“Not likely... because God is in Hell.. He is omnipresent”
“That is the most bizarre comment I have ever read.”

Do you not understand what OMNIPRESENT means? It means God is EVERYWHERE..yes including hell

As Sproul notes...

A breath of relief is usually heard when someone declares, “Hell is a symbol for separation from God.” To be separated from God for eternity is no great threat to the impenitent person. The ungodly want nothing more than to be separated from God. Their problem in hell will not be separation from God, it will be the presence of God that will torment them. In hell, God will be present in the fullness of His divine wrath. He will be there to exercise His just punishment of the damned. They will know Him as an all-consuming fire.

Ps 139:8
If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there

I understand perfectly - just read what I stated and the Scripture quoted. My response was to Louis Foxwell who considered the idea bizarre, and I included you since he was responding to your comment re omnipresence with which I totally agree.
