I’m giving you a second chance—but from now on, when the big band strikes up you must go to your knees and worship the statue I have made. If you don’t worship it, you will be pitched into a roaring furnace, no questions asked. Who is the god who can rescue you from my power?”
Daniel 3:16 - Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego answered King Nebuchadnezzar, “Your threat means nothing to us.

The dead were judged by what was written in the books, by the way they had lived. Sea released its dead, Death and Hell turned in their dead.

Anyone whose name was not found inscribed in the Book of Life was hurled into Lake Fire.

But what will come of the tantrums? The victims will be released before you know it. They’re not going to die. They’re not even going to go hungry. For I am God, your very own God, who stirs up the sea and whips up the waves, named God-of-the-Angel-Armies. I teach you how to talk, word by word, and personally watch over you, Even while I’m unfurling the skies, setting earth on solid foundations, and greeting Zion: ‘Welcome, my people!’”
