RE: How was Lazarus supposed to get there to drop a little water into his mouth, and what good was that supposed to do him? Wouldn’t the fires have burned Lazarus?

I don’t know how that question invalidates the reality that the rich man was in CONSCIOUS torment.

The place he was in was also mentioned — HADES.

If you want to argue that his torment is TIME LIMITED, maybe you might have a point, but the reality of the torment cannot be ignored.

You entirely miss my point by continuing to press the details of the parable. We need to get our doctrine from other places, not by pressing the incidents that go to make up a parable. That's all I'm saying.
