Annihilationism is taught in the bible

[FONT=&quot]Annihilationism (also known as extinctionism or destructionism) is a belief that after the final judgment some human beings will be totally destroyed so as to not exist, or that their consciousness will be extinguished, rather than suffer everlasting torment in hell. Annihilationism is directly related to the doctrine of conditional immortality, the idea that a human soul is not immortal unless it is given eternal life by God.

[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Etymology and Germanic mythology[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Hel (1889) by [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Johannes Gehrts[/FONT][FONT=&quot].[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]An illustration by [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Doré[/FONT][FONT=&quot] of [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Dante[/FONT][FONT=&quot]’s 6th circle of [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Hell[/FONT][FONT=&quot], from the [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Divine Comedy[/FONT][FONT=&quot][/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]The modern English word Hell is derived from Old English hel, helle (about 725 AD to refer to a nether world of the dead) reaching into the [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Anglo-Saxon pagan period[/FONT][FONT=&quot], and ultimately from [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Proto-Germanic[/FONT][FONT=&quot] *halja, meaning "one who covers up or hides something" The word has [/FONT][FONT=&quot]cognates[/FONT][FONT=&quot] in Latin (see verb cēlō, "to hide") and in related [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Germanic languages[/FONT][FONT=&quot] such as [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Old Frisian[/FONT][FONT=&quot] helle, hille, [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Old Saxon[/FONT][FONT=&quot] hellja, [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Middle Dutch[/FONT][FONT=&quot] helle (modern Dutch hel), [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Old High German[/FONT][FONT=&quot] helle (Modern German Hölle), [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Danish[/FONT][FONT=&quot], [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Norwegian[/FONT][FONT=&quot] and [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Swedish[/FONT][FONT=&quot] helvede/helvete (hel + [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Old Norse[/FONT][FONT=&quot] vitti, "punishment" whence the [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Icelandic[/FONT][FONT=&quot] [/FONT][FONT=&quot]víti[/FONT][FONT=&quot] "hell"), and [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Gothic[/FONT][FONT=&quot] halja. Subsequently, the word was used to transfer a pagan concept to Christian theology and its vocabulary (however, for the Judeo-Christian origin of the concept see [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Gehenna[/FONT][FONT=&quot]).[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Some have theorized that English word hell is derived from Old Norse [/FONT][FONT=&quot]hel[/FONT][FONT=&quot]. However, this is very unlikely as hel appears in Old English before the Viking invasions. Furthermore, the word has cognates in all the other Germanic languages and has a Proto-Germanic origin. Among other sources, the [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Poetic Edda[/FONT][FONT=&quot], compiled from earlier traditional sources in the 13th century, and the [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Prose Edda[/FONT][FONT=&quot], written in the 13th century by [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Snorri Sturluson[/FONT][FONT=&quot], provide information regarding the beliefs of the [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Norse pagans[/FONT][FONT=&quot], including a being named [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Hel[/FONT][FONT=&quot], who is described as ruling over an [/FONT][FONT=&quot]underworld[/FONT][FONT=&quot] location of the [/FONT][FONT=&quot]same name[/FONT][FONT=&quot]. [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Development of Hell Levels in the Middle Ages [/FONT][FONT=&quot][/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]The conceptions of hell described by the writers of the second-century and third-century church continued to be embellished throughout the rest of the millennium until the middle ages. Roman Catholics in the middle ages developed a series of levels in hell, all with no Biblical basis: [/FONT][FONT=&quot][/FONT]
· [FONT=&quot]Infernus[/FONT][FONT=&quot], the place of torment for the unrighteous damned and the demons. This is the place one most often thinks of when one hears the word "Hell."[/FONT]
· [FONT=&quot]Purgatory[/FONT][FONT=&quot], where the saved souls go to be purged of the temporal effects of their sins[/FONT]
· [FONT=&quot]the Limbo of the Infants (Limbus Infantium)[/FONT][FONT=&quot], a place of perfect, natural, subjective happiness to which those who died before Baptism (and so are denied the Beatific Vision) but who have not committed personal sins (so don't warrant punishment) go. [/FONT]
· [FONT=&quot]the Limbo of the Patriarchs (Limbus Patrum)[/FONT][FONT=&quot], where the righteous who lived before Jesus came to earth went. It is this part of "Hell" that Christ descended into. It no longer exists. [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Hades[/FONT][FONT=&quot] was the ancient Greek god of the underworld. [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Hades[/FONT][FONT=&quot] ( /ˈheɪdiːz/; from Greek ᾍδης (older form Ἀϝίδης), Hadēs, originally Ἅιδης, Haidēs or Άΐδης, Aidēs (Doric Ἀΐδας Aidas), meaning "the unseen") was the ancient Greek god of the underworld. The genitive ᾍδου, Haidou, was an elision to denote locality: "[the house/dominion] of Hades". Eventually, the nominative came to designate the abode of the dead.

In Greek mythology, Hades is the oldest male child of Cronus and Rhea. According to myth, he and his brothers Zeus and Poseidon defeated the Titans and claimed rulership over the cosmos, ruling the underworld, air, and sea, respectively; the solid earth, long the province of Gaia, was available to all three concurrently.

