What a fun-guy that God is.---He's always setting up those believers, for his knee-slapping pranks. I'm sure he would be a riot , and the life of any party.--- I wish I had his number, so I could invite him to one of my blow-outs. But most people I know, haven't ever seen him around.---Wonder where he hangs out?
Did you hear about the one he pulled on " his chosen people"?---He had those poor Jews wandering all over the desert for, like 40years, looking for some " promised land ". ---What a scream.
I don't even want to tell you about all the crap he pulled on Job.--That poor sucker took years to recover. Good thing that sap had hundreds of years to get over his troubles.
And he writes all his own stuff. ---He cracks me up.

The only Hell that exists is the Hell we create for ourselves. God is creation. We are all responsible for the karma we collect through our lives. To rise above our own Hell is to gain wisdom and let go of past hurts and mistakes.
God is loving creating energy. The darkness can be used as a tool to learn. Not everyone is destined to go to Hell. However, people do make life seem like Hell by dwelling in their own misery and pain. What's worse they do not take responsibility for their actions and blame others for their misfortune. Of course the easiest way people deal with their own negative energy and bad karma is to blame God. But that is ironic, because when you blame God, you are blaming yourselves.

This Verse is talking about people that have already rejected God. He gives us the choice to choose him or not, If a person receives the second death it is from their own doing as God does not want even one to perish,

God made hell for the devil and the rebellious angels. He said that He is not willing that any should perish. He sent his Son to pay the penalty for our sins so that we don't have to go to hell. However if we reject the free gift of salvation, that is our own doing.
God says to those of us who reject Him...
Matthew 23:37......... How often I wanted to gather your children together as a hen gathers her chicks under her wing, but you were not willing!

Those that God takes a strong dislike to, he will exile to Hell, just as sure as you are sitting here.
He has many methods to accomplish this.
If it so happens that God doesn't like you, you might as well accept the the fact you're going to Hell.

I do not believe God is purposely forcing people to go to hell I believe God is allowing us to make that trip on our own, for example: God allowed Pharaoh's anger to build until he felt like he had to murder Moses and the slaves that left is bondage so it was Pharaoh's own hatred that set him on the path to Hell.

better translation--- 11For this reason God sends them a powerful delusion so that they will believe the lie 12and so that all will be condemned who have not believed the truth but have delighted in wickedness.

Hell is part of God's plan. Some people have to go to hell.
