THE ADVENT TRUTH
If the wages of sin is death (Romans 6:23), not eternal life in torment — why do so many believe God’s justice means torturing people forever?
That teaching doesn’t come from Scripture. It comes from paganism — from the same lie Satan told in Eden: “Ye shall not surely die.” (Genesis 3:4) The serpent’s doctrine says sinners never truly die; they just live on somewhere else — even in flames. But the Bible says the soul that sins shall die (Ezekiel 18:4).
* Ecclesiastes 9:5-6 says “the dead know not anything.”
* Psalm 37:20 says “the wicked shall perish… into smoke shall they consume away.”
* Malachi 4:1-3 says the wicked will be “stubble” and “ashes under the soles of your feet.”
* John 3:16 says those who reject Christ perish, not live forever in agony.
If hellfire burned eternally, sin would never end. Evil would exist forever in God’s universe — and that would make Satan immortal! The true God of love brings sin to a final end (Nahum 1:9). The fire is eternal in effect, not duration. Just as Sodom’s fire (Jude 7) was called “eternal,” though it burned out long ago, so the lake of fire (Revelation 20:9) consumes completely — it does not torture endlessly.
Christ bore the full penalty for sin — not eternal torture, but death (Romans 5:8; Isaiah 53:5). To claim the lost must burn forever is to say the cross wasn’t enough. The truth is, our God is both just and merciful. Sin’s wages are real — total death — but His gift is eternal life (Romans 6:23).
The doctrine of an eternally burning hell paints God as a tyrant, not a Father. But Scripture reveals a Savior who ends suffering once and for all — “Behold, I make all things new.” (Revelation 21:5)
Truth wins when we read every verse, not just tradition.
