Rev 20:10 is a "supposedly" scenario.  It is a real scenario.

Define "torment".

Pain, agony, …

Can a spiritual body feel pain?

Glad I could humor you.  If you can prove the "beast and FP" aren't individuals but rather groups or systems, or whatever, please, be my guest.

That's the beauty of just believing what is written as written.  I don't have to prove or disprove anything, I just have to believe what is written.

Well, exactly!  Now, can you explain why the Bible refers to the beast and FP in terms of individuals?  For example, in Rev 20:10, the Bible describes Satan, the beast and FP as "they" who will "be tormented day and night for ever and ever.

So, explain how to torture a system.  Or what, exactly, do you think the beast is, if not a person?

  YOU on the other hand, have doctrines that demand that Gods words either
take on other meanings or get switched around or like you are doing here, putting upon those who's 2nd death takes place in the lake of fire

Please show me how my views "take on other meanings or get switched around".  

As to the 2nd death and the LOF, where ELSE would the 2nd death take place if not IN the LOF???

the same eternal torment of the beast and the false prophet  even though it is clearly stated their PART is death, NOT ETERNAL TORMENT.

For one who so often emphasizes "what is written", how come you aren't even reading "what is written" accurately?

When a person is cast into the LOF, they DO experience a second death, the second death of their physical resurrected and mortal body.  Then, their immortal part, the soul, will "be tormented day and night for ever and ever".  Just as "what is written".

So, to say "their part is death", is to say they will experience a second death.

 They just take place in the same place, but they don't have the same punishment.

Faulty conclusion.  Rev 20:10 tells us specifically the outcome of being cast into the LOF.  Which is the second death and INCLUDES being "tormented day and night for ever and ever".

But, I could give you a billion reasons and none of them are ever going to make a dent.   I join the rest of them who will not be replying anymore.

Those who can't defend their own positions do finally give up.

  So you just keep believing as you do, it obviously brings you lots of pleasure.  

OK, I see.  Annihilationists believe that those who accept the clear words of Rev 20:10 as applying to EVERYONE who will be cast into the LOF are sadists.

Well, by application, is your view of God Himself.  That is why you so strongly resist the reality of what Scripture SAYS, you know, "what is written".

So rather than viewing God as a sadist, you reject "what is written" and make up your own little theory.

Aren't you aware of what Jesus taught in Matt 10:15, 11:22 and 24?

He made it clear that the LOF will be either more bearable (tolerable) or less for everyone.  Some will be tormented more than others, and some will be tormented less than others.  It won't be fun for anyone, but it also won't be insufferable pain for anyone either.

Maybe that will ease your sensitive emotions.

No spiritual body will ever feel pain.  Why do you ask?  Aren't you aware of the promise of Revb 21:4 - He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away.”

Do you believe the resurrected body of an unsaved person will be a "spiritual body"?

Of course!

Why?  There is no mention or reference of unbelievers in 1 Cor 15.

Paul described a spiritual body as an immortal body.  That would preclude the unbeliever from another death, and the LOF is called the second death.

So your theory is contradicted by Scripture.

Torment wouldn't be torment if pain isn't felt. Or would it?

No body no spirit no soul.  That is why we have 2 bodies. 

This body dies, we move on to realm of next body. If our next body dies in THAT realm, aka 2nd death, then we cease to be because no body spirit soul.

Good question...

A spiritual body is only incorruptible—not immortal.  Only those who are of the first resurrection or the second resurrection will have immortal bodies (eternal lives).

[NConly]

Note that the last passage, 1 Peter 4:5, even extends being raised to judgement to those unfortunate unbaptized Gentiles who knew enough to mock Christians in Peter’s day. Passages like this show why Paul does not say “the dead will raised immortal” – because if they were raised immortal then it would read as if there was no judgement. Wheras “raised incorruptible” or “raised imperishable”, simply means not decaying, not raised with the illnesses of the last years of life before the first death. The one thing it does not mean is “raised indestructible even to God”.

Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption. Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.

- 1 Corinthians 15:50-53 (KJV)

This is a new one! Are you saying the "all" includes believers and unbelievers?

1 Corinthians 15:54-57 (NKJV) - 54 So when this corruptible has put on incorruption, and this mortal has put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written: "Death is swallowed up in victory." 55 "O Death, where is your sting? O Hades, where is your victory?" 56 The sting of death is sin, and the strength of sin is the law. 57 But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through OUR LORD Jesus Christ.

Is the Lord Jesus Christ the Lord of unbelievers too?
