God’s Word, the Bible, discusses God’s judgment and eternal Hell from beginning to end. In fact, the Bible tells us that most people who have ever lived will be there.
The wicked shall be turned into Hell, and all the nations that forget God. (Psalm 9:17)
And Jesus went about all Galilee teaching…(Matthew 4:23)… Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. (Matthew 7:13-14)
Jesus Christ (God in the flesh) taught more about Hell than any other person quoted in the Bible.
Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire… (Matthew 25:41)
And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in Hell. (Matthew 10:28)

Do I detect a fundamentalist? The proper spelling and correct grammar in this question threw me.

The word “hell” is found in many Bible translations. In the same verses other translations read “the grave,” “the world of the dead,” and so forth. Other Bibles simply transliterate the original-language words that are sometimes rendered “hell”; that is, they express them with the letters of our alphabet but leave the words untranslated. What are those words? The Hebrew she’ohl′ and its Greek equivalent hai′des, which refer, not to an individual burial place, but to the common grave of dead mankind; also the Greek ge′en·na, which is used as a symbol of eternal destruction.

why quote matthew in your question? He wasn't alive when christ was and therefore doesn't know what christ went around saying. As for hell offer some evidence other than the bible (the bible isn't evidence) and then I might begin to take you seriously

If a career theif can say "Yes, you are God and I beleive" and Jesus saves him... then NO, I will be in heaven. I beleive in God, I beleive in Jesus, I beleive in the Holy Ghost. But I plan on raising a little Hell here down on earth before hand. :)

NO! Thank You, Jesus, for what You did for ALL mankind on that cross.
It's so sad that people will deny and reject His salvation. But I've chosen to believe in and live for Him. So when He comes back or if I die, I know that I'll be there with Him in heaven for all eternity.
"Even so, come quickly, Lord Jesus!"

"broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat"
How does that verse fit with these "mega-churches"?

What book did you plagirise this from? Where is the question? I'll go to this Hell place if you want to join me, we can hang out, throw some darts, maybe catch a ball game. What time do I meet you?

It is not for me to know or decide. That's God's will and no man knows God's will or speaks for God. I simply do the best that I can to be a good person and a good Christian.

I will go to hell.
HOWEVER
The people in heaven won't consider it paradise if their friends aren't there. Because of six degrees of separation, I, along with all the other sinners, will eventually be promoted through the pearlies.

There is no hell. We are all God's creation and He made us all as imperfect and so basically, He knows that we are all capable of mistakes. He, as our creator, would never let anything bad to happen in all his creations.
