Are your gods of men aware of all of this? Does this only apply to your their gullible followers? I ask because most of your gods-of-men don't seem to care much about this desire for heaven since they already built it for themselves here on earth through the sweat, time, and lives of their sheeples. 🤔

When I was young, I used to be very scared of hell especially when in church and the preacher narrated the horrors of hell, but now things have changed.

I don't know maybe because eyes has seen many things in three decades of my existence, really don't get scared of hell fire anymore.

Anytime someone or pastors talk about it, it sounds like every other takes to me, I think something is wrong with me, does anyone here now feel the same way?

Men of God in the house please how can I go back to my former self and start believing hell is real?
If you don’t want to land in hell , just do this:

Jesus replied, “You shall worship the LORD your God, and Him only you shall serve” (Matthew 4:10; quoted from Deuteronomy 6:13).

If you worship other god , you are on your own o .

You're asking how you can go back to bondage...
My dear, the reason why you're not afraid is because your spiritual mind has awakened, all those years of brainwashing and indoctrination has been nullified ..you've introspected and reflected within yourself and realised most of the things in the bible are fallacies (fiction), just keep searching and you'll understand that the ideas of heaven and hell are basically human constructs...

Before I leave let me leave you with this . ..- do not allow somebody (bible author(s) )who hasn't died before tell you where you'll go to when you die....

Ireee oooo

IF THE REASON YOU NO LONGER GET SCARED IS BECAUSE YOU HAVE received Christ, FALLEN IN love with the Holy spirit and now walk with Him everyday, I will relate but if you still live anyhow comfortably no longer scared of hell, then you have every reason to be scared about your life. Devil is truly at work in your life then. Hell was mentioned in the bible by Jesus more than heaven to show you the seriousness. I myself as a Christian do not allow familiarity with my God to make me disobey God who has the power to kill me and cast me into hell.

Welcome to the club.

There will come a time when the truth will dawn on you. For me, it is very simple. There is most definitely a supreme being out there who governs everything. The signs supporting this are very clear and I am most definitely a believer.

What I do not subscribe to are the methods being laid down by man in a book on how I should acknowledge or communicate with this being.

The moral construct behind Good vs. Evil, Heaven vs. Hell, God vs. Devil is difficult for me to grasp since logically if one is good, then he should never experience evil and vice versa which is not the case in the real world.

Good and Evil happens to us all. We should acknowledge this and refocus our lives on living in harmony with our world, both living and non-living.

Kobojunkie:
unconsciously, you have realized and accepted the lie only consciously you may not have acknowledged it. That is pretty my much the story with most religious people if you ask me. I bet when you were younger, you would scold yourself harshly for sinning but as time went by you began believing rather that your sins were specially pardon by your deity as opposed to the sins of others. You also probably began also believing that those who sinned against you, --- even if the same sins you may have yourself committed against others --would always get punished severely by your deity. undecided

Deeper life that year sha with the film of "burning Hell". Any time we wan do open crusade and dem say dem go show film, we all know say na burning Hell. Lolzzzzzzz. After watching the film, dem no born u Wella make u to come out for alter call. Lolzzzzzz. Well, as time goes on and we became older, the understanding about hell fire became clearer. No need to fear about Hell fire if your heart is right with God.

Stop all these stupid arguments Na. You already know that I used your fallacy to point out your fallacy and its fallsness.

Secondly, one proof of hell is in that fact everyone everywhere knows about it and those qualified to be in it are super greatly afraid of it to the point that many wish it is not real or create delusions about it or live denying it

But this question is off point as the topic is not about proof of hell.
Re: Used To Be Scared Of Hell fire When Young But Not Anymore, Why? by Sapiosexuality(m):
Probably because you've seen that it can't be true. If there's really a God and he's good, the idea of hell for petty sinners and top sinners, is not a good one. Even the idea of forever torture for top sinners who only committed sins in a finite timeline cannot be something from a rational, just God.

Because the very idea of hell is unrealistic...

Christianity is a slave religion, it was marketed for slaves who were suffering and being oppressed by their masters...

The slaves didn't have the strength or courage to physically fight back and free themselves, they couldn't take proper revenge, so they turned to psychological revenge...

That is how the idea of heaven and hell originated, the slaves would enjoy riches and power (they never had) in heaven while their oppressors would burn and scream in hell for all eternity.

Only a bitter, frustrated and petty soul would invent such a place.

Jesus himself forgave his enemies with his dying breath, that illustrates how noble Jesus was. He was very far from Christianity.
You don't even know something as simple as how Christianity started. You unintelligently made up something and believed that.

Food don ready! Some will post grammar and some will post their disbelieve in God.

One of the reasons is that we're so much enmeshed in struggling (may be for economic survival) that we may even go a month without remembering anything towards that angle.

2. We tend to understand better that it's not the fear that will get us away from the hellfire and like every other aspects of life, we surmount our fears as we grow up

3. God has not given us the spirit of fear
Your hell is a made up n0nsense designed to scar little children and idiotic gullible adults.

The question is as relevant as your delusional submission.

The proof of hell is that everyone knows about it?

So,because everyone has had about something that makes it true?

JUST LISTEN TO YOURSELF.

Why on Earth will the Supreme Being torture his own human creation in an eternal fire?

IT IS A PURE AND DISGUSTING CHRISTIAN LIE AND BLASPHEMOUS SMEAR AGAINST GOD.

This is why NO SENSIBLE PERSON believes in any RUBBISH called “hellfire”.

Your ancestors who civilised the entire world and were on this Earth tens of thousands years before any white man existed knew NOTHING about such a place.

The very idea is so horrific and disgusting. It is a pure LIE.

When we LEAVE this world, we transit to our REAL HOME, what we call the ‘spirit world’, which is actually the REAL WORLD, while THIS Earth life is just a temporal experience for your IMMORTAL SOUL to grow and learn through experience in a lower dimensional existence.

When you “die”, you return to your previous GLORY as an eternal, powerful being, regardless of what religion you choose to follow or not follow on Earth.

THAT IS THE BELIEF OF YOUR ANCESTORS.

Stop believing the LIES OF FOREIGN INVADERS WHO CAME TO STEAL YOUR RESOURCES AND GAVE YOU A BOOK TO SCARE YOU INTO SUBMITTING YOURSELF TO THEIR THIEVERY.

THERE IS NO HELLFIRE.

If such a place existed, YOUR ANCESTORS WOULD HAVE KNOWN ABOUT IT THOUSANDS OF YEARS AGO.

IT would not require British colonial invaders looking to STEAL YOUR LAND AND RESOURCES A MERE 100 YEARS AGO, for such knowledge to come to you and your people.

SO THE FACT THAT YOUR SOUL NOW REJECTS THE LIE IS A POSITIVE THING.

IT IS YOUR HIGHER SELF OR ‘CHI’ TELLING YOU IT IS A LIE, and to GROW UP.

believing hell is real won't save anyone.
Instead of believing hell is real, believe God and his son are real, repent and turn to them and believe in the kingdom of God.

The fear of God is what we need not to fear of hell, because the fear of hell will not save us but at least the fearful reverence towards God will give us wisdom that saves us, which is the gospel God's power and wisdom to save us.

So instead of going back to your former self why not take a step and become who God wants you to be in Christ because we can't save ourselves from hell even if we want to and try to, it's Jesus whom God sent that can save those God sends to him.

And if you are of God you don't need to be afraid of the coming judgement or hell do you? You will be built up and the gates of hell shall not prevail against you.
Why should you fear a god that's supposed to be an embodiment of love?

Why should you be threatened with hellfire and brimstone,for failing to believe in a god that embodies love?
