The lake of fire is also a place of everlasting heat, searing pain, and constant torment for non-Christians. Notice that Revelation 20:14-15 says that death and Hades are thrown into the lake of fire. Physical death will not occur. Non-Christians or non-believers, will exist in the lake of fire forever and never die.
Gehenna (Greek geʹen·na) is mentioned 12 times in the Bible. Like the lake of fire, it is a symbol of eternal destruction.

The testimony of Scripture is always that they will suffer in immortal bodies—eternal bodies. The pain is described as being so bad, that people will gnash their teeth (Matthew 8:12; 13:42; Luke 13:28). The lake of fire will be a dark place without light (Matthew 8:12; 22:13; Luke 13:28). It will be like living in a furnace (Matthew 13:42, 50).
In Revelation 21:8 we are told that the murderers, immoral persons, sorcerers, idolaters and liars would be living in the Lake of Fire, the second death.

Then Revelation 20:11 tells us that all unbelievers of all ages will stand before the Great White Throne Judgment and be judged, and all the unbelievers will be sent to the lake of fire as a result of the judgment (Revelation 20:11-15).
