[SIZE=2][SIZE=2]King James Version
Rev 15:1 - And I saw another sign in heaven, great and marvellous, seven angels having the seven last plagues; for in them is filled up the wrath of God.

Webster's Bible Translation
Rev 15:1 - And I saw another sign in heaven, great and marvelous, seven angels having the seven last plagues; for in them is filled up the wrath of God.

Geneva Study Bible
Rev 15:1 - And {1} I saw another sign in heaven, great and marvellous, seven {2} angels having the seven last plagues; for in them is filled up the wrath of God.

The KJV Bible states - for in them is filled up the wrath of God. I believe this is a better translation

Not sure what your point here was.
Now you know how I feel.

Well, my point was that Rev 15:1 is another nail in the coffin for the doctrine of "eternal hell". But I still don't know what your point was.

That verse uses the same word for both "everlasting" and "eternal", so how do you square that the the punishment never had a beginning since Eternal means to not have a beginning?

You use scripture in a very self destructing manner. All doctrines have verses that contradict them. You found one.

It means the same thing. God's wrath is done. It was "filled up" in those who received it. They got the fill of God's wrath, and now it is ended.


ESV:
Rev 15:1 Then I saw another sign in heaven, great and amazing, seven angels with seven plagues, which are the last, for with them the wrath of God is finished.

CEV:
Rev 15:1 After this, I looked at the sky and saw something else that was strange and important. Seven angels were bringing the last seven terrible troubles. When these are ended, God will no longer be angry.

Young's Literal:
Rev 15:1 And I saw another sign in the heaven, great and wonderful, seven messengers having the seven last plagues, because in these was completed the wrath of God


God's wrath is finished. He is no longer angry. It is completed. Its filled up.

Hi Solijia,

I'm glad you are actually explaining your view a bit instead of posting videos.

Anyway, why is it "self-destructing"? The only thing I am destroying around here is the doctrine of "eternal torment", which is not taught in the scriptures.

And no, all doctrines do not have verses that contradict them. If there are verses that contradict your doctrine, then you have a false doctrine, and you should not be following it.

Do some here think God will be angry forever?

All doctrines have verses that contradict it which is proof that this is from God because if man wrote the bible then we would have fixed and taken out all the contradictions.

Your formula shows the finger prints of man and you undue the supernatural revelation of His word.
