DEATH, according to the Bible

First off, the word "soul" means "breathing creature".
Souls are used to refer to the great sea 'monsters', to 'man'.
Translations usually distort it.
Gen 2:7- And Jehovah God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
Translations not only remove God's name, but distort the word "nephesh" (mean "soul") to read anything but!

Next, the judgment of God for Adam & Eve's treason, was simply "DEATH" (Heb "dying you will die").
Not LIVING, burning forever in a gigantic BBQ Pit!
NOWHERE in the Bible is such a thing even HINTED at!
In Jesus days, people destroyed garbage by using fire in the valley of Hinnom (Gehenna) out side the walls of Jerusalem.
Jesus foretold how evil would be DESTROYED!

The resurrection will one day be coming due to the ransom our Lord had so dearly paid!
He told his follower he would DIE (not remain alive as an 'immortal soul"), and be raised God, HIS God, on the third day.

but you are saying your translation the new world translation got it right?

not in all cases

yom ha shoah,the day of great suffering ,its not a day but the time under Hitler .

that's not always how Modern english works.

the words for Hades and gehenna are chosen ,if it was simply to kill by fire ,the word wouldn't include the any cononation of torture.

He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him. And He is before all things, and in Him all things consist. Colossians 1:15-17


Jesus Christ is Lord, YHWH, the only begotten Son of God, the creator of heaven and earth.


But to the Son He says:
“Your throne, O God, is forever and ever;
A scepter of righteousness is the scepter of Your kingdom.
You have loved righteousness and hated lawlessness;
Therefore God, Your God, has anointed You
With the oil of gladness more than Your companions.”
And:
“You, LORD, in the beginning laid the foundation of the earth,
And the heavens are the work of Your hands.
Hebrews 1:8-10



The apostles understood and taught that Jesus Christ is the Lord God.



Simon Peter, a bondservant and apostle of Jesus Christ,
To those who have obtained like precious faith with us by the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ:
2 Peter 1:1



For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men, teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly in the present age, looking for the blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, Titus 2:11-13
