God destroys the wicked with Death as final punishment.. [ as in dead for eternity]...OK,
so where does eternal torment in flames fit in..?

You kill someone then torture /torment them
forever after that.. 🤔

Hellfire is mentioned in Mark 9:47



The O.T. does not describe hell/hades as being
flame filled eternal torment, so I take it to
be a N.T. christian cult ploy /construct to
frighten people into believing.

or did God give hell a total make over?





It seems that Christian doctrine is not compatible with Judaism.


That's what Marcion thought. He didn't see how it was possible the God of the OT and NT were the same God.

of course, Marcion was a heretic, not a believer, so I wouldn't put much stake in what he believed.


Why would it be about who happens to believe this or that rather than what is true regardless of who believes this or that?

There is an undeniable change in the nature and character of God between the OT and NT.

actually, no.


It's there for anyone to see, Yahweh being described as a god of war in the OT and a God of Love in the NT.

The two are simply not compatible. Not logically. Not ethically. Not conceptually.
