The Bible repeats is 200 times, and you ignore is 200 times.
Congratulations BTW. You have managed to derail the thread. Now people are just repeating old UR talking points.
whose ignoring? I gave the scripture and Mathew added to it, if he did not then let hi9m defend himself, but I think he know he did so has not said anything about it.
2nd Pet 3:9 says "not desiring that any should perish". You assume that "perish" means "be annihilated", right? The word translated as "perish" is appolymi and it is the same word used in this passage:
"For the son of man is come to seek and to save that which was LOST (appolymi)."
Do you also read annihilation into that verse as well? Did the son of man come to save those who were annihilated?
As long as you believe that what people are being saved from is annihilation, you will have to ask that question.
Greek Interlinear has the Greek word for destroyed or to be destroyed at verse 9.
However, at Psalm 92 v 7 destroyed forever is as in annihilation.
Every tongue will bow and confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father.
No one can say that Jesus is Lord except by the Holy Ghost, and confession is made unto salvation.
And if you look up the word used for bow it is ALWAYS used in worship.
Yes, every tongue that is alive [ Revelation 20 vs 8,9; 21 v 8 ] at the end of Jesus' millennium-long judgment day.

Who ' remains ' at Proverbs 2 vs 21,22 ?______
Yes, destroyed, lost, perish. The point is that it is the same word as in this passage:
"For the son of man is come to seek and to save that which was LOST (appolymi)." (Lk 19:10)
Do you read annihilation into that verse as well? Did the son of man come to save those who were annihilated?
As far as Ps. 92 ... I believe that the OT most often needs to be read as metaphorical. To me, "the wicked" refers to the old man within each of us. That is what is being destroyed. And the upright in Prov 2 is, of course, the New Man, the Christ, that is being, or will be, raised within us.
"Turn to me and be saved, all you ends of the earth; for I am God, and there is no other.
How are you saved? By turning to God.
Therefore, behold, I will this once cause them to know, I will cause them to know mine hand and my might; and they shall know that my name is The LORD.
Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness, and forbearance, and long-suffering; not knowing that the >>>>>>>>>>goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?( not your spontaneous choice to believe in Jesus)
If I be lifted up i will draw all men unto me
I drew them with gentle cords, With bands of love,
I am not home at the moment so do not have my bible software handy, but if memory holds you will find it in the last chapter of Rev.
They go into judgement. What is the purpose of God judgments?
Wouldn't judgment be personal accountability ?_____ Judgment then is, or may or may not be, condemnatory.
Condemnatory judgment's purpose is the utter loss of one's life.- 2nd Peter 3 v 7 B; John 3 vs 15,18
Condemnatory would be executional judgment.- Isaiah 11 vs 3,4; Rev. 19 vs 11,15
Condemnatory judgement passed on Satan.- Hebrews 2 v 14 B; Rev. 21 v 8
Jesus atonement or ransom covers MANY according to Matthew 20 v 28.
Please keep in mind the majority of mankind never had the opportunity to put faith in Jesus [ John 3 v 13 ]
They will have that future opportunity [ Acts 24 v 15 ] when they are resurrected back to healthy physical life on earth during Jesus' 1000-year reign over earth. Only those who have already put faith in Jesus can be part of the first or earlier resurrection to Heaven. - Revelation 20 v 6; 5 vs 9,10; 2 v 10
it is not only for our sins but the sins of the world, again I do not have access to my bible software so you will have to look it up unless someone else knows the verse I am speaking of. if not I will give you the verse when I get home in the am.
We agree in part on your last statement, however you just admitted that some people who have died without confessing Jesus chrsit as Lord will get the chance to do so at a later date. So what happened to the belief that we must confess Christ in this life?
Yes, every tongue that is alive [ Revelation 20 vs 8,9; 21 v 8 ] at the end of Jesus' millennium-long judgment day.
There you go adding to scripture again, where does it say everyone that is alive?
