The Laundry Lists for the Second Death

Revelation 21:8 is what might be called a "laundry list" of descriptions of people who will experience the second death. There are other such lists in 1 Corinthians 6:9-10, Ephesians 5:5, and Galatians 5:19-21. The prophets John and Paul are basically telling us the same thing: those who practice sin will not inherit God's Kingdom.  There are also "laundry lists" for those who will *not* experience the second death, like 1 Corinthians 6:11, Galatians 5:22-24, and Matthew 5:3-12.  The difference between these two groups? One knows Jesus, and has stopped sinning, and the other, according to 1 John 2:3-6, continues in sin and therefore does not know Jesus.  In this study, we look at how to really know Jesus, remain in His word, and be free indeed from sin!
