Hell is a place of torment and not a place that you can do what you want like on earth. All the so-called fun on earth pales in comparison to Heaven. I believe hell is there to break through people's hardened hearts to get them to repent and acknowledge God for who he is. I wish it wasn't such a bad place but God knows that this is the only way he can get through to some people to save them. I think once a person has stayed in hell long enough or call on Jesus to save them he will get everyone out of there eventually. The people who have had visions and have actually died and went to Heaven say that there are things there better than the best sex and better than any drug, sport or anything on earth!

"Is hell real? Is hell eternal?" Answer: Is hell real? Studies show that over 90% of people in the world believe in a "heaven" while less than 50% believe in an eternal hell. According to the Bible, hell is most definitely real! The punishment of the wicked in hell is as never-ending as the bliss of the righteous in Heaven. The punishment of the wicked dead in hell is described throughout Scripture as "everlasting fire" (Matthew 25:41), "unquenchable fire" (Matthew 3:12), "shame and everlasting contempt" (Daniel 12:2), a place where "their worm does not die, and the fire is not quenched" (Mark 9:44-49), a place of "torments" and "flame" (Luke 16:23,24), "everlasting destruction" (2 Thessalonians 1:9), a place of torment with "fire and brimstone" where "the smoke of their torment ascends forever and ever" (Revelation 14:10,11), and a "lake of fire and brimstone" where the wicked are "tormented day and night forever and ever" (Revelation 20:10). Jesus Himself indicates that the punishment in hell itself is everlasting - not merely the smoke and flames (Matthew 25:46).
The wicked are forever subject to the fury and the wrath of God in hell. They consciously suffer shame and contempt and the assaults of an accusing conscience -- along with the fiery wrath of an offended deity -- for all of eternity. Even those in hell will acknowledge the perfect justice of God (Psalms 76:10). Those who are in the very real hell will know that their punishment is just and that they alone are to blame (Deuteronomy 32:3-5). Yes, hell is real. Yes, hell is a place of torment and punishment that lasts forever and ever, with no end! Praise God that through Jesus, we can escape this eternal fate (John 3:16,18,36)." reference 1
Heaven will be far from boring. No more pain, no more tears, a new body, streets of gold . . . just the beginning of what I look forward to. Rev 21:4 "And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. "
Want to be sure you don't spend your eternity in Hell? Here is a resource that explains how you can be sure: http://www.gotquestions.org/Romans-road-salvation.html
I pray the Lord opens your eyes and heart to His love and salvation before you slip from this life into eternity.

Hell should be cool, depending on the power swells of the demons. It might get fun for six years but the weaker ones with no control on addiction and dangerous claiming behavior will be cast into the flaming pit sooner than never. The angelic order of rebellion is still in contempt by some parts of the Abyss.

What kind of party delights in having bodies that'll withstand the firey flames as did the 3 hebrew boys in the bible in the furnace, yet feel so tormented without God? I don't see the delight in the words "gnashing of teeth", do you? Also, in Luke, read the story of the rich man and Lazarus. Why did the rich man who was in the hellish side of Hades beg for Abraham to send Lazarus, who was on the paradise side, to his father's house and warn the rich man's 5 brothers so that they will not come to this torment place? He didn't indicate he wanted his 5 brothers there with him to PAR TAY! If this is your idea of partying, thank God I've never partied with you and never will unless you take the blinders off your eyes and see the light (Jesus) in this dark world! I guess I'd take the advice of the rich man who gave a true account of living in hell, not your deceptive opinion of hell since you've never been there.

people in hell are asleep
people in hell are awaiting a resurrection
people in hell are conscience of nothing
Jesus went to hell
Job begged to go to hell and Jehovah remember him when it was time.
In conclusion, hell is the grave. Your body dies and is put into the earth. When Jesus calls everyone from the memorial tombs they will rise and we will gladly run to meet them. They will have perfect bodies. It will be a great day for rejoicing.
Then we will all live on earth and learn what Jehovah wants us to do to worship him.
Jehovah never had it in his mind to ever torture a human. He is the God of Love. So the hellfire means after the resurrection some will not be fit to live in paradise for they will not conform to God's standards so they will be eternally dead...as if something were burned it will never come back.
Hell and hades and death will be thrown into the lake of fire. The second death. If you were born and lived your life and died and were resurrected and given 1 more chance and you blew it..you would die a second time never to return...the second death.
It would make sense then for each one of us to examine how we worship and totally try to do God's will now so we can get that reward of living forever on earth.

I’ve heard from reliable sources that the air conditioning system is not the best down there and it can get a little humid. However, I don’t mind taking my vacations on tropical islands, so I suppose I’ll manage. Now let’s go show those xians how a real party looks ;)

HELL: terrible torment of fire and the worm dieth not. But after the Judgement Day of the Lord, Hell is cast into the Lake of Fire for eternity.
IT NOT A PRA TY. BRO.
Luke 16:19 There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day: 20 And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores, 21 And desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table: moreover the dogs came and licked his sores. 22 And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried; 23 And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom. 24 And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame. 25 But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented. 26 And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence. 27 Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father's house: 28 For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment. 29 Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them. 30 And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent. 31 And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.
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.

Hell, as a place of fire and brimstone is a figment of twisted minds. Hell as a place where you are completely cut-off from your soul-source and are unable to learn, evolve and grow, now that's torment, and that's what awaits those who refuse to evolve spiritually, at least until the next round of evolution in this system.
