You couldn't be more wrong, Riverman. Hell is a real place where demons torment the unbeliever for all of eternity. It's horrible. Read "23 Minutes in Hell" for a little glimpse of hell. Not nice.
I will look up that book.Yet what about all the people who have had near death experiences and have come to opposite conclusions?Betty Eadie,for one.
I may be terribly mistaken but I really don't think Hell is my destination.Sure,I've sinned VERY often in life and not only violating God's law but my OWN moral standards.I have had to do a lot of forgiving and atonement,not only to God but for those I have hurt.
I'm almost sixty now,a cancer survivor going on five years-Praise God-,a doper,an alky,a s--t stirrer,a blasphemer,an adulterer,a fornicator,a liar and a real jackass much of the time.I KNOW sin,baby.
So the only way to redeem myself is to spend my life serving God and the righteous down here on Earth.I ain't got it COMPLETELY together yet but I'm sure nuff' working on it!
Riverman.
