
00:13:18.19\00:13:20.90
GOOD - IT KEPT THE GASSES DOWN
AND IT HELPED CONSUME THINGS.
00:13:20.90\00:13:24.27
ANY OF YOU EVER BURN GARBAGE?
AND SO JESUS IS REFERENCING -
00:13:24.27\00:13:27.47
ONE OF HIS REFERENCES TO HELL
HE TALKS ABOUT A PLACE WHERE THE
00:13:27.47\00:13:30.21
WORM DOES NOT DIE AND
THE FIRE IS NOT QUENCHED.
00:13:30.21\00:13:32.31
IT WAS FULL OF WORMS AND DEAD
BODIES AND MAGGOTS AND IT WAS
00:13:32.31\00:13:35.24
SMOLDERING AND - THAT'S GEHENNA.
THAT'S THE WORD THAT HE USES
00:13:35.24\00:13:38.45
FOR GEHENNA.
QUESTION #8: WILL THE DEVIL BE
00:13:38.45\00:13:41.98
IN CHARGE OF HELLFIRE? NO.
REVELATION 20:10, "AND THE DEVIL
00:13:41.98\00:13:47.66
THAT DECEIVED THEM WAS CAST INTO
THE LAKE OF FIRE AND BRIMSTONE."
00:13:47.66\00:13:53.66
YOU CAN SAY 'AMEN'
THERE. THAT'S GOOD NEWS.
00:13:53.66\00:13:56.36
I MEAN, IF ANYONE DESERVES
TO GO THERE, HE DOES, RIGHT?
00:13:56.36\00:14:00.07
HE STARTED ALL THE
PROBLEMS. HE'S NOT IN CHARGE.
00:14:00.07\00:14:03.61
A LOT OF WHAT HAS COME INTO
CHRISTIANITY TRICKLED IN FROM
00:14:03.61\00:14:09.18
THE GRECO-ROMAN RELIGIONS
BECAUSE CHRISTIANITY ABSOLUTELY
00:14:09.18\00:14:13.75
EXPLODED IN GROWTH IN THE ROMAN
EMPIRE, DURING THE TIME OF PAUL.
00:14:13.75\00:14:20.09
I MEAN, EVEN PAUL SAYS THE
GOSPEL'S BEEN PREACHED TO EVERY
00:14:20.09\00:14:23.26
CREATURE. THE CHURCH
GREW SO QUICKLY - PENTECOST -
00:14:23.26\00:14:25.73
THOUSANDS WERE BAPTIZED.
MIRACLES WERE HAPPENING.
00:14:25.73\00:14:28.66
AND A LOT OF THE PAGANS
WERE ONLY HALF CONVERTED.
00:14:28.66\00:14:31.47
THEY CAME IN AND, NOT BEING
PROPERLY TAUGHT, THEY TRIED TO
00:14:31.47\00:14:34.20
MIX UP THE TRUTHS FROM THE WORD
OF GOD ABOUT THE DEVIL AND HELL
00:14:34.20\00:14:39.37
AND THEY GOT IT MIXED UP WITH
GREEK MYTHOLOGY AND PLUTO AND
00:14:39.37\00:14:42.21
HADES AND SOME OF THOSE
THINGS STAYED FOR YEARS.
00:14:42.21\00:14:47.22
BUT IT'S NOT A BIBLICAL THING,
IT'S A GREEK MYTH THAT FOUND ITS
00:14:47.22\00:14:50.52
WAY INTO THE CHRISTIAN CHURCH.
NOWHERE IN THE BIBLE DOES IT SAY
00:14:50.52\00:14:53.32
THE DEVIL'S IN
CHARGE OF HELL, DOES IT? NO.
00:14:53.32\00:14:56.42
QUESTION #9: WILL THE
FIRES OF HELL EVER GO OUT?
00:14:56.42\00:14:59.96
THIS IS THE - THIS IS A BIG
QUESTION WHERE I WANT TO SPEND A
00:14:59.96\00:15:03.16
MOMENT. ISAIAH 47, VERSE 14.
00:15:03.16\00:15:06.17
IT SAYS, "...THERE SHALL NOT BE
A COAL TO WARM AT, NOR FIRE TO
00:15:06.17\00:15:12.57
SIT BEFORE IT." IT
SAYS YOU'LL GO FORTH - THE
00:15:12.57\00:15:16.38
WICKED ARE ASHES UNDER
THE SOLES OF YOUR FEET.
