"Eternal punishment!" It sounds so harsh, and for sohhhhhhhhhh lonnnnng!
Is that really part of God's plan for His children, the very ones He knit together in the womb? No.
Despite what OrthoBox Christianity may tell you (with multiple Bible versions in tow), it's just not true. They lie (and so do their multiple Bible versions). Don't believe the lie. Let your own instincts help you on this one. You wouldn't punish your own children forever, and neither will God, Whose love far exceeds yours. And, good Scripture translations teach this. God's judgments, though very real, are not eternal (or everlasting).
