I think greater violence against them is actually Godly. Remember God has demonstrated absolute fury and Jesus most think as is portrayed as being soft and meek whereas he demonstrated aggression and fury throwing tables and merchants out of the temple for violating God’s laws
Remember passover? "The aroma of burning flesh pleases Yahweh (God)." The Pharoah wouldn't listen to Moses, so God gave him multiple warnings, then killed every first-born child in Egypt (save for those who marked their doors with sheep blood).
THAT is what God does to the unholy. He doesn't fuck around. If you torment his creations, you're expendable. The longer you get away with it, the more severe your punishment. I can only relish in imagining what God has in store for the Cabal...
Don't forget the Flood. Imagine what it would be like if it started raining (something never done before) and it kept raining and raining and raining to the point where everywhere is flooded. You move up to the second story / roof.. it keeps going.. Some poor souls grabbed onto a barrel or something that floats to stay above the water as everyone is screaming bloody murder, or drowning. You are "lucky" to have found that barrel and fought off others who tried to cling to you/it. But it's still raining, and now there are waves.. you're floating on an ocean.. you cling to life for a day.. two.. but the rain keeps coming. No food, no sleep.. and one rogue wave comes and off you go, and down into the depths.. exhausted, and having no idea how to swim.. you die. Then you get to Hell...

God has shown wrath COUNTLESS times.

Amen!

To add to this, the rainbow isn’t some sweet symbol. It’s the symbol of destruction by water. It’ll be fire next time.
Yep, it's an interesting symbol to have taken up.
I believe God would've given those poor souls another chance after Jesus' sacrifice. It only seems just.
Also, wouldn't they have been stuck in Purgatory? Heaven was sealed off, but Hell is reserved for truly wicked individuals.
It could be they were truly lost. I imagine we'll find out at some point. But I do agree that God is just, most certainly.
There are varying views on this aspect of things, they may have a second chance, but I wouldn't bet on it for us.
I think the worst for them will be when they actually realize and feel the guilt and torment of their own sins... forever
Imagine if their punishment is the restoration of their souls. They wouldn't be able to stand themselves.
Romans 12:19
Do not take revenge, my dear friends, but leave room for God's wrath, for it is written: "It is mine to avenge; I will repay," says the Lord.
