Since I plan on having an open-mind and seeking my own answers, will I be prepared for hell?

Question

I mean really, since I've been dealt a pretty bad hand here on earth, I'm not sure hell is ready for me. I mean, I've adapted to being in pain, suffering internally, and being crippled. What does hell got on me? I'm in constant pain, I take pain killers, no woman will go near me due to my burns, and I'm in a wheelchair. Why does any god deserve my love? How could hell be any worse?

For all of you 'moral' good happy god people, ....survive a fire, lose the ability to walk, and look in the mirror and see you've become a hideous wreck, will you still love god then? will you perhaps shrug off hell as just a continuation of your life here?

I'm not scared of hell, i'm already there, bring it on!

Answer 1

Father, you love this person so much. In Jesus name, I ask that you heal their heart, please touch them with your grace and mercy. Jesus, you are the healer of our bodies, our souls. Please touch this person today and bring healing to the pain within them. Lord, whatever plan you have, please begin your work today, that no matter what state their body may be in, their heart and mind can come to know your love and grace..may your love flow over their heart today and set them free, in the name of Jesus Christ, amen.

Answer 2

I won't pretend to know what you are going through, and I'll say that I'm sorry for you even though those words may anger you. Your pain and lack of faith are understandable. No one I know would probably feel any different from you if they were in your situation not even myself. But you must understand this. You will not be going to hell, in anyway shape or form. Terrible aweful things happen to people everyday, and it's not because God doesn't love you. While we are here on earth we all have pain and feel heartache some worse than others and for some the pain is far too much to bear. My aunt died several years ago of cancer. She was in terrible pain and wasted away over 4 years time. She doubted God's love for her I'm sure but in the end she realized it never left her. Our bodies are only a vessel for the being that we really are. You may not know it but you could become so much more than you were before the fire. Call and find out about meetings where you can talk to other severe burn sufferers. They may even come to your home. They will be people who will know what you are going through, and will be able to help in some small way to ease your mind. And do one last thing, tonight as you lay down to sleep. Pray to God and Jesus Christ. Cuss, scream, tell them that you feel they've turned thier back on you. Tell them that you need them now more than ever, and that you want them with you. You may not know it but they were never apart from you it is truly at the darkest hour of our lives that they are closest to us all. I wish you peace and God's love. Tonight you will be in my prayers if in no one else's

Answer 3

Wow. That is pretty bad. I can relate. I have Fibromyalgia. I look perfectly normal, but I've been in constant pain since I was 9 (maybe 10. FMS is pain in my neck, shoulders, & back. It was a HUGE opportuinty for bullies to tease me. It made me miss school. The worst part is that there's nothing to show people. If I want to "show" other people my problem, all I can have them do is poke my neck.

I can't sit for long periods of time. If I write by hand...(it's hard)...my arms tense up, then my neck, shoulders, & back, which makes it harder to write, & thus it cycles until I can't do it anymore. (Thank the Lord for computers!!!)

That just the surface. There is a LOT more CRUD in my life, more than I'd like to say, & there are some things I'm not allowed to talk about. Suffice it to say, I've been dealt quite a crappy hand as well.

God is the only way I've been able to come to terms with my life. My Church community is my extended family; people there love me. Praying gives me some firm ground upon which to stand. I thnk God that I'm alive; I know God has a purpose for me...I just can't comprehend it now.

One thing I know for sure: God does not want me to be a secretary or have any other sort of desk job! :-)

Peace be with you!!!

Answer 4

so sorry for what has happened to you and its totally understandable that you are looking for answers !
i quite agree that sometimes this place is like hell on earth and people suffer so much and im not even gonna get into the whole god speach cause thats not what you want to hear
i have to say though that you underestimate women .. because speaking personally i can see beyond physical appearance and i know many also who can and do ( dont give up on that ever )
and why wouldnt god deserve your love dude i know i said i wouldnt go into god .. but im making an exception here .. everyone is deserving of your love even god ( you said it hehe )
ok if i can say anything positive to you at all its that this life is short .. and we do what we can while we are here ..
and yes people go through the most horrendous experiences here
but if i am right and there is an afterlife .. then it is one of perfection and in that perfection you too will be perfect in every aspect
if i am wrong then this life isnt for long and it is over .. and no more suffering
either way youre gonna get out of this life babe .. so you just do your best to get strong , physically and mentally to the best of your abilities and dont let this beat you .. because you are worth so much more and can be so much more
please see link below if it is any help to you
take care dude and love to you xx

Answer 5

I'm sorry for your pain and loss. However, don't dismiss hell as something trivial. You might be in constant pain now, and that's nothing to scoff at, but you do receive some comforts in this world -- maybe a good night's sleep, or a funny joke, or an interesting TV program, etc. In hell there are no such comforts, nor is there any hope of eventual release from the pain. Much better to accept that God loves you and sent his Son to die for your sins than reject God's love and experience hell. Think about it rationally: would you rather have eternal bliss, or eternal pain? I haven't suffered what you've suffered, but I'd rather take the bliss myself.

Answer 6

Life has dealt you a bad hand, but I don't believe any god or spirit or demon had anything to do with that. Don't complicate the situation by feeling anger at beings that don't exist, and certainly don't waste your time thinking about hell.

You're still alive, and you're still able to communicate. You may have to adjust your expectations a bit, but there's no reason why you cannot be happy. No one expects you to be happy about what has happened to you, but don't give up on happiness. Life is too precious and brief for that.

