Doug...scripture please that any of the non elect will be saved
The following sequence takes place after the 1000 year millenial kingdom. The elect have already gained their salvation...either at the rapture or at Christs second coming depending on your belief:
Rev 20:11 And I saw a great white throne, and Him sitting on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away. And a place was not found for them.
Rev 20:12 And I saw the dead, the small and the great, stand before God. And 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.
Note: The dead great and small can't be the elect. They have already been raptured, translated, become Christ's at the beginning of the 1000 years. The elect are the dead in Christ and those who are alive at Christs coming.
Also interesting is they are judged on what is written in the "books", not just what is in the Book of Life. The books is greek "biblion". What other books that set God's standards are there but the books of the bible?
Rev 20:13 And the sea gave up the dead in it. And death and hell delivered up the dead in them. And each one of them was judged according to their works.
The dead are being judged. Again, can't be the elect because they don't need to be judged. They are the elect, those elected to be kings and priests in the millenial kingdom.
Rev 20:14 And death and hell were cast into the Lake of Fire. This is the second death.
Rev 20:15 And if anyone was not found having been written in the Book of Life, he was cast into the Lake of Fire.
People are being judged. If the fate of all of them is to be thrown into the lake of fire, then there's no reason for a "judgement". Remember, they are judged on the "books", which can only be the books of scripture.
Act 24:15 And I have hope toward God, which they themselves also allow, that there shall be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and unjust.
Here Paul differentiates between the elect and the just. Paul didn't say here that the "elect" are resurrected, but the "just".
I would be interested to know how Calvinists interpet this passage.
