Does the Bible Teach that Hell is Eternal or Temporal for Unbelievers?

The Bible teaches that hell is eternal, a place of conscious torment for those who reject God, where the wicked are punished and destroyed, and the righteous are rewarded with eternal life. The doctrine of hell is a primary issue in Christianity, and its eternality is supported by passages such as Matthew 25 and Mark 9, which describe eternal punishment and the unquenchable fire of hell. The Bible also describes hell as a place of torment, where the wicked are punished for their sins and the righteous are rewarded for their faith. The doctrine of hell is not just a threat, but also a reminder of God's justice and mercy, and a motivator for evangelism and missionary work. [... more]