Find a support group in your area, or start one. Use the Internet to find others who have suffered similar hardships and learn from their examples what to avoid and what to emulate.

This is the only life you'll ever have (as far as we know for certain). Make the best of it, even though it will be difficult.

Answer 7

Before you assume anything about me, here are some facts... Its called perception. When I was born, I weas born with a birth defect that blocked off my vagina, When I was 8 I had given my heart to Jesus, but that didn't stop bad things from happening. My older brother decided to use me as his own personal sex toy. But he could never go inside because of the birth defect.. Still think God isn't real? Let me continue, I have been raped, assulted, beaten, hungry, homeless, divorced because my husband left me for a stripper.... I could go on, but you get the idea.... The difference between Loving God and hating Him, is perspective. I could accuse Him of things that are NOT His fault, because thats what satan wants.. Or, i could continue to fight the good fight of Faith, and remain in love with Jesus, and actually LISTEN to HIM and not my own desires, or pain, or anything else that this world provides... God didn't do this to you man! TRUST ME.... The world did.. satan did, and the funny thing is, your allowing it... Do you love you misery? Do you really think that because your burned that a woman would not want you? There are women out there, myself included, that no matter what the man looked like, If his heart was real, true , pure, kind.. ect... and of course, he would have to be able to laugh and laugh with me... I would go out with him... and I have been told my whole life I am cute... So don't allow satan to convince you that this is it... that God did this, or that there is nothing more, because there is SO much more... and in case your wondering abotu the vagina thing, I was only the 8th person in the world to have the surgery to correct it, when I was 12... However, because it was not found out till then, there was permanent damage to my hormones and ovaries ect... I don't blame my Jesus at all.... I know he has a plan... Its all in the perspective...

Answer 8

First of all I doubt anyone, nor I, can comprehend your suffering and pain nor would we want to be able to however I regret that anyone must suffer at all. Man, being human, has two worlds a physical world (one that you know all too well with it's suffering) and a spiritual world which exist around us and after we leave our physical world. Within your body is a created spirit that feels no pain or suffering from the physical body. Each person, if they look and seek internally, will know there is something inside their body that is alive and eternal and that is that spirit. Upon death that spirit still lives, outside the body and apart from the body that feels pain and suffering. It is that spirit that either lives and exist eternally in heaven or torment. The kind of torment that the spirit would feel is totally different than the physical pain that the physical body feels. What's that like ??? I don't know nor can anyone actually. Spiritual decisions about our spiritual fate are made using our physical mental resources but after the life is over we are bound by those decisions. You certainly are in torment on earth with suffering and pain and feelings of isolation but spiritual separation and death could be worse. You seem to seek death but what you seek is termination to your physical suffering. God uses many people for many purposes and many find ways to use their suffering and pain to glorify God. God doesn't demand your love but rather seeks it. What God does demand is that we accept His provision of sacrifice for our sins. Will it make your suffering any less? I don't know God can do many things but only to those that find and believe in Him and accept His requirements. You along can make your own decisions. God didn't cause your suffering being human and in a physical world causes suffering. God set for the requirements to satisfy Him long before any of us existed and it's our decision whether or not to accept them.

Answer 9

I feel really bad for you.
I am sorry about your handicap.
Many people have had accidents etc and still function. They seem to have risen above the problem. God did not to this to you because he is not an angry God.
I started not to answer this question because I was not sure what to say to you.
Believing in God puts a lot of things into prospective and gives you something to hold on to.
I am not trying to convert you but He can help you alleviate your despair and pain.
I am not trying to sound harsh or mean.
I am feeling your anger and pain and trying to help'
I can't convince you or will I try.
I will however, pray for you, that your pain is relived and you lose some of your anger.
God loves you.
I love you.
God bless you sweetie. You are not alone.

Answer 10

Hell is so much worse than anything you have ever experienced here on earth, it would be wise to rethink your stance. Imagine all the worst people, Genghis Kahn, Hitler, Jack the Ripper. You'll be with them for eternity.

Sure, what you have been through has been bad, but believe it or not, there have been worse. Your pain came by accident. Think about those people in Hitler's concentration camps who were walking skeletons, who died because of torture, who died because of other people's evils. I think suffering in cases like that is even worse. You never know how much worse it's going to get until it does.

I'm sorry for what happened to you, but to say that God doesn't love you is not true. I know it can be hard to look past the pain in our lives to see God's loving hand, but it is there if you will only look for it.

God has done everything to make a way for you to be painfree for eternity (which is a LOT longer than a few years here on earth!), but He's not going to force you to accept it. If you don't want to be with Him through eternity, He will allow you to choose hell, but He'd rather you spend eternity with Him.

Answer 11

No one is ever ready for hell. Your worst day is a picnic compared to hell. Total separation from God, hope, love and light in addition to pain that the normal body couldn't survive is just the beginning. Every evil person, the devil and the fallen angels will be there to further torment. You will die someday and if you were saved, you would be pain free in a perfected body lining in heaven then. Once a person is in hell, it is ever lasting. God didn't put you in a wheel chair and in constant pain. The devil comes to kill, steal and destroy, but Jesus came that we might have life , and that more abundantly. God loves you, and He wants you to have a better future.The devil hates you and wants to keep you defeated and ultimately destroyed.
