Hey
Yes, but, i dont believe the bible teaches hell is eternal. I believe it teaches its a pergatory state. As in perges, or washes the sin through punishment.

Ok. Another reason why believing the Bible is pointless. It's so vague, that people can derive whatever they want out of it. Don't like when the Bible says "everlasting destruction," that's okay, just go to another verse that seems to teach something else. There. All better now.

Hey
Actually, no, no need to go to another verse, the one you just quoted will do just fine.
Look at it again.
Everlasting DESTRUCTION.
They are destroyed. As in capush, gone. No longer existent. And that destruction is everlasting.
Also, its not about interpreting the bible anyway we want to. Thats selfish and dishonest. Its about interpreting it intelligently and honestly.
