rev 3:20
Dave in Tenn:
"Do we really need scripture proof of everything that has been revealed to each other and things that come from your heart?"
Knowing MY heart, line me up with people that DO!

Hi Eileen,
Rev 3:5 He who overcomes shall be clothed in white garments, and I will not blot out his name from the Book of Life; but I will confess his name before My Father and before His angels.
Only those whose name are written in the "Book of Life" - Jesus Christ, those with "white garmants" - righteous, will be in the first resurrection.
All the rest of mankind, those called into the church as well as those not, whose name is not in the "Book of Life" will be in the second resurrection - lake of fire, which is the second death.
Rev 20:11 Then I saw a great white throne and Him who sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away. And there was found no place for them.
v. 12 And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God, and books were opened. And another book was opened, which is the Book of Life. And the dead were judged according to their works, by the things which were written in the books.
v. 13 The sea gave up the dead who were in it, and Death and Hades delivered up the dead who were in them. And they were judged, each one according to his works.
v. 14 Then Death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
v. 15 And anyone not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire.
I believe this is the 'day of the Lord,' but as for it duration...
2Peter 3:7 But the heavens and the earth which are now preserved by the same word, are reserved for fire until the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.
v. 8 But, beloved, do not forget this one thing, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
v. 9 The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.
mercy, peace and love

Kat,
Would this Scripture also help to explain the lake of fire ???:
I Corinthians 3:15:
If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire.

Hi George,
Yes good Scripture for those going to the Lake of fire, but for those in this life too, don't you think.
Mar 9:49 For every one shall be salted with fire, and every sacrifice shall be salted with salt.
mercy, peace and love

Ninny:
Hi guys,
thinking about the verses that Paula and Dewy gave-the ones in Matthew and Nehemiah, Do you think these verses are referring to our works being burned as the verse George was referring to in I Corinthians? Is that what all this shaking is talking about? We have learned to look at all the words and their meanings, so maybe I will search this out a little more! :)
Just thinking,
Kathy :)
