Sorry, but the 'evidence' for 'annihilationism' of the lost/wicked is unfortunately contrived at best. John R. Stott tried his best to defend his view but failed miserably. The overwhelming support for the biblical doctrine of eternal punishment is represented over hundreds of years by renowned scholars and laymen alike.

See, for example, J.I. Packer's article here: Evangelical Annihilationism in Review
