Amazing the lengths people will go to in their attempts to twist simple statements that they just cannot accept into something totally false.
The lake of fire is the eternal lake of fire and people will be caste into it and they will be in torment forever and ever.
If people don't believe that then so be it. But trying to twist the scriptures into saying something totally different to what it clearly states smacks of the desperation of those who cling onto anything that will save them from fear.
All Praise The Ancient Of Days
I see you have forgotten to take the tablets ( pun intended) again.
