If any was not found written in the book of life (ei tiv oux eureqh en th biblw thv zwhv). Condition of first class with ei and the first aorist passive indicative of euriskw. In this short sentence the doom is told of all who are out of Christ, for they too follow the devil and the two beasts into the lake of fire (the counterpart of the Gehenna of fire, Matthew 5:22). There is no room here for soul sleeping, for an intermediate state, for a second chance, or for annihilation of the wicked. In Daniel 12:2 there is a resurrection to death as well as to life and so in John 5:29; Acts 24:15.
