• Hell is a real place (Matthew 23:15; 5:22; Luke 12:5) • God doesn’t want anyone to end up there (Ezekiel 33:11; Matthew 18:9) • God, in love, sent a Savior (John 3:16; 16:27) • We choose where we end up (Luke 12:5; 2 Peter 2:6; Malachi 4:3) • We can avoid hell–the second death (Revelation 2:11; 20:14)

My Impressions

reflection7 items

Choose from the following phrases those which best describe your impression of each of the statements below.

l17-i-s1statement→ choice
1

Some believe hell burns forever while others say it comes to an end. Since God does not lie or contradict Himself both can’t be true!

Numbers 23:19; Malachi 3:6; Hebrews 13:8; John 10:35 quoted at worksheet 1, 2, 3, 4

l17-i-s2statement→ choice
2

Hell is God’s cosmic method of destroying sin. For those who love and obey Him, this act of judgment brings great relief and makes eternity safe and happy.

Ezekiel 33:11; Ezekiel 18:31; Revelation 6:10; Revelation 16:5-7 quoted at worksheet 25

l17-i-s3statement→ choice
3

The Bible calls the destruction of the wicked God’s strange act because He never wanted people to die. Death, even of the wicked, brings God no pleasure.

Isaiah 28:21; Ezekiel 33:11 quoted at worksheet 25

l17-i-s4statement→ choice
4

We don’t have to wonder when hell happens. Jesus taught that hell occurs at the end after the resurrection of damnation as part of His final act of Judgment.

John 5:28, 29; Matthew 3:12; Revelation 20:14 quoted at worksheet 5, 7

l17-i-s5statement→ choice
5

While the results or punishment of Hell (eternal death or the second death) will be “everlasting” the actual burning will not.

John 3:16; Romans 6:23; Revelation 20:6; Matthew 25:46; Jude 1:7; 2 Peter 2:6; Isaiah 66:24; Malachi 4:3 quoted at worksheet 8, 12, 14, 15, 24

l17-i-s6statement→ choice
6

The term "forever," is used 56 times in the Bible in connection with things that have already ended. Prophecy clearly indicates that Satan, like Hell, will come to an end as well.

Ezekiel 28:18; Ezekiel 28:19; Ezekiel 26:21; Ezekiel 27:36 quoted at worksheet 19, 20

l17-i-s7statement→ choice

The teachings of Jesus make it absolutely clear that God does not allow someone to burn forever in pain. They perish.

John 3:16 quoted at worksheet 21

Choices

decision1 item

The closing question, put as the guide puts it.

l17-dcommitment→ affirm

Satan would love for us to view God as sadistic, arbitrarily destroying people in a tormenting fire that never ends. I choose to believe what the Bible says, that out of God’s love, hell, Satan, and all sin will come to a complete end.
