Proverbs 15:24 (KJB)
This verse constitutes a prophecy that Christ will resurrect all of His living humans from the bowels of Hell. Revelation 5:11-14 (KJB). This verse directly contradicts those who contend that when living humans go to Hell, they stay there forever. In fact, no verse in the entire Bible states that living humans stay in Hell forever. Jesus Himself contradicted that belief when He taught that He is the resurrection and the life of all dead humans who believe in Him. John 11:25; Revelation 5:11-14 (KJB).
This verse states that "the way of life is above." Only Jesus is the way and the life, and so this verse prophesies that Christ will appear above Hell to all living humans confined there. John 14:6; Revelation 5:11-14 (KJB). Christ will appear to the "wise," which means they will all be smart enough to realize that when they come to faith in Christ as their Savior, He will have the power to get them out of Hell. When they repent and return to the faith in Christ that He put into them when He created them, then Christ will separate their living natures from their spiritual deaths so that He can resurrect their living natures and condemn their dead natures to the eternal lake of fire. Genesis 1:31; Genesis 1:27; II Peter 3:9-13; I Corinthians 3:11-15; Matthew 13:36-43; Revelation 20:5; Revelation 20:11-15 (KJB). This verse cannot be spiritually interpreted to mean that Hell is inside humans. Hell is not inside humans. Hell is a place "beneath;" that is, under the ground, just as this verse states. Genesis 3:17 (KJB).
Spiritual death is inside all humans which causes all humans to sin and some to commit evil acts which means that God must condemn all living humans who fail to repent of their sins and evil and accept Christ as their Savior while still alive in the flesh to the regions of death when they die. John 8:23-24; Hebrews 9:27 (KJB). But since Christ has abolished death, and since all living humans live in God's sight, then Christ will appear to all of His living humans confined to the regions of death in the end of the world, and He will cause them all to repent and return to faith in Him as the Lamb of God their Savior so that He can resurrect them all and recreate them all with new lives on His recreated earth. II Timothy 1:10; Luke 20:38; Revelation 5:11-14; Revelation 20:5; Revelation 21:1-5; Revelation 22:11-12 (KJB).

Commentary on Selected Proverbs
Proverbs 12:28 (KJB)
God possesses two forms of righteousness. God creates mankind in His image which means God puts a created form of righteousness into every human that He creates. But in God's Being, He is Holy and righteous. Genesis 1:31; Genesis 1:27; Isaiah 6:3; I John 2:1 (KJB).
God can never lose anything He has ever created. Ecclesiastes 3:14; Psalm 111:7-8 (KJB). This means God can never lose His created righteousness that He puts into every human. Because Adam fell into sin, all humans commit sins, but their sins can never annul the righteous image of God that He puts into them. If it did, then all humans would become totally evil and demonic and unable to do any good at all. But all humans do some good works that God has given them to do which proves that they still retain that righteous image of God that He created them to be. Isaiah 26:12; Romans 3:23 (KJB).
Whenever any human becomes old enough to sin and commits a sin, the Devil injects spiritual death into their inner beings as a penalty for their sin. Genesis 2:17; Genesis 3:15 (KJB). This means every human who sins acquires a dual nature, a righteous nature and an evil nature. God allows this event to happen because God desires to prove that His Almighty Love and His Almighty Power and Intellect can and will crush and purge all sin, evil, spiritual death, and the Devil from His entire creation so that He can recreate it all to possess an everlasting righteousness. II Peter 3:9-13 (KJB). God intends to save every living human He has ever created in His image from eternal death. Revelation 21:5 (KJB).
