Hi
I am curious about how people who support annihilation rather than an eternal conscious hell read the Bible. For example, a pastor of a Church I used to attend said while he believed in a conscious eternal hell, it was possible to read the Bible in a way that supported annihilation. I am curious about this.
There are a few threads on this already but a lot contain things like "I don't think that God would...". It would be good if we could keep this to the Bible with just brief explanations of relevant verses.
Thanks

- If you believe that hell is not a place of conscious punishment, what verses in the Bible teach this?
- How do you understand verses that do seem to teach eternal conscious punishment?
Thanks
