Lake of THE fire

[Cardinal]

 :cloud9: Gold is representative of the nature of God in manifestation, silver speaks of redemption. Iron speaks of judgment (not a coincidence human blood is red because of iron content). "Stripes" test what you're made out of, fire/smelting removes dross (iron) from gold and silver. Blessings....

but if UR is true then torture/pain will take place as the person is purged of their sins,

But is the word torture in the Bible? (in connection to God'd judgement)

I'm not confused. And I think it's not paying a price. Jesus already payed in full.

Tormented
928 basani,zw basanizo {bas-an-id'-zo}
Meaning: 
to test (metals) by the touchstone, which is a black siliceous stone used to test the purity of gold or silver by the color of the streak produced on it by rubbing it with either metal

Now i'm confused, I thought that UR was that if a person did not receive Jesus as saviour then they would be thrown into the lake of fire(UR =a spiritual fire) and this fire would purge them and it would hurt them.

I agree with that. But I question 'hurt'.
Hard for me to explain how I feel about this. Pain sounds like vengence. But imo is learning things. It's not passively get beating things out of you. Very unplesant as Jesus said. But pain?
