| − | * Why are the sons of perdition the only ones on whom the second death shall have any power (verse 37)? If we think of the second death as being removed from the presence of God due to sin, then we might think this second death still has some power over those who live in the telestial or terrestial worlds. What does it mean to say that the second death doesn't have any power over those people?

| − | * The phrase "second death" (in verse 37) [http://scriptures.lds.org/query?words=%22second+death%22&search.x=12&search.y=12&search=Search&newsearch=ok&OT=1&NT=1&BM=1&DC=1&PGP=1&TX=1 isn't used much] in the scriptures. In the bible the phrase is used only 4 times--all in Revelations. There it is defined as "the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone" ([[Rev 21:8]]) where those not found written in the book of life are cast into ([[Rev 20:14|Rev 20:14-15]]) at the final judgement. Revelations tells us that the fearful, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, whoremongers, sorcerers, idolaters, and liars will all have some part in this second death ([[Rev 21:8]]).
