We do not know anything of what we were before our birth; how we were brought in - with or without our consent. In this earth we live a life forced on to us by our social and natural environment. We cannot blame thieving, prostitution and beggary if one is forced into it, when there are no other means to sustain life and to provide for the dependants. Unequal opportunities and exploitation of all types are the orders of the day. The sins are defined and those who corner wealth and resources have their own explanation to justify their sins. Our Holy Books define ethics applicable to all; none observes it. When earthly life is not of our choice and when we commit justifiable sins to live through, how can one be committed to hell if it exists and how do you justify it? A realistic look around us; the life we live and the visa conditions for entry in to heaven, none can be found in heaven - if it exists - except a few in the Management category - how did they enter there?

God is Love. We are God's children. He sent his own son down to earth to die for us so that we can be saved. Logically then, the blood that was spilt is so precious, it encompasses all humanity. To say that there is a Hell insults the sacrifice of Jesus, makes God out to be some torture bent entity (for no one is perfect, we all stumble, we ALL sin). Realisticly, I believe God when he told humans where they go after they die. Ashes to Ashes, Dust to Dust Dudes.
By the way, the ULTIMATE PRICE FOR SIN IS DEATH. Not Hell. DEATH. You don't keep paying, it's not a bank.

I believe in Heaven because I am now a witness to the vast finmament in the sky. Obviously, we have gone to the moon, sent a land rover on Mars, etc. If they exist, why not believe that there is something even further away that God is not going to allow man to explore until God's time.
I belive in Hell because God talks about a place of fire and brimstone. We know, through Science mind you, that in the earth's core you find what? Fire and brimstone. Intensive heat

I am sorry, that you have such a horrible view of life.
I refuse to "cite reasons other than what I have read in the Bible"; as a reason to believe in Heaven and Hell. Faith and belief can't be 'forced' on anyone!
It is impossible for someone, to worship Yahweh or Yeshua, who do not actually know in their heart, mind, and soul; that the Bible is true.

An atheistic philosopher by the name of Jean-Paul Sarte, said "hell is other people". And he is right. For those who, by that sacredness of their freewill, choose to reject God, they get confirmed in an eternity with others who made the same decision.
The opposite would be like this, God would have to violate your freewill, in order to Force you to be in a heaven you did not want to be in, where your torment comes from having to look at God everyday--when the decision was to be separted from Him.
WHich side will you be on?

I think that the idea of presence of heaven and hell is very soothing for the human soul.Haven't you seen people who did all horrible things got with it while enjoying their lives to the full?Doesn't this make you hope that they get their punishment?Since they didn't get it in life,we wish they get it somewhere else.
The same for people who were not rewarded for their good deeds in life.They will be rewarded in heaven.
It's a question of justice,what you give you get back.

I believe in Heaven and Hell. Where would the devil be if there wasn't a hell and where would all the Christians go if there was no Heaven?

YES!! I believe it in my heart of hearts. Yes, I base this belief on the Word of God as well as miraculous experiences in my life. Wouldn't you rather accept Jesus as Lord & Savior than to take a chance that by rejecting Him you will have to spend eternity in hell?!!

those issues have been carried out by ability of erroneous men who thought they have been doing God a prefer. those have been nevertheless the darkish a protracted time of Christianity IMO. in cutting-edge circumstances there seems to be greater of a shift and a longing in lots of believers hearts to return to the church as God meant it to be, extremely than what guy has made it.