00:15:16.38\00:15:18.25
AFTER GOD RAINS THAT FIRE DOWN
FROM HEAVEN UPON THE WICKED, IT
00:15:18.25\00:15:22.95
FORMS A LAKE
OUTSIDE THE CITY OF GOD.
00:15:22.95\00:15:25.75
BUT, ULTIMATELY, IT GOES OUT.
IT SAYS YOU'LL GO FORTH AND YOU
00:15:25.75\00:15:29.26
TREAD UPON THE WICKED BECAUSE
THEY ARE ASHES UNDER THE SOLES
00:15:29.26\00:15:32.39
OF YOUR FEET. BLESSED
ARE THE MEEK - THEY WILL
00:15:32.39\00:15:34.96
INHERIT WHAT? >>THE EARTH.
00:15:34.96\00:15:36.80
>>THE EARTH. IT'S
THE MEEK ARE WALKING OUT.
00:15:36.80\00:15:38.57
I HEARD A PASTOR SAY ONE
TIME, 'TODAY SHEEP GRAZE WHERE
00:15:38.57\00:15:41.80
DINOSAURS THUNDERED. AND
CHRISTIANS WILL WALK WHERE
00:15:41.80\00:15:46.31
THE WICKED ONCE RULED.' THE
MEEK WILL INHERIT THE EARTH.
00:15:46.31\00:15:49.64
QUESTION #10: ARE BOTH THE SOUL
AND THE BODY DESTROYED IN HELL?
00:15:49.64\00:15:54.78
NOW, IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE PASTOR
DOUG, WILL YOU BELIEVE PASTOR
00:15:54.78\00:15:57.95
JESUS? SOME PEOPLE SAY,
'WELL, DOUG, YOU'RE RIGHT.
00:15:57.95\00:16:01.76
THE BODIES DON'T BURN FOREVER,
BUT THE SOULS BURN FOREVER.'
00:16:01.76\00:16:05.39
I'VE HEARD SOME PEOPLE SAY THAT.
OH, LET'S SEE WHAT JESUS SAID.
00:16:05.39\00:16:07.83
MATTHEW 10:28, HE SAID, "FEAR
NOT THEM WHICH KILL THE BODY,
00:16:07.83\00:16:12.90
BUT ARE NOT ABLE TO KILL THE
SOUL: BUT RATHER FEAR HIM WHICH
00:16:12.90\00:16:17.37
IS ABLE TO
DESTROY" - TO DO WHAT? -
00:16:17.37\00:16:20.94
"DESTROY BOTH SOUL AND BODY
IN HELL." WHAT DID JESUS SAY?
00:16:20.94\00:16:28.62
HE SAID FEAR THE ONE WHO
COULD DESTROY SOUL AND BODY.
00:16:28.62\00:16:31.22
HE SAID DON'T FEAR THE DEVIL, HE
CAN ONLY HURT YOUR BODY, BUT GOD
00:16:31.22\00:16:33.36
IS THE ONE WHO CAN
DESTROY SOUL AND BODY IN HELL.
00:16:33.36\00:16:37.69
AND THAT'S WHAT WE SHOULD FEAR.
NOW WHAT'S LEFT WHEN THE SOUL
00:16:37.69\00:16:41.76
AND BODY ARE GONE? NOTHING.
FOR WHOM WILL HELLFIRE BE
00:16:41.76\00:16:46.53
KINDLED? MATTHEW
CHAPTER 25, VERSE 41 -
00:16:46.53\00:16:50.11
JESUS, WHEN HE SEPARATES
THE SHEEP FROM THE GOATS IN THIS
00:16:50.11\00:16:53.01
PARABLE HE SAYS TO THE WICKED,
"DEPART FROM ME, YE CURSED, INTO
00:16:53.01\00:16:55.91
EVERLASTING FIRE, PREPARED
FOR THE DEVIL AND HIS ANGELS."
00:16:55.91\00:17:02.22
'WELL, THERE YOU HAVE IT,
PASTOR DOUG: EVERLASTING FIRE.
00:17:02.22\00:17:05.09
IT SAYS IT'S GOING TO LAST
FOREVER.' STAY WITH ME, WE'LL
00:17:05.09\00:17:08.49
GET TO THAT IN A MINUTE.
00:17:08.49\00:17:09.99
BUT IS THE DEVIL IN CHARGE
OF HELL OR DOES IT SAY THAT HE -
00:17:09.99\00:17:14.63
HELL IS PREPARED
FOR HIM AND HIS ANGELS.
