Then why would He allow his creations, which are a part of Himself, to suffer in Hell forever?

They made that choice for themselves.

The bible doesn't say that people will suffer in hell forever.
It's a false teaching. It's called everlasting punishment not everlasting punishing. If someone doesn't repent their cast into the lake of fire & burned up! Read Malachi 4:1-3 . In John 3:16 God uses the word perish which means to destroy. In Rom. 6:23 "the wages of sin is death" And death doesn't mean life in hell. Death is the oppisite of life. Read the last part of Rom. 6:23 Not enough room here but I could go on & on.

God may be a part of all creation,however, we were given free will. You must work hard and have a relationship with God that is continuing, renew yourself in front of God and admit your faults. Those turning a deaf ear and not admitting problems are probably going to suffer in hell.

The Creator would be distinct from His creation as an artist would be distinguished from his self-portrait; although, it is created in his image.
The Creator gives free choice as an act of love because forced love is not love at all; therefore, the Creator allows his creation to choose heaven or hell. In my estimation, the choice to make is obvious.

No, God's not a part of all creation. He made everything & everyone, but He's not in it. He is only in those who accept Christ. For those that do, He sends the Holy Spirit down to live in our hearts - then He's in us. Not before.

No God is not part of His creation. That would be like saying that the painter is as much a part of the painting he created. When in actuality the painting points the veiwer to the artist that created it.
I ask you to read the Bible, take notes, learn what it says. And quite taking the word of man.
God Bless

God does not want you to go to hell!
God knew that mankind needed a redeemer so that they could be brought back into fellowship with Him. "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;" (1 Timothy 2:5). This is why Jesus had to die on the cross. He became our substitute, so we could be forgiven. He took the penalty for our sins, so that we could be FREE! When Christ shed His blood on the cross, He redeemed all those who would come to Him so they could be freed from the curse of sin. The debt of sin has been paid in full by Jesus Christ, the Son of the living God! When you believe in Jesus Christ and invite Him into your life, He washes away every sin you have ever committed.

a person's destiny depends on the kind of actions he performs.
have you ever seen your bank account? well that same account is there with God 0f each and every individual on this planet. just as you deposit any amount in the bank your account gets credited in the same manner as you do deeds your account gets credited or debited accordingly . so its our actions which decide our destiny. heaven and hell are no special places up there it's this planet itself . have you ever wondered despite of God's love for everyone why there is a line between haves and haves not? but this should not be considered as if it's their fate then why help those needy. my frnd you should consider yourself lucky enough that you are the chosen one by the God who has asked you to be his vehicle for helping such people.

Man does not deserve heaven. God is perfectly holy and man is sinful. For this reason God cannot allow man into heaven. However with his sacrifice he gives us the ability to be saved.
Since Jesus lived an immaculate life, he was the perfect sacrifice for all mankind. So those who put their faith in him are able to be saved.
Man was created by God for his pleasure. God wants man to choose to love him. However if man wants to live without God, God lets him and he is sent to hell.

Because we are free born agents. When we come to the knowledge of right and wrong and we choose to do wrong despite what we have been told or know is right then that's on us.
God still loves us when sin, but he doesn't like the sin we do.
