Death and hell deliver up their dead. This is referring to what? The souls. Right? Because what is currently in hell? The souls of them who died without Christ. But I want you to notice that in verse 13 it says the sea gave up the dead which were in it. So this is referring to just the bodies of people. Okay? Because this isn't referring, there's no souls in the sea, folks. You know, the Titanic is not filled with like a bunch of ghosts who went down with the ship. You understand? Guys, if they're saved to go to heaven, if they're not saved to go to hell. This is referring to the physical body. So just as at the rapture, there is a reuniting of soul and body, so to speak, right? At the rapture, we get our glorified bodies, we live forever. In like manner at the great white throne judgment, there is a reuniting of soul and that body made of flesh and blood at the great white throne judgment. Now you say, well, why is that? Why does he bring up those bodies? Why does he bring up the bodies of those who were damned, you know, from wherever they were at to reunite with their soul? Well, if you remember what Jesus said, he said this, fear not them which can kill the body, but fear him which can kill both soul and body in hell. And what do we see with the beast and the false prophet? That when they're cast into the lake of fire, they're cast not just their soul, but their body as well. Okay? So this is what I'm saying is that when people are judged out of the books, both soul and body are being cast into the lake of fire. You understand that? You say, well, I already knew that, I'm not done yet, all right? Go with me, if you would, to Isaiah chapter 66, and I'll finish with this, okay? Mark 944 in various parts of the gospel says this, when talking about hell, it talks about it as being a place where the worm dieth not and the fire is not quenched. It reiterates that over and over again, it says where the worm dieth not and the fire is not quenched. Well, if you look at a couple references in the Bible, you'll often see that a worm is often or a body, the physical carcass of a person is referred to as a worm, okay? Job 25, 6 says, how much less man that is a worm and the son of man, which is a worm. Psalm 22 verse 6 says, but I am a worm and no man, a reproach of men and despised of the people. So often you'll see a man being depicted as a worm. Now why is it that the Bible says that hell is a place where the worm dieth not and the fire is not quenched? I don't believe it's referring to like literal worms being in the lake of fire. I don't think that's that at all. What I believe it's referring to is that the worm is referring to the body that was resurrected of the dead being cast, because it's cast into the lake of fire, why? If it's just going to burn up, well, here's the thing, it's not going to burn up, it's a place where the worm dieth not. Look at Isaiah 66 verse 22, and they shall go forth and look upon the carcasses of the men that have transgressed against me, for their worm shall not die, neither shall their fire be quenched, and they shall be an abhorring unto all flesh. Notice that it says that their worm shall not die in tandem with the carcasses of the men. So what do we see here? Well, what I believe is this, is that the reason the physical bodies are being brought up of those who are damned is because obviously they're going to be cast into the lake of fire, but I believe that body will burn forever as well. I say, well, that doesn't make any sense, how can a body just burn forever? Well, how can a soul burn forever? How do we live forever? You know, God is capable of doing these things. And here's the thing, it could be that he creates this lake of fire that has these properties that are capable of consuming whatever is in it without actually causing it to disappear. And look, isn't this just the worst possible pain that you could ever experience? I mean, if you've ever been burned before, you know what I'm talking about. How much worse when you're actually in the lake of fire, you're reunited with your body and that's actually what's being burned. You say, well, I don't believe that. Well, regardless if you don't believe it or not, people are going there, right? And regardless if you believe it or not, let's say it does just dissipate and just disappear, your body's still being thrown into there, okay? You're going to feel it no matter what. I just believe you're going to feel it for all of eternity, the body, because it's a place where the warm dieth not and the fire is not quenched.