00:17:14.63\00:17:17.40
SO IT'S NOT JUST SATAN, ALL
THE FALLEN ANGELS AND THE DEMONS
00:17:17.40\00:17:20.17
THAT FOLLOWED HIM, THEY'RE GOING
TO GET THAT SAME PUNISHMENT.
00:17:20.17\00:17:23.71
HOW DOES THE BIBLE REFER TO
GOD'S DESTRUCTION OF THE WICKED?
00:17:23.71\00:17:28.74
IS IT SOMETHING HE ENJOYS? NO.
00:17:28.74\00:17:32.08
ISAIAH CHAPTER 28, VERSE 21, IT
SAYS, "FOR THE LORD...SHALL BE
00:17:32.08\00:17:37.19
WROTH...THAT HE MAY DO HIS WORK,
HIS STRANGE WORK; AND BRING TO
00:17:37.19\00:17:41.79
PASS HIS ACT, HIS STRANGE ACT."
SOMEONE ASKED EARLIER IN ONE OF
00:17:41.79\00:17:46.46
THE QUESTIONS, 'HOW
CAN A GOD OF LOVE DESTROY?'
00:17:46.46\00:17:49.03
DOES HE ENJOY THAT?
DOES GOD LIKE DESTROYING?
00:17:49.03\00:17:53.34
REMEMBER WHEN GOD DESTROYED
THE WORLD IN THE DAYS OF NOAH?
00:17:53.34\00:17:55.07
HE USED WATER. ARE
THEY STILL DROWNING TODAY OR
00:17:55.07\00:17:57.94
ARE THEY GONE? HE
SAID, 'NEXT TIME I'LL DO IT
00:17:57.94\00:18:01.51
WITH FIRE.' BUT HE'S GOING
TO DESTROY THE WORLD AGAIN.
00:18:01.51\00:18:04.05
BUT IT SAYS IT GRIEVED GOD
AT HIS HEART THAT HE MADE MAN.
00:18:04.05\00:18:09.02
HE WAS NOT HAPPY ABOUT WHAT HE
HAD TO DO, IT BROKE HIS HEART.
00:18:09.02\00:18:11.65
GOD WANTS TO MAKE
LIFE. HE WANTS TO SAVE LIFE.
00:18:11.65\00:18:14.29
IF YOU DOUBT THAT,
WHY DID JESUS COME?
00:18:14.29\00:18:15.96
BECAUSE HE'S
DESPERATE TO SAVE US.
00:18:15.96\00:18:18.26
WHEN HE HAS TO DESTROY THE
LOST, KNOW YOU DO NOT LOVE YOUR
00:18:18.26\00:18:23.60
CHILDREN MORE THAN
GOD LOVES HIS CHILDREN.
00:18:23.60\00:18:25.90
IT HURTS GOD INFINITELY MORE
THAN IT WOULD HURT ANY EARTHLY
00:18:25.90\00:18:31.04
PARENT TO HAVE TO TAKE
THE LIFE OF THEIR OWN CHILD.
00:18:31.04\00:18:34.51
JESUS IS A LOVER OF
GOOD. HE IS A LOVER OF LIFE.
00:18:34.51\00:18:39.91
HE WANTS TO GIVE LIFE.
I'LL TELL YOU A QUICK STORY.
00:18:39.91\00:18:43.79
WHEN I LIVED UP IN THE
MOUNTAINS, I TOLD YOU I LIVED IN
00:18:43.79\00:18:47.16
A CAVE FOR ABOUT A YEAR AND
A HALF AND I COOKED ON A FIRE
00:18:47.16\00:18:51.66
EVERY DAY. AND I
REMEMBER, ONE NIGHT - I
00:18:51.66\00:18:55.60
HAD A CAT UP THERE - I THINK
I SHOWED YOU A PICTURE, IF YOU
00:18:55.60\00:18:58.00
WERE HERE, OF MY CAT STRANGER.
AND I NEVER BOUGHT CAT FOOD.
00:18:58.00\00:19:01.77
EVERY NOW AND THEN I'D THROW
HIM A LITTLE SOMETHING, BUT HE
00:19:01.77\00:19:03.94
PRETTY MUCH TOOK CARE OF HIMSELF
BECAUSE HE WAS A GOOD HUNTER.
