Is that Luke a ferrous representation of the irony or satire of life down here compared to outer domains ... that inverted by the I-of-mined ... may be in*nous*sent to disrupt the hubris with a hairy nemesis? Thus Ba'aL'd lyres ... the cat gotte well spun ...

Allows for metaphysical kitties ... in your dreams and aspirations!

It is the belief that there is a book (whether literal or figurative depends on who you speak to) in which the names of those redeemed by Christ ("the Lamb of God") are recorded. In other words, it's the names of all those who are "saved." The phrase comes from a couple of passages in the Book of Revelation.

Revelation 13 speaks of the beast who will lure/tempt, etc. the inhabitants of the world away from faith in God and will make them worship it instead. As in Revelation 13:8: "all the inhabitants of the earth will worship it, everyone whose name has not been written from the foundation of the world in the book of life of the Lamb that was slaughtered." ("The Lamb that was slaughtered" being Christ.)

Revelation 21 speaks of the new Jerusalem, which will be the dwelling place of God's people in eternity. It is said in v.27 that "... nothing unclean will enter it, nor anyone who practices abomination or falsehood, but only those who are written in the Lamb's book of life."
 
Just kidding Jack about the pop-ups in the kids before they gather information of wisdom ... then they move on as mortals ontologically ... thus the screwing about with the mythological is continuum!

--Hi Rev Steve--
You seem to have missed one. Rev20: 15
Rev 20:15and if any one's name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire.

Nope. Didn't miss any. No specific reference to the Lamb in Revelation 20:15. Although I'll concede that it's implied.

Seems like a lot of people as destined for this "lake of fire". What happens when the lake is full? Do they take another lake and fill it with fire? And how would one go about doing that?

Also, what are the effects of fire on the dead? When I'm in this lake of fire, will I be all, "Ouch, ouch, this sure is hot?" Will I ever acclimate to my new environment?
 
If into that pool ... you may later burn with envy ... wishing you'd 've known what would occur if you left leavings there ...

The sacred part about love making in GEO Ghia... you never know the outcome of buns rising to your cause ...

Some say; assume the position! It is better if not a militant action and both are right into it ... and thye smoke together in the after glow ... that's Don ... a hole in the night when one takes a break from loving the dar-Ka Eire ... the Roué's of the Shadow pre-veil? Some say it resembles a Black Swan ... divers exception!

Pure poe Tics ... po' lyre understood and thus a code ...

I've been told there are no sacred codes ... perhaps just because people (eM) don't wish to know in their present state? Still smoking embers after the fallout?

More than a few I suspect. Probably not as many as some would like if God actually proves to be more gracious than we who seek to follow him.

At most it is whomever is left out of the great multitude which is beyond counting also mentioned in the same book.

That question is neither asked nor answered in the book. Perhaps the author saw no danger of overflowing and connected flooding.

If that is the case then I go back to the first answer and emphasize the fewer than some would like element.

Stab in the dark. They burn?

That is presumptuous. Not content to let God judge showing him you know better eh?

At any rate this topic is one, which quite sadly, some cannot get enough of and leads to all kind of horror porn masquerading as decent Christian thought and theology.

The book of Revelation belongs to the apocalyptic genre which means it is more suggestive than it actually is descriptive and is best understood in its literary context as opposed to literally.

The book suggests suffering. It does not describe how or from what. The assumption is physical pain from burning I think that is too easy and too gratuitous to be likely. I think the truth will be worse than that and I have no desire or interest in dwelling on just how horrible it might be. Horror porn is not my thing.

There is also debate on the language used to explain duration. Some argue for an interpretation which posits this suffering is eternal. While ironically the most literal interpretation is to the end of the age. Which age? Also a matter of debate.

Those who believe fear of death and suffering are the better evangelical strategies find an eternity of torment to be aces up the sleeve in winning souls to Jesus.

Others exist who believe that the book of Revelation is not intended to terrify but rather to comfort. I'm one of those. I don't ignore the scary bits. I am not convinced they were meant to be the message or the focus.

So if you really want to dwell on the horror porn element you'll have to find one of the fear mongers to continue that conversation with.

If you could it would turn out to be not much of a punishment.

Fire is used heavily as a refining element in scripture.

One of the non physical pain outcomes of finding yourself in a refiners fire is that you may be found to be nothing but dross.

If that is the case eventually there would be nothing to even have that thought with.

I would say GOD had already known how many would be there, so I am sure it is big enough. I here there is to be a complaint office there though . It will be run just like the governments ,here in Canada". You go there and complain . Five minutes later they forget it.:)

--Oh come on " You will never have to worry about that about a suntan. I am not sure about the other part to your question. I can say you will have a long time to find out it you do.

But, by your own witness unsafe, you are still a homosexual. Is it your belief that because you are saved you now have license to do/be the things described in verses 9-10? You said that you take the Scriptures literally. If you do, how can you consider yourself an inheritor of the Kingdom of God since you are still a homosexual?
