REVELATION 20:7-10; 11-15

REVELATION 20:7-10
In verse 8 those mentioned here refer to other people who during the Millennial Reign defected in their hearts from the Messiah. In any case, this section shows something of the deep, complex nature of evil. The source of rebellion against God does not lie in humanity's environment or fundamentally with the devil but springs up from deep within the human heart. The return of Satan will demonstrate this in a most dramatic manner once for all.
REVELATION 20:11-15
It is sobering to ponder that In God's sight nothing is forgotten; all will give an account of their actions (Verse 13). Judgment always proceeds on the basis of works (Matthew 25:41-46; Romans 2:6; 2 Corinthians 5:10; Hebrews 4:12-13).
