can santa clause be eternally punished ? why?
No. There is no Santa Claus. However, when an actual person is destroyed, never to exist again, that punishment is eternal.
Mat 13:49 So it will be at the end of the age. The angels will come out and separate the evil from the righteous
Mat 13:50 and throw them into the fiery furnace. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
This verse does not say that the wicked will be tortured for all eternity in the furnace. What kind of defective furnace doesn't completely burn up what is put into it? This verse confirms my position that the wicked are destroyed. Of course the wicked weep and gnash their teeth at the furnace, they are about to be destroyed. You are reading your doctrine into this verse, a process known as "eisegesis".
Mat 22:13 Then the king said to the attendants, 'Bind him hand and foot and cast him into the outer darkness. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.'
This verse also does not say that the wicked will be tortured alive forever in hell.
wicked will be destroyed from the earth, yes Acts 3:23
Quoting a verse which says that the wicked will be destroyed really does nothing to prove that the wicked will remain UNdestroyed forever being tortured alive in hell.
You claim that it is a lie that I believe what the Bible says, yet I showed you that I do. For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believes in him shall not PERISH but will have eternal life.
How dare you claim that I lied, when I haven't. It is a sin to bear false witness against others.
it is not about popular it is about truth
When the doctrine of eternal torture is defended, It is always claimed that it is true because it is the most popular doctrine concerning the fate of the wicked. If it is about truth, then you should accept the doctrine that says that the wicked will perish, since this is what the Bible specifically states, even if the doctrine that the wages of sin is death is not as popular as the doctrine that the wages of sin is hellish torture.
too bad you went with the bible is false
This sentence doesn't even make any sense. Are you attempting to say that I believe the Bible is false? You are wrong. I believe that the Bible is true. The Bible says that the wicked will perish. Do you deny this? I believe that the wicked will perish. Therefore I believe that the Bible is true. If you do not believe that the wicked will perish and instead believe that the wicked will live forever being tortured, then it is you who believes that the Bible is false.
no you reject the simple plain language of the bible
No, I believe the simple plain language of the Bible which specifically states that the wicked will perish, the wicked will be destroyed and the wicked will be no more.
so you can feel comfortable about those who are perishing
I simply believe what the Bible says about those who are perishing, that they are PERISHING, that means that they do not live forever in hell being tortured alive. If I believe what the Bible says because it makes me "feel comfortable" then how about you? Do you only believe in eternal conscious torture because it makes you feel good? No, the fact is that I believe the wicked will perish simply because I have read in the Bible that "the wicked will perish" and "the wicked will be no more".
That's very nice of you to say, but it isn't true. I just tell you what the Word of God says. If I seem nicer to you than a god that you think will torture people for all eternity, then the problem is that you do not have an accurate idea of who God really is.
therefore for no given reason you reject the bible
I don't reject the Bible, and you have not shown me one verse that I reject. In fact, why don't you make an attempt to show me a verse from the Bible that says "The wicked will go to hell when they die where they will be tortured alive forever while they are dead"? I will bet you that you can't show me a verse that says that.
But I can certainly show you a verse that says the wicked will perish and another that says the wicked will be no more, if you are interested at all in what the Bible says.
I think that your problem is that you reject what the Bible says. Why is that? Is it because you prefer your doctrine of torture over what the Bible actually says? Does the torture of other people make you feel good? That would be a sign of sadistic tendencies.
