I am repeating this question to elicit more responses.

On the judgment day, people will be assigned Heaven or Hell. So all sinners will go to same hell, permanently, irrespective of degree of their sins. OR lesser sinners will go to milder hell and will be transformed to heaven after their term is over ? If it is 'one-size-fits-all' approach, is it not inducement for more sins, because once it is clear that one is going to hell, he/she can dive headlong into more sins, his/her punishment is not going to be increased.

On the sidelines, hell / heaven allocation is going to take place on judgment day, what is current status of hell / heaven occupancy at the moment. Whether people from last judgment day are enjoying their stay over there or these residential complex are under construction at the moment ?

If it is going to be slab-wise, temporary allocation, what do scriptures say about this ?

The Bhagavad-Gita does not agree with the Christian concept of Hell. When the soul leaves the body, he is taken to be judged, where he will be sentenced according to his crimes. We are sentenced according to our own actions, and we are "rewarded" with the consequences of our own actions. While we are being judged, we receive instructions, so that we can correct our behavior. Depending on our crimes, we may have a long sentence in hellish conditions.

For instance, according to the Vedas, a person who commits suicide is sentenced to 10,000 years of wandering alone, after which he must then again receive a human body, to complete that portion of his life that he attempted to escape. Another example is that a king or president must accept 1/6th of the reaction (or Karma) for the sins of his people. When you think about the crimes against humanity of Saddam Hussein, you can imagine that he may have "eternal" hellish conditions to face. But, even Saddam Hussein will eventually pay for his crimes, and be given another chance to advance. What is the purpose for punishment, if not to instruct? If we are to be eternally damned, why not just eliminate us altogether?

For others, such as Jesus Christ, there is no judgement. It is rare, but such a soul, upon leaving the body, goes directly to God. This is because they have transcended reaction. They speak and act only for God, and therefore, they go directly to God.

Why don`t you read the scriptures and find out?

I know that right before you expell your last breath your soul
is already where it will be. Heaven if you are saved and hell
if you are not.
If you are saved, your sins were paid for by the death and
ressurection of Jesus. God the Father sees you as sinless.

If you are not saved by the blood of Jesus, then you will be in
hell. Imagine it being so dark that you cannot see your hand
in front of you. You are standing on a pinnecle afraid to move
because you will fall into an abyss. You hear screams, moans,
cries and realize they are comming from you. You feel like
you are on fire, burning, burning away but still there. And the
whole time knowing that if only you would have accepted
what Jesus did on the cross you could have avoided this
eternal damnation. That is what hell is like. Read it for yourself.

The bible says that hell is eternal,therefore it is forever and permanent;regardless of the amount of sins and a ll that.We are punished disproportionatly to our crimes though technically as God cannot look upon any sin we're not.

do not get stuck up in video games, and also you've gotten no longer some thing to fret about. All video games are creations of delight, yet they are frequently became to powerful leads to case you imagine about them thoroughly and pay interest once you're taking area in them. Hell in elementary words exists with the help of the machinations of Ego and stupidity. you won't be able to pass to Hell if you're humble and position your self interior God's heart and Soul. "choose no longer, lest you be judged. With an same degree you employ, you'd be measured through others." "I and the daddy are ONE." "i'm the reality, the mild, and how. no man or woman includes the daddy except with the help of Me." do not waste a at the same time as taking area in too many video games. loose your recommendations and your soul, and also you'd be high quality :)

Eternal fire is real. Jesus said it was. In fact, Jesus spoke a great deal about hell. It is what Jesus came here to save us from.
There will be a Day of Judgment when all people will face God. Those who are not covered by the sacrifice of Jesus on the Cross will be cast out into hell where they will undergo eternal punishment. "And these will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life" (Matt. 25:46). In this verse, the same word "eternal" is used to describe the punishment of the wicked as well as the eternal life of the believer. The punishment is endless as is the eternal life of the believer. That is why the gospel (1 Cor. 15:1-4) is so important, because it saves people from eternal damnation:

Now I make known to you, brethren, the gospel which I preached to you, which also you received, in which also you stand, 2 by which also you are saved, if you hold fast the word which I preached to you, unless you believed in vain. 3 For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received, that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, 4 and that He was buried, and that He was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures,

Truly, truly, I say to you, he who hears My word, and believes Him who sent Me, has eternal life, and does not come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life, (John 5:24).

If heaven is the destination for man, then why do read of a new earth? Why is earth the universal spiritual battlefield? Man was made for the earth not heaven!
