This is something which I don't understand, how can God punish a sinner in such a way that a sinner will be burnt in lake of fire into ashes and then again he repeats cycle which happens forever and ever..
How the Lord can do that.. it can be understood that a sinner on this earth will be put into lake of fire after his death and he will be burnt into ashes once because of his earthly sins. but why He will do it in a repeated cycles..
God is already punishing us on this earth, for what ever sins that we did.. all the diseases, physical and mental disorders are happening because of our or our parents/ancestors sins on this earth.
Kindly answer me in the light of Holy Bible..
Posting thread based on the below link, which I think it could be true..
God is not punishing us on earth for our sins. What we are experiencing is the result of sin in the world.
It's not just about us (human race). Sin (disobedience towards God) actually started in heaven with Lucifer/Satan and 1/3 of the angels. They were expelled from heaven and cast to the earth. Satan then propagated his lies and Adam and Eve sinned (disobeyed God) and then the sinful nature of mankind spread throughout the human race through them. Although we have a sinful nature, Jesus defeated all sin by way of the cross and His resurrection and by believing in Him we (all the saved) will be delivered from sin entirely upon His 2nd coming (1st resurrection) and will be with Jesus from that time forward. In the meantime we have the His Holy Spirt that helps us through (not necessarily from) the struggles (sins) of this world.
A lot happens between now and the final end. A lot!
The Great White Throne judgement will occur at the very end and yes the entire earth and everything in it/on it will be destroyed by fire and will include Satan and his minions and all those from the 2nd resurrection (the unsaved) burned to ashes. There are not "cycles". He destroys everything by fire before making everything new.
2nd Peter 3
10 ...The heavens will pass away with a loud noise. The sun and moon and stars will burn up.
The earth and all that is in it will be burned up.
11
Since all these things are to be destroyed in this way, you should think about the kind of life you are living. It should be holy and God-like. 12 You should look for the day of God to come. You should do what you can to make it come soon. At that time the heavens will be destroyed by fire. And the sun and moon and stars will melt away with much heat. 13 We are looking for what God has promised, which are new heavens and a new earth. Only what is right and good will be there.
Then God Almighty will create the world anew ... no sin, no pain, no sorrow, no diseases, no nature calamities, no death, no suffering of any kind. Everyone and everything will be in perfect harmony with the Lord and He will establish His kingdom on the new earth.
Isaiah 65
17 For behold, I will create
new heavens and a new earth.
The former things will not be remembered,
nor will they come to mind.
Revelation 21
21 Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and the sea no longer existed
3And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying:
“Behold, the dwelling place of God is with man,
and He will live with them.
They will be His people,
and God Himself will be with them as their God.
4He will wipe away every tear from their eyes,
and there will be no more death
or mourning or crying or pain,
for the former things have passed away.”
Amen ... and .... Amen!
Therefore, even so .... come Lord Jesus.
God Bless.
