HELL: IT'S NOT WHAT YOU THINK IT IS! (One Page Summary)
The teaching that Hell is a place of eternal conscious torture is an
unscriptural lie. Over four dozen Scriptures teach plainly that there is no
consciousness after death. Lazurus and the Rich Man verses in Luke 16 are a
parable. A parable by definition represents a truth other than the one in the
allegory given. This parable tells of the end of the Old Covenant for the Jews
alone and the beginning of the New Covenant for "whosoever will". It has
nothing to do with conscious suffering and reward one nanosecond after a person
bites the dust.
As for the teaching that Gehenna Hell (after the Judgment) is where billions
will undergo conscious torture eternally, the churches have wrongfully applied
the second connotation of "torment" ("to torture") instead of the preferred
first connotation ("to try, to test"). This and other egregious errors--once
seen and understood--expose other major false teachings that are symbiotically
connected to the dastardly deception that the Bible says that God has arranged
for the eternal torture of billions of souls who do not go to Heaven. It?s time
to clear this up and let one and all see that God is the infinitely merciful
Judge who does not even take pleasure in the death of a wicked person (Ezek.
33:11), much less his/her screaming in a torture chamber eternally!
You can know beyond any doubt that the Bible teaches that neither Hades Hell
nor Gehenna Hell is a place where multitudes writhe and scream in conscious
agony.Another false teaching views Hell as a place where all evil and evildoers
will be eradicated completely. Though less blasphemous than the eternal Dantean
Torture Chamber doctrine, this teaching is also demonstrably unScriptural.
More, it is illogical. With the perfect record of 6000 years of foreordained
interplay of good and evil on His computer chip (Acts 15:18), would God just
erase this infinitely precious and eternally useful resource and all memory of
the transgressors along with it?! What a crock! The transgressions of the Saved
are "remembered no more" (Jer. 31:34; Heb.10:12,17; Ps.103:12). But not so the
unSaved (Luke 12:2,3; Is. 14:15,16; 66:24; Rev. 22:15; etc.)!
Still others think there is no Hell, that God will let everybody off the hook
and into Heaven after all. To these folks Hell is just a superstitious myth. If
Scripture is one?s sole guide on the subject of Hell, this view (and not Hell)
is the myth!
In short, Hell, as all can know from Scripture alone, is a necessary and
vital part of God?s Plan for Creating mankind in the first place. Indeed,
without the kind of Hell God has planned, there could be no Heaven! Go HERE to
order a 114 page book of Bible facts which show God's judgment is fair!

Experiencing pain for eternity? Do you worship the Devil? Even the men,
women, children and animals of Dresden and Hamburg didn't have to endure that.
Is The Almighty an infinitely greater monster than Churchill, Roosevelt, Stalin
and Eisenhower put together?

The concept that pain, in varying severity, will be experienced for eternity is
beyond our comprehension just living for eternity in a place that is perfect -
another incomprehensible concept.

Isn't that just so sad and so true.. And you would think a scientist would
know what eternity is , and burning forever in it... No escape clause..
