They declare that hell is the grave and that the wicked lifeless easily do no longer go into literal and eternal fireplace to go through continuously. i'd desire to confess that i won't blame them for wishing this have been so. I did while i replaced into lost. Scripture, besides the undeniable fact that, is the factors for fact and not human selection. What does the Bible instruct? It teaches that the wicked would be became into hell and all countries that ignore God (Psalms 9: 17). If hell have been basically the grave because of the fact the Jehovah's Witnesses instruct, how ought to a difference be made here between the wicked and the righteous, for the righteous additionally visit the grave. The "Jehovah's Witnesses" beguile with plenty unlearned communicate approximately translation, affirming that hell is translated from such words as Sheol interior the previous testomony and Hades, Tartarus and Gehenna interior the recent testomony. Now maximum any Bible student knows that that's real, remember, although, that devil by no skill tells a lie with out wrapping it up in a fact. The Jehovah's Witnesses for that reason declare that those words advise the two grave or some temporal fireplace and by no skill eternal punishment. that's the devil's punch line. it is close to adequate fact that the unlearned ought to nicely fall for it and yet it is one hundred% fake. no longer one single time is any of those words that are translated hell interior the Bible, additionally translated grave while talking of a sepulchre, a hollow interior the floor or any resting place of the actual physique, yet basically while relating the state of death. there have been actual graves interior the Bible, yet they weren't one single time talked approximately by employing the Hebrew observe Sheol or the Greek observe Hades. So all their "scholarly communicate" approximately translation is barely a smoke exhibit of the devil to divert interest from the Bible doctrine of eternal punishment. "Jehovah's Witnesses" depict hell as some thing no person might decide to concern. the two hell and the lake of fireplace are held forth in scripture as some thing to be a great deal feared (Rev. 20:14,15). it is talked approximately as eternal torment (Rev. 14:11, Luke sixteen:24 and Mark 9:40 3-40 8). The "Jehovah's Witnesses" the two clarify this all away, ignore approximately it, or declare it to be a speedy, actual annihilation of the wicked, merely which ever is expedient for their reason on the time. They by no skill attempt to instruct any fact from those passages, they only cloud them and abandon them. "JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES or devil'S SALESMEN?

I really appreciate your concern...however, I'm afraid to say you have been mislead by centuries old ministers who had to make up the Hell doctrine to keep fear & control in the church.
You don't think that the bibles translation over hundreds of years is infallible do you? Remember it was MAN who translated it into English. The old Church authorities could put whatever they liked in the bible. Hundreds of years down the line you will see peoples biases. This is why nowadays there are so many different modern translations that are more accurate/factual.
Interesting fact:
The teaching of Hell actually had its roots in paganism.
Did you know that hundreds of years ago the English word Hell did not mean a burning place of torment? It wasn't until the Roman Catholic Christians came to Britain that the words meaning was changed.
Because the Vikings were converted to Christianity centuries after the Anglo-Saxons, the Old Norse hel, from the same source as Old English hel, retained its earlier pagan senses as both a place and a person. As a place, hel is the abode of oathbreakers, other evil persons, and those unlucky enough not to have died in battle. It contrasts sharply with Valhalla, the hall of slain heroes. Unlike the Mediterranean hell, the Old Norse hel is very cold. Hel is also the name of the goddess or giantess who presides in hel, the half blue-black, half white daughter of Loki and the giantess Angrbotha. The Indo-European root behind these Germanic words is *kel-, "to cover, conceal" (so hell is the "concealed place"); it also gives us hall, hole, hollow, and helmet.

Rodney C - Research what the Hebrew and Greek words for hell actually are. You will find they are:
Hades
Gehenna
Sheol
Google them and find out what Hell REALLY is.
Matthew 11:23; 16:18; Luke 10:15; 16:23; Acts 2:27, 31; Revelation 1:18; 6:8; 20:13, 14.
The King James Version translates hai′des as “hell” in these texts, but the Revised Standard Version renders it “Hades,” with the exception of Matthew 16:18, where “powers of death” is used, though the footnote reads “gates of Hades.” “Hades” rather than “hell” is used in many modern translations.
Ask yourself, why did the translators translate Hades as hell most of the time, but as grave some of the time? A bit inconsistent is it not? According to some translations, Jesus went to Hell (the grave)!

