[QUOTE="partinobodycular, post: 77633807, member: 435281"] So I asked you a question and you deflected by asking me a series of questions in return. I'll assume that this was a perfectly understandable response. However, it did nothing to address my curiosity. Will the sinner's soul be destroyed in hell... implying that their punishment isn't eternal... or was Luke's statement somehow in error, either because it's been mistranslated over the years, or it wasn't meant to be taken literally in the first place. I mean we all do this from time to time... say things that aren't quite correct if taken literally. Or maybe there's something other than the body and soul that survives hellfire, and eternal punishment applies to that. I just don't know. So personally, I don't know why scripture seems to contradict itself on this topic, but it certainly seems to, so I'm simply curious as to how you as a Baptist reconcile eternal punishment with the soul being destroyed in Gehenna. It's just me being curious about something that I can't personally explain, and hoping that you could help clarify it for me. [/QUOTE]
