Where is this spiritual realm called 'hell'? Is that God's jail he created to punish those who reject him?

Question

So God's jail doesn't abide by 'cruel and unusual punishment' like America? Wow, Even America's founding fathers had a sense of decency!
So where is this spiritual realm, is it in the middle of our tiny dust mite like speck of a planet like the dark age religious nutters claimed?
Is it outside the universe? Will God peak in every now and then through the duration of 'eternity' to see how the souls are going about roasting?

**peek** sp..
like aboo.

Answer 3

Hell is barely the grave, all get out of it and it gets destroyed. Rev. 20:13, 14. devil will in basic terms die, turn to ashes and airborne dirt and dirt on earth and be not extra. Hellfire is a pagan Babylonian brainwashing risk. Ezekiel 28:13-18.... Daniel financial disaster 3, Rev. 17:2, 5, 18:3, 4. Romans 6:23, Gen. 3:19, Eccles. 9:a million-6, 10, 3:18-20, Ezekiel 18:4, 20. Debbie

Answer 4

Hell is the state of reality that is total and complete separation from God. Those who abide there suffer from a condemnation they brought upon themselves by rejection of Him. It exists outside the realm of the physical.

Answer 5

You are thinking in earthly terms - terminology and ideals of the flesh (human). When you are dead your spirit is no longer human.

In fact while you are in your body - YOU - are not human, your deeper self, but yet in earthly terms the human body is you! That can be confusing I guess until you really "think" about it.

We punish people for wrong doing all the time. I have seen people get 20 years for carrying just ONE marijuana cigarette. It doesn't matter whether you or I thinks its an unfair judgment - that was the penalty for breaking the law.

There are countries (think Iran) who will hang you for carrying a Bible or for speaking against the government by way of protest. Does it matter if you or I thinks thats just a wee bit over the edge? NO! Its the law - you break it - you better be willing to pay the price for breaking it. Its very simple to understand this concept.

God has rules. break em and you pay the price. Obey then and you are rewarded accordingly - not always the way you want, but the way God deems best - and the ultimate reward is eternal life - something a human court can not give.

So as you sit on your self righteous seat of judgment against God who holds your fate in his hands.., do you really think your reasoning is superior to the one who made all things including you?

I am not being a bit smarty pants with you - but I am trying to awaken a deeper sense of understanding in you. Most people still don't get it. Are you one of them?

AS FOR HELL....,
Its location is unknown AND Hell is often confused with the lake of fire. The lake of fire from the description sounds remarkably like the Sun. And thats where I believe it is.

Hell is a region presumed to be Under the earth - a hot dark place. However there is the gentile thought of hell and then there is the Jewish thought of hell. The Bible indicates that hell has 7 Compartments each compartment ranging from mild punishment to more severe.. and Paradise was a part of hell - a place not quite of punishment but a waiting place (just like the other segments of hell) for those who lived reasonably decent lives to wait for Judgment day.

On Judgment day - hell releases ALL its denizens to stand before God. Some will go to heaven - 0thers will burn up in the lake of fire. THATS the Bible and not the typical Roman Catholized frame of thought for hell.

Answer 6

The Bible does not teach that there is a literal burning hell. Hell is simply, mankinds common grave. If there were a burning hell, how LOVING would it be for God to put someone there who, lets say, stole a piece of candy. It would be totally against his personification. Also, it would make Him a liar, for the Bible says, the dead are concious of nothing at all. Eccl. 9:5.
This is just another false doctrine.

Answer 7

God created hell for Satan and his angels who chose not to reject God. He couldn't allow them to exist with him. Those who do not accept Him will go there out of their own choice. He loves you and does not want to see you perish in hell. He does not want any to go to hell. He didn't want it so badly that he came to earth and died for the sins of the world so that they could live with him forever.

John 3:16
"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

Answer 8

hell is a self imposed prison that you build around yourself if you have been brainwashed to believe in such things...you will stay in your self imposed hell untill you realize you can get out in the blink of an eye....

Answer 9

I am not sure if you were mocking God or not ,however ,I asked in prayer what hell was like.. that night I had a dream and was shown a place of absolute HOPELESSNESS. May I ask what you hope for? What would your world be like if hope was non existent?What role does HOPE play in humankind?DO you hope for mercy,hope for justice?

Answer 10

We dont know where it is.

We can only assume its not in the current dimension we live in.

Maybe its not created yet and will come around during judgement day.

All I know is, people feed their hell fire with their own actions.

The larger your negativity the larger your hell.

God is everywhere so I dont think he has to peek into hell ...

Answer 11

Hell is the figment of the Christian churches imagination!
"So good people go to Heaven, but what about the bad people"?
"We cannot tell them that their sins will be forgiven"!!!!
So they found a Hebrew reference,"Gehenna", and, "Sheol".
They mixed it with the Greek underworld, "Hades", and made HELL!
So the Christian God is part Greek, eh!
The Bible is written by MAN, not God!
You all should remember that FACT!
