Bible Question:
Shalom y'all, I had had a question a little bit different than the one I'm posing now, this one came up as I was looking up my references, so I'll get to that question later. This one that just popped up is from Rev. 22:14-15. It sounds like, in these 2 verses, that we're at the end of the age and the beginning of eternity? If so, who or what then are the dogs, sorcerers, and sexually immoral, murderers, idolaters, etc. - I thought they had all, by this time. been sent to their judgment? These 2 verses (in my Bible, NKJV) are one sentence, speaking of inside the city and outside the city simultaneously? I'm confused. Thanks much Cheri |
Bible Answer: Hi Cheri, Remember, the spirits in hell/the lake of fire, do not cease to exist, Mark 9:44,46,48, [where THEIR WORM DOES NOT DIE, AND THE FIRE IS NOT QUENCHED.] but will not be allowed to mingle with The Sons of God. God bless John |
