Nobody suffer after death , they die and become a corpse ... Dead people are in their graves .


I never said they will suffer after the 1st death, I said the 2nd death. U claim death means to cease to exist but the 2nd death proves u wrong due to the fact people will suffer after it.

The point is "death" does not mean what u claim means .

Cuz If it meant what u claim then people wud not suffer after the 2nd death.

Lol , you are confessing that your bible contradict itself .

Bible : the wicked will be no more . Meaning of no more " no longer exist" .

Here is another


" the dead dont know anything... For there is no work nor knowledge [b]in the GRAVE , where you re going "
EccL 9:5,10 !

Youuuu are going to the grave . grin


Ah when sum1 realizes they been proven wrong. grin

They get desperate and start saying the bible contradicts itself base on their interpretation.

U no u been proven wrong and clearly can't take it grin

Erm u one contradicting scriptures grin , u believe deaths means to cease to exist but in Revelation the 2nd death clearly does not say that , cuz we no those who experience the 2nd death will suffer for all eternity meaning they still exist.

U CAN'T SUFFER AND NOT EXIST, SO DEATH DOES NOT MEAN TO CEASE TO EXIST.

U MUST EXIST IN ORDER TO SUFFER.

Bro , death suffers the second death and yet we are LATER told that it cease to exist ? Can you throw light on this Revelation 20:14 ; 21:4

she’ol Is the place where they go

I use the original hebrew word cuz the English translation is assuming nd interpreting that it means hell/grave but the ancient hebrews view this place as a unknown place different then the grave.

Am waiting for your response bro

1st of all The book of Revelation is a book full of symbolism and imagery representing evil and good.

"Another book was opened, which is the book of life. The dead were judged according to what they had done as recorded in the books. 13 The sea gave up the dead that were in it, and death and Hades gave up the dead that were in them, and each person was judged according to what they had done. 14 Then death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. The lake of fire is the second death. 15 Anyone whose name was not found written in the book of life was thrown into the lake of fire"

In context it's clear that Hades and death represents those whose names is not written in the book of life.

Nw u can say I'm misinterpreting things but then again that just means the verse is open for interpretation even tho most bible scholars wud agree with me, if not all.

Sheol is a place of inactivity ( psalm 115:17 ; pslm 6:5 , ecclesistes 9:4-6 , 10 ) , even Jesus went there .


- how can death and HELL represent those whose names are not in the book of life ?

Rev 20:14" and death and HELL are cast into the lake of fire" . Hell itself was cast into the lake of fire , then this mean hell will suffer forever in the lake of fire ?

If you call it symbolism , how then are we sure that the lake of fire itself in which HELL is thrown is not symbolic ?

As the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without deeds is dead." James 2:26

Only way this could happen is if the spirit separates from the body.


Also is spiritual death :

"As for you, you were DEAD in your transgressions and sins, in which you used to LIVE when you followed the ways of this world and of the ruler of the kingdom of the air, the spirit who is now at work in those who are disobedient. All of us also lived among them at one time, gratifying the cravings of our sinful nature and following its desires and thoughts. Like the rest, we were by nature objects of wrath. But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us ALIVE with Christ even when we were DEAD in transgressions–it is by grace you have been saved." Ephesians 2:1-5

Clearly not referring to physical death.

And since we dead in our sins, God intimate presence is separated from us and therefore :

"Then they will cry to the LORD, but He will not hear them; He will even hide His face from them at that time, because they have been evil in their deeds." Micah 3:4

"Your eyes are too pure to behold evil, and you cannot look on wrongdoing..." Habakkuk 1:13

I'm sure cuz it's obvious that the bible teaches the wicked will suffer in hell for all eternity.

And I'm pretty sure Hades and hell represents evildoers since the book of Revelation is full of symbolism and imagery.

Sheol is where the dead go but does it make any sense to say people who don't exist anymore go to a place that exists.

Obviously being dead does not mean to cease to exist for if it did there would be no need for a place like Sheol.

For that wud mean Sheol actually has nothing in it.

Brother , None of this said death is separation of soul and body .

You are yet to produce that scripture .

@ underlined ... Spirit in that context is in our nostrils , our breath ( job 27:3 ) , even animals hve it in their body .

" the wicked will be no more"

MizJanet- means after death they no longer exist meaning death means to cease to exist.

If this meant that the wicked will no longer exist after death u have a problem since the same psalm say the righteous will dwell in the land 4eva , BUT WE NO DEATH COMES TO ALL.

The same psalm says :

"Turn from evil and do good;
    then you will dwell in the land forever"

Does this mean the wicked will exist forever if they repent? For that to be true that wud mean no1 dies since u said death means to cease to exist but since the wicked can repent they can exist 4eva

Hahahaha grin again showing hw pathetic and false ur interpretation of " the wicked will be no more"

Again the bible proves u wrong and shows death does not mean cease to exist.

U have a spirit in ur body currently right?

So wen is the moment u die? It occurs wen the spirit is no longer in the body and wat does that mean, it means it must separate from ur body.

ERV- "David knew this before it happened. That is why he said this about that future king: ‘He was not left in the place of death. His body did not rot in the grave.’ David was talking about the Messiah rising from death"


NLT- "David was looking into the future and speaking of the Messiah’s resurrection. He was saying that God would not leave him among the dead or allow his body to rot in the grave"

NIV "Seeing what was to come, he spoke of the resurrection of the Messiah, that he was not abandoned to the realm of the dead, nor did his body see decay"

Hades is the greek translation from the hebrew word Sheol which refers to the place where the dead goes.

WAT ? U completely twisting scripture and still ignoring other passages which prove u wrong.

"And the devil, who deceived them, was thrown into the lake of burning sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet had been thrown. They will be tormented day and night for ever and ever" Revelation 20:10

"Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels" Matthew 25:41

DOES THIS SAY THEY WILL CEASE TO EXIST ? Come on guy they will suffer for all eternity , u can't be serious with ur interpretation.

Revelation 21:4

Let's read the context shall we :

He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.”

5 He who was seated on the throne said, “I am making everything new!” Then he said, “Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.”

 He said to me: “It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To the thirsty I will give water without cost from the spring of the water of life. 7 Those who are victorious will inherit all this, and I will be their God and they will be my children. 8 BUT the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liarsthey will be consigned to the fiery lake of burning sulfur, THIS IS THE SECOND DEATH.” Revelation 21: 4-8

Obviously the above passage proves ur interpretation is completely incorrect.
