If such a thing exists. I think it’s a bit of a raw deal actually. Some Christians say you choose your own hell in not following god, but why would I want to choose eternal punishment, for being a good person? I also think its wrong to use god for just a ticket into heaven, I imagine a huge percent of Christians say they believe just for that reason, and for fear of the unknown. I’m just intrigued to know what I will be exactly punished for? I’m not perfect but then again who is!? Maybe I’m in the place I should be, my honesty is my religion.

I don't know whether heaven or hell exist and I never will. The dead don't exactly send postcards. There is one way to discover what happens after death and that is to die. Postmortem is truly an all or nothing situation, when you either discover another existence, or just stop existing.
However, if heaven does exist, I don't believe any religion has a monopoly on it. There are thousands of religions/sects in the world. Some religions realize this and preach that they don't have a monopoly on heaven. For example, Bahais believe in the unity of God and religion, meaning that all religions are fundamentally the same and include some truth. Jews believe the righteous of all nations will achieve salvation, so they have never been a religion of proselytism like Christianity or Islam.

If there is such a thing, wich a personally doubt, i have a different approach on after life, there are no days there. Just eternity. What i remember from a philosophy teacher is that hell in religious philosophy is the state of total lack of communication, of emotional contact, a state of eternal loneliness and despair. All that hot-fire-forks mambo jambo are ofcourse medieval fairytales to scare people. In christian mystics hell was described metaphorically as a place were one is bound to the back of the other and they can never see each others faces. Hell is the allienation of the soul - from humans, god and the universe, from itself and its nature. Huh, it seems that psychology is the new religion after all.

I'd like to share my thought about it with you. Honestly, i don't know if heaven and hell are exist.
I believe in God, I have my religion.
But i think this life sometimes presents good and evil, heaven or hell. Perhaps, things like that keep us to be a better person.
Like if we hurt others, it will be bad.Or, i often say, i'm in hell when i have a really bad day. We're human, we don't really know what is really happening. And sure nobody is perfect. Just believe what's your believe and for good.

once you first awaken your first cup of coffee is decaf. then you certainly determine to bypass to YA R&S and the sole human beings posting are preadolecent self proclaimed atheist who ask inane questions. Then i might wager into the nice and comfortable bath sans the jets and the water besides the fact that if this could be extra useful than the 1st 2. Then at lunch harm going back on YA R&S and searching Shrill lunch troll Atheist post even stupider questions than the preadolecent ones. Then for some pitchfork sitting jointly as be roasting over the flames in basic terms to be fed tofu stir fry over tofu noodles for dinner. Then onto YA R&S to locate that the Atheist all yet very own the area which looks very unusual to you because they consistently swear they're against faith and spirituality. Then off to mattress on your mattress of nails warmed as much as discomfort searing warm. observed by using targets of your formor Atheist pals poking you with pitchforks all night long and you wishing you ought to warn them formerly its too previous due. heavily although. The punishment for sin is dying. everlasting torment is a myth perpetuated by using the sole human beings extra annoying than atheist, evangelical christians who misuse and don't comprehend their very own scripture.

The Bible tells us that Hell will be full of good people. Good works will not spare you from Hell. Only accepting Christ as your savior can do that.
Take the forty mile desert in route to California. Where hundreds of people died. Imagine the hottest desert you've ever seen and find it to be a hundred times hotter. Then magnify that by 10,000 times. That's what Hell is like and there is no escape

I am not perfect either but I am forgiven and redeemed. I therefore will never have to worry about what a day in hell will be like for that is not in my future. I will wonder just how beautiful heaven will be and how wonderful it will be to see my SAVIOR and meet all the old Saints of the bible. What a wonderful day to look forward to when I close my eyes here and open them to the face of JESUS. Don't wait too long to make your choice. JESUS wants you to be with HIM in glory but we were given free will to choose. HE cannot force you but I cannot fathom why anyone would choose to not accept HIS gift of eternal life it is free and the only condition is belief. Choose wisely it will make a difference.

If you could condense the world news onto one page, there would be your picture of Hell. Hell is not somewhere out in space, where it can't be seen. Hell is where corrupt humans are. Hell has a human home.

It's kinda like dying. We didn't ask to be born, Yet we are and therefore must all someday die. I'm sure there are those that will say they don't deserve to die and plan on living forever. We all have our own opinions. To each their own.

Well you have to first understand that GOD is perfect Rightouseness and Perfect Justice. In that alone if he could save us from a mere act of kindness, HE WOULD HAVE.
But.... that is not perfect rightousness and perfect justice.
Therefore he had to send a Savior. If you understand that he can do anything, but is so DIVINE in nature that everything is accountable to justice! If he would just merely accept everyone even though they sinned against him, it would not be JUSTIFIED, you have not done anything to account for your sin. You cannot do anything to "make it up to GOD", he knew this, and he also knew that JESUS could! So he did this, which of course PISSED SATAN OFF, because Satan couldn't think of how he was going to get the world out of this one after what he did with EVE. HE DID.... Satan in turn tried to prevent JESUS from saving us, therefore the temptations... etc... it all makes perfect sense to me.