All of this stems from Lucifer's rebellion against God. God used His fiery wrath against evil to dissolve Lucifer's being to recover all the goodness He put into him, and He exiled his demonic nature to earth as a negative consciousness called Satan. Isaiah 14:12-17; Ezekiel 28:12-19 (KJB). But the Devil did not give up on his desire to murder God. John 8:44 (KJB). Lucifer's rebellion caused doubt to enter into God's creation about the Almighty Power of God's Love to retain within His possession all that He creates. Matthew 28:16-17 (KJB). The aim of the Devil is to cause at least one living human to become totally evil and demonic and thereby prove that God's Love for His creation can fail because God would lose that living human to spiritual death forever. Job 1:11; Job 2:5; Job 2:9 (KJB). Satan knew that he would get his chance to murder God when God would allow His Son to be nailed to a cross. Luke 22:53 (KJB). But Jesus suffered the eternal deaths of all of His living humans on the cross, and because of that, He turned eternal death into a temporary death by His resurrection from the dead. Hebrews 2:9-18; II Timothy 1:10; Revelation 1:17-18 (KJB). Jesus judged only the Devil and all of his evil works on the cross, not any of His living humans that He loves. John 12:31-32; John 12:47; I John 3:8 (KJB).
Christ has saved all of His living humans from eternal death. I Timothy 4:10 (KJB). But in order to be saved, all living humans must return to faith in Christ as their Savior that He puts into them when He creates them. Habakkuk 2:4 (KJB). God has a plan to make that happen. But living humans saved by grace happen to be a special case of salvation just as I Timothy 4:10 relates. Jesus shed His blood and water on the cross to cleanse all sin, evil, and spiritual death from all living humans who would repent and believe in Him as their Savior while still alive in the flesh. Revelation 1:5; I John 1:9; John 5:24 (KJB). God adopts living humans saved by His grace into His own family because He gives them the everlasting Life and righteousness of Christ Himself by which He can accept them into Heaven to live with Him there forever. God also causes humans saved by grace to represent Christ to the world after Jesus ascended to heaven. John 17:1-26 (KJB).
But Christ will also save with a lesser form of salvation all of His living humans confined to the regions of death when He appears to them in the end of the world, and He will cause them all to repent and return to faith in Him as the Lamb of God their Savior. Revelation 5:11-14 (KJB). Christ will use His fiery wrath against evil to dissolve their beings to separate their repentant, living souls and spirits from their dead and evil natures so that He can recreate their living natures with new bodies to live forever on His recreated earth, and He will cast their spiritual dead natures into the eternal lake of fire. II Peter 3:9-13; I Corinthians 3:11-15; Psalm 75:3; Revelation 20:5; Revelation 20: 11-15; Revelation 21:1-5; Revelation 22:11-12 (KJB). God will give these living humans His recreated life and righteousness as they live on His new earth. But God will give the very righteousness and Life of Christ only to all living humans who become saved by His grace. II Corinthians 5:21; Colossians 3:4 (KJB).
The logic of Proverbs 12:28 is simple. Since God creates everything to be good, then He creates humans to be righteous. Genesis 1:31; Genesis 1:27 (KJB). Since God can never lose anything He ever creates, then He cannot lose the righteous humans that He creates in His image. Ecclesiastes 3:14; Psalm 111:7-8 (KJB). Therefore, there can be no permanent death for any righteous, living human. John 5:24; Revelation 5:11-14; Revelation 20:5; Revelation 21:1-5; Luke 20:38; II Timothy 1:10 (KJB).

Commentary on Selected Proverbs
Proverbs 10:12 (KJB)
This verse happens to be particularly significant to the fact that God will provide some form of salvation for the whole human race. Since "God is Love," then this verse can only be about God's Love since only God's Love can cover all sins. I John 4:8 (KJB). Since love can never fail, then certainly God's Love can never fail. I Corinthians 13:8 (KJB).
The word "cover" in the Old Testament sometimes meant sins forgiven and remitted. Leviticus 16:13; Psalm 32:1 (KJB). When the Apostle Peter quoted Proverbs 10:12, he used the word "the" to state that love will "cover the multitude of sins." I Peter 4:8 (KJB). By His use of the word "the," the Holy Spirit had to have meant the entire set of all sins that have ever been committed. Neither verse states that God will cover only some sins. If God should ever cast His living humans that He loves into an eternal lake of fire, then their sins would certainly not be covered and forgiven. But God's Word clearly states that God will cast only dead humans into the lake of fire. Revelation 20:11-15 (KJB).
