There is no hell! And I do not care what the Christian perversion of God’s Torah says. You will find no mention of an everlasting hell ANYWHERE in Torah or the writings of the prophets. It is all a scare tactic.
Might want to check out Revelation.
Hell, the underworld, netherworld, Hades, Sheol, Gahenna are all names of hell are mentioned in the Bible more times than heaven is mentioned.
WHEW!!!!!!! That's a relief, now I can REALLY have fun here on Earth....thanks for the update!!!
Are you trying to spoil the fun of having eternally tormented souls to look down on from heaven?
Mr. Armstrong....is that you?!
Alas, most of the people telling others they are going to hell are like ignorant children who have to bully others to feel they are superior to someone else. Jesus has a story about this type: comparing the publican and the Pharisee.
I can think of a few people I hope are in hell: Stalin, Mao, PolPot etc. Yet I remember a haunting sci fi story by a famous Jewish writer that ends with Hitler painting the walls with roses in the afterlife, i.e. being healed and purified so he can enter heaven...sounds like purgatory to me, but then, as a doc, I see a lot of different people, and most of them sin due to weaknesses, many are atheists because they believed in false things told to them by anti Christians, or because they are bitter against God for losing a loved one.
there is evil in the world, and Christians are not the only ones who see a place of punishment for those who commit terrible crimes.
So when I see a local politician here in the Philippines die and get buried in honor while I know he or she has stolen millions of pesos from money meant to help the poor, or ordered his political rivals or the local newspaper reporter murdered for making this public, it makes me hope they will get some type of punishment: either a very long time in purgatory or even in hell.
