- Abstract: Since the announcement of the punishment in the Apocalypse of John, the sentence of the godless in the lake of fire has occupied a central role in early Christian apocalypses. The punishment for the wicked in the lake of fire has acted as a deterrent and paints a terrible portrait that awaits the evil and the unbelievers. During the development of the eschatological motif, apostates and unfaithful Christians have also been included in the fiery punishments. What is the function and purpose of the early Christian apocalypses? This question will be examined in the second-century Apocalypse of Peter. As a result, this paper argues that the Apocalypse of Peter is a work intended to convey comfort to the believers in Christ who were threatened and suffered persecution.
