Has not this famous prayer
Christians
been taught to in earnestness pray
in matters of importance,
not to just daily say?
"Our Father in the heavens,
let your name be sanctified.
Let your Kingdom come.
Let your will take place,
as in heaven,
also on earth.” Matt. 6:9, 10
Jehovah’s name embracing
a full scope of His excellence,
majesty,
holiness.
A name of most priceless worth.
All principles and laws
permeating from him holy, truly.
However, a slandering Satan caused mankind
from this pure righteousness
to temporarily, yet wickedly stray.
But,
Jesus loved his Father's name.
Spreading it to all hearing
he did it lovingly relay.
"I have made your name known to them and will make it known". John 17:26
His perfect life course on earth
proved beyond speculation, doubt
reasonable and righteous
Jehovah to set standards
for his intelligent creatures
universally spread about.
Even to the point of his once faithful brother, Satan
subjecting him to an agonizing death
Jesus remained completely loyal to his heavenly Father.
Causing great happiness in heaven!
All faithful angels in joyfulness to shout.
Since proven
that a perfect human could maintain perfectobedience to God’s righteous standards.
Not everyone considering complete obedience
a nuisance; an irritating bother.
Christ also taught us
for God's Kingdom to eternally stay
composed of 144, 000 co-rulers--
his spiritual brothers taken from the earth
who'll with Christ eradicate wickedness.
Soon, to happen without further delay:
"Happy and holy
is anyone having part
in the first resurrection;
over these the second death* has no authority,
but they will be priests of God and of the Christ,
and they will rule as kings with him for the 1, 000 years." Rev. 20:5.
"And they sing a new song, saying:
“You are worthy to take the scroll and open its seals, for you were slaughtered and with your blood you bought people for God out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation,
and you made them to be a kingdom and priests to our God,
and they are to rule as kings
over the earth.” Rev. 20:9, 10.
All fears of death and dying
finally, to be completely allayed
because of God's Love
and His Kingdom's birth.
Yes, God's will on earth
possible a selfless ransom
in love of humankind made.
God’s purpose
to fill the earth with Adam's and Eve's offspring
Christ's death,
with perfect blood
was paid.
Laid: An opportunity,
to all who exercise faith
even those once dead
but then to be raised:
"And I have hope toward God, which hope these men also look forward to, that there is going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous." Acts. 24:15.
To reach perfection.
To live forever.
To Eternally Praise
Jah Jehovah's
Most Worthy Name.
This is the reason
Christ, from heaven
to this earth came.
You Gave Your Only-Begotten Son

LAKE OF FIRE
This expression occurs only in the book of Revelation and is clearly symbolic. The Bible gives its own explanation and definition of the symbol by stating: “This means the second death, the lake of fire.”—Re 20:14; 21:8.
The symbolic quality of the lake of fire is further evident from the context of references to it in the book of Revelation. Death is said to be hurled into this lake of fire. (Re 19:20; 20:14) Death obviously cannot be literally burned. Moreover, the Devil, an invisible spirit creature, is thrown into the lake. Being spirit, he cannot be hurt by literal fire.—Re 20:10; compare Ex 3:2 and Jg 13:20.
Since the lake of fire represents “the second death” and since Revelation 20:14 says that both “death and Hades” are to be cast into it, it is evident that the lake cannot represent the death man has inherited from Adam (Ro 5:12), nor does it refer to Hades (Sheol). It must, therefore, be symbolic of another kind of death, one that is without reversal, for the record nowhere speaks of the “lake” as giving up those in it, as do Adamic death and Hades (Sheol). (Re 20:13) Thus, those not found written in “the book of life,” unrepentant opposers of God’s sovereignty, are hurled into the lake of fire, meaning eternal destruction, or the second death.—Re 20:15.
While the foregoing texts make evident the symbolic quality of the lake of fire, it has been used by some persons to support belief in a literal place of fire and torment. Revelation 20:10 has been appealed to, because it speaks of the Devil, the wild beast, and the false prophet as being “tormented day and night forever and ever” in the lake of fire. However, this cannot refer to actual conscious torment. Those thrown into the lake of fire undergo “the second death.” (Re 20:14) In death there is no consciousness and, hence, no feeling of pain or suffering.—Ec 9:5.
In the Scriptures fiery torment is associated with destruction and death. For example, in the Greek Septuagint translation of the Hebrew Scriptures the word for torment (baʹsa·nos) is several times used with reference to punishment by death. (Eze 3:20; 32:24, 30) Similarly, concerning Babylon the Great, the book of Revelation says, “the kings of the earth . . . will weep and beat themselves in grief over her, when they look at the smoke from the burning of her, while they stand at a distance because of their fear of her torment [Gr., ba·sa·ni·smouʹ].” (Re 18:9, 10) As to the meaning of the torment, an angel later explains: “Thus with a swift pitch will Babylon the great city be hurled down, and she will never be found again.” (Re 18:21) So, fiery torment here is parallel with destruction, and in the case of Babylon the Great, it is everlasting destruction.—Compare Re 17:16; 18:8, 15-17, 19.
Therefore, those who are ‘tormented forever’ (from Gr., ba·sa·niʹzo) in the lake of fire undergo “second death” from which there is no resurrection. The related Greek word ba·sa·ni·stesʹ is translated ‘jailer’ in Matthew 18:34. (RS, NW, ED; compare vs 30.) Thus those hurled into the lake of fire will be held under restraint, or “jailed,” in death throughout eternity.—See GEHENNA; TORMENT.
