Who Are Subject To Eternal Death? (NLT)

The Devil and His Angels                                2 Peter 2:4 and Revelation 20:10
2 Peter 2:4   God did not spare the angels who sinned, but threw them into hell, where they are kept chained in darkness, waiting for the Day of Judgment.
Revelation 20:10   Then the Devil, who deceived them, was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet had already been thrown; and they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.

 The Antichrist                                                  2 Thessalonians 2:8 and Revelation 19:20
 2 Thessalonians 2:8  Then the Wicked One will be revealed, but when the Lord Jesus comes, he will kill him with the breath from his mouth and destroy him with his dazzling presence.
Revelation 19:20  The beast was taken prisoner, together with the false prophet who had performed miracles in his presence. (It was by those miracles that he had deceived those who had the mark of the beast and those who had worshiped the image of the beast.) The beast and the false prophet were both thrown alive into the lake of fire that burns with sulfur.

Those Who Worship the Beast                         Revelation 14:9-11
Revelation 14:9-11
9    A third angel followed the first two, saying in a loud voice, “Those who worship the beast and its image and receive the mark on their forehead or on their hand 
10  will themselves drink God's wine, the wine of his fury, which he has poured at full strength into the cup of his anger! All who do this will be tormented in fire and sulfur before the holy angels and the Lamb. 
11  The smoke of the fire that torments them goes up forever and ever. There is no relief day or night for those who worship the beast and its image, for anyone who has the mark of its name.”

Those Who Choose the Broad Road                 Matthew 7:13
Matthew 7:13  “Go in through the narrow gate, because the gate to hell is wide and the road that leads to it is easy, and there are many who travel it.

Those Who Live a Wicked Life                          Romans 1:28-31
Romans 1:28-31
28  Because those people refuse to keep in mind the true knowledge about God, he has given them over to corrupted minds, so that they do the things that they should not do. 
29  They are filled with all kinds of wickedness, evil, greed, and vice; they are full of jealousy, murder, fighting, deceit, and malice. They gossip 
30  and speak evil of one another; they are hateful to God, insolent, proud, and boastful; they think of more ways to do evil; they disobey their parents; 
31  they have no conscience; they do not keep their promises, and they show no kindness or pity for others. 

Those Who Do Not Love the Needy                  Matthew 25:41-46
Matthew 25:41-46
41  “Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Away from me, you that are under God's curse! Away to the eternal fire which has been prepared for the Devil and his angels! 
42  I was hungry but you would not feed me, thirsty but you would not give me a drink; 
43  I was a stranger but you would not welcome me in your homes, naked but you would not clothe me; I was sick and in prison but you would not take care of me.’ 
44  Then they will answer him, ‘When, Lord, did we ever see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and we would not help you?’ 
45  The King will reply, ‘I tell you, whenever you refused to help one of these least important ones, you refused to help me.’ 
46  These, then, will be sent off to eternal punishment, but the righteous will go to eternal life.”

Those Who Do Not Believe in Jesus                   John 3:36
John 3:36  Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever disobeys the Son will not have life, but will remain under God's punishment.

False Teachers in the Church                              2 Peter 2:1-17
2 Peter 2:1-17

1    False prophets appeared in the past among the people, and in the same way false teachers will appear among you. They will bring in destructive, untrue doctrines, and will deny the Master who redeemed them, and so they will bring upon themselves sudden destruction. 
2    Even so, many will follow their immoral ways; and because of what they do, others will speak evil of the Way of truth. 
3    In their greed these false teachers will make a profit out of telling you made-up stories. For a long time now their Judge has been ready, and their Destroyer has been wide awake!
4    God did not spare the angels who sinned, but threw them into hell, where they are kept chained in darkness, waiting for the Day of Judgment. 
5    God did not spare the ancient world, but brought the flood on the world of godless people; the only ones he saved were Noah, who preached righteousness, and seven other people. 
6    God condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah, destroying them with fire, and made them an example of what will happen to the godless. 
7    He rescued Lot, a good man, who was distressed by the immoral conduct of lawless people. 
8    That good man lived among them, and day after day he suffered agony as he saw and heard their evil actions. 
9    And so the Lord knows how to rescue godly people from their trials and how to keep the wicked under punishment for the Day of Judgment, 
10  especially those who follow their filthy bodily lusts and despise God's authority.
These false teachers are bold and arrogant, and show no respect for the glorious beings above; instead, they insult them. 
11  Even the angels, who are so much stronger and mightier than these false teachers, do not accuse them with insults in the presence of the Lord. 
12  But these people act by instinct, like wild animals born to be captured and killed; they attack with insults anything they do not understand. They will be destroyed like wild animals, 
13  and they will be paid with suffering for the suffering they have caused. Pleasure for them is to do anything in broad daylight that will satisfy their bodily appetites; they are a shame and a disgrace as they join you in your meals, all the while enjoying their deceitful ways! 
14  They want to look for nothing but the chance to commit adultery; their appetite for sin is never satisfied. They lead weak people into a trap. Their hearts are trained to be greedy. They are under God's curse! 
15  They have left the straight path and have lost their way; they have followed the path taken by Balaam son of Beor, who loved the money he would get for doing wrong 
16  and was rebuked for his sin. His donkey spoke with a human voice and stopped the prophet's insane action.
17  These people are like dried-up springs, like clouds blown along by a storm; God has reserved a place for them in the deepest darkness.


Godless, Greedy People in the Church                 Jude 4:8-13
Jude 4, 8-13
4    For some godless people have slipped in unnoticed among us, persons who distort the message about the grace of our God in order to excuse their immoral ways, and who reject Jesus Christ, our only Master and Lord. Long ago the Scriptures predicted the condemnation they have received.
8    In the same way also, these people have visions which make them sin against their own bodies; they despise God's authority and insult the glorious beings above. 
9    Not even the chief angel Michael did this. In his quarrel with the Devil, when they argued about who would have the body of Moses, Michael did not dare condemn the Devil with insulting words, but said, “The Lord rebuke you!” 
10  But these people attack with insults anything they do not understand; and those things that they know by instinct, like wild animals, are the very things that destroy them. 
11  How terrible for them! They have followed the way that Cain took. For the sake of money they have given themselves over to the error that Balaam committed. They have rebelled as Korah rebelled, and like him they are destroyed. 
12  With their shameless carousing they are like dirty spots in your fellowship meals. They take care only of themselves. They are like clouds carried along by the wind, but bringing no rain. They are like trees that bear no fruit, even in autumn, trees that have been pulled up by the roots and are completely dead. 
13  They are like wild waves of the sea, with their shameful deeds showing up like foam. They are like wandering stars, for whom God has reserved a place forever in the deepest darkness.
