If there is a Hell, do you think God is there?
Jesus came to show that evil has no power, presence or intelligence.
Do you think that man has the power to do greater spiritual things than Jesus?

“If there is a Hell, do you think God is there?”

My Father’s Mansion has many rooms. God is everywhere... Both Omnipresent and Omnipotent.

Great question. David believed that God was there (Psalm 139:8) but I believe he wrote that indicating that God was everywhere He chose to be. Hell, as the Jews knew of it, was called the "Place of Departed Spirits" and was divided into two locations, "The Bosom of Abraham" and "Hades", divided by an impassible chasm. Peter wrote about Christ preaching in Hell (1 Peter 3:19).

Jesus came to show that evil has no power, presence or intelligence.

Nope. That was a secondary effect. Christ came to redeem the lost. Evil held no power over Him but it most certainly has power over man when we do not trust in Christ.

Do you think that man has the power to do greater spiritual things than Jesus?

Jesus said that we can (John 14:12).
