S7E42 - Hell, Annihilationism & Universalism: What Happens After We Die? With Ken Fish, Dr. Sam Storms & Joel Taylor

<p>Ken Fish and Joel Taylor are joined by Dr. Sam Storms—theologian, author, and longtime pastor—for a careful, substantive conversation about the doctrine of last things: what Scripture actually teaches about the fate of the unsaved.</p><p>Together they define the terms and weigh the views: eternal conscious punishment (the historic position), annihilationism and its modern form conditional immortality, and universalism. Drawing on texts like Matthew 25 and Revelation 14, Sam makes the biblical case for the traditional view while engaging the strongest arguments on the other side with honesty and charity. The conversation keeps returning to a deeper root: nearly every theological error flows from a misconception about the nature of God—and much of modern theology has quietly turned into anthropology, exalting human feeling over God&#39;s revealed Word.</p><p>In this conversation:</p><ul><li><p>Defining the terms: eternal conscious punishment, annihilationism, conditional immortality, universalism</p></li><li><p>The key texts—Matthew 25 and Revelation 14—and how &quot;eternal&quot; is used</p></li><li><p>Why most theological error traces back to a misconception of God&#39;s character</p></li><li><p>How modern theology turned into anthropology—human feeling over God&#39;s Word</p></li><li><p>Why &quot;hyper-grace&quot; and a one-dimensional view of love open the door to universalism</p></li><li><p>Whether annihilationism logically collapses into universalism</p></li><li><p>John Stott&#39;s honest struggle—and why emotions can&#39;t be the standard of truth</p></li><li><p>Holding conviction with charity toward fellow believers who differ</p></li><li><p>Why biblical immortality isn&#39;t the same as Plato&#39;s immortality of the soul</p></li></ul><p>Don&#39;t let your preferences be the final word—submit your heart to the authority of Scripture, because bad theology hurts people.</p><p><strong>Connect with Orbis Ministries</strong></p><p>🙏 Prayer:<a href="https://orbisprayer.org/"> <u>https://orbisprayer.org/</u></a></p><p>❤️ Give:<a href="https://subsplash.com/orbisministries/give"> <u>https://subsplash.com/orbisministries/give</u></a></p><p><strong>Grow with Orbis</strong></p><p>📖 <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Road-Holy-Spirit-Fish/dp/1636412548"><strong>Read</strong></a><strong>:</strong> <em>On the Road with the Holy Spirit</em> by Ken Fish</p><p>🎓 <a href="https://kingdom-fire-ministries-school-of-supernatural.teachable.com/"><strong>Learn</strong>
