>>THE DEVIL ISN'T DOWN
THERE SOMEWHERE IN THE MOLTEN,
00:00:11.77\00:00:14.98
UNDER THE GROUND. WHEN
GOD SAYS, IN THE BOOK OF
00:00:14.98\00:00:17.15
JOB, 'SATAN,
WHERE'D YOU COME FROM?'
00:00:17.15\00:00:18.61
HE DOESN'T SAY, 'I CAME FROM A
HOLE IN THE EARTH', HE SAID, 'I
00:00:18.61\00:00:20.88
CAME FROM WALKING TO
AND FRO ON THE EARTH.'

00:00:37.43\00:00:46.78
>>TONIGHT'S STUDY IS, I THINK,
ONE THAT IS NOT ONLY ONE THAT IS
00:00:46.78\00:00:49.44
VERY IMPORTANT, BUT IT COULD
REVOLUTIONIZE YOUR PICTURE OF
00:00:49.44\00:00:51.48
GOD AS IT DID FOR ME.
00:00:51.48\00:00:54.82
AND LET ME GIVE YOU JUST A
LITTLE PERSONAL TESTIMONY THAT
00:00:54.82\00:00:57.65
WILL HELP LEAD INTO WHAT WE'RE
GOING TO TALK ABOUT TONIGHT.
00:00:57.65\00:01:00.92
I MENTIONED EARLIER, WHEN I
SHARED MY TESTIMONY, I WENT TO
00:01:00.92\00:01:05.36
ABOUT 14 DIFFERENT SCHOOLS
AND, AMONG THOSE SCHOOLS, WERE A
00:01:05.36\00:01:09.20
COUPLE OF
DIFFERENT CHRISTIAN SCHOOLS.
00:01:09.20\00:01:11.97
AND I REMEMBER HEARING WHAT
MANY OF US HAVE HEARD - THAT IF
00:01:11.97\00:01:16.67
YOU'RE GOOD, WHEN YOU DIE YOU GO
TO HEAVEN; AND IF YOU'RE BAD AND
00:01:16.67\00:01:22.08
YOU DIE, YOU GO TO THE OTHER
PLACE WHERE THERE IS MOLTEN
00:01:22.08\00:01:29.02
SULPHUR AND BURNING BRIMSTONE
AND ALL THE EXPERIENCE OF EVERY
00:01:29.02\00:01:34.12
SQUARE CENTIMETER OF YOUR BODY
IN FLAMES - NOT FOR A MOMENT,
00:01:34.12\00:01:39.63
BUT FOR ETERNITY - YOU WILL
EXPERIENCE BLISTERING, BURNING
00:01:39.63\00:01:46.17
MISERY. AND I
THOUGHT, 'WOW, GOD IS A
00:01:46.17\00:01:53.51
SADIST.' JUST
TELLING YOU WHAT I THOUGHT.
00:01:53.51\00:01:56.31
I SAID - HERE I AM, TEN YEARS
OLD - I MEAN, YOU KNOW, I WAS
00:01:56.31\00:01:59.81
YOUNG BUT I
COULD THINK IT THROUGH.
00:01:59.81\00:02:01.65
I SAID, 'HE MADE ME. NO
ONE ASKED ME IF I WANTED TO
00:02:01.65\00:02:05.75
BE MADE.' IT SEEMS LIKE
EVERYBODY'S GOT THIS PROPENSITY
00:02:05.75\00:02:10.29
TO DO THINGS WRONG - ESPECIALLY
A TEN-YEAR-OLD BOY, RIGHT?
00:02:10.29\00:02:13.90
- 'AND IF I SHOULD DIE NOW, I
WILL BE TORTURED ETERNALLY.' AND
00:02:13.90\00:02:21.00
I SAID, 'HOW CAN I
LOVE A GOD LIKE THAT?
00:02:21.00\00:02:25.47
AND IN MY HEART, I THOUGHT,
'IF THERE'S A GOD LIKE THAT' -
00:02:25.47\00:02:27.88
FORGIVE ME, I SAY THIS JUST TO
BE HONEST - I THOUGHT, 'I HATE
00:02:27.88\00:02:32.48
HIM.' I THOUGHT, 'HE'S
CRUEL.' BECAUSE I WOULDN'T DO
00:02:32.48\00:02:36.65
THAT TO MY DOG
AND I WAS PRETTY BAD.
00:02:36.65\00:02:41.82
WHEN I FINALLY LEARNED WHAT THE
BIBLE REALLY TEACHES ABOUT THIS
00:02:41.82\00:02:45.53
SUBJECT, IT WAS SO LIBERATING
FOR ME, IT ENABLED ME TO TRUST
00:02:45.53\00:02:49.73
AND TO LOVE GOD.
NOW, JUST - BEFORE ANYONE
00:02:49.73\00:02:54.14
CHANGES THE CHANNEL OR
SAYS, 'OH, PASTOR DOUG DOES NOT
00:02:54.14\00:02:56.60
BELIEVE IN HELL OR
THE LAKE OF FIRE.' I DO.
00:02:56.60\00:03:02.08
PEOPLE ARE WRONG ABOUT HOW LONG
HELL BURNS AND WHEN IT BURNS.
00:03:02.08\00:03:09.18
SO WE'RE GOING TO STUDY
THAT FROM THE BIBLE NOW AND OUR
00:03:09.18\00:03:11.85
LESSON TONIGHT IS LESSON NUMBER
10 AND IT'S TITLED THE FINAL
00:03:11.85\00:03:16.29
FIRESTORM . THE FINAL FIRESTORM.
IT BEGINS WITH A STORY THAT WE
00:03:16.29\00:03:21.93
KNOW FROM GENESIS CHAPTER
13, THAT TALKS ABOUT LOT.
00:03:21.93\00:03:27.07
ORIGINALLY, ABRAHAM AND LOT WERE
TOGETHER WITH THEIR SHEEP, BUT
00:03:27.07\00:03:30.84
BECAUSE THEY HAD SO MANY SHEEP
AND THEY - THE SHEPHERDS WERE
00:03:30.84\00:03:35.08
FIGHTING WITH EACH OTHER,
ABRAHAM SAID, 'YOU KNOW, WE
00:03:35.08\00:03:37.51
PROBABLY OUGHT TO SPLIT THINGS
UP.' AND LOT LOOKED DOWN AT THE
00:03:37.51\00:03:40.38
VALLEY OF SODOM AND IT SAYS IT
WAS WATERED LIKE THE GARDEN OF
00:03:40.38\00:03:44.59
GOD, BACK THEN. IT
WAS A BEAUTIFUL PLACE.
00:03:44.59\00:03:47.56
ABRAHAM, HE SHOOK HIS HEAD
BECAUSE IT SAYS IN THE BIBLE -
00:03:47.56\00:03:51.46
GENESIS 13:13 - "THE MEN OF
SODOM WERE EXCEEDINGLY WICKED."
