Annihilation the Portion of all Mankind.
Why died not I from the womb? Why did I not give up the ghost when I came out of the belly?... For now should I have lain still and been quiet; I should have slept; then had I been at rest, with kings and counselors of the earth, which built desolate places for themselves; or with princes that had gold, who filled their houses with silver; or as a hidden, untimely birth I had not been; as infants which never saw the light. There the wicked cease from troubling, and there the weary be at rest.... The small and great are there, and the servant is free from his master. Wherefore is light given to him that is in misery, and life unto the bitter in soul, which long for death, but it cometh not, ... which rejoice exceedingly and are glad, when they can find the grave? (Job. 3 : 11, 13–17, 19–22.)
The dead know not anything.... For there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom in the grave whither thou goest. ([Eccl. 9 : 5, 10].)
For that which befalleth the sons of men befalleth the beasts, even one thing befalleth them; as the one dieth, so dieth the other; yea, they have all one breath; so that a man hath no pre-eminence above a beast.... All go unto one place. ([Eccl. 3 : 19, 20].)
Endless Misery the Portion of a Part of Mankind.
These shall go away into everlasting punishment. ([Mat. 25 : 46].)
And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.... And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. ([Rev. 20 : 10, 15].)
And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up forever and ever. ([Rev. 14 : 11].)
And many of them that sleep in the dust shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt. ([Dan. 12 : 2].)
