Man shares the fate of his master.

Hi Nick and Georg:God has forseen every thing from the beginning to the end, and so, the lake of fire was prepared for the devil (the adversary of God. The devil is a spirit.) and his angels (messengers or those who obey the devil.), perhaps both angelic beings and human messengers(there is scripture for these).
Quote Mat 25:41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels: Quote 2Pe 2:4 For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast [them] down to hell, and delivered [them] into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment Rev 20:13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.
Rev 20:15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.
Act 3:23 And it shall come to pass, [that] every soul, which will not hear that prophet, shall be destroyed from among the people.Georg
I think that Peter was saying that those Jews who did not listen to the prophet (Jesus) would be cut off from the people – it was talking about 70AD judgement – he says it was prophecied for those days.
Act 3:22 For Moses truly said unto the fathers, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear in all things whatsoever he shall say unto you.
Act 3:23 And it shall come to pass, [that] every soul, which will not hear that prophet, shall be destroyed from among the people.
Act 3:24 Yea, and all the prophets from Samuel and those that follow after, as many as have spoken, have likewise foretold of these days.
Hi MK,
Acts 2
37Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do?38Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
39For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the LORD our God shall call.
40And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this untoward generation.
As many as the Lord will call seems to carry right through till the judgement.
We look to his return.
Heb9
27And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:28So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.
Hi,
The second death should not faze those who have heard the warnings and obeyed them.
God wants all to be saved and spared His wrath.Nick……….you have not one single proof of one single Human person going into a literal lake of literal Fire and Perishing, NON whatsoever Brother your are speculating about a symbolic Word. There is far more scripture that shows Fire as being Symbolic for Judgment then anything else. Even Death can be seen differently. (All must die), (Whosoever will save His life will lose it) , So if you don't lose it in the first life , you must lose it in the second life. another words does losing life mean perishing or Losing the way you live and living differently. Both have death of some Kind attached to them right. How do you know that those who don't die to their life now will be resurrected and then have to die to their life then, See what I mean DEATH does not have to mean (PARISH). Even though the old life does Parish, but the new life continues. IMO
love and peace to you and yours………………………………gene
GB,
You meant this judgement?
Mt10
28`And be not afraid of those killing the body, and are not able to kill the soul, but fear rather Him who is able both soul and body to destroy in gehenna.Nck…….The word fear there is reverence or respect , not the fear you speak of . Jesus never taught us to FEAR God bit to Honor and LOVE HIM., and if you do truly LOVE Him the that LOVE will cast OUT your fears Nick because fear has torment , and the father doesn't want you to go around tormented. And remember its the goodness of GOD that leads us to repentance , not the fear of Him. The ones who will have there part in the lake of fire are the fearful and unbelieving .

A child should fear displeasing his father. IT's not a morbid dreadful fear, but a healthy respectful fear.
Quote (Nick Hassan @ Mar. 17 2008,08:25) Hi 94,
Which means it was not originally intended for men…. but they chose to follow Satan.
Hi Nick:I don't believe that God intended it for anyone. But whoever chooses to continue to obey evil without repenting, will go there.
Quote Jhn 3:19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. Hi 94,
Mt25
41Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:David………respect and reverence are not the same as FEAR in the English language. I have alway agreed we should Revere and Respect our Heaven FATHER. But FEAR is different and produces all kinds of Paranoias. I would never want anyone to be fearful of Me much less my Children. I respected and Loved my Father all my life and i never feared Him. And as far as the lake of Fire goes ,The fearful and the unbelieving will have their part in it according to scripture. If you have the Love of God shed around in your Heart you will love GOD and keep His commandments. IMO
peace…………………………….gene
