Look at the Lake

"And I saw a great white throne, and Him that sat on it.... And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God, and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life.... And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire" (Revelation 20:11-15).

Peer through the lens of the Scripture to look
At the sinner's most dreadful mistake:
All those not found in the Lamb of God's Book,
Are cast in that horrible lake.

Yes, look at that lake and then reassess
The things that you now so desire.
Who can imagine the awful distress
Of those who are cast in that fire?

Judgment is not very far down the path;
Let this change our thoughts and behavior
To labor in earnest, in view of God's wrath,
To plead with those needing the Savior.
