The Nature of Man (1)
  • Genesis 27 Man is a creature formed from the
    dust - And the LORD God formed man of the dust
    of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the
    breath of life and man became a living
    creature.
  • Psalm 10429 Man lives by the life power of God
    (Gods breath and spirit) Thou hidest thy
    face, they are troubled thou takest away their
    breath, they die, and return to their dust.
  • Eccl. 318-20- When the life power of God is
    removed man, like the beast perishes I said in
    mine heart concerning the estate of the sons of
    men, that God might manifest them, and that they
    might see that they themselves are beasts. For
    that which befalleth the sons of men befalleth
    beasts even one thing befalleth them as the one
    dieth, so dieth the other yea, they have all one
    breath so that a man hath no preeminence above a
    beast for all is vanity. All go unto one place
    all are of the dust, and all turn to dust again.

The Nature of Man (2)
  • James 414 Whereas ye know not what shall be on
    the morrow. For what is your life? It is 1even a
    vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and
    2then vanisheth away.
  • 1 Seeing mans life is in Gods control, he
    cannot presume to make future plans with any
    certainty. Life is not naturally, mans eternal
    possession.
  • 2 Man and the hundreds of generations that have
    come and gone are just like the vapour of steam,
    which appears so tangible but disipates leaving
    no trace of its existence
  • LIFE AS NOW POSSESSED IS NOT EVERLASTING

5
The Death State
  • Ecclesiastes 95,6,10
  • 5 For the living know that they shall die but
    the dead know not any thing, neither have they
    any more a reward for the memory of them is
    forgotten.
  • 6 Also their love, and their hatred, and their
    envy, is now perished neither have they any more
    a portion for ever in any thing that is done
    under the sun.
  • 10 Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with
    thy might for there is no work, nor device, nor
    knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave, whither thou
    goest.
  • In death man is
  • Unconscious
  • Knows nothing
  • It is as though he had never lived

What does Hell look like? Who is there? The Hell
of the Bible is one of these two pictures. Do
you know which one? You may be surprised!
Hell Fire The Popular Doctrine
7
The Popular Doctrine Falls
  • It depends on the false teaching of the
    immortality of the soul
  • The wicked die and corrupt in the grave
  • SATAN is not the popular evil being according to
    the Bible
  • Gods character is denied
  • If God is the merciful Being of order, justice
    and harmony of Scripture, how is it possible that
    with all His foreknowledge and power, He can
    permit the majority of the human race to be
    eternally tortures?

Heaven The Popular Doctrine

Objections
  • Matthew 512
  • Rejoice, and be exceeding glad for great is
    your reward in heaven for so persecuted they the
    prophets which were before you.
  • If the reward is in heaven, then there are two
    possibilities
  • The righteous go to heaven to obtain it
  • The reward comes from heaven to the righteous
    (here on earth)
  • Matthew 1627 For the Son of man shall come in
    the glory of his Father with his angels and then
    he shall reward every man according to his
    works.

10
Objections
  • 1 Peter 319
  • By which also he went and preached unto the
    spirits in prison
  • When Jesus died he did not preach to men in hell
  • Spirits in prison is an expression for a person
    in bondage to sin and death. Prison has this
    association in the following passages-
  • Isaiah 426,7 Isaiah 611 Ephesians 212

11
The Hope of the Resurrection
  • Acts 42 The Apostles preached through Jesus the
    resurrection from the dead.
  • Phil 311 If by any means I might attain unto
    the resurrection of the dead. (Paul)
  • Hebrews 1135 were tortured, not accepting
    deliverance that they might obtain a better
    resurrection
  • Acts 111 men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up
    into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up
    from you into heaven, shall so come in like
    manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.
