Revelation talks about Jesus Christ treading the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God, and the blood from nations stain his clothing. Okay, when people make wine they jump up and down on the grapes trying furiously to crush them. So God is furious at those people and hates them more than anything and they wouldn't be able to take his wrath, but they have to becuz they have no choice.
If God can be very creative when making this world and heaven, wouldn't he know how to make extremely terrifying aspects about hell? I think God knows exactly how to make his enemies suffer for infinity

After the end of days, Jesus will kill those unbelievers left on earth... I think you misinterpreted it. And no, he does not. Satan does.

LOL-
What is spoken of in Revelations is yet to happen. The wine press is for the earth.
HELL is not judgment, it is a place for those who might die!
Revelations talks about the tribulation that will soon take place.
After the tribulation Christ will rule the earth for 1000 years, during this 1000 years All will be here From Adams to the last person born.
After the 1000 years comes Judgment, and a Lake of Fire, those judged will be thrown into the lake and Die, become dead, fade to black, blotted out, no more, gone.
none will be tortured ever, even now none are tortured in hell, except by there own mind.

In the Bible in the book of Jude, hell is said to be like Sodom and Gomorrah. These cities burned up and turned to ashes. They will be eternally destroyed. However, they are not eternally burning. God does not eternally torture sinners in hell, but He does destroy them and they cease to exist from that point through all eternity. The present wide-spread Christian belief in a eternally burning hell fire is not found in the Bible. That was a pagan belief that was introduced into the early Christian church just as were many other false pagan beliefs that exist to this day in many Christian churches and are illogical. These illogical beliefs/teachings turn many logical thinking people away from Christianity. Don't believe these lies. Study the Bible for yourself. If you want help understanding it go the website, amazingfacts.org you will find truth from the Bible taught there. God Bless You.

The Allah of Islam enjoys personal torturing of those in hell but the God of Christianity desires that nobody goes to hell. In the most simple terms, hell is a place that is absent from God. Now for those who hate God, that is a pretty good deal.

No God does not torture his people....he loves em all! Everybody has a decision to make (to be a christian or not). It's their choice which one they want to choose. When they choose no, it makes god sad because he doesn't want them to go to hell so sometimes he tries again!
And by the way...the devil had a choice whether he could stay in heaven and still worship god but he decided to rebel...thats why he got what he deserved

Noooooooooooooooo! Did you read it? Blood of Nations??? Not people! Hell is the ABSENCE of God. How can He torture them? Long Distance? People will torture themselves, kicking themselves for their earthly stupidity.

Books like Quran(Mohammad`s book) and Bible are written for people in many years ago who had no logic. But in this century we should believe a mental punishment for persons who omit the rules.

If God created hell to torture those who won't love him, forever, than he is not God. He is not loving. He is limited and can hate. God is omnipresent everywhere, even our hearts.There's no such place as hell, except one we could be making ourselfs on earth.
