If you go to hell, is it possible to get out?

Question

I heard that if you go to hell, but you want to accept jesus, god will rescue you. Is that true?

Answer 1

Don't worry, going to hell is like living in Ethyopia, Afghanistan or Somalia, only but warmer and with food.

Answer 2

A good argument has been made that hell in the bible refers to the grave and not a place of eternal suffering. Another good argument has been made that the later of fire is the process of a merciful annihilation on judgment day of those unfit for heaven. Personally I am not a Christian and believe that hell is first and foremost a state of mind, a state of mind I might add that many Christians are in right now. There may, or may not be, a place in the afterlife where souls are held that are not mature and may indeed suffer there. Though they may suffer there they are not purposefully tortured. Whatever discomfort they feel is either their own choices they are continuing to make and or growing pains. I also do not believe anything is permanent and we always have a choice to change. One of the mediums of this change could very well be through the process of reincarnation. This gives the soul a chance to grow closer to God over time while allowing God to show true compassion. Hell can overcome us at any moment which most often is our choice. I believe the Kingdom of God is at hand is really the potential for us to tap into the present moment at any given point and feel the interconnectedness of everything including God. The true nature of Ananda ( joy) is spiritual.

Answer 3

No. Once a person crosses over from this life into the next without Christ, God closes the door to his grace and mercy *forever*. The only thing a person has to look forward to then, is an agonizing eternity in hell, complete darkness and loneliness, God's wrath, and the lake of fire.

Read the story of Lazarus (a different Lazarus, not the one Jesus raised from the dead) and the rich man in Luke 16. Also, read Hebrews 9:27.

Please don't make that same tragic mistake that so many people make every single minute of every single day.

Answer 4

First of all, it’s not a question of whether or not you will go to Hell since we’re all already in it. And it is possible to get out of it, but we cannot do it ourselves (not by being good or by our own works). And it is true the only way to escape from Hell is by being rescued by God. The requirement for God to do this is for you to “accept Jesus” who is the Word of God “made flesh”, that is, the Word of God recorded in a material form. We in the Western world call that the Bible. There may be other Scriptures that contain the Word also.

Answer 5

Nope. Not a chance. That's why in Dante, there's a sign at the door that says, "Abandon all hope, all ye who enter here"

Technically, there IS a getting out at some point, but it's for the worse. Those who are in Hell, will, on the Last Day be vomited up from Hell to stand before God at the Great White Throne Judgement, and from there they will be cast into the Lake of Fire, where they will be tormented day and night in a lake of fire. Not a pretty picture; God didn't intend it to be.

Answer 6

Yes it's true you can switch sides at any time (both sides are always delighted to take anyone they can get, they are all desperate for members). But why on earth would you ever want to do such a silly thing? Have you any idea that the Christian heaven is a set up? It's Garden of Eden II, an illusion, a place full of bible-thumpers who think sex is dirty sin.

FYI, god rescues nobody, only Lucifer is good at liberating like she did with Eve & Adam.

Answer 7

If you die and haven`t accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior,speaking the salvation prayer(or similar words) out loud before a group of people, KNOWING, truly knowing, that He is your ONLY way to be with God in paradise, you will go to hell with no way to "change your mind"...that`s why the question.."Where will YOU spend eternity" comes up so often. Make your choice now, while you can. I believe the only people exempt from this are children who have not yet reached the age of reckoning,and people who are oblivious to the true meaning of Christianity. From my heart...to yours...I hope to meet to there someday! : )

Answer 8

There is no "hell" with fiery pits and satan's lair. Satan doesn't even exist. The real hell that murderers go to is like an afterlife world gone wrong - a prison within their own minds. You know that feeling you get when you really have to do something, but just can't remember what it is? Or, that weird dream you usually have when you go to bed sick, where you have to keep fixing things that are out of place? Hell is an afterlife with an eternity of that, and it's well deserved.

Answer 9

Acts 2:31-35;
And he seeing this before spoke of the resurrection of Christ that his soul was not left in hell [sepulchre, cave, grave or a tomb of memorial John 19:38-41]; Rev.20:1-6; 12,13;
Resurrection is out of hell, out of death, out of sea, any where the dead is.

1Cor,15:22; As in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. Isa.26:19;

Satan has 6,130 years from Eden. He has been a liar and a murderer all this time, even having our savior crucified. Heb.2:9,14,16; Jesus is to do away with this enemy and the enemy death that he cause so we are going from LOST 6,130 years to SAVED in Rev.20:1-6; in 1000 years in a new heavens and a new earth 2Pet.3:13; Isa.66:1,22;

Answer 10

I heard a story about a guy that did get out of hell. It goes like this. One day the devil was wanting to play a game so he told three guy's an american, mexican, and chinese guy if they could trick him or ask him a question he couldnt answer he would let them go. So they all agreed. Then the devil took the 3 men to this deserted island and asked who wanted to go first. Well the american said hey I'll go first. Ok devil you see that island way the hell over there? I bet you cant make it come up and touch this island. And with a big wave of his hand the devil made the island swoosh across the sea and touch the island they were on. So poof the american was sent back to hell! The the chinese man said ok im next . He asked the devil to multipy 904,0123,1125 by 762,125,147 divide it by 301,796 add 10,000 and subtract 945,336 meanwhile the mexican was walking along the beach looking for something. Whithout hesitation the devil answered the math question perfect and poof the chinese man was sent back to hell. The devil was allready getting tired and was thinking anough of this nonsense let's get this game over. So he looked around and shouted hey mexican what the hell are you doing come on its your turn let's go. The mexican said ah chill out devil im looking for something. He then bent over and picked up a 2lb empty folger's coffee can. The devil was looking at him weird and said ok what's your question i dont have all day. The mexican asked the devil for a knife so the devil gave him one then he began to polk holes all over the coffee can. The devil was scrathing his head thinking what's this stupid mexican doing, are you done yet the devil asked. He said hold on devil just about done. Then the mexican put the big opened end of the coffee can on his butt and let out a big blasting fart. Then he handed the coffe can to the devil and asked him Ok devil tell me which hole that fart came out of? The devil sniffed all around the coffee can and then pointed to a small hole that was in it and said this one it came out of this hole. The mexican looked at the devil with a smile and said (pointing to his butt) No NO NO muddaphucker it came out of this hole.

God bless that mexican!

Answer 11

There is no way out if one ends up there.

Listed below is bible scripture to support my answer. Please read especially Luke 16:26.

Luke 16:19 There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day:

Luke 16:20 And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores,

Luke 16:21 And desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table: moreover the dogs came and licked his sores.

Luke 16:22 And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried;

Luke 16:23 And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.

Luke 16:24 And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.

Luke 16:25 But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented.

Luke 16:26 And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that [would come] from thence.
