Answer 1

neither do I or any thinking person. Why would a loving God keep someone alive just to torture them? Doesn't make any sense.

Answer 3

Yes, I am familiar with that religion and it is false. Tho they do have many truths. they dont believe in hell because the Bible refers to fire as being all furned up, as ashes.
What that tells me my belief of hell is true. There is a hell, but I dont believe in a forever hell that burns and burns and burns forever. Its burns till it is burnt up and is only ashes. But, oh yes, there is a hell, God tells us and He does use the term FOREVER. but think.. forever, forever is forever till its done. If you get married, and say I will be with you forever. you are, till you are dead and gone. forever is whenever that is up.
But, there is a hell. and none of us want that for ourself, wheter the fire burns forever and ever as many believe, or it only burns till you are consumed and are as ashes. neither seems like a good path to pick to me. I choose Heaven with all its perks.
But, most religions, even false, do tend to have an element of truth to them, this is why they are able to bring in new people. but, God says for every light, there is darkness.
The only full truth is to know Gods word, to believe it and live it. Only He has all the answers. We dont. So get a Bible, study ir, pray about it and know about it well, and make the right choice for God while you still have time.
