You are making your case with revelation, a vision rife with metaphor. Revelation is not a source of doctrine, but it can clarify existing doctrine.
If I have to keep dipping into revelation to support my doctrine, I need to re-examine my doctrine, whatever doctrine it may be. This is especially true if my interpretation of Revelation contradicts the rest of scripture.
Revelation is not ALL metaphor. There is quite a bit of “doctrine” that it teaches.
Let me ask you, if you deny that eternal torment in hell is a reality for the lost, then how are they present at the Great White Throne Judgment? This is when ALL the lost are judged for what they did or didn’t do when they were here on earth. Some of these souls have been LONG dead and whatever physical body they had is dust scattered in the wind, yet they face their judge and experience torment. With what kind of form do they do this?