00:03:51.46\00:03:58.63
FINALLY, GOD SENT THE ANGELS
DOWN - YOU KNOW THE STORY - TO
00:03:58.63\00:04:01.84
SODOM TO RESCUE LOT
BEFORE HE DESTROYS IT.
00:04:01.84\00:04:06.81
AND THEY SAID, GENESIS 19, VERSE
17 - "ESCAPE FOR YOUR LIFE!
00:04:06.81\00:04:12.48
DO NOT LOOK BEHIND THEE...ESCAPE
TO THE MOUNTAINS, LEST YOU BE
00:04:12.48\00:04:16.62
CONSUMED...THEN THE LORD RAINED
UPON SODOM AND UPON GOMORRAH
00:04:16.62\00:04:23.99
BRIMSTONE AND FIRE FROM
THE LORD OUT OF HEAVEN."
00:04:23.99\00:04:29.53
THIS IS A REAL EVENT THAT
HAPPENED AND THERE IN THAT VERY
00:04:29.53\00:04:32.40
REGION WHERE THEY TELL US THEY
EXISTED, THEY CAN FIND - ONLY
00:04:32.40\00:04:34.70
PLACE IN THE WORLD - JUST
PEPPERED IN THE GROUND ARE THESE
00:04:34.70\00:04:39.31
SULPHUR BALLS - THAT WHEN THEY
HIT THE GROUND, SOME OF THEM
00:04:39.31\00:04:42.31
JUST EXTINGUISHED THEMSELVES ON
IMPACT AND IMBEDDED THEMSELVES
00:04:42.31\00:04:44.55
IN THE ASH AND
ARE STILL THERE TODAY.
00:04:44.55\00:04:47.68
NOW WHAT HAPPENED TO SODOM AND
GOMORRAH, THE BIBLE SAYS, IS AN
00:04:47.68\00:04:52.35
ILLUSTRATION OF WHAT WILL HAPPEN
TO THE WICKED IN THE LAST DAYS.
00:04:52.35\00:04:56.19
IT SAYS, "AND GOD, TURNING
THE CITIES OF SODOM AND GOMORRAH
00:04:56.19\00:05:00.56
INTO ASHES, CONDEMNED THEM WITH
AN OVERTHROW, MAKING THEM AN
00:05:00.56\00:05:06.50
EXAMPLE UNTO THOSE THAT AFTER
SHOULD LIVE UNGODLY." BY THE
00:05:06.50\00:05:10.67
WAY, WHAT HAPPENED TO SODOM AND
GOMORRAH IS AN EXAMPLE OF WHAT'S
00:05:10.67\00:05:13.98
GOING TO HAPPEN TO THE WICKED
IN THE LAST DAYS. WHEN WILL THE
00:05:13.98\00:05:18.05
WICKED BE DESTROYED IN HELLFIRE?
2 PETER CHAPTER 2, VERSE 9, "THE
00:05:18.05\00:05:23.92
LORD KNOWETH HOW TO...RESERVE
THE UNJUST UNTO THE DAY OF
00:05:23.92\00:05:28.26
JUDGMENT TO BE PUNISHED."
IF THEY'RE BEING RESERVED FOR
00:05:28.26\00:05:33.09
PUNISHMENT TIL THEN, WOULD THEY
BE BURNING IN A LAKE OF FIRE
00:05:33.09\00:05:36.60
NOW? >>NO.
00:05:36.60\00:05:38.33
>>NO, BECAUSE
JUDGMENT HASN'T HAPPENED.
00:05:38.33\00:05:40.80
RESURRECTION
HASN'T HAPPENED, RIGHT?
00:05:40.80\00:05:42.84
JESUS SAID, JOHN 12:48, "...THE
WORD THAT I HAVE SPOKEN, THE
00:05:42.84\00:05:47.11
SAME SHALL JUDGE HIM" - HE'S
TALKING ABOUT THE LOST - "IN THE
00:05:47.11\00:05:50.18
LAST DAY." THE
JUDGMENT HAPPENS WHEN?
00:05:50.18\00:05:53.31
THE LAST DAY.
FURTHERMORE, YOU CAN READ -
00:05:53.31\00:05:55.98
JESUS TELLS A PARABLE -
MATTHEW CHAPTER 13, VERSE 40 -
00:05:55.98\00:05:58.85
"AS THEREFORE THE TARES" - THOSE
ARE WEEDS - "ARE GATHERED AND
00:05:58.85\00:06:02.96
BURNED IN THE FIRE; SO SHALL
IT BE IN THE END OF THIS WORLD.
00:06:02.96\00:06:09.83
THE SON OF MAN SHALL SEND
FORTH HIS ANGELS, AND THEY SHALL
00:06:09.83\00:06:12.97
GATHER....THEM WHICH DO
INIQUITY; AND SHALL CAST THEM
00:06:12.97\00:06:16.74
INTO A FURNACE OF
FIRE." IS IT HAPPENING NOW? NO.
00:06:16.74\00:06:20.61
IF THE WICKED WHO HAVE DIED ARE
NOT YET IN HELL, THEN ACCORDING
00:06:20.61\00:06:26.72
TO THE BIBLE, WHERE ARE
THEY? LET THE BIBLE TELL US.
00:06:26.72\00:06:30.49
JESUS SAID - JOHN 5:28 AND 29 -
"...THE HOUR IS COMING" - THAT'S
00:06:30.49\00:06:36.09
FUTURE TENSE, RIGHT? - "IN
THE WHICH ALL THAT ARE" - WHERE?
00:06:36.09\00:06:39.16
- "IN THE GRAVES SHALL HEAR HIS
VOICE, AND SHALL COME FORTH;" -
00:06:39.16\00:06:44.30
THEN HE DESCRIBES THE TWO
RESURRECTIONS - "THEY THAT HAVE
00:06:44.30\00:06:46.77
DONE GOOD, UNTO THE RESURRECTION
OF LIFE; AND THEY THAT HAVE DONE
00:06:46.77\00:06:48.77
EVIL, UNTO THE
RESURRECTION OF DAMNATION."
00:06:48.77\00:06:50.64
THAT'S THE SECOND RESURRECTION.
THAT'S WHEN THEY GET THEIR
00:06:50.64\00:06:53.51
REWARD. THE HOUR
IS COMING WHEN THEY'LL
00:06:53.51\00:06:55.74
BE REWARDED. IT'S IN THE FUTURE.
00:06:55.74\00:06:57.55
IT SAYS, "THE WICKED IS RESERVED
TO THE DAY OF DESTRUCTION, YET
00:06:57.55\00:07:03.85
HE WILL BE
BROUGHT TO THE" - WHERE?
00:07:03.85\00:07:05.95
- "THE GRAVE AND
WILL REMAIN IN THE TOMB."
00:07:05.95\00:07:10.19
THEY'RE ASLEEP. YOU
CAN PUT R.I.P - REST IN
00:07:10.19\00:07:13.83
PEACE - ON ANY GRAVE BECAUSE,
UNTIL THE JUDGMENT, THEY'RE
00:07:13.83\00:07:16.77
AWARE OF NOTHING. ISN'T
THAT WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS?
