This doesn't seem to fit the eternally lost timeline, this is after the Great White Throne judgment, after the coming of the New Jerusalem. Why are those dogs not in the pit or the lake?
These are some of the things in scripture that caused me to study and has led to my current position.

This verse is not future tense. It's present tense. The Spirit and the Bride is saying "come" right now!
Rev 22:17 The Spirit and the Bride say, "Come." And let the one who hears say, "Come." And let the one who is thirsty come; let the one who desires take the water of life without price
