YOu seem to have misread the passage - now you wouldn't do that on purpose, would you??
"Then he will say to those on his left, 'Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, I was a stranger and you did not invite me in, I needed clothes and you did not clothe me, I was sick and in prison and you did not look after me.'
"They also will answer, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and did not help you?'
"He will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.'
"Then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life."
Matthew 25:41-46

God says that all liars, thieves, fornicators, adulterers, etc., will end up in hell if they do not repent of their sins and put their faith in Jesus. Christians are simply passing this message on to the world.
If Hitler, or Stalin would have, or even you now, would simply repent (that is to turn away from) of your sins, God will give you the free gift of Grace and everlasting life in his Kingdom.
The only unpardonable sin the Bible speaks of is to blaspheme the name of the Holy Spirit; all other sins will be forgiven.
A murderer will still have to go to prison if he is caught and sentenced, but if he repents of his sin and puts his faith in Jesus he will have the assurance of everlasting life after his physical death.
Again, Christians are only following what God has instructed us to do, and we are to go and preach the gospel to the world. The world hates this message because when a persons conscience convicts him of sin, due to the hearing of the gospel, he will become angry at the messenger, this is a normal reaction from most sinners; I would know because I to once hated this message.
I hope this helps in answering your question. Have a good day.

I don't know where you heard that "Hell is only for the Devil" because that is not what I learned. In fact, Hell is something everyone should fear.....But not if you have accepted Jesus Christ as your Savior. Believe in Him and you will have Eternal Life...but there is more to it than that...you MUST repent of your sin and change the way you live.....

old english folks in making the english bible translated "place of burning and the grave" into Hell cause that's an old word meaning---- to cover--
It was common usage back then --If your roof had a leak in it you would say to your friends "come over next Monday and help me hell the roof (cover the hole ) or this morning I had to hell the kitty that died last night .
If you"ll examine the Bible --its the Lake of Fire that's got a "Reserved" sign on it for the demons (of which lucifer is the chief)--Demons are just wicked rebellious angels
Bob George has a great show on in your area and he covers the forgiveness angle real well --Listen to the radio !

fake. data: Jude a million:4 talks approximately people who use the undeserved kindness of God as an excuse for lose habit. Paul spoke better than as quickly as of the could desire to maintain strolling interior a similar ordinary, to maintain checking regardless of if we are interior the religion, etc. And Jesus himself at Matthew 24:13 (i think of it is verse :13) that he who has persisted to the top is the guy who would be saved.

Actually the Bible states that the devil will not be in Hell, yet he will be in the Lake of Fire. 2 seperate places. People are in Hell now. Once the judgement is cast, then everyone in Hell will be sent to the Lake of Fire.

Hell was CREATED for the devil, but it had to enlarge itself to include the souls of men.
Anyone that does not line up with God's word, according to the Bible, will receive their due.
If you don't believe the Bible, this news would not affect you anyway, correct?

only if they truly repented, repent : means to turn away from sin, make a 360 from it.
sorry to say and I'm not a judge of their souls only God is, but judging their fruits I see no repentance's.
and Romans 1 talks of people being so evil that they are turned over to a reprobate mind.
bottom line only God knows

what!? Right now its for the demons, but later it is for the people as well, after the judgement. By the way Jeffrey Donner claimed to get saved in prison before he got killed. wouldn't that be weird to see him in heaven walking around???

Probably not; although we don't know for sure if he repented before he died, we do know that he committed suicide, so he probably wasn't saved. I think he remained rebellious and unrepentant to the end.
Hell was originally designed for the devil and his angels, but also for anyone who wants to follow him.
