Verse 28

It also helps to conquer fear if the disciple will remember that the worst a human adversary can do does not compare with the worst God can do. Jesus was not implying that true believers might go to hell if they do not remain faithful to God. His point was that God has power over the disciple after he dies whereas human adversaries can do nothing beyond killing the disciple’s body. The believer needs to remember that he or she will stand before God one day to give an account of his or her stewardship. Walvoord took "him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell" as a reference to Satan. [Note: Walvoord, Matthew: . . ., p. 77.]
