Question

Answer 1

Hell, like heaven, is not only a state of existence, but a literal, and very real, place. It is a place where the unrighteous will experience never-ending, eternal wrath from God. They will endure emotional, mental, and physical torment, consciously suffering from shame, regret, and contempt.

Hell is described as a bottomless pit (Luke 8:31, Revelation 9:1), and a lake of fire, burning with sulfur, where the inhabitants will be tormented day and night forever and ever (Revelation 20:10). In hell, there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth, indicating intense grief and anger (Matthew 13:42). It is a place “where the worm never dies and the fire never goes out” (Mark 9:48).

Answer 2

If you are talking about the Hell described in the bible, it will be six feet deep by three feet wide by six or so feet long.
All people who die go there, sometimes they have grass on top with a stone that identifies their spot or property. One day soon they will rise from their sleep and have an opportunity to live again.
People all over the earth will be resurrected to life an then have a thousand years to turn around and grow back to the state of perfection that their first father lost. [e-mail]
A word used in the King James Version (as well as in the Catholic Douay Version and most older translations) to translate the Hebrew she’ohl′ and the Greek hai′des. In the King James Version the word “hell” is rendered from she’ohl′ 31 times and from hai′des 10 times. This version is not consistent, however, since she’ohl′ is also translated 31 times “grave” and 3 times “pit.” In the Douay Version she’ohl′ is rendered “hell” 64 times, “pit” once, and “death” once.

In 1885, with the publication of the complete English Revised Version, the original word she’ohl′ was in many places transliterated into the English text of the Hebrew Scriptures, though, in most occurrences, “grave” and “pit” were used, and “hell” is found some 14 times. This was a point on which the American committee disagreed with the British revisers, and so, when producing the American Standard Version (1901) they transliterated she’ohl′ in all 65 of its appearances. Both versions transliterated hai′des in the Christian Greek Scriptures in all ten of its occurrences, though the Greek word Ge′en·na (English, “Gehenna”) is rendered “hell” throughout, as is true of many other modern translations.

Concerning this use of “hell” to translate these original words from the Hebrew and Greek, Vine’s Expository Dictionary of Old and New Testament Words (1981, Vol. 2, p. 187) says: “HADES . . . It corresponds to ‘Sheol’ in the O.T. [Old Testament]. In the A.V. of the O.T. [Old Testament] and N.T. [New Testament], it has been unhappily rendered ‘Hell.’”

Answer 3

Hell does exist. And from what I have heard when you enter hell you go through a cave with bodies inside the walls grabbing out at you asking you to help them...there is a lake of fire and people everywhere...your flesh burns, melts, stings, and smells. Yet it doesn't fall off your bones..it is there for torment. Hell is above and beyond the worse place in the universe. It is torture beyond anything our human minds can comprehend....read the chapters of Revelations in the King James version of the Bible in the New Testament.

Answer 4

Is hell exothermic or endothermic?

First, We postulate that if souls exist, then they must have some mass. If they do, then a mole of souls can also have a mass. So, at what rate are souls moving into hell and at what rate are souls leaving? I think we can safely assume that once a soul gets to hell, it will not leave.

Therefore, no souls are leaving. As for souls entering hell, let's look at the different religions that exist in the world today. Some of these religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, then you will go to hell. Since there are more than one of these religions and people do not belong to more than one religion, we can project that all people and souls go to hell. With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls in hell to increase exponentially.

Now, we look at the rate of change in volume in hell. Boyle's Law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in hell to stay the same, the ratio of the mass of souls and volume needs to stay constant. Two options exist:

If hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls enter hell, then the temperature and pressure in hell will increase until all hell breaks loose.
If hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until hell freezes over.
So which is it? If we accept the quote given to me by Theresa Manyan during Freshman year, "that it will be a cold night in hell before I sleep with you" and take into account the fact that I still have NOT succeeded in having sexual relations with her, then Option 2 cannot be true...Thus, hell is exothermic.

Answer 5

Just like Jesus said, it is a lake of eternal fire, I see it as like the inside of a active volcano. It is a place nobody wants to go. It is real, regardless what some of these little know it all think and say.

Answer 6

There are 162 references to HELL in the New Testament alone, over 70 of those spoken by Jesus Himself.

" He that believes (the gospel) and is baptized SHALL BE SAVED; he that believes not SHALL BE DAMNED ". - Jesus

"So shall it be at the end of the world: the angels shall come forth, and sever the wicked from among the just, and shall cast them into the furnace of fire; there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth". - Jesus (Matt. 13:49)

Jesus called it a literal place of REAL torment.

" For the wages of sin is death, but the Gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ Our Lord". - (Romans 6:23)

Answer 7

The Dante idea of inferno is what the Churches have been using to scare the crap out of people to control masses.
HELL IS NOT A PLACE OF FIRE AND TORMENT.
IT DOES NOT EXIST.

Answer 8

I think it would be an awful lot like Johnny Depps Hell in The Pirates movie where he is surrounded by himself.

Answer 9

sulfur, burning coals that don't go out, flames and torture
prepared for the devil and his angels
you will see forever the thing that took you there and not be able to stop it or touch it

I think outer darkness, would be the pace most would go
pitch black, nothingness, no words or sounds just endless
I think I would scream in terror
lol

but I think the final Judgment is up to God and is is reserved for the most vile of sinners

Answer 10

Probably just like it is here in life. Got some good stuff but there would be the equivalent of your murderers and what not. Similar to what the planet is today i think. No worse.