Since God saves only some humans by His grace, then He must have another form of salvation for the rest of humanity since He will cover and forgive all sins ever committed. God will reveal His lesser form of salvation when Christ visits the regions of death in the end of the world, and He will cause all of His living humans confined there to repent and believe in Him as the Lamb of God their Savior. Revelation 5:11-14 (KJB). Christ will then use His fiery wrath against evil to dissolve all of their beings in order to separate their repentant, living natures from their dead and evil natures so that He can recreate their living natures to live forever on His new earth, and He will cast their separated, dead and evil natures into the eternal lake of fire. II Peter 3:9-13; Psalm 75:3; I Corinthians 3:11-15; Matthew 13:36-43; Revelation 20:5; Revelation 20:11-15; Revelation 21:1-5 (KJB).
Jesus taught that not only could He save by His grace those who believe in Him while still alive in the flesh, but He could also save those who are dead; that is, confined to the regions of death, when they believe in Him. John 11:25-26 (KJB). Christ proved that He could do both when He raised Lazarus from the dead. John 11:38-44 (KJB).

Commentary on Selected Proverbs
Proverbs 10:30 (KJB)
This verse declares that "the righteous shall never be removed." When God creates living humans in His image, He creates them to be righteous and good. Genesis 1:31; Genesis 1:27 (KJB). Since God can never lose anything He has ever created, then this righteous image of God in every human must remain forever. It can "never be removed." Ecclesiastes 3:14; Psalm 111:7-8 (KJB).
But when the weakness of free will in Adam caused him to fall into sin, then the Devil became able to inject spiritual death into Adam and Eve and all of their descendants. Genesis 2:17; Genesis 3:15 (KJB). Since Adam and all living humans have sinned and will sin, then they all become worthy of eternal spiritual death and separation from God's Love forever because God can never accept sin and evil. Habakkuk 1:12-13 (KJB). The Devil is happy to give humans this spiritual death. The "seed" of the Devil is spiritual death planted into the hearts of every living human. This means every human who lives long enough to sin possesses a dual nature; that is, a good and living nature and a dead and evil nature. For this reason, the most righteous humans who ever lived commit some sins, and the most evil humans who ever lived do some good.
This verse teaches that God can never lose the righteous nature that He puts into humans. God evidently has a plan to forever save the righteous natures of all humans whom He creates in His image. This verse also prophesies that "the wicked shall not inhabit the earth" which implies that the righteous natures of humans can inhabit the earth.
But in order to accomplish this salvation, God must dissolve the dual natures of humans in order to separate their righteous natures from their evil natures. Psalm 75:3; II Peter 3:9-13 (KJB). This means every living human must return to the faith that God put into them when He created them so that God can save all of His living humans from eternal death. Habukkuk 2:4 (KJB).
God actually has two ways in which He can save every living human from spiritual death which threatens to become eternal death. When Jesus, who is God, suffered and died on the cross, He shed His blood and water to wash away the sins and evil, and annul the spiritual deaths, of all living humans who would return to faith in Him while still alive in the flesh. Revelation 1:5; John 13:6-8; John 5:24 (KJB).
But Jesus died on the cross to remove spiritual death from the lives of all His living humans. Hebrews 2:9-13 (KJB). Because He was dead for only three days, Jesus turned eternal spiritual death into temporary death when He rose from the dead victorious over all sin, evil, spiritual death, and the Devil. I John 3:8; Revelation 1:17-18 (KJB)
In order to accomplish His lesser form of salvation for all living humans confined to the regions of death, Christ will visit them in the end of the world, and He will cause them all to repent and return to faith in Him as the Lamb of God their Savior. Upon their repentance and faith, Christ will be able to use His fiery wrath against evil to dissolve their beings in order to separate their faithful, living natures from their spiritually dead natures so that He can resurrect and recreate their living natures to possess an eternal life on His recreated earth, and He will cast their separated, dead and evil natures into an eternal lake of fire. Proverbs 10:30; Revelation 5:11-14; II Peter 3:9-13; Revelation 20:5; Revelation 20:11-15; Revelation 22:11-12; Revelation 21:1-5 (KJB). The promise and prophecy of Revelation 21:5, "Behold, I make all things new," must be fulfilled. Christ will recover and recreate every living human that He ever created in His image. Romans 11:36 (KJB).

