it is everlasting destruction.—Compare Re 17:16; 18:8, 15-17, 19.
Therefore, those who are ‘tormented forever’ (from Gr., ba‧sa‧ni′zo) in the lake of fire undergo “second death” from which there is no resurrection. The related Greek word ba‧sa‧ni‧stes′ 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.

It represents God's final judgement for the unforgiven, a place so horrible that only a fool would risk going there. Imagine a place that for all eternity you will be subjected to extreme pain, grief and hopelessness. These will befall all those outside of God's love. For the bible says that God hates sin and only through Him sins are forgiven.
