Dear yoyo,
Yes, Jesus Christ is God Almighty. However, "hell" is not an actual place at this present day. "Hell" or the lake of fire will be created at the end of the world when Christ makes His second physical appearance. On that day, sometimes called "the last day", Christ will have to judge all those who never became saved. The "elect" or saved already had their sins paid by Christ so that thye need not to be tried. The non-elect or unsved must stand before the Judgment throne of God and their sins must be enumerated for the apropriate sentence. You see the Lord is perfectly just, so He could not render judgment until a trial is held and the "evidence" produced.

Hell is separation from God. Thus, men have created hell by choosing not to follow God. There would be no hell if all men would be believers in God. So believe in Him now, so you won't have to face separation from Him.

The Bible says He created hell for satan and his demons. Those who will always reject His salvation are "cast" there too, as it says in Revelation 20.
The bible says that if you are not for God, you are against Him, which means you are working for the devil- even though many do not believe they are. John 8 talks about how those who are not walking with the Lord are "of their father the devil"

I fully agree with A Cari, God never intended us for Hell but for Satan and the rebellious Angels,He has given us His Son so that by believing in Him we can avoid Hell and enjoy Heaven.

Hell is separation from God.
The burning is shame.
The thirst is for living water.
Eternal burning and torture is men teaching fallacies and is not scriptural.
I guess you make your decisions base upon mens lies rather than studying God's Word.
HELL IN KJV
One Hebrew word “sheol” is rendered hell. Definition; hades or the world of the dead (as if a subterranian retreat), grave, hell, pit. Three Greek words are rendered hell; geenna, hades, and tartaroo. Definition of geenna; a valley of Jerusalem, used (figuratively) as a name for the place (or state) of everlasting punishment: - hell. Definition of hades; properly unseen, that is, “Hades” or the place (state) of departed souls: - grave, hell. Definition of tartaroo; (the deepest abyss of Hades); to incarcerate in eternal torment: - cast down to hell. Tartaroo is used only one place II Pet.2:4.
Christ teaching the Pharisees in Luke 16:19-31 shows us a separation from God is truly what hell is. The “water” is symbolic for God’s Spirit and love. The word “tormented” means distressed in the Greek, not torture. The “fire” is symbolic for the shame and desire not to be separated from God.
So all who die the first death of the flesh return to God Ecc.12:6-7, but on which side of the gulf do they end up?
Hell is not eternal but is done away with in Rev.20:14-15, called both the second death and lake of fire. This second death is non-existence, for death and hell and those not written in the book of life. This second death or lake of fire is like fat drippings that fall into the fire. Just a poof of smoke into non-existence.
Psa.37:20 But the wicked shall perish, and the enemies of the LORD shall be as the fat of lambs: they shall consume; into smoke shall they consume away.
In my mind what’s worse yet is no memory of you, no tears will be shed for you like you never existed.
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.
So hell is a separation from God and is not eternal torture or burning. Eventually hell will be done away with or passed away and also some souls. Like fat drippings in the fire, a poof of smoke into non-existence, the second death.
