..how can I prepare for hell?
Should I torture myself so that I can start getting used to pain? Should I burn myself?
Seriously, there is no hope of me ever believing that some guy had God powers and rose from the dead. None...unless I smoke tons or weed or do crack. Is spend alot of time reading the Bible and talking to pastors and ministers. Sometimes I just pray. Nothing works.
Should I take up torture or crack?
I'm serious!

deep_blue,
there was hell before Jesus. Plus, I cannot test any religion so any one of them could be true...or worse could be true. Life sucks.

For the record I am not joking and I might be too insane to ever find peace in Christ....or anything. It will take a miracle to get me out of this rut.

Why is it so hard for you to believe that Jesus really existed and that He really was God?
Jesus died on the cross for your sins and rose from the dead so that you could have eternal life in Heaven.
If you do not believe this all I can say is that I will start to pray that you do come to an understanding of the things of God before it is too late for you!

Truthfully I doubt you are serious, pathetic maybe, disgusting definitely, demented sure fire! Crazy, deluded these apply but since I am no psychiatrist, cant give you a proffessional diagnosis. Deranged definitely, I think that you already started on some of that drug stuff already, fried what little brain cells you had left to operate on, and now your trying to figure out a cope out excuse to get out of what you think you dont deserve. Well you are blasphemer a God hater, despised and wicked person -
in all that God sent his Beloved Son to die in your place, to take your sins, which were many, and to take your hell, which you have no idea what it is like to prepare for, so dont start packing an overnight bag try an eternal one - God by His infinite grace meaning his never ending mercy provided the only remedy for your dilema and that is the Man Christ Jesus - he is the only Savior God has authorized for man's redemption forsake him and no amount of crack will help, no amount of lsd or weed will quench the fires of Hell! That has enlarged to swallow you whole to go down into the pit!
Therefore repent of your wicked ways cast your whole being on him and he will have mercy on your soul - else what awaits you none can prepare for it is eternal damnation that follows on your heels.

Not to worry, you'll believe when you see. He doesn't want any one to be lost and I have a feeling he might just get what he wants. Does that mean you should lead a stupid life? Well life answers that question well enough. Be wise my good man and all will always go better. "All things are lawful, but not all things are profitable." Wouldn't you agree? By the way, even the hell believing Baptists had to take hell out of the Old Testament. They didn't admit it, but the Hebrew word obviously meant grave. Using a pagan definition was a grave mistake. LOL

it is hard for some people to believe in something they cant see or hear. Please dont torture yourself. you need to really pray. you need to really pray for God to give you the strenght to believe. Havent you had anything good happen in your life? That was God. Satan is working in you so much right now trying to get you to think that you could never believe in God because that is what the devil wants, he wants all people to believe there is no God so they can burn in hell with him on judgement day. nothing is working because you are not letting it work. Dont spend too much time so worried about it. Pray about it and go with the flow and ask for forgiveness of your sins and God will cleanse you. And try to rebuke the devil out of your life.

Yes, you should probably start get used to the pain you will face. Or you could simply remind yourself that if there is no Jesus, there is no Christianity. Now you saying you dont believe in Jesus, why would you believe in a Hell? I think you might want to go over your faith one more time, to see if you actually do believe, since you have worries of Hell.

If you're asking yourself that question, then you're already supposing that there is such thing as God. Instead of preparing yourself for hell ( and the choices that you're putting up with are not very soft), why don't you try to do good? help people, little children, old people... why don't you instead of preparing to hell, don't you prepare yourself to heaven? torture and crack are one-way-ticket to a miserable world. Think about that.
Bye

~~~derelicto,,, If you don't accept Jesus as your Saviour then why would you accept their other 'concepts' such as Heaven & Hell,,, and their admonition of you as "A Heretic" ? If you are indeed "Serious" then get out of The Church's Influence and begin an Intellectual Exchange of Ideas with people who have An Open Mind and are Freethinkers, not bound by The Dogma of Archaic Institutions. Study the Great Non-Sectarian Philosophers of History. "The Bible is your Bondage"

I know you don't believe but it is possible for anyone to enter heaven. Jesus told the thief on the cross next to Him that he would be with Him (Jesus) in Paradise. So you still have a chance until you die.
No torturing yourself won't even come close to what is in store for those who don't believe.
Think of living for eternity in a active volcano and multiply it by 1000 and it still won't be close.
It's unbelievably unreal pain and anguish.
I pray that God will open your eyes and see His light.

there is no reason to hurt yourself...be patient ... maybe it is not the right time for you... your life is not over yet....just trust that something better is meant for your life than torture or crack..if you are having trouble, it is because your "old self" is fighting against the holy spirit who is trying to lead you.
you do need some personal contact with someone who is a sincere believer, and you also need some postive experiences, which you do not seem to have had yet...I would be happy to talk with you further, if you like...i felt distant from God for a long time also, but He came through for me.

Just keep an open mind, and acknowledge that there's things out there that we have no hope of understanding.
And I know you're just kidding about the self-torture, but never be ashamed of your beliefs, they're not something you can change at will.