Commentary on Selected Psalms
Psalm 147:5 (KJB)
This verse relates that God possesses an Almighty Intellect. Since "God is Love," then one would think that God could devise a plan to save all of His living humans that He creates in His image from eternal death and the Devil. I John 4:8; I Timothy 4:10 (KJB). Since the "all" in the first part of I Corinthians 15:22 must be the same "all" as in the second part of this verse, then God has certainly devised such a plan. Since God has "abolished death," and all of His living humans are alive to Him, then surely He has devised such a plan. II Timothy 1:10; Genesis 3:20; Luke 20:38 (KJB). Since God has promised, "Behold, I make all things new," and His living humans are a part of His creation, then He must have devised such a plan. Revelation 21:5; John 5:28-29; John 11:25-26 (KJB).
Psalm 131:1 (KJB)
In this verse, king David relates that he cannot understand "great matters" or "things too high for me." All humans cannot understand much of God's Word as they read it. Even the prophets themselves did not understand a lot of what they wrote. But if humans could fully understand God, He would not be God. But humans can understand that "God is Love," and His Love can never fail. I John 4:8; I Corinthians 13:8 (KJB). If humans can understand that, then they can understand that God can never lose anything He has ever created, including all of His living humans. Ecclesiastes 3:14; Genesis 3:20; Luke 20:38; II Timothy 1:10; I Timothy 4:10; I Corinthians 15:22; Revelation 21:5 (KJB).
Psalm 148:1-15 (KJB).
Psalm 148 clearly prophesies that literally everything that God has created will worship and praise Him forever. Verse 6 clearly relates that God has "stablished them for ever and ever." This can only mean that God can never lose anything He has ever created, and it will all praise Him forever. Verse 11 includes "all people" in this prophecy. Therefore, this Psalm must mean that God will provide some form of salvation for every living human He has ever created. Revelation 21:5 (KJB).

Commentary on Selected Psalms
Psalm 146:9-10 (KJB)
Psalm 146:9 amounts to a prophecy that God will preserve the Gentiles just as assuredly as He will preserve the Jews. God admonished the ancient Israelites that they should treat any stranger who lived among them; that is, any Gentile, with equality and respect as long as they obeyed the laws. Levitcus 19:33-34 (KJB). God promised that He will raise the entire nation of Israel from the dead and restore them to the land that He gave them. Ezekiel 37:11-14 (KJB). God has extended this prophecy to the Gentiles. Isaiah 14:1; Psalm 36:6 (KJB). God never preserves anything for a limited time. That would not be a preservation at all. When God preserves something, it stands to reason, that he preserves it as long as He lives, which is forever.
God has two forms of salvation for all people. God has saved and will save some Jews and some Gentiles by His grace. Jesus purchased their salvation with the blood and water He shed on the cross. I Peter 1:18-19; John 13:6-8 (KJB). When humans saved by grace physically die, their souls and spirits go directly to Heaven. John 17:24 (KJB). The fleshly natures of believers saved by grace can still sin, but God will cleanse them and forgive them as they daily repent of their sins. I John 1:9 (KJB). When Christ Raptures His Church, He will give perfect, spiritual bodies to all His believers that will be like His own spiritual body. II Corinthians 5:1-10; I John 3:2 (KJB). Christ will make sure that all believers who failed to daily repent will thoroughly repent at the Rapture so that He can wash them clean with the water of His Word and sanctify them so that He can present His entire Church to His Father as being absolutely pure and holy. Ephesians 5:25-27 (KJB).
