I have not heard this doctrine called "selective immortality before". At least what I and others believe is sometimes called "conditional immortality".

Respectfully Elder, this particular church believes in the same One God you and I do, baptize in the Name and receiving the Holy Ghost, AND are UPCI in affiliation. To say they are "noneness," why I disagree with the other they teach, seems a bit unfair.

I know what you mean here, but...anyway...

Bro. Beni, do you know anything about this teaching that we might share with these folk?!

We need to know more about it to say for sure.

Perhaps it is best when one does not know what to say, to say nothing.

Thank you all for your input...I am moving on from this discussion...

There was a UPCI pastor in LA, now deceased, that was very strong on the annihilation of the wicked. Bro. Tenney, while not of the same view, didn't trouble him about it. Bro. Tenney also would tell you not to get into a debate with him about it because he would "tie your tail in a knot". I believe the brother's name was Magahee or something similar. He may have sons in the UPC that still teach this doctrine.

There is an elderly lady in the Atlantic District, who taught in the Bible College when I was there, and she believed in the annihilation of the wicked. She held a local license with the UPCI for years I believe. She didn't push this teaching, but I recall her briefly stating her position while teaching one day.

There were a few preachers in AD who also believed this doctrine. To be honest I have always found it difficult to believe God would want souls to be in eternal torment. It seems sadistic to me. Yet Mark 9:43 speaks of those who will go to hell, "Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched."

Elder, I understand your heartbeat here, but we do realize that God does not want a soul to be in torment...that is our choice to make and the result of our choice is hell.

And that is a good Scripture you cited re this...thank you...
