Point of correction: Hell is not physical torment.

When you die your celestial body is put up for judgement not the terrestrial body.

The spirit is what faces judgement not the body. Celestial body is not physical.

Point of correction:
The spirit is not what faces judgment but the soul.

Spirit belongs to God, body belongs to earth (soil) and the soul is what is on the line

First death is the death of this our physical body.

Second death is the death of the soul 'in hell' if not righteous.

Does "Hell" really exist? Is there a "Hell" in the Bible? Hell no!
There is no "Hell" in the Bible!



What is "hell" like, really? Is it located here on earth, or in
some other dimension? Is it real, or a myth? Can the Bible lead
us to the truth?

Where is "hell" first mentioned in the Bible, and
why is it so hard to find in the more accurate modern
translations? Why was the punishment of "hell" never
mentioned to the original sinners―Adam, Eve and Cain―nor to
unbelievers like the Pharaoh who defied God repeatedly?

Are
there Bible verses that clearly describe "hell," explaining its
origins and purpose? Hell no! If you study "hell" in the Bible,
you're in for a long, fruitless search for facts, definitions and
explanations. Why? Because the Hebrew prophets never
mentioned a place where human beings writhe in eternal
torment, gnashing their teeth forever.

Nor did the prophets ever

mention even the possibility of suffering after death. Isn't that
extremely odd, if there really is a hell and God wanted us to
know how to avoid it? The Hebrew Bible (our Old Testament)
mentions a place called Sheol, but as I will demonstrate below
—quoting book, chapter and verse—the Hebrew word Sheol
clearly means "the grave" or "the abode of all the dead, good
and bad.


" The same is true in the New Testament, where the
Greek word Hades also clearly means "the grave" or "the
abode of all the dead." Nor does Gehenna mean "hell," as I
explain below. So "hell" is not a biblical teaching at all, but a
harrowing mistranslation used by charlatans to brainwash
believers into forking over their hard-earned money while
obeying commandments they never bothered to observe
themselves.

(It seems hell hath no fury like a hypocritical
moralist out to control other people's behavior.) Unfortunately,
the innocents who suffer most from this hellish dogma are
highly impressionable children who trust their parents, pastors,
youth directors and Sunday School teachers not to mislead
them ...
belive or not, if there is heven, then there is hell or somtin worst then hell.

Even though the idea of eternal damnation by a Merciful God kinda sounds contradictory to me..

But wait .. What do I know sef cheesy

Did God tell u that he is only a loving and merciful God or u just chose to view him from that angle?
God said he is also God of vengeance, a jealous God, a consuming fire etc. Pls have a balanced view of God. Thanks.

We have first judgment and second judgment as well as first death ans second death Rev. 20:14-15.

When person dies, first judgment takes place immediately to determind weda he go to hell or heaven.

Hell is the place where convicts are kept for the last day (The second judgment) general judgment, seperating the sheep and the lamb.

Meaning First judgement is individual and Second judgment is general.

Hell is the waiting place, next to Lake of fire (the second death)

Spirit is of God (the breath) Body is of the earth (sand) Soul is the mediator (the one to be judged).

Spirits are always come back as recarnate

Useless bigot,Islam that teaches you to mate with little girls and behead women suspected of dressing indecently and raped. Islam that encourages you to see people of other religions as infidels. I rather stay non religious that join this religion. Thanks.

iliyande:
God has given us enough education about the torment that is in hell, the people who go there and how we can avoid the pits of it. While, as Christians, we don't really focus on hell as much because we know that when we abide in Jesus it is not part of our destiny anymore, it is good to have a healthy view of hell for two reasons: to know what we must save our non-believing loved ones from and to further appreciate God's love and grace by knowing what Christ has saved us from.

What does the Bible tell us about hell?

Hell is not God's choice


Galatians 6:8 tells us "For the one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption, but the one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life." God does not willingly throw people into hell just because He wants to, but because it is the choice of those who are destined to be there.

God has made it clear that we can either choose to live with Him now and forever, or be doomed to be separated from Him forever. Sadly, many people still choose to live lives separate from God, and there's no one else responsible for that choice except themselves.

Hell goes on forever

Hell will not last a thousand years or a million years. It will be for all eternity. It's daunting to know that we only have a hundred years or less to make a decision that will affect our eternity, but God makes it simple: We are only to believe in Him, period. 2 Thessalonians 1:9 says, "They will suffer the punishment of eternal destruction, away from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of his might."

Hell is not just physical torment, but spiritual torment

Although the Bible paints a picture of hell by narrating physical torment, the punishment of hell is far more painful than that. Matthew 10:28 tells us, "And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather fear him who can destroy both soul and body in hell."

Hell is where God's grace is absent

The greatest punishment is not the presence of pain and suffering, but the absence of God's love and mercy. Today, everyone still has a taste of that love and grace in one way or another, but those who will fall into eternal fire will no longer experience that love and grace one day.

John 3:36 says, "Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him."

Interpretation of what the Bible asserted about hell isn't remotely the problem but try and come up with models to demonstrate the fact of it. Demonstration of any postulation is potentially the most important part of knowing what's factual and that which isn't.

Instead waisting your time complicating the more what hell is all about by pointing to the same bible verses; show us the method, anybody outside bible peer can lay hand on as the justification for believing hell is real.
