is there a heaven and a hell?

Answer 1

yes, yes there is

Answer 2

According to the Bible, there is a heaven. As for the Hell, this is where I interpret things differently. If one looks at the original texts of the Bible (in Greek), the word "Hell" NEVER appears. In some places it says "Gehenna" or "the valley of the son of Hinnom" which is an actual place ON Earth; a place where people of Israel where actually burned. Jesus only spoke of this place metaphorically,in parables. The other way "hell" was translated was from the word "tartaros," which is Greek, or "Sheol", which is Hebrew. Both meaning "the grave." This was usually in reference to the angels who sinned, not man. No reference to fire and eternal punishment after death in either of this translations.

In fact, the Bible says ALL will be saved.

"For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation TO ALL" --Titus 2:11

"for as ALL die in Adam, so ALL will be made alive in Christ" --Corinthians 15:22

"And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw ALL people to myself" --John 12:32

"For to this end we toil and struggle, because we have our hope set on the living God, who is the Savior of ALL people, especially of those who believe" -- 1 Timothy 4:10

Answer 4

yes there is a heaven and a hell.......read the Bible, it explains all this and how to get to which ever one you think suits you best. I myself choose heaven, but for those who choose hell, just remember that God will give in to your wishes because hell IS eternal seperation from God. So I pray for all of you who are confused that you lean toward heaven...John 14:6 Jesus said "I am the way the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father, except thru ME.

Answer 5

Yes there is. Heaven is a beautiful day, for a ride in the country. Hell, is having to kiss your Mother in-law, on Easter

Answer 6

There is no fiery burning HELL. The Hebrew word translated hell in the Bible means “the grave,” that is, the common grave of all dead mankind. The Bible is very clear in stating that the soul is subject to death, saying: “The soul that is sinning—it itself will die.” (Ezekiel 18:4, 20) Also, The Catholic Douay Bible, at Ecclesiastes 9:5, 10, says: “The living know that they shall die, but the dead know nothing more. Neither have they a reward any more: for the memory of them is forgotten. Whatsoever thy hand is able to do, do it earnestly: for neither work, nor reason, nor wisdom, nor knowledge, shall be in hell [Sheol, AS], whither thou art hastening.” So, since the “dead know nothing more,” or as the King James Version says, “the dead know not any thing,” it would be impossible for them to know conscious torment. And since there is no work in hell, how can there be activity, red-hot or otherwise?

HEAVEN is where God and his faithful spirit family dwell. These are not creatures of blood and flesh, for they were created before our earth was created upon which we creatures of blood and flesh now live. Those heavenly “sons of God” are spirit, as God himself is, and they are absolutely distinct in nature from us earthly human creatures.

Heaven is also the seat of God's Kingdom (government). Those relatively few from the earth who go to heaven will have a specific purpose there. The Bible tells us that " ... they will be priests of God and of the Christ, and will rule as kings with him for the thousand years.”—Revelation 20:4-6. Compare also (Rev. 5:6-10) This will benefit all mankind.

God created man from the earth to live on the earth. He did not create humans to live for a little while here on earth then go to live in heaven. Although we all grow old and die now because of Adam and Eve's rebellion, God’s original purpose for the earth will still be fulfilled. In the beginning it was God’s purpose for obedient humans to live forever in an earthly Paradise. And God never fails to accomplish what he purposes! His Word plainly promises: “The righteous themselves will possess the earth, and they will reside forever upon it.”—Psalm 37:29.

For those of us who have lost loved ones, we have the very real hope of the resurrection and the opportunity to see our loved ones again right here on a paradise earth. The Bible tells how Jehovah will bring this about.

Answer 7

Yes. Not all people who have death experiences are crazy. Some have spoken of Heaven and experienced traveling beyond that tunnel of light everyone talks about which is just the brain shutting down.
Others didn't have such a great experience and have encountered a place of fire and torment.

Answer 8

Heaven and hell are here on earth! Just look around you!

Answer 9

No. Some people think there is, but there isn't. People say heaven is up, well, there is the atmostphere, and then there is space, no heaven. People say hell is down, there is the earth's crust, and layers of lava and rocks, then there is molten lava, no hell.
