Question

what dose the bible say about hell

Answer 1

Hell is the place where, the souls of those that never accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, will end up after judgement.
God doesn't send people to Hell; it is the choice of people to go to Hell for not having accepted Jesus Christ, while they were living.
Hell is a place of "fire and brimstone (sulphur)", where there is only weeping and gnashing of teeth.
Please understand that there is a point where children cannot be held accountable for their lack of knowledge about Jesus Christ, due to age and level of understanding and comprehension.
Make a mental note of this MAJOR POINT:
Aleister Crowley ( a Satanist involved in Freemasonry), was lying in bed in a coma, minutes before he died. Right before he perished, he "came to", sat up, and with a look of terror upon his face said, "IT'S TRUE!" Then he died.
Aleister had believed that there was no such place as Hell, as do so many other people.
Please don't let another moment go by without accepting Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior. No one is better than anyone else, and anyone can be saved, so don't let your past impede your future.

Answer 2

The Bible talks about hell as a place where dead people go. It says nothing about them being conscious there. In fact it says when a person dies, his thoughts do perish. It also says that hell will be destroyed in the Lake of Fire. It defines the Lake of Fire as the 2nd death. Do not be misled by hysterical reactions to Dante's Inferno. It was not based on scripture.

Answer 3

The discription the Bible gives of hell comes from the lime pits that were placed outside of most cities where the bodies of mostly poor people were thrown as burial was only given to those who could afford it or were more upper class.

Answer 4

Lake of fire
Bottomless pit
several levels each descending level being worse than the ones above
It never runs out of room;it increases with every lost soul that enters
Whaling and nashing of teeth
and many other things

It's not a place you wanna be or go or visit.

Answer 5

The English translation is arguably misguided on might stages. The Hebrew phrase Sheol has been mentioned to intend hell as used within the Bible, but it surely honestly has a few viable meanings. It is a "Hebrew phrase of not sure etymology (see Sheol, Critical View), synonym of "bor" (pit), "abaddon" and "sha?at" (pit or destruction), and possibly additionally of "tehom" (abyss)."

Answer 6

It calls it the Lake of Fire a lot. I dont think you are able to see in Hell. However, all you have to do is ask for forgiveness of your sins and believe that Jesus died and ressurected for you, and that he is God.

Answer 7

The concept of Hell that is taught in many churches today is not what the bible teaches and a quick look at the original meaning can clarify this along with other words that get confused in with it. Let me share with you....

We find the word “hell” in various translations of the Bible yet in the same verses of different translations we read “the grave,” “the world of the dead,” and so forth. Those words are from the Hebrew the word she’ohl′ and its Greek equivalent hai′des, which literally mean the common grave. One other word from the Greek, ge′en·na, the bible uses as a 'symbol' of eternal destruction. All 3 of these words have been translated 'Hell' by many translators. So why do they use two different meanings as the same? Answer..... Basically this was done to promote the pagan view that hell is a place inhabited by demons and where the wicked, after death, are punished and torment. This teaching has no biblical support therefore when people try to reconcile these adopted pagan views with bible teaching there is much confusion.

Let me show you what I mean~
Does the Bible say that the wicked go to hell? Yes
Ps. 9:17 KJ: “The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.”

Does the Bible also say that the good people go to hell? Yes
Job 14:13, Dy: “[Job prayed:] Who will grant me this, that thou mayst protect me in hell, and hide me till thy wrath pass, and appoint me a time when thou wilt remember me?”
(God himself said that Job was a good, God fearing man (Job 1:8) so if Hell is a place of torment, why would he send him there?)
Acts 2:25-27, KJ: “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, at least for a time, does it not?)

So here you can see the bible is teaching both Good and Bad (including Jesus) go to Hell..... or should we say the grave?

Does anyone ever get out of the Bible hell? Yes
Rev. 20:13, 14, KJ: “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 all 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) See also John 5:28, 29

Sadly, as you can see, many Translators have allowed their personal beliefs to cloud their work instead of being consistent in their rendering of the original-language words. For example: (1) The King James Version rendered she’ohl′ as “hell,” “the grave,” and “the pit”; hai′des is as both “hell” and “grave”; ge′en·na is also translated “hell.” (2) Today’s English Version transliterates hai′des as “Hades” and also renders it as “hell” and “the world of the dead.” But besides rendering “hell” from hai′des it uses that same translation for ge′en·na. (3) The Jerusalem Bible transliterates hai′des six times, but in other passages it translates it as “hell” and as “the underworld.” It also translates ge′en·na as “hell,” as it does hai′des in two instances. Thus the exact meanings of the original-language words have been obscured.

Where did the concept of hell come from if not the bible?
“Of all classical Greek philosophers, the one who has had the greatest influence on traditional views of Hell is Plato.”—Histoire des enfers (The History of Hell), by Georges Minois, p50.
“From the middle of the 2nd century AD Christians who had some training in Greek philosophy began to feel the need to express their faith in its terms . . . The philosophy that suited them best was Platonism.”—The New Encyclopædia Britannica (1988), Vol 25, page 890.

The truth?
As we can see, everyone goes to the grave when they die. The concept of a Hell and torment forever is an adopted pagan concept not a biblical one. Whether a person is designated for heaven (Rev 5:10) or for the earth (Ps 37:11,29; Mt 5:5) the grave is a person's first point of call before a resurrection for as the bible says:
(Acts 24:15) . . .and I have hope toward God, which hope these men themselves also entertain, that there is going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous. . . (also Lu 14:14)

The scriptures at Rev. 20:13,14 clearly show that God will remove or throw Hell (grave) into the lake of fire to be destroyed after it is emptied. Think to yourself. If God is a God of love, would he make those who sinned for a few years suffer in eternal torment forever? In fact, the bible clearly shows that such a concept has never come into his heart (Jer 7:31). And it would not be fair or just for God to burn a person forever for a few mistakes in his short lifetime. Nor would our God want us to serve him out of fear, that does not harmonize with freewill or Love. Simply, God has shown symbolically by the lake of fire that all evil and those practicing it will be removed eternally without hope of being resurrected after that time. The Grave ( translated Hell by some versions) is simply that, the place from which all good and bad persons who have died will be resurrected.
