I too believe in Hell. I became a Christian when I was 7 because I didn't want to go to Hell. I wanted to go to Heaven and be with my Savior and my family members that also got saved and had died. I also pray that others not only believe in Hell but realize that Jesus died for them so they wouldn't go to Hell. Because if you don't believe in God and you don't believe in Hell, you're still going to Hell and it ain't gonna be pretty. Who would want to be lonely and tormented for the rest of eternity? It doesn't make sense...

Unending Torment or Common Grave?
Since the dead have no conscious existence, hell cannot be a fiery place of torment where the wicked suffer after death. What, then, is hell? Examining what happened to Jesus after he died helps to answer that question. The Bible writer Luke recounts: "Neither was [Jesus] forsaken in Hades [hell, King James Version] nor did his flesh see corruption."* (Acts 2:31) Where was the hell to which even Jesus went? The apostle Paul wrote: "I handed on to you . . . that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures; and that he was buried, yes, that he has been raised up the third day according to the Scriptures." (1 Corinthians 15:3, 4) So Jesus was in hell, the grave, but he was not abandoned there, for he was raised up, or resurrected.
Job prayed for protection in hell
Consider also the case of the righteous man Job, who suffered much. Wishing to escape his plight, he pleaded: "Who will grant me this, that thou mayest protect me in hell [Sheol], and hide me till thy wrath pass?"# (Job 14:13, Douay Version) How unreasonable to think that Job desired to go to a fiery-hot place for protection! To Job, "hell" was simply the grave, where his suffering would end. The Bible hell, then, is the common grave of mankind where good people as well as bad ones go.

David,
You are a Christian. Stop this evil and deceptive form of missionizing. It degrades Christianity.

. It is, by definition, impossible for it to be "jewish" to believe in jesus. "Jewish" is, by defintion, what jews have historically and contemporarily believe. Since in neither scenario do we find "believing in jesus", then we must clearly realize that belief in jesus is not something "jewish". You can call it "biblical" (and still be wrong), but certainly not "jewish".
. On the side, the subject of Isaiah 53 is promised a "long life" and "seed" (i.e. physical children). Clearly this isn't about jesus.
. And Isaiah 7 is clearly not messianic if you read the whole chapter. and "alma" doesn't mean virgin either. You'd know that if you spoke hebrew (I guess it wasn't part of your "extensive jewish upbringing", huh?)
. On the side, Isaiah 9 can't be about jesus since, according to christianity, he's the "son" not the "father" (as the verse states). Nor did he have control of the government (to the contrary, the roman government killed him). And he certainly did not establish "endless peace".

oh, and lastly, I've decided that you truly epitomize everything I find intensely intellectually unsatisfying about christianity. (And you clearly do not understand hebrew.)

Uh, there is not any hell in Judaism. of course you at the instant are not Jewish, as you look to worship jesus. The be conscious used in the Tanakh it particularly is often mistranslated as "hell" is she'ol, which definitely refers to a tomb or grave. whilst this is declared that one is going to "hell" in the previous testomony, it skill to his grave--not a fiery pit of melancholy or some thing. The afterlife is stated in the Tanakh, and this is declared for the time of daily prayers; in spite of the fact that, Judaism specializes in residing the existence you have been given and being close to to G-d--not on sacrificing in this existence to probably be chuffed in the subsequent. people who're righteous will circulate to the backyard of Eden (not the Eden of Genesis); many Jews have faith people who're not will spend a while in purgatory (many have faith there's a time shrink for a manner long you will spend there) formerly shifting as much as Eden. yet, what occurs after does not possibly remember, using fact the finished purpose of being right this is to relish what we've been given. I style of expertise sorry for goyim using fact such somewhat some different religions try to hold forth suffering as salvation, that's lots off the mark. i'm guessing this replaced right into a pointless reaction, on account which you curiously only prefer to badmouth the religion from which yours got here. additionally, i hit upon it humorous that Christians factor to Leviticus 17:11 as accepting jesus or regardless of. Leviticus 17:10-12 refers to sacrificing an animal and the relationship the animal's existence (by blood) has to the offerer's existence. additionally, Leviticus replaced into given to us by making use of G-d extra desirable than a millennium formerly jesus.

WHY ARE YOU STILL HARRASSING TEENAGE GIRLS, 'CREEPY D'? "Amanda" ring any bells?? She seems just your sort...still in school.
Can you REALLY see NOTHING wrong with what you are doing???
You DO realise, don't you, that if you went out on the street and did what you are doing right now, you would be arrested for harrassement!? When a female child asks you to "LEAVE HER ALONE PLEASE" , decent men would do so, NOT keep on "evangelizing" and trying to get her to be one of your "princesses" through your appalling and disturbing means of persuasion such as threats of death and misfortune, sexually loaded conversations, etc.
YOU ARE STALKING CHILDREN. GET A GRIP ON REALITY BEFORE THE POLICE GET A GRIP ON YOUR COLLAR.
Your persistent cut-and-paste style evangelizing serves only to make you a far more sinister and disturbed individual when coupled with your habit of stalking very young females like you are still doing, despite being barred before for similar behaviour.
You're a warped kid, that's for sure...