00:07:16.77\00:07:20.10
QUESTION #4 - START AT THE
BEGINNING - WHAT IS THE REWARD
00:07:20.10\00:07:24.67
OR PUNISHMENT FOR
SIN? WHAT DID GOD SAY?
00:07:24.67\00:07:28.88
ROMANS 6:23, "FOR THE WAGES
OF SIN IS DEATH; BUT THE GIFT OF
00:07:28.88\00:07:35.95
GOD IS ETERNAL LIFE
THROUGH JESUS CHRIST OUR LORD."
00:07:35.95\00:07:39.35
YOU REMEMBER IN THE BIBLE, WHEN
GOD SAID TO ADAM AND EVE, 'DO
00:07:39.35\00:07:44.16
NOT EAT THE FORBIDDEN FRUIT OR
YOU WILL DIE.' THE PENALTY FOR
00:07:44.16\00:07:47.76
THAT SIN WAS DEATH. THE
DEVIL SAID TO EVE, THROUGH
00:07:47.76\00:07:52.17
THE SERPENT - SHE SAID, 'OH, GOD
SAID IF WE EAT IT WE'LL DIE -
00:07:52.17\00:07:55.54
GOD SAID WE'LL DIE.' AND THE
DEVIL SAID, 'DON'T BELIEVE GOD,
00:07:55.54\00:07:58.44
YOU'LL NOT REALLY
DIE. YOU'RE IMMORTAL.
00:07:58.44\00:08:01.88
YOU'LL EITHER LIVE FOREVER IN
HEAVEN OR YOU'LL LIVE FOREVER IN
00:08:01.88\00:08:04.38
HELL, BUT YOU CAN'T DIE.
YOU'LL BE LIKE GODS.' SEE THE
00:08:04.38\00:08:07.08
DEVIL TRIED TO INSTILL
WITHIN MAN WHAT HE DESIRES.
00:08:07.08\00:08:10.25
THE DEVIL IS
CONSUMED WITH THE TRUTH.
00:08:10.25\00:08:13.15
IT TEARS HIM UP THAT HE IS NOT
GOD AND THAT HE IS NOT IMMORTAL.
00:08:13.15\00:08:17.33
EVEN THE DEVIL HAS AN END.
SO, GOD SAID, EVEN AFTER MAN
00:08:17.33\00:08:21.46
SINNED, 'WE NEED TO DRIVE MAN
FROM THE GARDEN, LEST HE PUT OUT
00:08:21.46\00:08:24.97
HIS HAND AND TAKE ALSO OF THE
TREE OF LIFE AND EAT AND LIVE
00:08:24.97\00:08:29.07
FOREVER.' WAS MAN
EVICTED FROM THE GARDEN?
00:08:29.07\00:08:32.41
>>YES. >>THEN WE DON'T HAVE THAT
00:08:32.41\00:08:34.11
IMMORTALITY. WE ARE
- HE SAYS HE'S GOING TO
00:08:34.11\00:08:37.35
DIE. SINNERS DO
NOT LIVE FOREVER.
00:08:37.35\00:08:40.22
WHAT ARE THE ONLY TWO CHOICES
FOR ALL MEN? IT'S VERY SIMPLE.
00:08:40.22\00:08:44.52
NOQ THE STRONGEST VERSE TO PROVE
THIS POINT IS THE MOST POPULAR
00:08:44.52\00:08:49.52
VERSE IN THE
BIBLE. WHAT IS THAT?
00:08:49.52\00:08:52.09
>>JOHN 3:16. >>JOHN 3:16.
00:08:52.09\00:08:53.76
WHY DON'T YOU SAY IT
WITH ME? "THAT WHOSOEVER
00:08:53.76\00:08:57.20
BELIEVES IN HIM SHOULD NOT
PERISH BUT HAVE EVERLASTING
00:08:57.20\00:09:03.04
LIFE." THIS TRANSLATES
THE SAME IN ANY LANGUAGE.
00:09:03.04\00:09:05.37
WHAT DID JESUS DO
ON THE CROSS? >>DIED.
00:09:05.37\00:09:08.21
>>IF THE PENALTY FOR SIN IS
ETERNAL BURNING, THEN JESUS DID
00:09:08.21\00:09:13.68
NOT PAY THE FULL PRICE ON
THE CROSS BECAUSE HE'S NOT STILL
00:09:13.68\00:09:16.22
BURNING, IS HE? THE PENALTY
FOR SIN IS DEATH. JESUS DIED.
00:09:16.22\00:09:20.02
THE PENALTY FOR SIN
IS NOT ETERNAL TORMENT.
00:09:20.02\00:09:22.36
QUESTION #6: WHAT WILL HAPPEN
TO THE WICKED IN HELLFIRE?
00:09:22.36\00:09:27.00
PSALMS 37 - HERE'S OUR ANSWER -
VERSE 10 AND VERSE 20 - "FOR YET
00:09:27.00\00:09:31.80
A LITTLE WHILE, AND THE WICKED
SHALL NOT BE...BUT THE WICKED
00:09:31.80\00:09:36.20
SHALL PERISH...INTO
SMOKE THEY SHALL CONSUME AWAY."
00:09:36.20\00:09:41.81
WHAT KIND OF WORDS CAN WE USE
THAT ARE BETTER TO EXPLAIN THESE
00:09:41.81\00:09:44.98
THINGS? LOOK IN MALACHI
CHAPTER 4, VERSES 1 AND 3.
00:09:44.98\00:09:48.92
THE BIBLE SAYS, "...THE DAY
COMETH, THAT SHALL BURN AS AN
00:09:48.92\00:09:52.25
OVEN; AND ALL...THAT DO
WICKEDLY, SHALL BE STUBBLE: AND
00:09:52.25\00:09:55.86
THE DAY THAT COMETH
SHALL BURN THEM UP."
00:09:55.86\00:10:00.46
NOW WHEN SOMETHING'S
BURNT UP, WHAT'S LEFT?
00:10:00.46\00:10:02.83
"AND YE SHALL TREAD DOWN THE
WICKED; FOR THEY SHALL BE ASHES
00:10:02.83\00:10:06.03
UNDER THE SOLES OF YOUR FEET."
WHERE WILL HELLFIRE BE LOCATED?
00:10:06.03\00:10:11.84
YOU CAN READ IN REVELATION
20, VERSE 9 - IT SAYS, "AND THEY
00:10:11.84\00:10:16.04
WENT UP ON THE BREADTH OF THE
EARTH, AND COMPASSED THE CAMP
00:10:16.04\00:10:20.02
OF THE SAINTS ABOUT." SO
BEFORE GOD RAINS THAT FIRE
00:10:20.02\00:10:23.08
AND BRIMSTONE DOWN, WHERE -
WHERE IS THE DEVIL AND ALL THE
00:10:23.08\00:10:26.52
FORCES OF GOG AND MAGOG -
ALL THE WICKED? ON THE EARTH.
