I find your post to be very interesting, and it reflects what I have heard some say...that those who are redeemed are the ones who gain an everlasting life, in Heaven...the unredeemed, are simply blotted out....that the unredeemed do not spend an eternity in endless torment, but rather, much like humans know well enough to put down a mad dog, God in His mercy, punishes the unredeemed, by putting them down, permanently....
Would that someone possibly be the apostle Peter who tells us this? See II Peter Chapter three - in full. Especially verses 7, 11-13.
