Are lost people annihilated when they die?

Les explains that resurrection is not merely being brought back to life, but is God’s unique, sovereign act of bringing back from the dead a human being who has died—not to die again, but to a life of eternity. He stresses that when God breathed into man the breath of life and man became a living soul, that separated man from other life because man is immortal in the area of the soul. The body is not immortal, but the soul or spirit is. Revelation speaks of the resurrection of the just to a life of immortality in God’s presence. The lost, however, are going to be resurrected to a life separated from God, or the second death, but they are still going to continue on through all eternity. Les notes that some groups disagree and teach that when a lost person dies they are annihilated, but that does not line up with Scripture. Instead, the lost will suffer, experience regret, and experience feeling throughout all the eons of eternity. Christ was the first person to ever experience resurrection, which is why He is called the first fruits, plural, of them that slept.
