David Instone-Brewer–The Scriptural Basis of Eternal Torment Rethinking Hell 2022-05-31 | New Testament scholar Rev Dr David Instone-Brewer's presentation from the 2016 Rethinking Hell Conference, “Conditional Immortality: Past, Present, Future,” held in London, England, on October 7-8, 2016.Summary: Dr. Instone-Brewer argues that the doctrine of eternal torment is based on only two verses: Judith 16.17 (based on Isa.66.24) & Matt.25.46. Judith implies "conscious" torment due to a misunderstanding of Latin. The 'punishment' in Matt.24.46 (kolasis) can mean either torment or destruction, or one followed by the other. Jesus says a great deal about hell both as a place of torment and a place of destruction. Instead of picking and choosing verses, we should accept that he referred to torment followed by destruction.Presentation Outline: visualsermons.co.uk/BibleHell/_Sermon.htmRethinking Hell: rethinkinghell.comRethinking Hell Conference: rethinkinghellconference.com
