[it's just me]

Matt 25:34, 41, 46

Mark 9:47, 48

Rev 20: 14, 15

Rev 21:7, 8

Rev 22:4,5

"The way of darkness is crooked, it is full of cursing. It is the way of eternal death with punishment" Barnabas 70-130 AD

"You should fear what is truly death, which is reserved for those who will be condemned to the eternal fire. It will afflict those who are committed to it even to the end." Letter to Diogtnetus 125-200 AD

"Those who have not known God and do evil are condemned to death. However, those who have known God and have seen His mighty works but still continue in evil, will be chastised doubly, and will die forever." Hermas, 150 AD

"Christ foretold that Satan would be sent into the fire with his host, along with the men who follow him, and they will be punished for an endless duration." - Justin Martyr 160 AD

"We know from Isaiah that the members of those who have transgressed will be consumed by the worm and unquenchable fire, remaining immortal. As a result, they will become a spectacle to all flesh." Justin Martyr 160 AD

This must be The Apostle Barnabas..

Don't you just love The Apostles?

Upon the foundation of the Prophets and Apostles...

Ephesians 2:19-20 "Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God; 20And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;"

NOT just upon the foundation of the Apostles.. but of the Prophets AND Apostles. Both Old and New Testaments.

Be leery of those so called 'believers' who say that only The New Testament matters and that the Old testament is obsolete.


The hippie 'Jesus movement' believed in this. That the only thing that mattered was the New Testament.

They even might have burned Old Testaments to show their sincerity.

Nobody is saying anything of the kind. As I have pointed out elsewhere, the way of life is found in both.
