- XII. How Completely
Will Sin And Sinners Be Destroyed? (Continued)
- J. Will The Wicked Be
Consumed?
- Psalms 37:
- 20 But the wicked shall perish, and the
enemies of the Lord shall be as the fat of lambs: they shall
consume; into smoke shall they consume away.
- Isaiah 1:
- 28 And the destruction of the
transgressors and of the sinners shall be together, and
they that forsake the Lord shall be consumed.
- Psalms 104:
- 35 Let the sinners be consumed out of
the earth, and let the wicked be no more. Bless thou the Lord, O
my soul. Praise ye the Lord.
- 2 Thessalonians 2:
- 8 And then shall that Wicked
be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his
mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his
coming:
- K. Will The Wicked Finally
Become Ashes?
- Malachi 4:
- 3 And ye shall tread down the wicked;
for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the
day that I shall do this, saith the Lord of hosts.
- Ezekiel 28:
- 15 Thou wast perfect in thy ways from
the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee.
- 16 By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst
of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast
thee as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy thee,
O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire.
- 17 Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast
corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to
the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold
thee.
- 18 Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries by the multitude of thine
iniquities, by the iniquity of thy traffick; therefore will I bring
forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall devour thee, and I will
bring thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that
behold thee.
- NOTE:
- In addition to the wicked turning to ashes, it is
clear by the the title of “covering cherub” (verse 16 above)
that even Satan himself will be completely burned and turned into ashes.
What a wonderful day that will be when sin and all evidence of sin will
be com-pletely consumed and purified by fire. Sin will be no more! Ya!!!

- 1 Corinthians 15:
- 51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We
shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
- 52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump:
for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised
incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
- 53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and

incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality,
then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is