00:10:26.52\00:10:30.53
AND IT SAYS, "AND FIRE CAME DOWN
FROM GOD OUT OF HEAVEN, AND" -
00:10:30.53\00:10:35.43
WHAT? - "DEVOURED THEM."
WHERE IS IT? ON THE EARTH.
00:10:35.43\00:10:38.27
YOU CAN READ IN 2 PETER CHAPTER
3, VERSE 10, "...THE ELEMENTS
00:10:38.27\00:10:42.24
SHALL MELT WITH" -
WHAT KIND OF HEAT? -
00:10:42.24\00:10:45.44
>>FERVENT HEAT.
>>"FERVENT HEAT, THE EARTH ALSO
00:10:45.44\00:10:47.58
AND THE WORKS THAT ARE
THEREIN SHALL BE BURNED UP."
00:10:47.58\00:10:50.35
AND YET, HOW MANY OF US HAVE
HEARD, 'HELL IS SOMEWHERE DOWN
00:10:50.35\00:10:54.25
YONDER'? RIGHT? THE
DEVIL ISN'T DOWN THERE
00:10:54.25\00:10:58.52
SOMEWHERE IN THE
MOLTEN, UNDER THE GROUND.
00:10:58.52\00:11:01.12
WHEN GOD SAYS, IN THE BOOK
OF JOB, 'SATAN, WHERE'D YOU COME
00:11:01.12\00:11:03.53
FROM?' HE DIDN'T
SAY, 'I CAME FROM A
00:11:03.53\00:11:04.83
HOLE IN THE EARTH.' HE SAID, 'I
CAME FROM WALKING TO AND FRO ON
00:11:04.83\00:11:07.50
THE EARTH.' I'LL TELL
YOU WHY PEOPLE GET THAT IDEA.
00:11:07.50\00:11:11.90
IT OFTEN TALKS ABOUT DESCENDING
INTO HELL, IN THE BIBLE, AND
00:11:11.90\00:11:15.14
THOSE TERMS ARE - MANY OF THEM
- ARE FROM HEBREW. IT'S A WORD
00:11:15.14\00:11:20.34
CALLED SHEOL IN THE OLD
TESTAMENT AND IT MEANS GRAVE.
00:11:20.34\00:11:24.85
THE WORD THAT YOU FIND IN THE
OLD TESTAMENT FREQUENTLY - THOU
00:11:24.85\00:11:28.05
WILL NOT LEAVE MY SOUL IN HELL
- THAT TRANSLATES SHEOL - THAT
00:11:28.05\00:11:32.22
JUST MEANS GRAVE.
THAT'S ALL IT MEANS.
00:11:32.22\00:11:33.79
FOUR WORDS IN THE BIBLE ARE
TRANSLATED FOR HELL: SHEOL, IN
00:11:33.79\00:11:37.89
THE OLD TESTAMENT; IN THE
NEW TESTAMENT YOU'VE GOT THREE.
00:11:37.89\00:11:40.90
YOU'VE GOT GEHENNA, WHICH WAS
A VALLEY OUTSIDE OF JERUSALEM
00:11:40.90\00:11:44.17
CALLED THE VALLEY OF HINNOM.
YOU'VE GOT HADES, WHICH COMES
00:11:44.17\00:11:47.70
FROM GREEK MYTHOLOGY,
AND YOU'VE GOT TARTARUS -
00:11:47.70\00:11:50.51
IT'S ONLY USED ONE TIME
IN THE WRITINGS OF PETER.
00:11:50.51\00:11:53.14
GEHENNA WAS THE CITY DUMP - THE
VALLEY OF HINNOM - THEY USED TO
00:11:53.14\00:11:58.81
HAVE IDOLS THERE AND SO THEY
DECIDED TO MAKE IT A CITY DUMP
00:11:58.81\00:12:01.12
BECAUSE THEY HAD WORSHIPED PAGAN
IMAGES DOWN THERE AND ALL OF THE
00:12:01.12\00:12:05.52
REFUSE WAS PUT IN THERE AND THEY
- WHEN AN UNCLEAN ANIMAL DIED IT
00:12:05.52\00:12:08.56
WENT TO GEHENNA AND THEY HAD
THEIR OLD BASKETS THERE AND OLD
00:12:08.56\00:12:12.53
CLOTH THERE AND EVERY NOW AND
THEN SOMEONE WOULD THROW THEIR
00:12:12.53\00:12:14.93
ASHES OUT THERE AND IT WAS
SMOLDERING BECAUSE THEY STILL
00:12:14.93\00:12:18.53
HAD HOT COALS IN IT. SO
THEY LET IT BURN - IT WAS
00:12:18.53\00:12:21.24
GOOD - IT KEPT THE GASSES DOWN
AND IT HELPED CONSUME THINGS.
00:12:21.24\00:12:24.64
ANY OF YOU EVER BURN GARBAGE?
AND SO JESUS IS REFERENCING -
00:12:24.64\00:12:27.84
ONE OF HIS REFERENCES TO HELL
HE TALKS ABOUT A PLACE WHERE THE
00:12:27.84\00:12:30.58
WORM DOES NOT DIE AND
THE FIRE IS NOT QUENCHED.
00:12:30.58\00:12:32.68
IT WAS FULL OF WORMS AND DEAD
BODIES AND MAGGOTS AND IT WAS
00:12:32.68\00:12:35.62
SMOLDERING AND - THAT'S GEHENNA.
THAT'S THE WORD THAT HE USES
00:12:35.62\00:12:38.82
FOR GEHENNA.
QUESTION #8: WILL THE DEVIL BE
00:12:38.82\00:12:42.36
IN CHARGE OF HELLFIRE? NO.
REVELATION 20:10, "AND THE DEVIL
00:12:42.36\00:12:48.00
THAT DECEIVED THEM WAS CAST INTO
THE LAKE OF FIRE AND BRIMSTONE."
00:12:48.00\00:12:54.00
YOU CAN SAY 'AMEN'
THERE. THAT'S GOOD NEWS.
00:12:54.00\00:12:56.74
I MEAN, IF ANYONE DESERVES
TO GO THERE, HE DOES, RIGHT?
00:12:56.74\00:13:00.44
HE STARTED ALL THE
PROBLEMS. HE'S NOT IN CHARGE.
00:13:00.44\00:13:03.98
A LOT OF WHAT HAS COME INTO
CHRISTIANITY TRICKLED IN FROM
00:13:03.98\00:13:09.55
THE GRECO-ROMAN RELIGIONS
BECAUSE CHRISTIANITY ABSOLUTELY
00:13:09.55\00:13:14.12
EXPLODED IN GROWTH IN THE ROMAN
EMPIRE, DURING THE TIME OF PAUL.
00:13:14.12\00:13:20.46
I MEAN, EVEN PAUL SAYS THE
GOSPEL'S BEEN PREACHED TO EVERY
00:13:20.46\00:13:23.60
CREATURE. THE CHURCH
GREW SO QUICKLY - PENTECOST -
00:13:23.60\00:13:26.07
THOUSANDS WERE BAPTIZED.
MIRACLES WERE HAPPENING.
