You are judging the post on the one hand and yet admit you are confused as to it's purpose?
You have been deceitful on purpose - not clear. It is clear your purpose is to confuse, deceive, or some such thing.

There is no 'may' about it. It is as definite as any verse in Scripture...

Revelation 14:9-10 (KJV) And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb:


There is no "forever" in the verse. If it was meant to be so it would be written in. Unless you have a preference and wish to add in a length of time of your choice.

But there are many other verses that say that the second death is final....dead.

And many confuse the destiny of an eternal wandering in outer darkness for being the same as the lake of fire. Again that is by a fictional preference. It happens a lot.

A judge of motives, good going. Do you read minds as well as hearts?

I didn't realise we were talking about the 'eternity' of hell but rather the fireyness of it. You originally said it was a dark place and I added the heat component.

Title: "Saved to Perish"
Final Day (people "Saved" (they believe) on earth, Who Perish in judgment) : Matthew 7:22
"Many will say to Me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?’ 23 Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you workers of lawlessness!’…"

Those were the ones not born again (never knew you) and they were trusting in their own works..
Matthew 7:22 KJV
[22] Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?

Yes, "the sinning saint dilemma" is a guaranteed thread spinner, and not a bad one to push a slow day on the forum along.
Actually it's the Galatian syndrome...adding our works to the Work of Christ as post #66 tried to pull.

They THOUGHT they were born again,
They ARE TOLD they are born again,
like many today,
They BELIEVE they are born again....

There is no combining of darkness and light. Fire brings light. You may have to think about it for awhile.

Outer darkness has NOTHING to do with hell or the lake of fire. These are opposites.

If you were born again, you would know it. The main point was that those people were appealing to their works...those born again know better.

No, hopefully not apparently you ? , they believed they were born again, and they were not.

It does not matter at all WHY they thought they were born again - Jesus Tells Them be gone...

With man it may be impossible, but not with God.
Hint: There are two different types of 'light' in Genesis 1.
