Who beleives that hell and the lake of fire are two different places?

Question

Revelation 20:14
And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death..

Answer 1

the grave is one thing, the fire from heaven is another.

Hades in this verse was translated as "hell",
but it is simply the grave.

Answer 2

"lake of fire" was found 4 times in 4 verses in the New Testament.

Revelation 19:20 - And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.

Revelation 20:10 - And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.

Revelation 20:14 - And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.

Revelation 20:15 - And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.

Answer 3

Hell, and the lake of fire is the same place. Saying lake of fire is just descriptive talk. The first death would be your human, in the grave death, the second is your spiritual death being cast into the lake of fire (hell). Which you don't die you spend eternity in hell. It's like, talking metaphorically.

Answer 4

Hell is different from the Lake of Fire. Hell will eventually be thrown into the Lake of Fire, though.

Answer 5

Hate to break it to you there is no hell where sinners roast and there aint no lake of fire either. Hitler is in the same place as Mother Theresa It doesnt matter how good or bad you are we all end up in the same place

Answer 6

According to the new adaptations (i.e.: stretching of the 'truth') by the church, hell is not full with actual fire. Now, it is a place without god, so the punishment you get is that: being away from your creator. And considering how nagging he's been during my life (IF there is a god, of course) I think I'd hate to have to spend eternity next to him, too. I WANT to go to hell.

Answer 7

that is correct because hades is the grave which is death so when death and hell are thrown into the lake of fire means they exist no more!

Answer 8

Hades is the place where JESUS went to rescue souls that were good and believed in HIM. There are souls still there...

Hell is the final resting place, of torment and torture...

All who are dead in Sin, will be cast there...The second death. Those who are "Saved", (Those who believe and repented and baptised in the name of JESUS CHRIST, will not face the second death), will go to the New Jeruseleum...

I wish you well..

Answer 9

Hell can be described as a separation from GOD not just a physical place.

Answer 10

The Bible is plain and clear as to what "Hell" and the "lake of Fire" represents.
First of all, if we were to look up the meaning of "Hell", we would fine according to the Greek: hai´des or Hebrew: she’ohl´, literally refers to a 'GRAVE' or 'PIT', or most common express as 'world of the dead'. Nothing is said of it as being pugatory or refers to "fire".
An example is that Jesus when he was killed, At Acts 2:25-27, KJ: it reads: “David speaketh concerning him [Jesus Christ], . . . Because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell,* neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.” (The fact that God did not “leave” Jesus in HELL implies that Jesus was in HELL, or Hades, at least for a time, does it not?) (*“Hell,” Dy; “death,” NE; “the place of death,” Kx; “the world of the dead,” TEV; “Hades,” AS, RS, JB, NW.)

Jesus eventually resurrected from grave (hades) as we see also in Rev. 20:13, 14, KJ where others will eventually will : “The sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell* delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire.” (So the dead will be delivered from hell. Notice also that hell is not the same as the lake of fire but will be cast into the lake of fire.) (*“Hell,” Dy, Kx; “the world of the dead,” TEV; “Hades,” NE, AS, RS, JB, NW.)

However, in the case of Revelation 20:10 says that the Devil is to experience ‘torment forever and ever’ in “the lake of fire and brimstone,” what does that mean?
Revelation 21:8 (KJ) says clearly that “the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone” means “the second death.” So the Devil’s being “tormented” there forever means that there will be no relief for him; he will be held under restraint forever, actually in eternal death. This use of the word “torment” (from the Greek ba´sa·nos) reminds one of its use at Matthew 18:34, where the same basic Greek word is applied to a ‘jailer.’—RS, AT, ED, NW.

Who or what goes into the “lake of fire”? Among the things mentioned are the “wild beast” and the “false prophet.” Death and Hades are put into this “lake.” We also read that the Devil (and along with him his associate demons) is hurled into the “lake” after his final attack on God’s sovereignty.—Rev. 19:20; 20:10, 14.

A SYMBOL: In examining these texts we readily see that the “lake of fire” is not a literal pool of flame. The “wild beast” is symbolic, as earlier shown in Revelation chapter 13, the “image” of it being described in chapter 17, where we are told that the seven heads of the “beast” represent seven ‘mountainlike’ kingdoms. These are understood by Bible commentators to be the seven world powers of Bible history. The five that had “fallen” were Egypt, Assyria, Babylon, Medo-Persia and Greece.

Similarly the “false prophet” is not a person, but is a system or an organization. A “prophet” claims to have inspired information for the direction of others. A “false prophet” would mislead others, to turn them away from God and toward false worship. What does this “false prophet” do to accomplish such purpose? He is shown in another guise in Revelation 13:11-17 as a two-horned “wild beast.” As such he is depicted as performing in front of the seven-headed “wild beast” the signs with which he misleads “those who received the mark of the wild beast and those who render worship to its image.”—Rev. 19:20.

Since the “wild beast” and the “false prophet” are symbolic, the “lake of fire” is necessarily symbolic. Further supporting this conclusion is the fact that the abstract thing, “death,” is also hurled into the “lake of fire.” Death cannot be literally burned.

Moreover, the demons are thrown into the “lake.” These are angels, spirit persons. Being spirit, they cannot be hurt by literal fire, which is a physical product of chemical combustion. In fact, we read often of spirit persons manifesting themselves to humans in a flame.—Ex. 3:1-5; Acts 7:30; Judg. 13:20; Ps. 104:4; Dan. 7:9, 10.
Of what, then, is the “lake of fire” a symbol? The Bible says that it is, or that it means or symbolizes, the “second death.” (Rev. 20:14) This cannot mean that everything that goes into it dies a second time, for “death and Hades” have not died or gone out of existence in the past. The expression “second death” distinguishes this death, which is permanent and everlasting and from which there is no resurrection, from the death brought upon the human race by Adam.
The truth that this being put into the “lake of fire” does not mean conscious pain of torment is shown in that the “wild beast” and the “false prophet,” both symbolic of systems or organizations, are spoken of as being “tormented day and night.” But systems or organizations cannot suffer pain. The “lake of fire” annihilates, destroys them. They are restrained from operating, forever. Never will such wicked organizations rise up to dominate or disturb mankind.
Also, death and Hades, mankind’s common grave, are done away with in the “lake of fire,” in that Adamic death will have been completely wiped out and Hades will have been emptied and will receive no more such dead. (Rev. 20:14) Certainly these two inanimate things can feel or experience no conscious suffering, but they can be restrained, put out of the way, forever.
