The Book of Jude quotes the Book of Enoch (the first reference to the Lake of Fire). Despite the Book of Enoch being decanonized, Jude still remains, and Revelation picked up the whole “Lake of Fire” thing.

Calvin tried to account for the fact that the majority of humanity has no chance of accepting the Gospel message
>Dude’s with Downs Syndrome
>Toddlers that fall out windows
>The 80% of the human race that died prior to 33 AD
>The 30%+ of the population that never saw a Bible until 1492 or later
>The remote parts of the world that never saw a Bible until the internet age
>The parts of the world that have no internet even today and have never seen a Bible
Most denominations just handwave it away. Calvin recognized that he, being born in a majority Christian community with a fully-functioning adult brain, had a distinct advantage towards receiving the Gospel compared to most of humanity.
