Revelation 19:3 And again they said, "Alleluia." And her smoke rose up for ever and ever.
Those judged to die the second death at Judgment will be blotted out for ever and ever. Their souls will cease to exist and they will be no more. Judgment Day
Revelation 20:15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.
Revelation 21:8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone; which is the second death."
The "lake of fire" is not a lake of hell burning for all eternity where those souls judged to it will scream in misery for ever, but is the "second death" where they will be blotted out and no longer remembered.
There is a difference between the gulfs in heaven now prior to Judgment Day and the "blotting out" on Judgment Day. Luke 16 speaks to the divided gulfs in heaven at this time in the story of Lazarus and the rich man. The division is not God's final Judgment, but it is God's dividing certain sinners away from Him until the Millennium and Judgment Day. God doesn't send someone to hell before they are judged, but that in and of itself is a hell that the rich man wanted to warn his brothers against. The final hell (as it were) of Judgment day is the smoke from the extinguishing of those judged to die the 2nd death being blotted out forever. Something we should all work against.
Genesis 19:24-25; 28 Then the Lord rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the Lord out of heaven; And He overthrew those cities, and all the plain, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew upon the ground.
And he [Abraham] looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward all the land of the plain, and beheld, and, lo, the smoke of the country went up as the smoke of a furnace.
The Bible is full of parallels for our knowledge and prove witness for things to come. The "smoke" of Sodom and Gomorrah is the Hebrew word qiytor (#7008) and means vapour. The smoke from the second death is their blotting out, their vaporization, their extinguishment. They will be forever no more.
Revelation 14:11 And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name."
