Ecclesiastes 3:14 (KJB)
This verse can only mean that everything that God creates will last forever. Whatever God creates cannot change except in good ways. God's Word is in everything He creates and everything He says. It is eternal and infinite. God uses His infinite set of creative ideas to form systems that can change over time but only in good ways. But God's eternal set of creative ideas never changes.
But when a creation of God turns His good ideas into systems of lies, then that can only be evil. For example, when Lucifer rebelled against God, God used His fiery wrath to dissolve Lucifer's system in order to recover every good and creative idea that Lucifer had turned into systems of lies, and God exiled his totally evil and empty negative consciousness to earth as a demon called Satan. Ezekiel 28:13-19 (KJB). According to Ezekiel 28:19, Satan does not even exist, at least not in any positive and creative sense. God is Omniscient. God possesses an infinite knowledge of all good and creative ideas that He can form into good and creative systems, but God can know nothing about non-existence because there happens to be nothing to know except that in some mysterious way it can form negative consciousnesses which are totally evil and destructive. II Thessalonians 2:7 (KJB). Satan became that kind of negative consciousness.
When Lucifer rebelled, God learned how to use the idea of destruction in creative ways. God's dissolution of Lucifer's system happened to be a creative system in itself because it preserved a set of God's good ideas from being annihilated. Satan's goal is to utterly destroy; that is, annul a part of God's creation to prove that God's Love cannot be Almighty. Satan knew he had his chance when he saw that God had created Adam and Eve with free will. Satan believed that if he could get Adam and Eve to choose to become sinful and evil, then he would be able to turn them, or at least one of their descendants, into a totally evil and demonic being. In order to accomplish his goal, Satan gained the ability to inject spiritual death, which is totally empty and evil, into every living human who sins. Satan seeks to use spiritual death to utterly destroy a part of God's creation and thereby prove that God's Love is not Almighty. Genesis 3:15 (KJB).
But God created Adam and Eve, and all of their descendants, with free will to test His Love to the utmost to prove that His Love for His creation can never fail. I Corinthians 13:8 (KJB). That which God had done to Lucifer, He intends to do for His entire creation. God allowed Satan to do his worst to humanity to prove that even the most horrible evils can never destroy God's Love. Spiritual death would cause humans to sin and commit cruel acts of evil, but God knew that He held the Power and the Almighty Intellect needed to devise a plan to cause all humans to eventually return of their own free will to their faith in Him and love for Him that He had created them to be. Sin and evil that causes spiritual death, and spiritual death that causes sin and evil holds the potential power to utterly destroy the good souls and spirits that God creates humans to be. Romans 5:12; Romans 6:23; Romans 7:24 (KJB). But God came to earth in human form and led a sinless life so that He could suffer all of the sins, evil, and spiritual deaths of all humans in their place on a cruel cross, and He rose from the dead victorious over all sin, evil, spiritual death and the Devil. John 12:31-32; Hebrews 2:9-18; I John 3:8; Revelation 1:17-18 (KJB).
For these reasons, God could never cast His living humans that He created to be good into an eternal lake of fire because they would become totally empty and evil which would mean that God would lose a part of His creation that He loves. God can never lose anything that He creates, and His Love can never fail. Ecclesiastes 3:14; I Corinthians 13:8 (KJB). I Corinthians 13:8 can only mean that God's Love can never fail, not human love that can fail. In addition, God could never love His living humans submerged into a lake of fire because when they became totally evil He would have to hate them. The plain truth of God's Word is that God casts only spiritually dead humans into an eternal lake of fire as Revelation 20:11-15 relates. Christ judged only the Devil and all of his evil works on the cross, not any of His living humans that He creates and loves. John 12:31-32; John 12:47-48; John 6:11; I John 3:8 (KJB). Christ has reserved His judgment of humans until "the last day." God has devised a plan that no matter how much sin and evil humans can commit, God will recover and recreate all of His living humans in the end of the world. Revelation 21:1-5 (KJB). How can anyone get around God's promise, "Behold, I make all things new?" Colossians 1:15-23 (KJB). God has devised a plan to return all of His living humans to faith in Him as their Savior. God has devised a plan to save all of His good and living humans from all sin, evil, and eternal death of their own free will, some by His grace while they are still alive in the flesh, and all the others confined to the regions of death when Christ appears to them 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. John 5:24; Revelation 5:11-14; Genesis 3:20; Luke 20:38; I Timothy 4:10; II Timothy 1:10; John 5:28-29; John 11:25-26 (KJB).