Interesting sermon. I will let you know now that a much more fitting place for it is found at http://www.360.yahoo.com. There you can put up your various speeches freely and happily.
Now as for your question, "The Jehovahs Witness say Hell is grave AH AH HELL is Fire. Do they lie about HELL?"
My answer is No. From studying the Bible it is clear there is no Hellfire, at least not in Christian belief.
Consider, Jehovah is supposed to be a loving father. Would a loving father burn his child for sinning, which we all do??
If your answer is yes let me ask this, Shouldn't a punishment befit the crime?? Consider, humans live rather short lives, the longest recording in the Bible for a human living is under 1,000 years. Would it makes sense for actions done over the course of a lifetime to be punished with eternal suffering??
Such a punishment doesn't seem to fit with the image of a loving Fatherly God that the Bible paints.
Hope this helps.
PS You are right about one thing, we, ALL people, do need God's help and blessing.

Part A---"Fact we all need to be saved,.
Part B---For whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved, Ro 10:13"
Part A--U got that right! We All Need to be Saved!!
Part B-- Only Jehovah's Witnesses do this!!!!
YOU should read more...
Do more Research!!!
You even said "if you call your brother a fool you are in danger of HELL FIRE!"
But, YOU just did do just that,
so then you by your own words have condemned yourself to hellfire.
You see,
when you have accurate knowledge,
this doesn't happen!!
Bc such a thing Never! came into Jehovah's heart, EVER.
Hell fire, is a lie and a tool of Satan's organization here on earth.
Hell is the common grave of mankind.
Yes, it is a terrible place to go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My apologies to anyone I might have duplicated. I had a bit of a problem posting this.
================
With respect, Rodney, I'm quite confused. Is your question about our belief in a fiery hell or our belief in Jesus.
Luke 13:3 says all that sin will PERISH not go to "hell"
Hell is also not mentioned in romans 3:23
The lake of fire is a metaphor for permanent destruction. If something is completely burned is doesn't come back.
Please provide the scripture where Jesus says if you call your brother a fool you will go to hell.
Please do meditate on these scriptures and consider how they would mesh with a burning hell
Ezekiel 18:4 - "The soul that is sinning it itself will DIE"... No eternal torment mentioned.
Job 14:13 - "Oh that in She-ol (the hebrew word for Hell) you would conceal me." Job was undergoing tremendous suffering when he said this. Why would he ask to go to a place of permanent torment to escape whatever temporary suffering he was undergoing?
Romans 6:12 - "He that has died as been acquitted of his sins" ... That's pretty self explanatory
Revelation 20:13 - "the sea gave up those dead in it and death and hades gave up those dead them"
Revelation 20:14 - "Death and Hades were hurled into the lake of fire." So is the burning hell going to be thrown into a burning lake? In fact the KJ version says "Rev 20:14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire."
Thanks for listening.

Wanker.
I am not a JW
Ecclesiastes 9:5 the dead are conscience of nothing.
Acts 2:27&31&32 Jesus was raised from Hell.
The problem is you take some scriptures and twist them to your limited understanding.
Hell is the bibles name for the grave. Nothing more.
Please call on god through his son Jesus to show you the light and maybe understand the bible not your false religion .
It's all there in the bible if you ask god to show you not the god of your false so called christian religion.

Hey Rodney,
Quoting a bunch of scriptures without any application, or explanation, is pointless.
Although, I challenge you on Mark 9:48.
Read the context. Jesus was referring to Gehenna.
Are you confusing Gehenna with hell?
Do some research my friend.

Hell comes from Hel, the Norse Goddess of the underworld.
The place you are referring to is Sheol (of the Hebrew Bible), and it is a place of death, separation from God--not a world of eternal torture.

They are right when they say that hell is the grave.Satan often presents half truths.They are of the mind that if you die and your not saved you go to the grave which in Greek means hell.What they fail to realize is that that don't get to stay in hell.
Act 2:27 "Because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell, neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption."
Now here is the verse's that they fail to tell those who are studying with them.
Rev 20:13 "And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and [hell delivered up the dead which were in them:] and they were judged every man according to their works.
Rev 20:14 And death and [hell were cast into the lake of fire.] This is the second death."
Q&A"sQUEEN:This is for you and all that think that soul is not eternal.My God is the creator of everything.He is eternal and all that He creates is eternal as well.You nor the greatest science known to man can dispose of anything.
If you burn it, you get ashes.
Rip it and you will have pieces.
Crush it and you will have sand.
God has made everything and everything is eternal just as He is eternal.

Yes, I've heard what you've heard about their belief of hell. However Jesus speaks of worms and eternal fire, so I'll believe what Jesus teaches. The Bibles clearly states that it's words should not be changed or deleted.
