Punishment’s Deepest Secret

Punishment: Redemptive or Retributive?

More precisely,

Redemptive (Good Purpose for Rehabilitation) or Retributive (purposeless torture)?

The deepest secret about ‘all’ God’s Punishments is that it is “redemptive” and ‘not retributive’ (on earth vs the afterlife, in fire be it in Hades, Gehenna or the Lake of Fire —> has One Purpose only —> Evil in you destroyed so that you may be ‘saved’, ‘reconciled’ & ‘restored’ thereafter by Him) as this verse clearly ‘reveals’:

“Beatings and wounds cleanse away evil, and floggings cleanse the innermost being.” (Proverbs 20:30)

P/S:

God’s Principle “never” changes. So, ‘all’ punishments must be for the ‘same’ purpose as the verse above reveals this “deep secret”.