00:13:26.07\00:13:29.04
AND A LOT OF THE PAGANS
WERE ONLY HALF CONVERTED.
00:13:29.04\00:13:31.84
THEY CAME IN AND, NOT BEING
PROPERLY TAUGHT, THEY TRIED TO
00:13:31.84\00:13:34.58
MIX UP THE TRUTHS FROM THE WORD
OF GOD ABOUT THE DEVIL AND HELL
00:13:34.58\00:13:39.75
AND THEY GOT IT MIXED UP WITH
GREEK MYTHOLOGY AND PLUTO AND
00:13:39.75\00:13:42.58
HADES AND SOME OF THOSE
THINGS STAYED FOR YEARS.
00:13:42.58\00:13:47.59
BUT IT'S NOT A BIBLICAL THING,
IT'S A GREEK MYTH THAT FOUND ITS
00:13:47.59\00:13:50.89
WAY INTO THE CHRISTIAN CHURCH.
NOWHERE IN THE BIBLE DOES IT SAY
00:13:50.89\00:13:53.70
THE DEVIL'S IN
CHARGE OF HELL, DOES IT? NO.
00:13:53.70\00:13:56.77
QUESTION #9: WILL THE
FIRES OF HELL EVER GO OUT?
00:13:56.77\00:14:00.37
THIS IS THE - THIS IS A BIG
QUESTION WHERE I WANT TO SPEND A
00:14:00.37\00:14:03.54
MOMENT. ISAIAH 47, VERSE 14.
00:14:03.54\00:14:06.54
IT SAYS, "...THERE SHALL NOT BE
A COAL TO WARM AT, NOR FIRE TO
00:14:06.54\00:14:12.95
SIT BEFORE IT." IT
SAYS YOU'LL GO FORTH - THE
00:14:12.95\00:14:16.75
WICKED ARE ASHES UNDER
THE SOLES OF YOUR FEET.
00:14:16.75\00:14:18.62
AFTER GOD RAINS THAT FIRE DOWN
FROM HEAVEN UPON THE WICKED, IT
00:14:18.62\00:14:23.32
FORMS A LAKE
OUTSIDE THE CITY OF GOD.
00:14:23.32\00:14:26.13
BUT, ULTIMATELY, IT GOES OUT.
IT SAYS YOU'LL GO FORTH AND YOU
00:14:26.13\00:14:29.60
TREAD UPON THE WICKED BECAUSE
THEY ARE ASHES UNDER THE SOLES
00:14:29.60\00:14:32.73
OF YOUR FEET. BLESSED
ARE THE MEEK - THEY WILL
00:14:32.73\00:14:35.34
INHERIT WHAT? >>THE EARTH.
00:14:35.34\00:14:37.17
>>THE EARTH. IT'S
THE MEEK ARE WALKING OUT.
00:14:37.17\00:14:38.94
I HEARD A PASTOR SAY ONE
TIME, 'TODAY SHEEP GRAZE WHERE
00:14:38.94\00:14:42.18
DINOSAURS THUNDERED. AND
CHRISTIANS WILL WALK WHERE
00:14:42.18\00:14:46.68
THE WICKED ONCE RULED.' THE
MEEK WILL INHERIT THE EARTH.
00:14:46.68\00:14:50.02
QUESTION #10: ARE BOTH THE SOUL
AND THE BODY DESTROYED IN HELL?
00:14:50.02\00:14:55.16
NOW, IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE PASTOR
DOUG, WILL YOU BELIEVE PASTOR
00:14:55.16\00:14:58.33
JESUS? SOME PEOPLE SAY,
'WELL, DOUG, YOU'RE RIGHT.
00:14:58.33\00:15:02.10
THE BODIES DON'T BURN FOREVER,
BUT THE SOULS BURN FOREVER.'
00:15:02.10\00:15:05.73
I'VE HEARD SOME PEOPLE SAY THAT.
OH, LET'S SEE WHAT JESUS SAID.
00:15:05.73\00:15:08.17
MATTHEW 10:28, HE SAID, "FEAR
NOT THEM WHICH KILL THE BODY,
00:15:08.17\00:15:13.27
BUT ARE NOT ABLE TO KILL THE
SOUL: BUT RATHER FEAR HIM WHICH
00:15:13.27\00:15:17.75
IS ABLE TO
DESTROY" - TO DO WHAT? -
00:15:17.75\00:15:21.32
"DESTROY BOTH SOUL AND BODY
IN HELL." WHAT DID JESUS SAY?
00:15:21.32\00:15:28.99
HE SAID FEAR THE ONE WHO
COULD DESTROY SOUL AND BODY.
00:15:28.99\00:15:31.59
HE SAID DON'T FEAR THE DEVIL, HE
CAN ONLY HURT YOUR BODY, BUT GOD
00:15:31.59\00:15:33.73
IS THE ONE WHO CAN
DESTROY SOUL AND BODY IN HELL.
00:15:33.73\00:15:38.03
AND THAT'S WHAT WE SHOULD FEAR.
NOW WHAT'S LEFT WHEN THE SOUL
00:15:38.03\00:15:42.14
AND BODY ARE GONE? NOTHING.
FOR WHOM WILL HELLFIRE BE
00:15:42.14\00:15:46.91
KINDLED? MATTHEW
CHAPTER 25, VERSE 41 -
00:15:46.91\00:15:50.48
JESUS, WHEN HE SEPARATES
THE SHEEP FROM THE GOATS IN THIS
00:15:50.48\00:15:53.38
PARABLE HE SAYS TO THE WICKED,
"DEPART FROM ME, YE CURSED, INTO
00:15:53.38\00:15:56.28
EVERLASTING FIRE, PREPARED
FOR THE DEVIL AND HIS ANGELS."
00:15:56.28\00:16:02.59
'WELL, THERE YOU HAVE IT,
PASTOR DOUG: EVERLASTING FIRE.
00:16:02.59\00:16:05.46
IT SAYS IT'S GOING TO LAST
FOREVER.' STAY WITH ME, WE'LL
00:16:05.46\00:16:08.83
GET TO THAT IN A MINUTE.
00:16:08.83\00:16:10.33
BUT IS THE DEVIL IN CHARGE
OF HELL OR DOES IT SAY THAT HE -
00:16:10.33\00:16:15.00
HELL IS PREPARED
FOR HIM AND HIS ANGELS.
00:16:15.00\00:16:17.77
SO IT'S NOT JUST SATAN, ALL
THE FALLEN ANGELS AND THE DEMONS
00:16:17.77\00:16:20.54
THAT FOLLOWED HIM, THEY'RE GOING
TO GET THAT SAME PUNISHMENT.
00:16:20.54\00:16:24.08
HOW DOES THE BIBLE REFER TO
GOD'S DESTRUCTION OF THE WICKED?
00:16:24.08\00:16:29.12
IS IT SOMETHING HE ENJOYS? NO.
