'I don't know how someone could live forever.'
Me either. Some people believe that Hell and Heaven are not places but states of mind/soul/brain. Maybe?

Michael is the ArcAngel of God in Heaven.
Before there was a Hell
all angels were in Heaven.
Lucifer is said to be a handsome angel
but he became very vain,
and thought himself better then God.
He decided to raise an army and
Try to overthrow God.
Michael was an ArchAngel.
His name means "light of God"
Michael and his army fought Lucifer
and his evil followers.
God won of course and
Michael threw Lucifer and
his evil angels into hell.
Yes I believe in GOD and heaven and hell. But I dont know all the answers, neither does anyone else. Everyone and every religion interprets the bible in their own way. The most important thing is we believe in God. I dont critisize anyone for their beliefs, I am intreged about each and every religion, based on God and how people worship and praise God.

Only in the way that Milton (of Paradise Lost fame) explains it, which is that both of them exist only in our own minds. I do not believe in a literal heaven and hell. I think that heaven and hell were intended as a metaphor to encourage people to behave well.

Yes I believe in both.
The soul lives forever. Not the body. We can't relate to it because everything in this world has a beginning an end, cycle of birth & death. The closest we can come to understanding it is comparing it with the sun: it has always been there and it will always be there when all of us are gone.

I believe heaven and hell can be found on earth while we are still alive.Some people feel like they are living in heaven while others feel they are living in hell.

I very much believe in heaven and hell. I can also tell you that I will live forever in heaven with my heavenly father. Accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior and you will then understand how you can live forever. JESUS SAVES

i do as a matter of fact. but its not that someone could live forever, its that their soul will be forever punished if you go this place where we all think of as "hell."
even if there is no heaven or hell, i do believe that we will be punished for our wrongdoings and rewarded in a sense for our good deeds.

Yes.
"Our Father who art in Heaven"...
John 3:15
Jesus said, "That Whosoever believeth in Me
should not perish, but have Eternal Life"
Psalm 9:17.
"The Wicked shall be turned into Hell,
and all the Nations that forget God".

I see those as ideas that were invented by human beings during the non-eternal parts of their existence, but recorded on durable media like books and legends.
They do have a certain symbolic appeal because they allow us to think that the good essence of a good person somehow goes on after that person has died and that the bad essence of a bad person gets deserved punishment after death in case he or she didn't get a satisfactory amount of punishment while living.
But in a real, literal sense- no. My grandparents who have died are alive in my memory- what they valued, what they loved, what they taught me. And their DNA is alive in my body. They lived long lives and I think they wanted to rest.
