Joe,
Any unrepented sin will be burned out of us in the LOF, if we are judging ourselves now that means God is dragging us through the fire of His Spirit in this age.
Does that mean that anything I have done but have sincerely said I was sorry for and was ashamed of, won't be revealed in the lake of fire? I mean, this is really good news to me if that is true.

I just love the way you put that! Like, too much of anything is just not good for you! The Fruit of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good & Evil is like honey and cream, but eventually, it's just begins to make you sick!
It's mankind's obsession with "wisdom" & "knowledge" and "Power" and trying to be just like God that is sweet and delicious as a pursuit (at first) but eventually, it just begins to destroy you......

Yes Eileen!
Those who God has chosen to be converted in this life/age will not experience the Lake of Fire (on the receiving end) but will actually be a part of the Lake of Fire, His elect will be commissioned to be with Christ in converting the masses as part of God's consuming fire. Even the prophets of old will be dependent on His chosen!
Rom 11:38 (Of whom the world was not worthy:) they wandered in deserts, and in mountains, and in dens and caves of the earth.
Rom 11:39 And these all, having obtained a good report through faith, received not the promise:
Rom 11:40 God having provided some better thing for us, that they without us should not be made perfect.
