Just kidding. My brother, I don't share that belief. Those of us who look to Jesus purify ourselves and we will be transformed into perfection the nice and easy way. The "Lake of Fire" is for others, not us.
1 John 3:3 esv
And everyone who thus hopes in him
purifies himself as he is pure.
2 Corinthians 3:18 esv
And we all, with unveiled face, beholding the glory of the Lord,
are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another. For this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit.
1 Corinthians 15:50-52
50 I tell you this, brothers: flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable. 51 Behold! I tell you a mystery. We shall not all sleep, but
we shall all be changed, 52 in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we shall be changed
The "Lake of Fire" refines the wicked into perfection. Thankfully, we are not in need of that process.
Revelation 19:20 YLT
and the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet who did the signs before him, in which he led astray those who did receive the mark of the beast, and those who did bow before his image; living they were cast -- the two --
to the lake of the fire, that is burning with brimstone
Revelation 20:10 YLT
and the Devil, who is leading them astray, was cast into
the lake of fire and brimstone, where [are] the beast and the false prophet, and they shall be tormented day and night -- to the ages of the ages.
At the end of the ages, the devil's refinement will be complete even he too will be a loyal servant of God.
Philippians 2:10-11 so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, 11 and
every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
Romans 10:9 because,
if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead,
you will be saved.
God will
not eliminate Satan from existence, nor will he banish Satan forever.
2 Samuel 14:14
We must all die; we are like water spilled on the ground, which cannot be gathered up again.
But God will not take away life, and he devises means so that the banished one will not remain an outcast.
1 Corinthians 15:22-28
22 For as in Adam all die,
so also in Christ shall all be made alive. 23 But each in his own order: Christ the firstfruits, then at his coming those who belong to Christ.
24 Then comes the end, when he delivers the kingdom to God the Father after destroying every rule and every authority and power. 25 For he must reign until he has put all his enemies under his feet. 26 The last enemy to be destroyed is death.
27 For “God[
c] has put all things in subjection under his feet.” But when it says, “all things are put in subjection,” it is plain that he is excepted who put all things in subjection under him.
28 When all things are subjected to him, then the Son himself will also be subjected to him who put all things in subjection under him,
that God may be all in all.