00:19:03.94\00:19:06.84
ONE NIGHT, I WAS COOKING MY
DINNER; STRANGER HAD CAUGHT A
00:19:06.84\00:19:09.84
LITTLE KANGAROO RAT. NOW,
YOU KNOW, CATS ARE A LITTLE BIT
00:19:09.84\00:19:13.58
SADISTIC. THEY LIKE
TO PLAY WITH THEIR FOOD.
00:19:13.58\00:19:16.42
AND THAT POOR LITTLE DAZED
KANGAROO RAT, HE TRIED TO BOUNCE
00:19:16.42\00:19:19.69
AND HOP AWAY AND HE HOPPED RIGHT
INTO THE FIRE. NOW I - IT NEVER
00:19:19.69\00:19:26.66
FAILS TO GET A GASP FROM THE
AUDIENCE WHEN I TELL THAT STORY.
00:19:26.66\00:19:30.90
HERE YOU ARE, I'M TELLING
YOU ABOUT THIS LITTLE MOUSE THAT
00:19:30.90\00:19:34.04
WENT INTO THE FIRE, AND IT JUST
BREAKS YOUR HEARTS, DOESN'T IT?
00:19:34.04\00:19:36.40
THAT LITTLE THING - JUST
THE IDEA OF THE LITTLE RAT
00:19:36.40\00:19:38.67
SUFFERING. NOW IT
SEEMED LIKE A LONG TIME
00:19:38.67\00:19:42.04
BUT I WATCHED IT, YOU KNOW, IT
JUST - IT SQUEAKED AND WRITHED
00:19:42.04\00:19:45.25
FOR PROBABLY TWO OR THREE
SECONDS AND IT STOPPED - AND IT
00:19:45.25\00:19:48.85
PROBABLY EVEN HURTS YOU
TO THINK ABOUT THAT. A MOUSE.
00:19:48.85\00:19:51.95
YOU DON'T WANT IT TO HAPPEN TO
A MOUSE AND YET, MANY CHRISTIANS
00:19:51.95\00:19:57.53
BELIEVE THAT GOD IS GOING TO
DO THAT AND MUCH WORSE TO HUMANS
00:19:57.53\00:20:00.10
FOREVER. THINK ABOUT
THAT. AND, YOU KNOW, IF YOU SAY
00:20:00.10\00:20:04.87
ANYTHING AGAINST IT PEOPLE SAY,
'YOU DON'T BELIEVE THE BIBLE!'
00:20:04.87\00:20:07.27
SURE YOU DO. NOW,
THERE ARE SOME VERSES THAT
00:20:07.27\00:20:09.27
ARE CONFUSING AND
WE'RE GOING TO GET TO THOSE.
00:20:09.27\00:20:11.37
QUESTION #13: DOESN'T THE
BIBLE PHRASE UNQUENCHABLE FIRE
00:20:11.37\00:20:15.78
INDICATE THAT THE
FIRE NEVER GOES OUT?
00:20:15.78\00:20:18.65
WELL, NO. WHAT
DOES IT MEAN TO QUENCH?
00:20:18.65\00:20:23.72
QUENCH IS A VERB
THAT MEANS TO EXTINGUISH.
00:20:23.72\00:20:27.56
LET ME GIVE YOU AN EXAMPLE:
INTERPRET THE BIBLE WITH THE
00:20:27.56\00:20:31.19
BIBLE. THERE'S A RULE.
LET THE BIBLE BE ITS OWN
00:20:31.19\00:20:34.36
EXPOSITOR. IT
DOESN'T CONTRADICT ITSELF.
00:20:34.36\00:20:36.46
YOU CAN READ, FOR INSTANCE, IN
MATTHEW CHAPTER 3, VERSE 12, IT
00:20:36.46\00:20:40.84
SAYS, "HE WILL THOROUGHLY PURGE
HIS FLOOR, AND GATHER HIS WHEAT
00:20:40.84\00:20:44.44
INTO THE GARNER; BUT HE WILL
BURN UP" - WHAT DOES BURN UP
00:20:44.44\00:20:48.51
MEAN? GONE -
"HE WILL BURN UP THE
00:20:48.51\00:20:51.71
CHAFF" - SPEAKING OF THE WICKED
- "WITH UNQUENCHABLE FIRE."
00:20:51.71\00:20:55.42
THAT MEANS NO ONE IS GOING TO BE
ABLE TO EXTINGUISH THE FIRE THAT
00:20:55.42\00:20:58.99
GOD IS GOING TO USE
TO PUNISH THE WICKED.
