In Matthew 13:12; Matthew 25:29-30; Luke 19:26; Mark 4:25; and Luke 8:18, Jesus taught that those who possess something will have more given to them, but that those who possess nothing will have even that nothingness taken from them. All of the good ideas within them, including the useful idea of nothing, belongs to God and He will recover all that belongs to Him. Romans 11:36. Those who possess only the idea of nothing will have even this idea recovered by God so they will be reduced to absolute nothingness. This is their deadness. Their deadness, which can also be called their negative consciousness, God will cast into the lake of fire. The lake of fire is something. It is God's consuming fire. It is a useful system created by God to constantly reduce the dead to negative consciousness. Their torment will be their constant yearning to return to positive consciousness, but their torment will forever prevent them from ever negatively affecting God's reality again. Revelation 20:15.
Revelation 21:8 describes these absolute dead. In their lives, they misused the goodness and life that God had given them. This was their sin and evil. They tended to replace the good systems that God created them to be and to have with negative and destructive systems. The unbelievers did not have faith. The murderers negated life. The whoremongers negated the good system of love called marriage. The liars negated the truth. The sorcerers negated the healthy mind. The idolaters joined with the Devil in trying to negate God Himself. Negative consciousness conditioned much of their lives, and God will cast their deadness into the second death called the lake of fire.
But Jesus also taught that those who have something will be given even more. Everyone who has ever genuinely loved, has ever given good things to others, has ever practiced kindness and morality, have demonstrated that they possess the image of God that He created them to be. They have practiced some of the good and creative systems that God put into their lives. John 3:27; Genesis 1:27. God will give them more. Those who receive Christ by faith while still alive in the flesh will receive the gifts of grace and sanctification while still in the flesh and eternal life with God in heaven forever. John 3:16. Those who fail to find faith while still in the flesh will still find faith as prophesied in Isaiah 45:21-24 and as fulfilled in Revelation 5:13. All those saved by grace will receive recreated bodies and return to God in prior resurrections, but the general resurrection will be reserved for all those who still lie in their graves. John 5:28-29; Revelation 20:5. God will recover and recreate all of His life and goodness that He has put into every man because it all belongs to Him, some by His grace and all others in the general resurrection. God will allow all humans recreated in the general resurrection to live on His recreated earth, Revelation 21:5.
In the end, God will purge all sin and evil from His universe and recreate it so that sin and evil will never be able to enter it again. God will not allow the false trinity called the Devil to be reduced to negative consciousness. God will cast the beast, the false prophet, and the devil alive into the lake of fire. God will deliberately replace their negative consciousness with a positive consciousness so that they will feel the direct burning of the flames forever. The negative systems that the Devil introduced into God's reality often produced terrible pain in the lives of humans. God will make sure he gets what he deserves. God will subject the Devil to his own attempt to ruin God's reality forever. The Devil possesses a high degree of intellect even though it is negative. He can often easily deceive humans. God will make certain that the Devil becomes so absorbed in such terrible pain that he will never be able to even think of any way to infect God's creations with sin again forever. Revelation 19:20; Revelation 20:10.
