Are people in hell really punished ?

Question

The Devil controls hell, isn't possible that the Devil is building an army of evil people who have terrorised Earth since the beginning of time and then one day unleash it upon Earth or even Heaven?

Answer 1

LMAO!!!

You should be a satrist, my friend. Your witticism might offend some, but its definitely good material. To answer the rhetorical question, you may be right! The Devil is about as power hungry as the greatest bloodthirsty dictators in history, and will brainwash people to get his gain.

Answer 2

My reading of the Bible indicates that the Devil is not in control of hell, God is. God controls everything, knows everything, knows what will happen in the future, can change anything,
The Bible indicates the devil is kind of an arrogant party guy, a kind of smart a s s frat brat, who wants to know it all.
If you look at his record the Devil hasn't committed a felony.
His worst crime is being arrogant toward God and may have even suggested that he is better than God.
No, I probably won't be punished in hell because I will not have to endure an eternity of Jerry Fallwell, Pat Robertson or greedy scum of their ilk. I think I prefer the company of other sinners.
Would a loving God really do that to his children? We in the US have child abuse laws and arrogance or disobedience is no justification for a parent to hold a match to a child's finger or burn the finger on the stove. We take children away from parents that are that brutal. I do not worship a brutal God who would sacrifice his own son needlessly (He's all powerful and can make any rule He wants), I worship no god who demands blood sacrifice of children, his own or others.
Would you want to spend an eternity with the Bible spewers? They seriously need to get a real life and accept that they are going to die.

Answer 3

Maybe the Devil is sort of like a druglord. He gets all of the people in Hell addicted to some kind of superdrug, even more addictive than cocaine. He might not need to be brutal and vicious at all, because if you don't do his will, then you don't get any drugs. The withdrawal could be 100 times worse than cocaine withdrawal, and maybe that's the real fire of Hell, inflicted onto the disobedient. Breaking the addiction is impossible, as using it once makes you addicted forever. Evil ultimately revolves around chaos, and I doubt that the Devil would try to create some rigid order among his people. However, he would still need to have absolute power over them, and that would be the perfect way. Drug addictions lead men to prison and women into prostitution. Morality goes right out the window for drug addicts, who will literally do ANYTHING to get their next fix.

Answer 4

Hell does not exist yet...it will not exist until 1000 years past the end of this Age...Satan does not control anything and actually he exists in Heaven now. He does have his followers...and he is coming back. He will try to muster up an army and fight; but he will lose badly. And there is punishment in hell; but not as many think...it is much more final--death of the soul...perish eternally--which makes for an interesting study. It means they will cease to exist both forwards and backwards in time and that is why no one will ever miss them...it is as if they never existed...totally goned!!!!!

Answer 5

God created hell for the devil and his angels. He sure is not in control of it. Matthew 25: 41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels: Since man has rejected what God has done for them they to have been cast into hell when they die. Today if we reject what the Lord Jesus Christ did on cross for our sins then hell is were people go. 1 Corinthians 15: 3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 1 Corinthians 15: 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

Answer 6

Hell is not the kind of hell that man has made it to become. The word Hell just means covered hole or mans common grave. And in revelations it says that death and Hell will be cast into the lake of fire. How can this be if Hell is already the Hell everyone assumes. Why does anyone think that our loving Father. would make us, his children suffer for a eternity, just because we refused to accept him. Would you be so cruel to your own child? The torture that Revelations talks about is being cut off from God-separation. You are wiped out of God's memory, you cease to exist.

Answer 7

no. they will be punished and this is how,not by eternal burning in a physical sense but imagine being so convinced that something does not exist to find out that it does and to know that you will live in an eternity with the pain and torment of knowing what you could have had and will not. That my friend is torture.
The devil has already lost, and he knows it, he is just trying to take as many of mankind as he can.
God Bless

Answer 8

Yes esternal death for people that don't accept the Gospel you have time to make the call now it's better to accept God now and face trials and there may be times when we want to give up on God the bible is true look how in mat 24 talks about the end nations vrs nations and the increas of the wicked also 4Jesus answered: "Watch out that no one deceives you. 5For many will come in my name, claiming, 'I am the Christ,[a]' and will deceive many. 6You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. 7Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. 8All these are the beginning of birth pains. this is all true yes hell is real it's so real you don't want to go there be wise be smart save yourself from eternal death in hell God loves you and wants to save you. don't let this opportunity slip by God is love he wants to save you accept him as your personal savior and see how your life will change w/b if any questions ok God bless you

Answer 9

No God still controls everything as it was God who had to designate a place for those who rebelled against Him. Satan goes to and fro on the earth trying to destry lives and cause wars, murder and overall chaos. Hell is the eternal place where those who chose not to accept Christ will be punished.

Answer 10

The Devil exists everywhere on earth and yes the terrorists are on his side....don't know what hell's like and never will thank the Lord above ...for saving me...