00:16:29.12\00:16:32.45
ISAIAH CHAPTER 28, VERSE 21, IT
SAYS, "FOR THE LORD...SHALL BE
00:16:32.45\00:16:37.56
WROTH...THAT HE MAY DO HIS WORK,
HIS STRANGE WORK; AND BRING TO
00:16:37.56\00:16:42.13
PASS HIS ACT, HIS STRANGE ACT."
SOMEONE ASKED EARLIER IN ONE OF
00:16:42.13\00:16:46.80
THE QUESTIONS, 'HOW
CAN A GOD OF LOVE DESTROY?'
00:16:46.80\00:16:49.40
DOES HE ENJOY THAT?
DOES GOD LIKE DESTROYING?
00:16:49.40\00:16:53.71
REMEMBER WHEN GOD DESTROYED
THE WORLD IN THE DAYS OF NOAH?
00:16:53.71\00:16:55.44
HE USED WATER. ARE
THEY STILL DROWNING TODAY OR
00:16:55.44\00:16:58.31
ARE THEY GONE? HE
SAID, 'NEXT TIME I'LL DO IT
00:16:58.31\00:17:01.88
WITH FIRE.' BUT HE'S GOING
TO DESTROY THE WORLD AGAIN.
00:17:01.88\00:17:04.42
BUT IT SAYS IT GRIEVED GOD
AT HIS HEART THAT HE MADE MAN.
00:17:04.42\00:17:09.39
HE WAS NOT HAPPY ABOUT WHAT HE
HAD TO DO, IT BROKE HIS HEART.
00:17:09.39\00:17:12.03
GOD WANTS TO MAKE
LIFE. HE WANTS TO SAVE LIFE.
00:17:12.03\00:17:14.63
IF YOU DOUBT THAT,
WHY DID JESUS COME?
00:17:14.63\00:17:16.30
BECAUSE HE'S
DESPERATE TO SAVE US.
00:17:16.30\00:17:18.60
WHEN HE HAS TO DESTROY THE
LOST, KNOW YOU DO NOT LOVE YOUR
00:17:18.60\00:17:23.97
CHILDREN MORE THAN
GOD LOVES HIS CHILDREN.
00:17:23.97\00:17:26.27
IT HURTS GOD INFINITELY MORE
THAN IT WOULD HURT ANY EARTHLY
00:17:26.27\00:17:31.41
PARENT TO HAVE TO TAKE
THE LIFE OF THEIR OWN CHILD.
00:17:31.41\00:17:34.88
JESUS IS A LOVER OF
GOOD. HE IS A LOVER OF LIFE.
00:17:34.88\00:17:40.29
HE WANTS TO GIVE LIFE.
I'LL TELL YOU A QUICK STORY.
00:17:40.29\00:17:44.16
WHEN I LIVED UP IN THE
MOUNTAINS, I TOLD YOU I LIVED IN
00:17:44.16\00:17:47.50
A CAVE FOR ABOUT A YEAR AND
A HALF AND I COOKED ON A FIRE
00:17:47.50\00:17:52.00
EVERY DAY. AND I
REMEMBER, ONE NIGHT - I
00:17:52.00\00:17:55.97
HAD A CAT UP THERE - I THINK
I SHOWED YOU A PICTURE, IF YOU
00:17:55.97\00:17:58.37
WERE HERE, OF MY CAT STRANGER.
AND I NEVER BOUGHT CAT FOOD.
00:17:58.37\00:18:02.14
EVERY NOW AND THEN I'D THROW
HIM A LITTLE SOMETHING, BUT HE
00:18:02.14\00:18:04.31
PRETTY MUCH TOOK CARE OF HIMSELF
BECAUSE HE WAS A GOOD HUNTER.
00:18:04.31\00:18:07.22
ONE NIGHT, I WAS COOKING MY
DINNER; STRANGER HAD CAUGHT A
00:18:07.22\00:18:10.22
LITTLE KANGAROO RAT. NOW,
YOU KNOW, CATS ARE A LITTLE BIT
00:18:10.22\00:18:13.96
SADISTIC. THEY LIKE
TO PLAY WITH THEIR FOOD.
00:18:13.96\00:18:16.79
AND THAT POOR LITTLE DAZED
KANGAROO RAT, HE TRIED TO BOUNCE
00:18:16.79\00:18:20.06
AND HOP AWAY AND HE HOPPED RIGHT
INTO THE FIRE. NOW I - IT NEVER
00:18:20.06\00:18:27.00
FAILS TO GET A GASP FROM THE
AUDIENCE WHEN I TELL THAT STORY.
00:18:27.00\00:18:31.27
HERE YOU ARE, I'M TELLING
YOU ABOUT THIS LITTLE MOUSE THAT
00:18:31.27\00:18:34.41
WENT INTO THE FIRE, AND IT JUST
BREAKS YOUR HEARTS, DOESN'T IT?
00:18:34.41\00:18:36.78
THAT LITTLE THING - JUST
THE IDEA OF THE LITTLE RAT
00:18:36.78\00:18:39.05
SUFFERING. NOW IT
SEEMED LIKE A LONG TIME
00:18:39.05\00:18:42.42
BUT I WATCHED IT, YOU KNOW, IT
JUST - IT SQUEAKED AND WRITHED
00:18:42.42\00:18:45.62
FOR PROBABLY TWO OR THREE
SECONDS AND IT STOPPED - AND IT
00:18:45.62\00:18:49.22
PROBABLY EVEN HURTS YOU
TO THINK ABOUT THAT. A MOUSE.
00:18:49.22\00:18:52.33
YOU DON'T WANT IT TO HAPPEN TO
A MOUSE AND YET, MANY CHRISTIANS
00:18:52.33\00:18:57.87
BELIEVE THAT GOD IS GOING TO
DO THAT AND MUCH WORSE TO HUMANS
00:18:57.87\00:19:00.50
FOREVER. THINK ABOUT
THAT. AND, YOU KNOW, IF YOU SAY
00:19:00.50\00:19:05.31
ANYTHING AGAINST IT PEOPLE SAY,
'YOU DON'T BELIEVE THE BIBLE!'
00:19:05.31\00:19:07.71
SURE YOU DO. NOW,
THERE ARE SOME VERSES THAT
00:19:07.71\00:19:09.71
ARE CONFUSING AND
WE'RE GOING TO GET TO THOSE.
00:19:09.71\00:19:11.81
QUESTION #13: DOESN'T THE
BIBLE PHRASE UNQUENCHABLE FIRE
00:19:11.81\00:19:16.22
INDICATE THAT THE
FIRE NEVER GOES OUT?
00:19:16.22\00:19:19.09
WELL, NO. WHAT
DOES IT MEAN TO QUENCH?
00:19:19.09\00:19:24.16
QUENCH IS A VERB
THAT MEANS TO EXTINGUISH.
00:19:24.16\00:19:27.96
LET ME GIVE YOU AN EXAMPLE:
INTERPRET THE BIBLE WITH THE
00:19:27.96\00:19:31.60
BIBLE. THERE'S A RULE.
LET THE BIBLE BE ITS OWN
00:19:31.60\00:19:34.77
EXPOSITOR. IT
DOESN'T CONTRADICT ITSELF.