00:20:58.99\00:21:01.96
HAVE YOU EVER SEEN - THE HOUSE
CATCHES ON FIRE - OR HEAVEN
00:21:01.96\00:21:04.69
FORBID IF A PERSON'S CLOTHES
CATCH ON FIRE WHILE THEY'RE
00:21:04.69\00:21:07.30
COOKING? QUICKLY YOU QUENCH IT.
00:21:07.30\00:21:09.13
BUT THERE'LL BE NOBODY
QUENCHING THE LAKE OF FIRE.
00:21:09.13\00:21:13.74
ARE WE GOING TO SIT ON THE WALLS
OF THE NEW JERUSALEM AND LOOK
00:21:13.74\00:21:16.64
OUT ON THE WICKED
BURNING THROUGH CEASELESS AGES -
00:21:16.64\00:21:19.77
EATING POPCORN
FOR ENTERTAINMENT?
00:21:19.77\00:21:22.01
(LAUGHTER) THAT'S SOME IDEA -
SOME PEOPLE THINK THAT GOD HAS A
00:21:22.01\00:21:27.38
TORTURE CHAMBER SOMEWHERE WHERE,
YOU KNOW, YOU PAY ADMISSION YOU
00:21:27.38\00:21:32.29
GET TO WATCH THE WICKED
BURN. YOUR ENEMIES - YEP.
00:21:32.29\00:21:34.99
THEY'RE STILL BURNING.
FOREVER AND EVER AND EVER.
00:21:34.99\00:21:37.13
NO, WHEN IT SAYS THAT THE FIRE
IS NOT QUENCHED, IT SIMPLY MEANS
00:21:37.13\00:21:42.66
THERE ARE NOT GOING TO
BE ANY FIREMEN IN HELL.
00:21:42.66\00:21:46.67
THERE IS NOBODY GOING AROUND -
NO FIREFIGHTERS PUTTING OUT THE
00:21:46.67\00:21:49.70
FIRE. NOBODY
EXTINGUISHING THE FIRE.
00:21:49.70\00:21:52.71
THEY ARE GOING TO BURN,
UNINTERRUPTED UNTIL THEY ARE
00:21:52.71\00:21:56.71
CONSUMED. THAT'S
THE WORD THAT IS USED.
00:21:56.71\00:21:59.95
IF YOU QUENCH A FIRE BEFORE IT
STOPS - YOU PUT OUT A LOG BEFORE
00:21:59.95\00:22:03.42
IT'S BURNED UP, YOU
CAN BURN IT AGAIN LATER.
00:22:03.42\00:22:06.15
GOD IS SAYING WHAT HAPPENS
TO THE WICKED IS - THERE IS NO
00:22:06.15\00:22:09.36
ESSENCE LEFT. IT IS BURNED UP.
00:22:09.36\00:22:11.09
MATTER OF FACT, MALACHI
4: IT LEAVES THEM NEITHER
00:22:11.09\00:22:13.43
ROOT NOR
BRANCH. NOTHING IS LEFT.
00:22:13.43\00:22:15.86
QUESTION #14: DOESN'T THE PHRASE
EVERLASTING FIRE MEAN UNENDING?
00:22:15.86\00:22:22.14
LET'S FIND OUT WHAT THE WORD
MEANS, AGAIN, LETTING THE BIBLE
00:22:22.14\00:22:26.61
INTERPRET ITSELF. JUDE 7, "EVEN
AS SODOM AND GOMORRAH...ARE SET
00:22:26.61\00:22:31.58
FORTH FOR AN EXAMPLE, SUFFERING
THE VENGEANCE OF ETERNAL FIRE."
00:22:31.58\00:22:37.12
THE FIRE THAT BURNED THE CITIES
OF SODOM AND GOMORRAH BURNT THEM
00:22:37.12\00:22:40.42
UP. THERE IS NOTHING LEFT
ANYMORE. THE RESULTS OF THE FIRE
00:22:40.42\00:22:43.96
OF THE WICKED ARE ETERNAL.
THAT'S WHAT IT'S SAYING.
00:22:43.96\00:22:47.86
GOD IS SAYING 'SIN IS A DEADLY
CONTAGIOUS DISEASE. I LOVE YOU.
