Commentary on Selected Verses in Isaiah

                                Isaiah 22:12-14 (KJB)

God calls on humans to repent and believe in His forgiveness while they are still alive in the flesh. But many humans do not believe in God or in life after death. They adopt the hedonistic philosophy that they should enjoy all of the pleasures of life because when they die, that will just be the end of them entirely.

God revealed to Isaiah how He will deal with such people. God told Isaiah that He will purge their iniquity after they die. This revelation to Isaiah can only be a prophecy that Christ will appear to all humans confined to the regions of death, and He will cause them all to repent and believe in Him as the Lamb of God their Savior. Christ will do that so that He can save all of His living humans that He creates and loves from eternal death, and He will resurrect them all and recreate them with a new life on His recreated earth. Revelation 5:11-14; II Peter 3:9-13; Revelation 20:5; Revelation 21:1-5 (KJB).

Nowhere does the scriptures teach that God's Will can be impeded by the physical deaths of humans. Since God is "not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance," and no thing can ever impede God's Will, then God must certainly save all of His living humans whom He loves from eternal death. II Peter 3:9 (KJB). God's Love can never fail. I Corinthians 13:8 (KJB). Since God made Eve "the mother of all living," and since God is not the God of the dead, but of the living, then God can certainly never lose a single, living human to an eternal death in a lake of fire. Genesis 3:20; Luke 20:38 (KJB). God can never lose anything He has ever created. Ecclesiastes 3:14 (KJB). Christ exists as the Savior of all men. Christ can  exist as the Savior of all men only if He saves all men. I Timothy 4:10 (KJB).

Jesus Himself taught that He can raise back to life those who believe in Him after they are dead. John 11:25 (KJB). Then Jesus proved that when He raised Lazarus from the dead. Lazarus' resurrection has a double meaning. Christ will resurrect all of His living humans saved by His grace in the Rapture of the Church. John 14:1-6 (KJB). But Christ will also cause all of His living humans confined to the regions of death because they died in their sins to repent and return to the faith that He put into them when He created them. Genesis 1:27; Revelation 5:11-14 (KJB). Christ will resurrect all of His repentant, living humans to a righteous, recreated life on His recreated earth, and He will cast their separated, dead natures into the eternal lake of fire. Revelation 20:5; Revelation 20:11-15; Revelation 21:1-5; Revelation 22:11-12 (KJB).
