Dutch websiteIs “the Second Death” a State of Torment?
No, for death is not another form of life, but the opposite of life and the absence of life. The dead do not live on, but are dead and therefore conscious of nothing. When we understand what the Bible means by “death,” then we also know what “the second death” is. The dead know nothing (Ecclesiastes 9:5, 10). “The second death” also means no suffering, but dying.
