How can anyone be executed there? As you may not be aware, humans only die once. The following red section is called "a source," it shows where my information is coming from.
Hebrews 9:27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:
ONCE ONLY. Now there are other things that happen once only, the first flight in a balloon for instance. It can't happen twice because as soon as you take off for your second flight,
BANG!! —— right there: it's not your first flight any more. It's your
second. Nevertheless, that first flight come in two stages.
[1] the taking off, this is the first stage
[2] the landing, this is the second stage
In between there's some floating around and general nonsense, why anyone would want to go up in a balloon is a complete mystery to me. No directional stability, the things are always coming down on trees or bursting or catching fire
Revelation 21:8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
Now we know that God is always consistent and so there can be no contradiction here. To ask, “How can there be a second death if you only die once?” is to mock The Bible as unreliable. You might as well say whoever wrote it had no idea what they were on about or couldn't be bothered to check one another's stuff to keep it consistent. “Alternatively,” you may be thinking, “if this garbage has anything to do with God then what a mo
ron He must be to get something like this wrong, the veriest epitome of contradiction, unless He's just lying on a critical point for His own amusement.” But you'd be wrong.
Death is a two stage process. First there's the dying bit. Ebola perhaps or a bad case of mumps. Some people die from demon induced convulsions or having boulders land on them. Why they hang around the bottoms of cliffs is anyone's guess, but by whatever means this is your exit. Next there is Judgement done before a God so righteous as history shows Him to be followed by a landing. The Bible is clear that you could land somewhere very unpleasant where things just get worse and worse——God uses the words torment, forever and ever, wailing, tooth gnashing to describe this——and from this there's no Redemption. You chose to sneer at Christ, to reject The Bible as transparent hogwash, so once you've arrived in the molten brimstone, how could you possibly be executed?
