Is it true that a sinner will be burnt in Lake of fire forever?

[Mark51]

This is clearly symbolic. The Bible gives its own explanation and definition of the symbol by stating: “This means the second death, the lake of fire.”-Revelation 20:14; 21:8.

This condition is symbolic. It states that death and Hades (grave) is said to be hurled into this lake of fire. Death and the grave obviously cannot be literally burned.

Moreover, the Devil, an invisible spirit creature, is thrown into the lake. Being a spirit, he cannot be hurt by literal fire.-Revelation 20:10.

Since the lake of fire represents “the second death” it is evident that the lake cannot represent the death man has inherited from Adam (Romans 5:12), nor does it refer to Hades. It, therefore, is symbolic of another kind of death, one that is without reversal, for the record nowhere speaks of the “lake” as giving up those in it, as do Adamic death and Hades. (Revelation 20:13) Thus, those not found written in “the book of life,”-unrepentant opposers of God’s sovereignty-are hurled into the lake of fire, meaning eternal destruction, or the second death.-Revelation 20:15.

 

[Not David]

I believe God is a good God who loves mankind. I just ask him to have mercy on them.

 

[Shempster]

When someone who has not obeyed the Gospel of our LORD Jesus Christ they will be forever separated from God.

Actually, this notion is the new, kinder, gentler version of hell.
During the last 20 years or so, the message that hell is where Jesus will spin you over a spit of fire and douse you with hot sulfur has been traded for being eternally separated from God. It is a little more palatable. It is difficult to try and get people to join your religion when you tell them if they don't, the "loving" God we are sharing will become a harsh, vindictive character that will inflict unending pain and suffering upon them.
But, in Psalms 139:8, David says: 8If I go up to heaven, you are there. If I make my bed in hell, you are there. So I guess that theory is kind of out the window as well.

ust to give a little background, I'm an Indian

Are you from Nepal? My pastor just got back from a missions trip to there; and he said that he led someone to Christ. Chances seem small that it might be you; but where I live it is said that it is a small world! Few there be that find salvation (Matthew 7:13-14). Also, if you love your mother or father more than Christ, then you are not worthy of Him, according to scripture. I would tell them however that God is both just and merciful and whatever His judgment might be concerning your grandparents, it will be right. But that they (your parents) will be held accountable for what they know; and that that is they can only come to the Father through Christ (John 14:6). You can say to them that God gives people three lights: creation, conscience, and then Christ. If they obey the first, the second will be revealed. If they obey the second, then they will receive the third. There is a fourth revelation impaho, that of who the Father is; but that can take a lifetime of learning to actually discover: and Christ can also reveal the father to you in a moment of time; however be patient and let Him go by the means He has chosen: discovering Him in His word.
