Here is both awakening

Dan 12:2 And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.

Spoken of this way here

Matt 25:46 And these shall go away into everlasting punishment:
but the righteous into life eternal.

Are these going to end up in the same place as the devil?

Matt 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

Jesus explained it perfectly! Hell fire is EVERLASTING!
Hell fire is the presence of Jesus upon this mortal world in the Day that He returns. Only Jesus is Eternal Fire.
Heb.12[29] For our God is a consuming fire.
1 Thes 2:7-10

Both. To not believe in Jesus causes one to remain condemned forever. KJV John 3:18.

You are refuting both scriptures?


Same word condemnation is damnation here


John 5:29 And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.


Aren't these resurrected unto the same there?

It's all to be understood figuratively. KJV John 3:18 and Romans 8:9 explain it thoroughly.
To be not part of Jesus' resurrection NOW (born again of the Spirit), is to have no resurrection at all after mortal death!!

Acst 24:15 And have hope toward God, which they themselves also allow, that there shall be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and unjust.

You believe those not found in the book of life get cast into God with the devil and his angels?

It's a made made "allowance" to believe that the condemned UNSAVED dead will be raised back to mortal life.
It's a fallacy to believe it to be so.

Why is everything I post that Jesus said is reworded and twisted by you into these strange sentences?

Absolutely not. The living unsaved upon Jesus' return from Heaven will be destroyed, and so will ALL the graves, being that of what remains within them if anything at all!!

For both the unsaved who are dead in their graves, and the living dead walking, it's to be understood in the figurative and not in the literal.
All of such "are condemned ALREADY". John 3:18. Rom. 8:9.

John 3:18 IS THE JUDGMENT of all men, right now and has been, ever since the day of His crucifixion and resurrection.
Listen to Jesus' words to the thief on the cross.
Luke 23
[42] And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom.
[43] And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise.

Figurative? That's JW doctrine! So, eternal life is "figurative"??? Not literal?

The reality for the dead burying their dead is literal

On the one hand one is (very literally) "spiritually" dead while the other being buried is (very literally) phyically dead.

Whats figurative
