In re"Well from some research.
John 5:29 Those resurrected are judged according to their deeds during Judgement day, after their resurrection, since Romans 6:7 says the dead have been acquitted for thier sin. This sets out a period of judgement after the appointed time for resurrection. Besides that, it clearly defines a resurrection, a returning from the dead, it wouldn't make sense to resurrect ones and then destroy them for past wicked deeds.
Among other reasons, "the wild beast and the false prophet" and "death and Hades" will end up in what is here called "the lake of fire." As you may easily conclude, the beast, the false prophet, death, and Hades are not literal persons; therefore, they cannot experience conscious torment. Instead, writes G. B. Caird in A Commentary on the Revelation of St. John the Divine, "the lake of fire" means "extinction and total oblivion." This realization should be easily reached, for the Bible itself states about this lake of fire: "This means the second death, the lake of fire."-Revelation 20:14.
For Rev 14:11
The text states that it is the smoke-the evidence that the fire has done its work of destruction-that continues forever, not the fiery torment.
For Luke 16:22-24
This is obviously a parable not a literal story. Even so "the rich man" of the parable is spoken of as being "buried" in Hades, further showing it's definition as the common grave."
During a conversation with someone I could truthfully say "I believe in evolution", then further on in the conversation I could just as easily say in all truthfulness "I don't believe in evolution". At first glance those statements appear contradictory, but they are not, as the word evolution has more than one meaning.
In the first statement I am referring to the law of evolution, whereas in the second statement I am referring to the theory of evolution. I could further expound on those statements by replacing the word evolution with the appropriate definitions as per what I believe in and what I do not believe in as it relates to evolution.
Had I have said "I believe in evolution, if by evolution you mean a change in the gene pool", or "I don't believe in evolution, if by evolution you are referring to the theory wherein abiogenesis is responsible for all the plants and animals currently in existance" then the apparent contradiction would not exist.
There are a number of other definitions which further develop the concepts that the term evolution encompasses, some of which I agree with, some of which I disagree with, and still others which I am undecided on as I have not seen enough evidence to conclusively convince me that the definition is true, nor have I seen enough evidence to conclusively convince me that the statement is false.
It is all to easy to find a verse in the Bible that can be used to support a belief. Thankfully it is just as easy (here in America) to look up the verse to ensure that it is being used in it's proper context. Unfortunately however, in this day and age of rampant apostasy, more often than not the verse has been taken out of context or has been taken from any one of the number of perverted versions which in many cases the meaning of the verse in question has been so altered from one version to the next that it becomes more a matter of what one wants to believe as opposed to what God said.
Having said that, here is my reply.
Romans 6:7 is clearly written to those who have accepted Christ as their saviour. Anyone who has accepted Christ has been born again in the Spririt of Christ and thus is dead to sin as Christ died for all sins for all time, so anyone who has accepted Him is freed from sin and thusly from the punishment for sin which is eternal death.
"Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. For he that is dead is freed from sin. Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him: Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over him. For in that he died, he died unto sin once: but in that he liveth, he liveth unto God. Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord."
John 5:28-29 states "Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice, And shall come forth; thay that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation."
While it may not make sense to you to resurrect someone unto damnation, that is what the verse clearly indicates will happen. A biblical fact we find support for in Revelation 20:11-15, "And I saw a great white throne, and Him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire."
And for the believers, "we shall all stand before the judgement seat of Christ" Romans 14:10 , "For we must all appear before the judgement seat of Christ" 2 Corinthians 5:10.
As for death and hades (hell), yes I would agree they refer to places and not people. But the notion that the beast (Antichrist) and the false prophet do not refer to individuals I would dissagree based on scripture. Revelation 13:16-18 states "And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand , or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six." (digital angel?) "And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. these both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone." Revelation 19:20
I suppose if Revelation 14:11 was made up of only 11 words, and that was the only time the Lake of fire was being referred to you could interpret it that way but instead let's look at the whole verse, "And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up forever and ever: and they have no rest day or night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name." Certainly it is illogical to say that the words "they have no rest day or night" refers to nothing, as you contend.
Your suggestion that Luke 16:22-24 is a parable and not a literal story is simply not true. Read Luke 16:19-31. A literal conversation is caried out between Abraham and the rich man, and the beggar is named Lazarus. If it was meant as a parable why specify who is talking and what is said, and why does He not state it is a parable as He does for the other parables?
The passage in fact supports the contention that the torment that will be experienced in the lake of fire is a real and literal torment, "And in hell he (the rich man) lifted up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom. And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water , and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame." and it also informs us where those that were saved through faith in the coming Messiah where prior to His death and subsequent resurection wherein the blood needed to cover the sins of the faithful was shed in order that they might be in heaven with God.
Please don't hesitate to read the Bible to ensure that what I have stated here is in accordance with the Word of God.