00:19:34.77\00:19:36.91
YOU CAN READ, FOR INSTANCE, IN
MATTHEW CHAPTER 3, VERSE 12, IT
00:19:36.91\00:19:41.28
SAYS, "HE WILL THOROUGHLY PURGE
HIS FLOOR, AND GATHER HIS WHEAT
00:19:41.28\00:19:44.88
INTO THE GARNER; BUT HE WILL
BURN UP" - WHAT DOES BURN UP
00:19:44.88\00:19:48.95
MEAN? GONE -
"HE WILL BURN UP THE
00:19:48.95\00:19:52.15
CHAFF" - SPEAKING OF THE WICKED
- "WITH UNQUENCHABLE FIRE."
00:19:52.15\00:19:55.86
THAT MEANS NO ONE IS GOING TO BE
ABLE TO EXTINGUISH THE FIRE THAT
00:19:55.86\00:19:59.43
GOD IS GOING TO USE
TO PUNISH THE WICKED.
00:19:59.43\00:20:02.30
HAVE YOU EVER SEEN - THE HOUSE
CATCHES ON FIRE - OR HEAVEN
00:20:02.30\00:20:05.03
FORBID IF A PERSON'S CLOTHES
CATCH ON FIRE WHILE THEY'RE
00:20:05.03\00:20:07.64
COOKING? QUICKLY YOU QUENCH IT.
00:20:07.64\00:20:09.50
BUT THERE'LL BE NOBODY
QUENCHING THE LAKE OF FIRE.
00:20:09.50\00:20:14.11
ARE WE GOING TO SIT ON THE WALLS
OF THE NEW JERUSALEM AND LOOK
00:20:14.11\00:20:17.01
OUT ON THE WICKED
BURNING THROUGH CEASELESS AGES -
00:20:17.01\00:20:20.15
EATING POPCORN
FOR ENTERTAINMENT?
00:20:20.15\00:20:22.38
(LAUGHTER) THAT'S SOME IDEA -
SOME PEOPLE THINK THAT GOD HAS A
00:20:22.38\00:20:27.76
TORTURE CHAMBER SOMEWHERE WHERE,
YOU KNOW, YOU PAY ADMISSION YOU
00:20:27.76\00:20:32.66
GET TO WATCH THE WICKED
BURN. YOUR ENEMIES - YEP.
00:20:32.66\00:20:35.33
THEY'RE STILL BURNING.
FOREVER AND EVER AND EVER.
00:20:35.33\00:20:37.47
NO, WHEN IT SAYS THAT THE FIRE
IS NOT QUENCHED, IT SIMPLY MEANS
00:20:37.47\00:20:43.04
THERE ARE NOT GOING TO
BE ANY FIREMEN IN HELL.
00:20:43.04\00:20:47.04
THERE IS NOBODY GOING AROUND -
NO FIREFIGHTERS PUTTING OUT THE
00:20:47.04\00:20:50.08
FIRE. NOBODY
EXTINGUISHING THE FIRE.
00:20:50.08\00:20:53.08
THEY ARE GOING TO BURN,
UNINTERRUPTED UNTIL THEY ARE
00:20:53.08\00:20:57.09
CONSUMED. THAT'S
THE WORD THAT IS USED.
00:20:57.09\00:21:00.39
IF YOU QUENCH A FIRE BEFORE IT
STOPS - YOU PUT OUT A LOG BEFORE
00:21:00.39\00:21:03.79
IT'S BURNED UP, YOU
CAN BURN IT AGAIN LATER.
00:21:03.79\00:21:06.53
GOD IS SAYING WHAT HAPPENS
TO THE WICKED IS - THERE IS NO
00:21:06.53\00:21:09.70
ESSENCE LEFT. IT IS BURNED UP.
00:21:09.70\00:21:11.43
MATTER OF FACT, MALACHI
4: IT LEAVES THEM NEITHER
00:21:11.43\00:21:13.77
ROOT NOR
BRANCH. NOTHING IS LEFT.
00:21:13.77\00:21:16.24
QUESTION #14: DOESN'T THE PHRASE
EVERLASTING FIRE MEAN UNENDING?
00:21:16.24\00:21:22.51
LET'S FIND OUT WHAT THE WORD
MEANS, AGAIN, LETTING THE BIBLE
00:21:22.51\00:21:26.98
INTERPRET ITSELF. JUDE 7, "EVEN
AS SODOM AND GOMORRAH...ARE SET
00:21:26.98\00:21:31.95
FORTH FOR AN EXAMPLE, SUFFERING
THE VENGEANCE OF ETERNAL FIRE."
00:21:31.95\00:21:37.49
THE FIRE THAT BURNED THE CITIES
OF SODOM AND GOMORRAH BURNT THEM
00:21:37.49\00:21:40.80
UP. THERE IS NOTHING LEFT
ANYMORE. THE RESULTS OF THE FIRE
00:21:40.80\00:21:44.30
OF THE WICKED ARE ETERNAL.
THAT'S WHAT IT'S SAYING.
00:21:44.30\00:21:48.20
GOD IS SAYING 'SIN IS A DEADLY
CONTAGIOUS DISEASE. I LOVE YOU.
00:21:48.20\00:21:51.81
I DON'T WANT YOU TO PERISH, BUT
THE DISEASE IS GOING TO TAKE YOU
00:21:51.81\00:21:54.84
IF YOU DON'T COME TO ME.'
HE'LL HAVE NO ALTERNATIVE.
00:21:54.84\00:21:59.65
HE CAN'T LET IT SPREAD AMONG HIS
OTHER CHILDREN IN THE UNIVERSE.
00:21:59.65\00:22:02.75
IT'S GOING TO BREAK HIS HEART.
BUT THE WICKED WILL BE PUNISHED.
00:22:02.75\00:22:05.59
THERE IS A LAKE OF FIRE, BUT IT
DOESN'T BURN FOREVER AND EVER.
00:22:05.59\00:22:09.09
QUESTION #15: WHEN REVELATION
20, VERSE 10 SAYS THAT THE
00:22:09.09\00:22:13.36
WICKED WILL BE TORMENTED FOREVER
AND EVER, DOESN'T THAT INDICATE
00:22:13.36\00:22:16.16
ENDLESS TIME? NOW
THIS IS ONE OF THE VERSES
00:22:16.16\00:22:20.44
THAT I WILL ADMITTEDLY SAY
CAUSES PEOPLE SOME CONCERN.
00:22:20.44\00:22:23.81
AGAIN, LET THE
BIBLE INTERPRET ITSELF.
00:22:23.81\00:22:26.37
IT SAYS THAT YOU COULD HAVE A
HEBREW SLAVE; AT THE END OF SIX
00:22:26.37\00:22:29.84
YEARS, IF YOUR SLAVE LOVED YOU
AND HE WANTED TO STAY, YOU WENT
00:22:29.84\00:22:32.95
THROUGH THIS RITUAL AND IT
SAID HE WILL SERVE HIM FOREVER.
