Complete title:THE FOUR LAST THINGS —— DEATH, JUDGMENT, HELL and HEAVEN
Iron Maiden - From Here to Eternity
She fell in love with his greasy machine
She leaned over wiped his head
kickstart clean
She’d never seen the beast before
But she left there wanting
more more more
But when she was walking on
down the road
She heard a sound that made
her heart explode
He whispered to her to get on the back
“I’ll take you on a ride
from here to eternity”
Hell ain’t a bad place
Hell is from here to eternity
Hell ain’t a bad place
Hell is from here to eternity
She must be having one of her
crazy dreams
She’d never sat on a piece so mean
It made her feel like she’s on cloud nine
She even thought she heard the
engine sigh
But like all dreams that come to an end
They took a tumble at the devil’s bend
The beast and Charlotte they were
two of a kind
They’d always take the line...
from here to eternity
Hell ain’t a bad place
Hell is from here to eternity
Hell ain’t a bad place
Hell is from here to eternity
sorry...
I have to take issue that this is talking about being literally hungry in hell. There is no promise that the damned will have new bodies, much less life in eternity. The wages of sin is death. They will be thrown into the lake of fire, which is the second death. Certainly from the perspective of those in eternity, their torment is eternal, but from their own perspective, they are destroyed, dead, apart from God...where God is the essential reality of all things...in other words they go to oblivion. They end, but from the perspective of those in eternity, the smoke of their torment is visible always.
Rather I think Christ's point was that too much is never enough. That intemperate people are trying to fill a God sized whole with mere earthly food.
Such is all vanity, and a chasing after the wind. So ofcoarse those who are full in an earthly sense end up the most desperatly hungry in a heavenly sense...and we know some, such as pop culture stars who have all the money, fame, fortune, and wild women thier flesh could desire...and yet oft times left so hungry for something real they despair, and a signifigant number have even commited suicide.
Note, Christ often used earthly things like hunger and thirst as illustrations of heavenly things. And even confused and shocked some listners when He told them they had to eat His flesh and drink His blood.
