Biblically Refuting Annihilationism (Part One) Annihilationist believe that a person goes to hell for a period of time and then is annihilated. Annihilationists undermine the Bible, undermine the gospel, and undermine the holiness of God by promoting this false belief. What are some of the common scriptures that are twisted to develop a belief system that is not in the Bible? Many annihilationists use Matthew 10:28 and claim that the word destroy in this verse is proof a person that goes to hell is eventually annihilated. What is the Greek word for destroy in Matthew 10:28? Where else is this word used in the New Testament and is this Greek word ever used to describe someone or something being annihilated? Topic: Hear an audio of David Reagan describing how is feelings and emotions lead him to embrace annihilationism. Are Christians to base their doctrine on feelings? Topic: Annihilationists often refer to eternal hell as a concept that makes God unloving and even worse than Hitler and his torture of individuals at Auschwitz. Topic: Another argument is that a 16 year old that has lived a moral life and dies and goes to hell for eternity is receiving infinite and eternal punishment for a finite and temporal sin. What is the Biblical response to this fallacious argument? Topic: We take your calls.
