Revelation 20:15
Was cast into the lake of fire. Into the same lake of fire, that
prison house to which have gone the false prophet and the beast, to
which has been consigned the dragon, "that old serpent the devil"
(Revelation 12:9 20:2), the "eternal fire which has been prepared for the
devil and his angels" (Matthew 25:41). There shall also be banished
those whose "name has not been written in the book of life"
(Revelation 13:8 17:8).
This is the second death. As far as Inspiration throws its light
upon the sad lot of those consigned to that "lake of fire"
(Revelation 19:20 20:10,14,15), theirs is an eternal fire. When some one
has shown that doors of this final prison of the Universe have opened
to permit the escape of those who have been consigned to its keeping,
then we may perhaps indulge some hope that its prisoners will, in the
lapse of endless years, escape from their sad environment.
