“And the smoke of their torment
ascends forever and ever; and they have no rest day or night, who worship the
beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name.”

Those
who worship the Antichrist and receive his mark will endure this wrath
and indignation for eternity in hell.
(DG)

If
the only consequences for sin are in this life, or if the only penalty for sin
is temporary, then clever sinners have won out over God. Walvoord says of the
phrase forever and ever:
“Literally ‘into the ages of ages,’ the strongest expression of eternity of
which the Greek is capable.” (DG)
Isaiah 34:10 It shall not be quenched night or day; its
smoke shall ascend forever. From
generation to generation it shall lie waste; no one shall pass through it
forever and ever.
Isaiah 66:24 And they shall go forth and look upon the
corpses of the men who have transgressed against Me. For their worm does not die, and their fire
is not quenched. They shall be an
abhorrence to all flesh.
