The Bible does not teach eternal torment it is a catholic doctrine which they got from paganism. There is a judgment but, not eternal torment.
Revelation 14
A third angel followed them and said in a loud voice: “If anyone worships the beast and his image and receives his mark on the forehead or on the hand, 10 he, too, will drink of the wine of God’s fury, which has been poured full strength into the cup of his wrath. He will be tormented with burning sulfur in the presence of the holy angels and of the Lamb. 11 And the smoke of their torment rises for ever and ever. There is no rest day or night for those who worship the beast and his image, or for anyone who receives the mark of his name.” 12 This calls for patient endurance on the part of the saints who obey God’s commandments and remain faithful to Jesus.
And the devil, who deceived them, was thrown into the lake of burning sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet had been thrown. They will be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
Revelation
The Dead Are Judged AND forever tormented after theit judgment
11 Then I saw a great white throne and him who was seated on it. Earth and sky fled from his presence, and there was no place for them. 12 And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and books were opened. Another book was opened, which is the book of life. The dead were judged according to what they had done as recorded in the books. 13 The sea gave up the dead that were in it, and death and Hades gave up the dead that were in them, and each person was judged according to what he had done. 14 Then death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. The lake of fire is the second death. 15 If anyone’s name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire.
”Cast ,” or, ”thrown” into the ”lake of fire,” The false prophets, Beast, Devil are (v.10).
”Cast” (or thrown) into The ”lake of fire,” those not found written in the Book Of Life are (v.15)
What does NOT expressly speak of eternal torment not real for those not written in Book of Life?
And, Laod, same words used in verse 10 and 14: forever and ever .