Hades was also called "Plouton" (Greek: Πλούτων, gen.: Πλούτωνος, meaning "Rich One"), a name which the Romans Latinized as Pluto. The Romans would associate Hades/Pluto with their own chthonic gods, Dis Pater and Orcus. The corresponding Etruscan god was Aita. Symbols associated with him are the Helm of Darkness, the bident and the three-headed dog, Cerberus.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Tar-ta-rus (tartarus) [[ Gr Tartaros ]] Gr. Myth. 1.[/FONT][FONT=&quot] An infernal abyss below Hades, where Zeus hurls the rebel Titans, later a place of punishment for the demons and devils. (mentioned only once in the Bible)

Ha-des (hadez) [[Gr Haides ]] 1 Gr. Myth. a. The home of the dead, beneath the earth. b The god of the underworld. 2. Bible: The state or resting place of the dead: name used in some modern translations of the New Testament

She-ol (sheol) [[Heb shaal , to dig]] A place in the depths of the earth conceived of as the dwelling of the dead. Note: In the KJV about half of scriptures are translated as hell, the other half as grave.

Gehenna: Mentioned twelve or thirteen times in the bible. Gehenna: Referring to the Valley of Hinnom, or Gehenna which is the city dump outside the walls of Jerusalem.

Topheth is believed to be a location in Jerusalem, in the Valley of Hinnom, where the Canaanites sacrificed children to the god Moloch by burning them alive.

[/FONT][FONT=&quot]Isaiah 30:33[/FONT][FONT=&quot]
Topheth has long been prepared; it has been made ready for the king. Its fire pit has been made deep and wide, with an abundance of fire and wood; the breath of the LORD, like a stream of burning sulfur, sets it ablaze.[/FONT]

Satan's future: "You defiled your sanctuaries by the multitude of your iniquities, by the iniquity of your trading, therefore I brought fire from your midst, it devoured you and I turned you to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all who saw you. All who knew you among the peoples are astonished at you, you have become a horror and shall be no more forever." (Ezekiel 28:18-19)

I have seen all your posts in this thread, but I have not read all of them. I read a book recently by Steve Gregg about three views of hell. If you are open to learning, I think that what you are doing here is good. If you already have the answers you are further along than me. I have read the Bible. I believe that when a person dies they are buried and that they will be resurrected. I do not know if eternal life begins when a person is born again or when they are raised to life again in the resurrection. I do not know if the terminology of a general resurrection is the right terminology. There is a resurrection of the righteous and the wicked, the just and the unjust. Is it life and judgment?

The Hebrew word for hell, or the word that is translated as hell in many Bibles, is sheol.

What you do not want to experience is the second death. The second death is the lake of fire. Even Hades is thrown or cast into the lake of fire.

Shalom.

Actually it is death and the grave that is done away with. Even the condemned will be resurrected to face judgment.

Hell was a good money maker for the Papacy. And that is why Hell and torment was added to the bible. That again is why I call Hell the serpent doctrine.

Genesis 2:17
...but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat of it you will surely die."

Genesis 3:4
"You will not surely die," the serpent said to the woman.

[FONT=&quot]The attitude of the Catholic Church toward paganism is best summed up by Pope Gregory the Great, in his words to a missionary: “You must not interfere with any traditional belief or religious observance that can be harmonized with Christianity.” [/FONT][FONT=&quot][/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Not only were the Congregations divided by Gnosticism, but enticed by philosophy and paganism also, and there were geographic divisions as well. [/FONT][FONT=&quot][/FONT]

I am a convert to Judaism. I do not eat meat and dairy in the same meal, which agrees with or makes me Orthodox.

I am against Paganism. I am against the Catholic Church. I do not know if Paganism exists in the Catholic Church. Probably. Like with Mary worship.

According to myth, he and his brothers Zeus and Poseidon defeated the Titans and claimed rulership over the cosmos, ruling the underworld, air, and sea, respectively; the solid earth, long the province of Gaia, was available to all three concurrently.

Hades was also called "Plouton" (Greek: Πλούτων, gen.: Πλούτωνος, meaning "Rich One"), a name which the Romans Latinized as Pluto. The Romans would associate Hades/Pluto with their own chthonic gods, Dis Pater and Orcus. The corresponding Etruscan god was Aita. Symbols associated with him are the Helm of Darkness, the bident and the three-headed dog, Cerberus.

I do not agree with any of this. I only know that the word Hades is a Greek word. It is sometimes translated as hell.

Shalom.

Shalom.

I am a convert to Judaism. I do not eat meat and dairy in the same meal, which agrees with or makes me Orthodox.

I am against Paganism. I am against the Catholic Church. I do not know if Paganism exists in the Catholic Church. Probably. Like with Mary worship.

Shalom.

Matthew 11:23
And you, Capernaum, will you be lifted to the heavens? No, you will go down to Hades. For if the miracles that were performed in you had been performed in Sodom, it would have remained to this day.

Matthew 16:18
And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it.

Luke 10:15
And you, Capernaum, will you be lifted to the heavens? No, you will go down to Hades.

Luke 16:23
In Hades, where he was in torment, he looked up and saw Abraham far away, with Lazarus by his side.

Revelation 1:18
I am the Living One; I was dead, and now look, I am alive for ever and ever! And I hold the keys of death and Hades.

Revelation 6:8
I looked, and there before me was a pale horse! Its rider was named Death, and Hades was following close behind him. They were given power over a fourth of the earth to kill by sword, famine and plague, and by the wild beasts of the earth.

Revelation 20:13
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.

Revelation 20:14
Then death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. The lake of fire is the second death.

Where do you find the word Hades in the Old Testament, you don't.

I read, study, observe, and teach Torah. I want to know nothing of Catholicism and the Catholic Church. I wish I never knew about the Catholic Church. But alas, I am a live and the Catholic Church exists. Maybe it will fade into oblivion, in favor of God's commandments.

Shalom.