00:22:32.95\00:22:36.48
HOW LONG DID THAT
MEAN? UNTIL HE DIED.
00:22:36.48\00:22:38.79
WHEN HANNAH BROUGHT SAMUEL
TO THE TEMPLE SHE SAID, 'HE WILL
00:22:38.79\00:22:41.89
ABIDE HERE FOREVER.'
HOW LONG DID THAT MEAN?
00:22:41.89\00:22:45.46
UNTIL HE DIED. IN 1
SAMUEL 1:28 SHE EXPLAINS IT
00:22:45.46\00:22:49.56
HERSELF AND SAYS,
'AS LONG AS HE LIVES'.
00:22:49.56\00:22:51.27
THE TERM 'FOREVER' MEANT FOR
THE REMAINDER OF YOUR EXISTENCE.
00:22:51.27\00:22:55.50
SO WHEN IT TALKS ABOUT THE
WICKED BURNING FOREVER AND EVER,
00:22:55.50\00:22:58.81
THE WORD THERE
USED IN GREEK IS EON.
00:22:58.81\00:23:00.94
FOREVER AND EVER IS A BIBLICAL
EXPRESSION WHICH MEANS UNTIL THE
00:23:00.94\00:23:03.98
END OF THE AGE, NOT NECESSARILY
AN INFINITE UNENDING LENGTH OF
00:23:03.98\00:23:09.28
TIME. QUESTION
#16: AFTER SIN AND
00:23:09.28\00:23:12.55
SINNERS ARE DESTROYED, WHAT
WILL JESUS DO FOR HIS PEOPLE?
00:23:12.55\00:23:16.32
YOU CAN READ HERE IN 2
PETER CHAPTER 3, VERSE 13,
00:23:16.32\00:23:20.00
"NEVERTHELESS WE, ACCORDING
TO HIS PROMISE, LOOK FOR NEW
00:23:20.00\00:23:23.77
HEAVENS AND A NEW EARTH,
WHEREIN DWELLS RIGHTEOUSNESS."
00:23:23.77\00:23:29.04
THERE'S NO MORE PAIN THERE.
YOU READ IN REVELATION 21,
00:23:29.04\00:23:33.31
VERSE 4, "AND GOD
SHALL WIPE AWAY ALL
00:23:33.31\00:23:35.81
TEARS FROM THEIR EYES; AND THERE
SHALL BE NO MORE DEATH, NEITHER
00:23:35.81\00:23:40.25
SORROW, NOR CRYING, NEITHER
SHALL THERE BE ANY MORE" - WHAT?
00:23:40.25\00:23:45.85
- "PAIN:" - NO MORE PAIN - "FOR
THE FORMER THINGS ARE PASSED
00:23:45.85\00:23:49.99
AWAY...BEHOLD, I MAKE
ALL THINGS NEW" GOD SAYS.
00:23:49.99\00:23:53.23
IS GOD GOING TO IMMORTALIZE
SATAN AND SINNERS IN A TORTURE
00:23:53.23\00:23:56.33
CHAMBER SOMEWHERE IN THE COSMOS?
NO, NOT THEIR BODIES, NOT THEIR
00:23:56.33\00:24:01.20
SOULS. HE IS
GOING TO MAKE ALL THINGS
00:24:01.20\00:24:02.90
NEW. THERE ARE NO HOLDOVERS - NO
00:24:02.90\00:24:05.97
CHANCE OF THE
DEVIL ESCAPING AGAIN.
00:24:05.97\00:24:08.44
QUESTION #17: WILL THE
SIN PROBLEM EVER RISE AGAIN?
00:24:08.44\00:24:12.45
IT TELLS US IN THE BOOK OF NAHUM
1, VERSE 9, "... AFFLICTION
00:24:12.45\00:24:17.49
SHALL NOT RISE UP THE SECOND
TIME." PRAISE GOD! THIS TERRIBLE
00:24:17.49\00:24:22.89
INTERRUPTION IN GOD'S PERFECT
UNIVERSE, FOR THE LAST SIX
00:24:22.89\00:24:26.76
THOUSAND YEARS, IS GOING TO
DEMONSTRATE FOR ALL ETERNITY
00:24:26.76\00:24:30.17
THAT GOD IS LOVE AND NO ONE
WILL EVER HAVE TO DOUBT HIS LOVE
00:24:30.17\00:24:32.63
AGAIN. IS THERE A HELLFIRE? IS
THERE? YES. IS IT BURNING YET?
00:24:32.63\00:24:37.74
>>NO. >>NO.
00:24:37.74\00:24:39.51
DOES IT BURN FOREVER? >>NO.
00:24:39.51\00:24:42.38
>>WHAT DOES THE BIBLE SAY
WILL HAPPEN TO THE WICKED?
00:24:42.38\00:24:44.15
THEY ARE CONSUMED - THESE ARE
BIBLE WORDS - THEY ARE DEVOURED;
00:24:44.15\00:24:47.75
THEY ARE BURNT UP; THEY PERISH;
NEVER SHALL THEY BE ANYMORE;
00:24:47.75\00:24:52.89
WHAT OTHER LANGUAGE IS GOD GOING
TO USE TO EXPLAIN THIS - THAT HE
00:24:52.89\00:24:56.39
WANTS TO MAKE IT
AS CLEAR AS IT CAN BE?
00:24:56.39\00:24:59.09
AND THE REASON IT'S IMPORTANT
TO UNDERSTAND THIS SUBJECT,
00:24:59.09\00:25:02.10
FRIENDS, IS BECAUSE
GOD WANTS US TO TRUST HIM.
00:25:02.10\00:25:04.70
GOD WANTS US TO LOVE HIM.
YES, WE'RE TO REVERE AND HONOR
00:25:04.70\00:25:08.30
GOD AND FEAR HIM IN THAT
RESPECT, BUT HE DOESN'T WANT US
00:25:08.30\00:25:11.14
TO LIVE OUR LIVES IN TERROR.
THE BIBLE SAYS THE FEARFUL WILL
00:25:11.14\00:25:13.74
BE CAST INTO THE LAKE OF FIRE.
HE DOESN'T WANT US TO LIVE BY
00:25:13.74\00:25:16.85
FEAR. HE WANTS
US TO LIVE BY FAITH.
00:25:16.85\00:25:18.78
AMEN? >>AMEN. (MUSIC)
00:25:18.78\00:25:25.09
>>EVERYONE KNOWS THE
BIBLE'S CLEAR THERE ARE ONLY TWO
00:25:25.09\00:25:27.32
DESTINIES: HEAVEN AND
HELL. BUT THERE ARE MORE
00:25:27.32\00:25:30.26
MISUNDERSTANDINGS OVER THE
SUBJECT OF HELL THAN VIRTUALLY
00:25:30.26\00:25:33.03
ANY OTHER BIBLE DOCTRINE.
THE CONCEPT OF THIS PLACE OF
00:25:33.03\00:25:36.40
NEVER-ENDING
TORMENT IS NOT BIBLICAL.