00:22:47.86\00:22:51.43
I DON'T WANT YOU TO PERISH, BUT
THE DISEASE IS GOING TO TAKE YOU
00:22:51.43\00:22:54.47
IF YOU DON'T COME TO ME.'
HE'LL HAVE NO ALTERNATIVE.
00:22:54.47\00:22:59.27
HE CAN'T LET IT SPREAD AMONG HIS
OTHER CHILDREN IN THE UNIVERSE.
00:22:59.27\00:23:02.38
IT'S GOING TO BREAK HIS HEART.
BUT THE WICKED WILL BE PUNISHED.
00:23:02.38\00:23:05.21
THERE IS A LAKE OF FIRE, BUT IT
DOESN'T BURN FOREVER AND EVER.
00:23:05.21\00:23:08.72
QUESTION #15: WHEN REVELATION
20, VERSE 10 SAYS THAT THE
00:23:08.72\00:23:12.99
WICKED WILL BE TORMENTED FOREVER
AND EVER, DOESN'T THAT INDICATE
00:23:12.99\00:23:15.82
ENDLESS TIME? NOW
THIS IS ONE OF THE VERSES
00:23:15.82\00:23:20.10
THAT I WILL ADMITTEDLY SAY
CAUSES PEOPLE SOME CONCERN.
00:23:20.10\00:23:23.43
AGAIN, LET THE
BIBLE INTERPRET ITSELF.
00:23:23.43\00:23:26.00
IT SAYS THAT YOU COULD HAVE A
HEBREW SLAVE; AT THE END OF SIX
00:23:26.00\00:23:29.47
YEARS, IF YOUR SLAVE LOVED YOU
AND HE WANTED TO STAY, YOU WENT
00:23:29.47\00:23:32.57
THROUGH THIS RITUAL AND IT
SAID HE WILL SERVE HIM FOREVER.
00:23:32.57\00:23:36.11
HOW LONG DID THAT
MEAN? UNTIL HE DIED.
00:23:36.11\00:23:38.41
WHEN HANNAH BROUGHT SAMUEL
TO THE TEMPLE SHE SAID, 'HE WILL
00:23:38.41\00:23:41.52
ABIDE HERE FOREVER.'
HOW LONG DID THAT MEAN?
00:23:41.52\00:23:45.09
UNTIL HE DIED. IN 1
SAMUEL 1:28 SHE EXPLAINS IT
00:23:45.09\00:23:49.22
HERSELF AND SAYS,
'AS LONG AS HE LIVES'.
00:23:49.22\00:23:50.93
THE TERM 'FOREVER' MEANT FOR
THE REMAINDER OF YOUR EXISTENCE.
00:23:50.93\00:23:55.13
SO WHEN IT TALKS ABOUT THE
WICKED BURNING FOREVER AND EVER,
00:23:55.13\00:23:58.43
THE WORD THERE
USED IN GREEK IS EON.
00:23:58.43\00:24:00.57
FOREVER AND EVER IS A BIBLICAL
EXPRESSION WHICH MEANS UNTIL THE
00:24:00.57\00:24:03.61
END OF THE AGE, NOT NECESSARILY
AN INFINITE UNENDING LENGTH OF
00:24:03.61\00:24:08.91
TIME. QUESTION
#16: AFTER SIN AND
00:24:08.91\00:24:12.18
SINNERS ARE DESTROYED, WHAT
WILL JESUS DO FOR HIS PEOPLE?
00:24:12.18\00:24:15.95
YOU CAN READ HERE IN 2
PETER CHAPTER 3, VERSE 13,
00:24:15.95\00:24:19.62
"NEVERTHELESS WE, ACCORDING
TO HIS PROMISE, LOOK FOR NEW
00:24:19.62\00:24:23.43
HEAVENS AND A NEW EARTH,
WHEREIN DWELLS RIGHTEOUSNESS."
00:24:23.43\00:24:28.66
THERE'S NO MORE PAIN THERE.
YOU READ IN REVELATION 21,
00:24:28.66\00:24:32.93
VERSE 4, "AND GOD
SHALL WIPE AWAY ALL
00:24:32.93\00:24:35.44
TEARS FROM THEIR EYES; AND THERE
SHALL BE NO MORE DEATH, NEITHER
00:24:35.44\00:24:39.87
SORROW, NOR CRYING, NEITHER
SHALL THERE BE ANY MORE" - WHAT?
