I understand your position, but you’re essentially saying that God resurrects everybody just to turn around and immediately annihilate them:

Rev 20:12 And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.
Rev 20:13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.
Rev 20:14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
Rev 20:15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.

I disagree, for the reasons previously stated. Can you provide Biblical evidence there’s no life outside the gates? I haven’t seen such evidence. On the contrary, the clear inference is that laundry list of the damned will be there.

Romans 6:23

For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Ecclesiastes 9:5

For the living know that they will die; But the dead know nothing, And they have no more reward, For the memory of them is forgotten.

If the those outside the Gates are still living (even if in eternal torment) how can the bible say that even their memory is forgotten? Can God just turn Himself off to knowing the wicked still exist in some fashion?

How can death and hell be thrown in the Lake of Fire and as Revelation 21 tells us 'no more grief, distress, or cry' for the former things are passed away' if there are those outside the gates who are in eternal grief, distress and tears??
