Annihilation? Or eternal torment?

Jesus said:
■ “Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels” (Matthew 25:41)

So the unsaved and Satan and his angels all suffer the same fate. Fortunately the following description of what actually happens to Satan clears up any confusion about what happens to the unsaved:

■ “Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God . . .
Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth . . .
.thou hast sinned . . .
therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall devour thee, and I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold thee.
All they that know thee among the people shall be astonished at thee: thou shalt be a terror, and never shalt thou be any more.” (Ezekiel 28:13-19)

Annihilation is confirmed in Psalms:
■ “For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be: yea, thou shalt diligently consider his place, and it shall not be.” (Psalms 37:10)