00:24:39.87\00:24:45.48
- "PAIN:" - NO MORE PAIN - "FOR
THE FORMER THINGS ARE PASSED
00:24:45.48\00:24:49.62
AWAY...BEHOLD, I MAKE
ALL THINGS NEW" GOD SAYS.
00:24:49.62\00:24:52.85
IS GOD GOING TO IMMORTALIZE
SATAN AND SINNERS IN A TORTURE
00:24:52.85\00:24:55.99
CHAMBER SOMEWHERE IN THE COSMOS?
NO, NOT THEIR BODIES, NOT THEIR
00:24:55.99\00:25:00.86
SOULS. HE IS
GOING TO MAKE ALL THINGS
00:25:00.86\00:25:02.53
NEW. THERE ARE NO HOLDOVERS - NO
00:25:02.53\00:25:05.60
CHANCE OF THE
DEVIL ESCAPING AGAIN.
00:25:05.60\00:25:08.07
QUESTION #17: WILL THE
SIN PROBLEM EVER RISE AGAIN?
00:25:08.07\00:25:12.07
IT TELLS US IN THE BOOK OF NAHUM
1, VERSE 9, "... AFFLICTION
00:25:12.07\00:25:17.11
SHALL NOT RISE UP THE SECOND
TIME." PRAISE GOD! THIS TERRIBLE
00:25:17.11\00:25:22.52
INTERRUPTION IN GOD'S PERFECT
UNIVERSE, FOR THE LAST SIX
00:25:22.52\00:25:26.39
THOUSAND YEARS, IS GOING TO
DEMONSTRATE FOR ALL ETERNITY
00:25:26.39\00:25:29.82
THAT GOD IS LOVE AND NO ONE
WILL EVER HAVE TO DOUBT HIS LOVE
00:25:29.82\00:25:32.29
AGAIN. IS THERE A HELLFIRE? IS
THERE? YES. IS IT BURNING YET?
00:25:32.29\00:25:37.37
>>NO. >>NO.
00:25:37.37\00:25:39.13
DOES IT BURN FOREVER? >>NO.
00:25:39.13\00:25:42.00
>>WHAT DOES THE BIBLE SAY
WILL HAPPEN TO THE WICKED?
00:25:42.00\00:25:43.77
THEY ARE CONSUMED - THESE ARE
BIBLE WORDS - THEY ARE DEVOURED;
00:25:43.77\00:25:47.38
THEY ARE BURNT UP; THEY PERISH;
NEVER SHALL THEY BE ANYMORE;
00:25:47.38\00:25:52.51
WHAT OTHER LANGUAGE IS GOD GOING
TO USE TO EXPLAIN THIS - THAT HE
00:25:52.51\00:25:56.02
WANTS TO MAKE IT
AS CLEAR AS IT CAN BE?
00:25:56.02\00:25:58.72
AND THE REASON IT'S IMPORTANT
TO UNDERSTAND THIS SUBJECT,
00:25:58.72\00:26:01.76
FRIENDS, IS BECAUSE
GOD WANTS US TO TRUST HIM.
00:26:01.76\00:26:04.36
GOD WANTS US TO LOVE HIM.
YES, WE'RE TO REVERE AND HONOR
00:26:04.36\00:26:07.96
GOD AND FEAR HIM IN THAT
RESPECT, BUT HE DOESN'T WANT US
00:26:07.96\00:26:10.77
TO LIVE OUR LIVES IN TERROR.
THE BIBLE SAYS THE FEARFUL WILL
00:26:10.77\00:26:13.37
BE CAST INTO THE LAKE OF FIRE.
HE DOESN'T WANT US TO LIVE BY
00:26:13.37\00:26:16.47
FEAR. HE WANTS
US TO LIVE BY FAITH.
00:26:16.47\00:26:18.41
AMEN? >>AMEN. (MUSIC)
00:26:18.41\00:26:24.71
>>EVERYONE KNOWS THE
BIBLE'S CLEAR THERE ARE ONLY TWO
00:26:24.71\00:26:26.95
DESTINIES: HEAVEN AND
HELL. BUT THERE ARE MORE
00:26:26.95\00:26:29.88
MISUNDERSTANDINGS OVER THE
SUBJECT OF HELL THAN VIRTUALLY
00:26:29.88\00:26:32.65
ANY OTHER BIBLE DOCTRINE.
THE CONCEPT OF THIS PLACE OF
00:26:32.65\00:26:36.06
NEVER-ENDING
TORMENT IS NOT BIBLICAL.