God also has a lesser form of salvation for all humans who do not become saved by grace. In the end of the world, Christ will appear to all humans that God had to confine to the regions of death because they died in their sins, and He will cause them all to repent and believe in Him as the Lamb of God their Savior. John 8:23-24; Revelation 5:11-14 (KJB). Upon their repentance and faith, Christ will use His fiery wrath against evil to dissolve their beings and melt them down to purify them in order to separate their repentant, living souls and spirits from their wicked and dead natures so that He can save their living natures and cast their dead natures into the lake of fire. I Corinthians 3:11-15; I Corinthians 4:5; Matthew 13:36-43; II Peter 3:9-13; Psalm 75:3; Genesis 8:20-21 (KJB). Christ will then raise all of His living humans from the regions of death and recreate them with new bodies to live forever on His recreated earth. Revelation 20:5; Revelation 21:1-5; John 5:28-29; John 11:25-26; Revelation 22:11-12 (KJB).
Psalm 146:10 prophesies that God will "reign forever" over "all generations," which can only mean every human who ever lived.

On the Possible Nature of Gravity
Gravity could be a pushing force instead of an attractive force. Gravity could be the same as dark matter which surrounds galaxies and pushes in on them causing them to form stars and planets. But as the force of dark matter spills over into the galaxies, it becomes weaker but still strong enough to form stars and planets which resist its force. But gravity would still have enough power to collapse some stars into black holes. At the same time that dark matter pushes in on galaxies, it would also push galaxies apart which would account for the expansion of the universe.
All of this means that gravity happens to be a destructive force, not a creative force. Gravity attempts to crush matter into non-existence in black holes, and at the same time, attempts to push galaxies to the speed of light which would annul their matter.
Quantum mechanics has shown that only consciousness can collapse an energy wave to a particle which has mass. If E=MC square, then M=E/C square. If C square indicates a Consciousness that pervades the universe, then this Consciousness has divided the energy of the universe into particles of matter. This Consciousness has created the electromagnetic force and the strong force that forms atoms. As gravity attempts to crush these atoms out of existence, it only causes them to coalesce into stars and galaxies. In this way, the Consciousness that pervades the universe uses a destructive force in a creative way to form the universe.
If all of this is true, then scientists will never be able to find a formula that will reconcile gravity with matter because these are opposite and opposing forces.

Commentary on Selected Psalms
Psalm 145:20-21 (KJB)
God creates every living human in His image, and so He creates every living human to be good. Since one cannot be good without love, then God puts love for Him into every living human that He creates. Genesis 1:31; Genesis 1:27 (KJB). But the Devil has injected spiritual death, which causes sin and evil, into the hearts of every human. Genesis 2:17; Genesis 3:15 (KJB). This condition causes all humans to sin, but it can cause some humans to become so overpowered by sin and evil that they ignore God or even hate Him. Humans can suppress their love for God, but they can never annul it because God can never lose anything He has ever created. Ecclesiastes 3:14 (KJB). Since God possesses an Almighty Love that cannot fail and an Almighty Intellect, then He has devised a plan to call all of His living humans back to love for Him and faith in Him so that He can save them all from eternal death. John 5:24; Revelation 5:11-14 (KJB). Christ sacrificed Himself on a cross and rose from the dead to take away the spiritual deaths of all living humans, and the sins and evil that causes it and results from it. John 12:31-32; II Timothy 1:10; Revelation 1:17-18; I John 3:8; Revelation 21:5 (KJB).
God will preserve all of His living humans because He will restore love for Him and faith in Him to them all. John 5:24; Revelation 5:11-14; Psalm 36:6 (KJB). God will cast only their dead and wicked natures that He has separated from their repentant, living natures into the eternal lake of fire. Revelation 20:5; Revelation 20:11-15 (KJB).
