DEATH
2 Corinthians 5:6-8
Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home
in the body, we are absent from the Lord: (For we walk by faith, not by sight:)
We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body,
and to be present with the Lord.
Philippians 1:21-23
For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain. But if I live in the flesh,
this is the fruit of my labour: yet what I shall choose I wot not.
For I am in a strait betwixt two, having a desire to depart,
and to be with Christ; which is far better:
The IMPACT of DEATH:

CAUSE OF HOPE
Philippians 1:21
1. For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.

Romans 8:38-89
DEATH IS For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor
angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things
GAIN
present, nor things to come,
Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall
be able to separate us from the love of God, which is
in Christ Jesus our Lord.

CAUSE OF HOPE
2.
Hebrews 2:14
Forasmuch then as the children are
partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself
JESUS likewise took part of the same; that through
death he might destroy him that had the
ABOLISHED power of death, that is, the devil;
SATAN’S POWER And deliver them who through fear of death
were all their lifetime subject to bondage.
OF DEATH

CAUSE OF HOPE
John 11:25-26
2. Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and
the life: he that believeth in me, though he were
JESUS dead, yet shall he live:

And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall
ABOLISHED never die. Believest thou this?
Ecclesiastes 12:7
SATAN’S POWER Then shall the dust return to the earth as it
OF DEATH was: and the spirit shall return unto God
who gave it.

CAUSE OF HOPE
1 Corinthians 15:25-26, 53-54
3. For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under

his feet. The last enemy that shall be destroyed is
death.
JESUS For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this
mortal must put on immortality.
CONQUERED So when this corruptible shall have put on
incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on
DEATH immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying
that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.

CAUSE OF HOPE
Isaiah 25:8
3. He will swallow up death in victory; and the

Lord GOD will wipe away tears from off all
JESUS faces; and the rebuke of his people shall he

take away from off all the earth: for the
CONQUERED
LORD hath spoken it.
DEATH

CAUSE OF HOPE
1 Corinthians 15:55-58
3.
O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy
victory?
The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the
JESUS law.
But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory
CONQUERED through our Lord Jesus Christ.

Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast,
DEATH unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the

Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in
vain in the Lord.

CAUSE OF HOPE
2 Corinthians 5:1-2
4. For we know that if our earthly house of this

tabernacle were dissolved, we have a
A HOME building of God, an house not made with

hands, eternal in the heavens.
IN For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be

clothed upon with our house which is from
HEAVEN heaven:

CAUSE OF HOPE
Philippians 1:21-24
5. For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.
But if I live in the flesh, this is the fruit of my
OUR labour: yet what I shall choose I wot not.
For I am in a strait betwixt two, having a desire to
“ANCHOR” depart, and to be with Christ; which is far better:

Nevertheless to abide in the flesh is more needful
IS LIFTED for you.


CAUSE OF HOPE
Acts 7:54-55
But he, being full of the Holy Ghost, looked up
6. stedfastly into heaven, and saw the glory of God, and
Jesus standing on the right hand of God,
CHRIST And said, Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the
Son of man standing on the right hand of God.
Hebrews 1:3
WELCOMES Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express
image of his person, and upholding all things by the
US word of his power, when he had by himself purged our

sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on

1 The BELIEF That Everyone Will
Be Saved, or
UNIVERSALISM
or Universal The BELIEF That Every Human
Reconciliation Soul Will Ultimately Be
or Universal Reconciled to God Because of
Salvation His Divine Love and Mercy

JUSTIFICATIONS:
1 1. The thought that men and women will live a life of
UNIVERSALISM
eternal torment in hell causes some to reject the
Scriptures’ teaching on the issue
or Universal Origen (Greek sch) take it as “threat,” “exhortation,”
“an intentional and gracious deceit on God’s part to
Reconciliation deter men from sinning;”
or Universal That, eventually, “there would be a universal

restoration of everyone including Satan, sodomites
Salvation and others.”

JUSTIFICATIONS:
1 2. The over-emphasis on the love and compassion of
UNIVERSALISM
God — and the neglect of the holiness, righteousness
and justice of God — that leads some to believe God
or Universal will have mercy on every living soul.
Reconciliation Some believe that people will not remain in hell

because it is against God’s nature: “In a universe of
or Universal love, there can be no heaven which tolerates a
chamber of horrors, no hell for any which does not
Salvation at the same time make a hell for God.”

