Where do lost people go today when they die?
Lost people today go to hell, which is distinct from the lake of fire. Hell is where lost people go now; the lake of fire is a separate, future destination. The two men are cast alive into the lake of fire, not hell, because hell is where lost people go today.
Les explains that there is a difference between hell and the lake of fire, and they are not one and the same. Many people think they are the same, but they are not. Hell will one day go into the lake of fire. The two men in view are cast alive into the lake of fire, not hell, because hell is where lost people go today. At this point in time, no one is in the lake of fire. So lost people today go to hell, while the lake of fire is a separate, future destination.
