What is the Biblical view of hell?

[otseng]

The concept of Hell is one of the many unmarketable, embarrassingly unbelievable religious concepts that has been recently swept under the altar in the severely diluted quasi-belief system that passes for Christianity in certain circles.

In fact, I think this is why Christianity invented eternal punishment in hell. They started to realize that just plain dying wouldn't be compelling. So instead they invented the concept of "Everlasting Punishment" for those who refuse to comply.

Questions for debate:
What is the Biblical view of hell?
What concepts do we have of hell that are not in the Bible?

I will never believe in your Sadist-God.

Well, actually, the Bible says you will. Well, except for the "sadist" part, as that's just silly... just an attempt to justify your position. At any rate, one day, every knee will bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord. The only question, really, as far as that goes, is which side of Glory you will be on.

Grace and peace to you.

Just hilarious!

Well the guys in the videos appear to be Christians who experienced what they consider was something real. I don't just research Christian testimony on the subject.

[theQuestion]

We DREAM when we fall asleep- and when almost dying.

That has no bearing on what the concept od GOD Eternally burning men, women, and children alive, FOREVER really means!
And it has no connection to the inspired Word of God!

A question that will not be answered by mere consideration of what our position or view on "hell" is or is not.

Condemned for re-writing Gods Word
Romans 14: 7 For none of us lives only in relation to himself, and none of us dies only in relation to himself;
8 for if we live, we live in relation to the Lord; and if we die, we die in relation to the Lord. So whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord -
9 indeed, it was for this very reason that the Messiah died and came back to life, so that he might be Lord of both the dead and the living.

John 12: 42 Nevertheless, many of the leaders did trust in him; but because of the P'rushim they did not say so openly, out of fear of being banned from the synagogue;
43 for they loved praise from other people more than praise from God.
44 Yeshua declared publicly, "Those who put their trust in me are trusting not merely in me, but in the One who sent me.
45 Also those who see me see the One who sent me.
46 I have come as a light into the world, so that everyone who trusts in me might not remain in the dark.
47 If anyone hears what I am saying and does not observe it, I don't judge him; for I did not come to judge the world, but to save the world.
48 Those who reject me and don't accept what I say have a judge -- the word which I have spoken will judge them on the Last Day.
49 For I have not spoken on my own initiative, but the Father who sent me has given me a command, namely, what to say and how to say it.
50 And I know that his command is eternal life. So what I say is simply what the Father has told me ..

Amen...

Unbelievable! Despite all the clear biblical facts, they passionately cling to their church defecation!

How Godly do they think torturers are as they (fill in the many grisly blanks)?
And they can only do it for as long as their victims are ALIVE!
The Sadist-Gods of Churchinaity have no such limit- and how loving and just that They gave worms and maggots Eternal Life to chew on the trillions of men women and children (with billions more to add!) FOREVER without END!

The Ultimate Blasphemy.

Even some churches are coming to their senses, dropping the sick and perverted dogma!