King David could praise the Lord, and he could prophecy that "all flesh" will worship and praise God forever. "All flesh" can only worship and praise God if they are all alive. Joel 2:28-29; Luke 3:6; John 5:24; Revelation 5:11-14; I Corinthians 15:22; Revelation 21:5; Revelation 22:11-12 (KJB).

Commentary on Selected Psalms
Psalm 145:13-19 (KJB)
Verse 13 clearly teaches that God's kingdom lasts forever, and His kingdom has "dominion" "throughout all generations." The phrase "all generations" can only mean all humans who have ever lived. The word "throughout" can only mean that God will extend His rule over every human who ever lived in His kingdom that lasts forever. In order to do this, God must save every human He has ever created from eternal, spiritual death, some by His grace and all others when Christ visits all of His living humans confined to the regions of death and causes them all to repent and return to faith in Him as the Lamb of God their Savior. John 5:24; Revelation 5:11-14; John 5:28-29 (KJB).
Verse 14 prophesies that God "upholdeth;" that is, saves, "all that fall;" that is, all sinners, which means every human who ever lived. God will raise from the dead "all those that be bowed down." This can only be a prophecy that God will visit all of His living humans confined to the regions of death, and He will cause them all to repent and return to faith in Him as their Savior so that He can resurrect them all back to life and recreate them all with a new life on His recreated earth. Revelation 5:11-14; Revelation 20:5; Revelation 21:1-5 (KJB).
Verse 15 teaches that all humans "wait" for God's salvation even though the atheists and other unbelievers have "changed the truth of God into a lie." Romans 1:25 (KJB). All humans yearn for some form of salvation, but most of them repress their yearning for God's salvation. The atheists look for some future, man-made utopia. Those who believe that physical death will annul their consciousness hope that that event will relieve them of the sufferings and pains of life. Just as a hearty meal will satisfy the hunger of every person, so God will give His "meat" in due time to every soul who yearns for His salvation.
Verse 16 teaches that since "the desire of every living thing" is life itself, then God will save the lives of all His living humans from the terrors of spiritual death.
Verse 17 teaches that God makes all of His ways and all of His works righteous and holy. This can only mean that everything that God creates can never become permanently unrighteous or unholy. God created all of His living humans to be righteous and holy. Genesis 1:27 (KJB). Whatever God creates lasts forever. Ecclesiastes 3:14 (KJB). Living humans can become stained by sin and evil which needs to be cleansed and forgiven by God, but the living natures of humans can never be utterly destroyed by sin and evil. This fact can only mean that God will provide a salvation from sin, evil, and spiritual death for all His living humans that he creates in His image. Ecclesiastes 3:14; Revelation 21:5 (KJB).
Verses 18-19 prophesies that God will save by His grace all living humans who call upon Him in faith while still alive in the flesh. Romans 10:13 (KJB).
The spiritual death that the Devil injects into the inner beings of all of God's living humans causes all humans to sin and some to commit evil acts. Genesis 2:17; Genesis 3:15 (KJB). The "seed" of the Devil is spiritual death. This spiritual death threatens to annul and eternally destroy the spiritual life that God puts into every human that He creates, but God can never lose anything He has ever created. Job 1:11-12; Job 2:5-6; Job 2:9-10; Ecclesiastes 3:14; Genesis 1:27 (KJB). Humans happen to be completely helpless to save themselves. But that which is impossible for humans is possible with God. Matthew 19:26 (KJB). The Lord Jesus Christ took all spiritual death, and all of the sins and evil that causes it and results from it, on Himself on a cruel cross and suffered its eternal effects in man's place. When Jesus rose from the dead, He turned eternal, spiritual death into temporary death. II Timothy 1:10; Revelation 1:17-18 (KJB). Jesus judged only the Devil and all his evil on the cross, not any of His living humans. John 12:31-32; John 12:47; I John 3:8 (KJB). Jesus did this to save all of His living humans from eternal death, some by His grace and all others in the end of the world. John 5:24; John 5:28-29; Revelation 5:11-14; I Corinthians 15:22; Revelation 21:1-5 (KJB).