WHAT THE SCRIPTURES SAY:
1 1. The unredeemed will dwell forever in hell; the Lord’s
own words confirm the time spent in heaven for the
UNIVERSALISM redeemed will last as long as that of the unredeemed
in hell. The punishment of the unsaved is just as
or Universal eternal as the life of the righteous.
Reconciliation Matt 25:41, 46 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart
from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his
or Universal angels: … And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the
righteous into life eternal.
Salvation Mark 9:43-44 … into the fire that never shall be quenched: Where their
worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.

1 2. God is certainly full of love and mercy; it was these qualities
that led Him to send His own Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, to
UNIVERSALISM earth to die on the cross for us. And only through the Lord
that one is able to spend eternity in heaven:
or Universal Acts 4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other

2
The BELIEF that unbelievers will not experience
an eternity of suffering in hell, but will instead be
“extinguished” (annihilated) after death, or
ANNIHILATIONISM
or The BELIEF that after the final judgment some
human beings and all fallen angels (all of the
Extinctionism damned) will be totally destroyed so as to not
or exist, or that their consciousness will be
“extinguished” (annihilated), rather than suffer
Destructionism everlasting torment in hell.

JUSTIFICATIONS:
2 1. The “lake of fire” is such a place where the wicked would
be instantly consumed when cast into it
ANNIHILATIONISM WHAT THE SCRIPTURES SAY:
or The “lake of fire” is both a physical and spiritual realm. It is not simply a
human body being cast into the lake of fire; it is a man’s body and soul.
Extinctionism A spiritual nature cannot be consumed by physical fire; Scriptures
or declared that the unsaved (wicked) are resurrected with a body
prepared for eternity (eternal destiny) just as the saved are.
Destructionism READ: Revelation 20:13; Acts 24:15; John 5:29; 2 Thes 1:8-10

JUSTIFICATIONS:
2 2. The word “eternal” in Greek “aionion” does not, by
definition, mean eternal but refers to “age” or “eon”
ANNIHILATIONISM 3. The claim that God alone possesses immortality
or (1 Tim 6:16) and immortality is only to life, not to

death (as Christ in 2 Tim 1:10)
Extinctionism WHAT THE SCRIPTURES SAY:
or READ: Revelation 20:10, 14-15; Matt 25:46

Satan (the Devil), the Beast, and the False Prophet along with the
Destructionism wicked in eternal punishment; the premise that if the torment is
only for an “age,” it follows the same period of life for believers.

JUSTIFICATIONS:
2 4. It would be unjust for God to punish unbelievers in hell for

The BELIEF That There Is Salvation

SALVATION Can people who have NEVER HEARD

Without of the Name of Christ BE SAVED?
Knowing CHRIST Will there be OPPORTUNITY AFTER
DEATH for people to BE SAVED?

1. JUSTIFICATION of “RESTING on GOD’S
CHARACTER of FAIRNESS and GOODNESS”:
3 Some believe that people who have never heard of Christ

need not be condemned to hell.
SALVATION “Of one thing we can be certain: God will not abandon in hell those
who have not known and therefore have not declined His offer of

Knowing CHRIST Though He has not told us the nature of His arrangements, we cannot

WHAT THE SCRIPTURES SAY: (Assignment)


ULTIMATELY GOOD PURPOSE”:
3 Some believe that people will have opportunity to be saved

after death, even translated from hell to heaven.
SALVATION “punishment in hell is both punitive and remedial…. We do not wish to build
fences around God’s grace, however, and we do not preclude the possibility

The gates of the holy city are depicted as being open day and night

possible continuously. The gates of hell are locked but they are locked only
from within…. We can affirm salvation on the other side of the grave.”


INFINITE GRACE”:
3 Some believe that God’s saving grace will go further than or

past this earthly life.
SALVATION “It is hard to defend the proposition that saving grace in Christ extends to
all men without logically being led to extend the operation of grace beyond
Without the life of man in this world….

Those who in this world have lived according to the limited light which was

10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet
are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
11 And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there
was found no place for them.
12 And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened,
which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to
their works.

Revelation 20:2-7
2 And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years,
3 And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no
more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season.
4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were
beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his
image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a
thousand years.
5 But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.
6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be
priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.
7 And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison,
