Hell is not empty, there are MANY of us in Illinois.
Hell is not empty, there are MANY of us in Illinois.
And some other places . . .
More seriously, that place I recognize as Hell is empty now. It will not be filled until the final judgement mentioned in Revelations. Then, even Satan himself will be judged and cast into it.
As for now, Hades is the stand in place. As described by Jesus in the story of Lazarus and an unnamed rich man, they are there, not Hell or Heaven. Yet one is in ‘Abraham’s Bosom’ and the other in torment, a lake of fire. And NOTHING in scripture allows anything done there to change the judgement which will only consider what we do on Earth. We have to make that change here, in our minds, hearts and lives.