Commentary on Selected Psalms
Psalm 144:3-8 (KJB)
God knows humans as the beings He creates in His image. God knows the good natures of humans. Genesis 1:27; Genesis 1:31 (KJB). God knows the creative nature of humans that is capable of doing good, and all humans do some good. Isaiah 26:12 (KJB).
But all humans are subject to vanity; that is, excessive pride and emptiness. Vanity is the spiritual death within every human that they inherited from Adam's disobedience and fall. Genesis 2:17; Romans 5:12-14 (KJB). Vanity causes humans to pass away, but it is only their "shadow" that passes away. Only their evil natures pass away. The good natures of humans can never pass away because God created it, and God can never lose anything He has ever created. Genesis 3:20; Luke 20:38; Ecclesiastes 3:14; Psalm 111:7-8; Psalm 36:6 (KJB).
The writers of the Bible sometimes wrote that humans can be totally evil and equal to nothing. But they meant by that that humans can allow their evil natures to so dominate their good natures that they lose all knowledge of God and become incapable of being able to return to faith in God and love for God. They appear to be totally evil. Romans 1:19-32; Romans 3:9-20 (KJB). But no human can ever become totally evil because if they did, then their good natures would be annulled, and they could only practice evil. Even the worst human who ever lived has done some good put into him by God to do. Isaiah 26:12 (KJB). God hates all evil. Proverbs 6:16 (KJB). Should any human become totally evil, God would lose their good nature that He created and loves to evil and spiritual death, and God can never lose anything He has ever created. Ecclesiastes 3:14; Psalm 111:7-8 (KJB). The Apostle Paul wrote that humans become evil because they lose their knowledge of God, but He also wrote that humans can recover their knowledge of God and their faith in Him. Romans 3:21-31 (KJB). Jesus suffered and died on the cross to purge the Devil and all of his evil works from the good lives of all humans that He creates and loves and to return them all, sooner or later, back to faith in Him and love for Him. The Almighty Love of God cannot fail to save all humans, some by His grace and all others with a lesser form of salvation. I Corinthians 13:8; John 12:31-32; John 12:47; John 5:24; John 5:28-29; Revelation 5:11-14; I John 3:8 (KJB).
King David then prophesied that a day will come when God will use His fiery wrath against evil to burn up His entire creation that has been infected with evil so that He can purge it all of "strange children;" that is, the Devil and all demons who are totally vain and false. God will then recreate His entire creation, including all of his recovered and recreated living humans, to be totally good and righteous. Psalm 144:3-8; II Peter 3:9-13; Romans 8:18-25; Colossians 1:12-14; Colossians 1:15-23; Psalm 75:3; Revelation 5:11-14; I Corinthians 15:22; I Corinthians 3:11-15; John 5:24; John 5:28-29; I John 3:8; Revelation 20:5; Revelation 21:1-5; Revelation 22:11-12 (KJB).

Commentary on Selected Psalms
Psalm 130:8 (KJB)
The Lord will redeem the entire nation of Israel; that is, every Jew who ever lived. Ezekiel 37:11-14 (KJB). God will save some Jews by His grace, and He will save the rest of the Jews when He resurrects them from their graves to live in the land that He gave to Abraham and all of his descendants. Romans 11:5; Romans 11:11 (KJB). Just as God extended His salvation by grace to the Gentiles, He will extend His lesser form of salvation to the entire human race confined to the regions of death. John 5:28-29 (KJB). But salvation by grace and salvation by resurrection back to life can only occur through repentance and faith. Habakkuk 2:4 (KJB). Christ will appear to all of His living humans confined to the regions of death in the end of the world, and He will cause them all to repent and believe in Him as the Lamb of God their Savior. Revelation 5:11-14 (KJB). Christ will remove their spiritual deaths from them, and He will restore them all to a recreated life on His new earth. Revelation 20:5; Revelation 21:1-5 (KJB). Christ will restore His resurrected Jews to the land that He gave them and the rest of His resurrected humans to wherever they desire to live on His new earth. II Peter 3:9-13 (KJB).
