I suggest you go to e-sword. Click on Bible and it will open another page where you can click on search. The bar that opens allows for any word or phrase you like to search for. When you do that, the list of places that the word appears will show up. For destruction, there are 40 places but note, not all have the same strongs reference number. That search can take you deeper into the meaning God has for the word you are studying.

Enjoy!

Lupac:
Okay, here's what I was talking about, this is every time G684 appears in the gospels:


--- Quote ---Mat 7:13  Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destructionG684, and many there be which go in thereat:
--- End quote ---

--- Quote ---Mat 26:8  But when his disciples saw it, they had indignation, saying, To what purpose is this wasteG684?
--- End quote ---

--- Quote ---Mar 14:4  And there were some that had indignation within themselves, and said, Why was this wasteG684 of the ointment made?
--- End quote ---

--- Quote ---Joh 17:12  While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perditionG684; that the scripture might be fulfilled.
--- End quote ---

It's used a total of 19 times in the Scriptures. The reason I was asking is, it's a different word than apollumi. I quoted that verse in 2 Peter because it seems to say that the sons of perdition will be destroyed. I guess what I was saying is, there's no verse using the word apōleia that says Jesus will save them, only apollumi. But they are the same word, aren't they?

Lupac,

Many times, the words 'destroyed' or 'destruction' refer to one's spiritual state not one's future destiny. That's what it means when Christ says that His words are spiritual and what it means to 'speak in parables'. These words are used, not in their literal sense, but to portray a spiritual condition.
