Revelation 21:7-8 New American Standard Bible 1995 states: “7 He who overcomes will inherit these things, and I will be his God and he will be My son. 8 But for the cowardly and [a]unbelieving and abominable and murderers and immoral persons and sorcerers and idolaters and all liars, their part will be in the lake that burns with fire and [b]brimstone, which is the second death.””
Many people do not choose to acknowledge God (Yahweh), or the truth of the Bible. Many choose to be their own gods or have other gods (idols).
Some “Christian” church goers hear the truth regularly but don’t allow the life changes the Word can make possible. Without true repentance and belief that Jesus died for their sins and that Jesus is the only way to God they will burn with fire.
2 Peter 3:9 New American Standard Bible 1995
“The Lord is not slow about His promise, as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing for any to perish but for all to come to repentance.” The promise for believers is life in heaven with God. For non-believers they will eternally be in the lake of fire.
I hope that people repent accept Jesus as Lord and Savior and be spared eternity without God.