Psalm 138:8 (KJB)
Because God's mercy endures forever, He will "forsake not the works of thine own hands." God can never lose anything He has ever created, and His Love, grace, and mercy can never fail. Ecclesiastes 3:14; I Corinthians 13:8 (KJB). For this reason, God could never cast any living human that He creates and loves into an eternal lake of fire. They would be eternally dead, not alive, and they would be forsaken of God's mercy. Revelation 21:8 (KJB). The second death follows the spiritual death inside of every human. God casts only the dead natures of His living humans into the eternal lake of fire after He has separated them from their living natures. Revelation 20:11-15; Revelation 20:5 (KJB). Life cannot be conflated with death. These are exact opposites. Revelation 20:15 clearly teaches that God will save His living humans, and He will cast only separated, dead humans into the lake of fire.
Christ will cause all of His living humans confined to the regions of death to repent and return to faith in Him as the Lamb of God their Savior so that He can resurrect them all back to righteous and recreated lives on His recreated earth. Revelation 5:11-14; II Peter 3:9-13; Revelation 21:1-5 (KJB). Since Christ considers them all to be alive, then they can never become dead. Luke 20:38 (KJB). God has promised, "Behold, I make all things new." Revelation 21:5 (KJB). Since God created "all things," then this promise provides ineluctable proof that God must resurrect every living human from the regions of death and recreate them all to a righteous life on His recreated earth. Revelation 4:11; II Peter 3:9-13 (KJB). God could certainly derive no pleasure from His living humans being forever confined to a burning Hell.

Commentary on Selected Psalms
Psalm 121:1-8 (KJB)
This Psalm happens to be about how God will save the entire nation of Israel. The Lord will keep Israel, protect Israel, and preserve Israel forever. This Psalm agrees with the prophecy of Ezekiel that God will use His fiery wrath against evil to melt down the entire "house of Israel" to separate its silver from its dross. Exekiel 22:17-22 (KJB). The silver symbolizes the living image of God in every Jew that God created them to be. This Psalm also agrees with Ezekiel's prophecy that God will raise "the whole house of Israel" from their graves to live in the land that he had promised to give them. Ezekiel 37:11-14 (KJB). The Apostle Paul also prophesied that "all Israel shall be saved," but he could not have meant salvation by grace because he also wrote that only a remnant of the Jews would be saved by grace. Romans 11:26-27; Romans 11:4-5 (KJB).
But Jesus prophesied that God will extend His salvation in the general resurrection of all humans not saved by grace to the entire human race. John 5:28-29 (KJB). Jesus could not have meant the Rapture of the Church because those saints will be only some humans in their graves. Jesus also could not have meant that this salvation in the general resurrection would be by God's grace because grace happens to be given by God solely apart from any good works, but Jesus said that these humans would be raised back to life because of their good works. Jesus clearly taught that salvation by grace happens immediately after a person alive in the flesh believes that God has the power to save them from sin and eternal death. John 5:24 (KJB). This immediate salvation can only be a free gift. Joel agrees with Jesus that a time will come when God will "pour out my Spirit upon all flesh." Joel 2:28-29 (KJB).
All through the Bible, it teaches that God has and will save millions by His grace and provide them with a home in Heaven, but the Bible also teaches that God will provide a lesser form of salvation for His good image that He puts into all humans that causes them all to do some good works, and God can never lose anything He has ever created. Genesis 1:27; Ecclesiastes 3:14; John 5:28-29; Revelation 21:5; John 10:34-36; Psalm 36:6 (KJB). If God ever loses His image in even one human to an eternal lake of fire, then He will not have preserved that living human. Luke 20:38 (KJB). That human would be eternally dead, but every living human is alive to God forever. God will cast only dead humans, whom He has separated from His living humans, into an eternal lake of fire. Revelation 20:11-15 (KJB).
