PLEASE EXPLAIN THIS... The bible confirms that all are forgiving of their sins once the die. The Bible says the wages of sin pays death. So since we are forgiven of the things that we have done when we die and you DON'T believe that ones will be resurrected back to the earth, WHO DO YOU BELIEVE WILL BE ONES IN THIS firery hell that you believe in?

If you reject Christ, Now or 2nd resurrection or at the end of the (1000 years of Christ) then you will be judged by God and thrown into the Lake of Fire, this is the 2nd death.

It is a true death; you die, cease to exist, blotted out, and remembered no more by anyone.

All people are not forgiven when they die. Only those that accept Jesus christ as there personal savior are forgiven and will enter into heaven. The bible actually says the wages of sin IS death. Death in this may also be interpreted as going to hell. you must ask God for forgiveness and repent of your sins to be forgiven. The only way into heaven is through the blood of Jesus Christ that he spilled on the cross. All others will go to hell.

Where did you get your theology? Better yet, where did you get your Bible???

The Bible does not say "that all are forgiven their sins once they die" (and your spelling is atrocious!); and the Bible does not say: "...the wages of sin pays death."

It is more like the Death of One pays for the sins of many... and the wages of sin is death.

Enough said, but to answer your question, not all will go to hell, but most will lose their Salvation due to... INDIFFERENCE.

I am not one of those who believe in the churches hell. I believe in the bible. It clearly says that the dead are asleep, conscious of nothing, (Ecclesiastes 9:5) Jesus himself said that about his friend Lazarus.

John 11:11 He said these things, and after this he said to them: “Laz′a·rus our friend has gone to rest, but I am journeying there to awaken him from sleep.” < Please read ALL of chapter 11.

And YES people will be resurrected to the earth to live forever!

Psalms37:9 For evildoers themselves will be cut off,
But those hoping in Jehovah are the ones that will possess the earth.

10 And just a little while longer, and the wicked one will be no more;
And you will certainly give attention to his place, and he will not be.

11 But the meek ones themselves will possess the earth,
And they will indeed find their exquisite delight in the abundance of peace.

22 For those being blessed by him will themselves possess the earth,
But those upon whom evil is called by him will be cut off.

Matthew 5:5 “Happy are the mild-tempered ones, since they will inherit the earth.

These are biblical misinterpretations that are not true.

Jesus could not have died for something that never existed. Therefor no one goes to hell.

Sin, the idea that God could ever be displeased with you because of something you had done, did not exist when Jesus died, nor does it exist now.

This is a fictitious idea dreamed up to induce guilt and control people.

The moment you start to actually think about this impossible definition of sin the whole concept falls apart and you wonder how you could had ever believed it at all.

Try it, think about the idea from a basis of logic and it quickly becomes apparent that the idea only exists in the minds of those who believe it is real.

Let me assist you a little. Let’s start with the word itself. Where did this word sin come from? In England when archery was practiced as a sport the goal was to try to hit the center of a target. When you actually try to do this you quickly realize just how difficult it is to consistently hit the exact center of the target, or the mark as it was called then. This mark in the center of the target is an elusive goal for even the best archers due to the many variables like, Wind, distance, angle, etc. So they often miss the mark they were hoping to hit. They had a term for this missing the mark; it was called a syn or sin as it is spelled these days. Often the wind would blow an arrow that had been shot with the best of intentions, so far off course that it completely missed the mark it was aimed for. Seeing this a companion might look at the archer with a smile and say that was a syn. Meaning, you missed the mark, you had better try again. At this point he would simply string another arrow, make the necessary corrections to compensate for the wind and try again. This process would continue until he eventually got it right and hit the mark.

What does this have to do with the reality of sin you ask? Remember that you are reading an English bible, a bible that was translated from some other language. When this translation was done English words needed to be found that had a meaning as close as possible to the meaning of the words the bible had used in the other language. Remember the goal of any good translation is to be as faithful as is possible in transferring the original meaning of the work. The English term syn was the word that most completely did this job of transferring the original idea of sin from the original text. In the original biblical intent, sin was not something that God was displeased with you about. It meant that you had tried but your choice was not the best you could have made, you needed to make the necessary corrections and try over.

This is what life is about. Situations confront us on a daily basis, each requiring some response from us. We may chose to respond in one of two ways. We assess the situation and respond from either a basis of love or from a basis of fear. When we respond from our fears we invariably respond in an unloving manner. This unloving response always creates even more negativity. On the other hand if we respond from a basis of love to the situation, it has a calming effect for all who are involved. It may not completely resolve the situation but it never makes things any worse. Through out life each of us alternately chooses both loving and unloving responses as our responses to the situations we are confronted with. The hope being that at some point we will start to notice that one of these strategies creates more chaos, while the other causes chaos to dissipate. This was Gods intent in allowing us to have this experience we call our life. This is why the endless variety of situations and possible responses to these situations confront us on a daily basis. We are expected to experiment with the numerous possible ways to respond and come to our own conclusions about which types of responses best serve our goals.

Most of us quickly realize that we prefer a peaceful calm existence to one of constant turmoil. If we are paying attention to the responses we have been making to the situations we have been confronted with we will notice that some of them, the ones made from a basis of fear intensify chaotic situations. Much like throwing gasoline on a fire would do. While the responses we make from a basis of love have an opposite quelling or calming effect.

Mine (and others) belief on that is you may not necessarily go to either place.
When you leave this physical world, depending on how you were, you go to an area in the spiritual realm that matches your spirit.
You know the passage in the Bible: "You reap what you sow"? That surely doesn't mean you go to either one place or the other.
I think the way God set up the spiritual world is totaly fair.
How you are in this life will place you in like standing in the spiritual world.
And yes, I do believe in a concept of "Hell", but you don't want to know that.
Best to believe in Jesus as the Messiah.

The bible, Gods holy word, does not say that. Everyone will go to heaven or hell. Read the KJV of the bible, and see if you can find anything about everyone being saved when they die.

Neither
The bible talks of 3 outcomes for humans
1 Those that die, and return to non-existence.(no eternal suffering).
2 Those that will live forever on the earth.(The meek).
3 Those that will die and be ressurected as spirit creatures.(those who are baptized into the death of Jesus).

the bible does not say that all are forgiven of their sins when they die. it says we will be forgiven our sins when we truly repent them, feel bad about them, and are baptised in christ. the bible says the wages of sin is death, meaning the death of your soul. after this, you've lost me. who are you? are you one of the people that believe that if you kill god's children that you will be given a mansion and some virgins to while away your time with? isn't this kind of contradictive, that you are supposed to live your life in celibacy, and then you get to deflower innocent girls? in the afterlife? what are you thinking. it's not ok to sin in this life, but in the after, supposedly holy life, you are allowed to? makes no sense to me.

I think you've misunderstood your texts, Little One.
It says "The wages of sin is Death"...in other words, death is the payment we recieve for sin. Because all have sinned, all have given up their right to immortality. Sinners are not tortured through eternity...they die.
"But"...it goes on to say..."the gift of God is eternal life."
Where do we find this gift? The answer is so simple.
"through Jesus Christ our Lord".
