The way this is worded makes me think you are arguing that the fire that burned Sodom is eternal fire. Mike, I am not the one saying that...the Bible is saying that. God is a fire. There are several texts in scripture to establish this. You will "put out" God's fire? How? It is eternal, everlasting, and forever, just as God is Himself, for God IS fire. Would you "put out" love? Does God not "love" the people of Sodom anymore? God IS love. Love is a part of God Himself, and is just as eternal as the fire. "I am the LORD, I change not..." Malachi 3:6 The fire never goes out. But anything unclean will be consumed by it, and vanish--it will not keep burning eternally. Those of us who are righteous, can "dwell with everlasting burnings" (Isaiah 33:14) and "not be burned" (Isaiah 43:2). Blessings, Green Cochoa.
We can receive of heaven's light only as we are willing to be emptied of self. We can discern the character of God, and accept Christ by faith, only as we consent to the bringing into captivity of every thought to the obedience of Christ. And to all who do this, the Holy Spirit is given without measure. In Christ "dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. And ye are complete in Him." [Colossians 2:9, 10.] {GW 57.1} -- Ellen White.

GC, I agree the fire light of God's brightness never goes out. But I do not agree Sodom is still burning. That fire went out a long time ago.

I never suggested Sodom was still burning.

I figured as much, but it didn't sound like it at first. Thank you for clarifying.

Hello, friends
I think that if you read carefully what was discussed in the first three threads, this question will be made clear. In Hebrews 6:2 there is an "eternal judgment", however it doesn't mean a process that has a beginning but doesn't have an end.
It is "eternal", not in terms of duration, but of its effects and consequences.
