From what I understand, Lucifer was removed from God's sight. Where does all this fire and brimstone come from?

I asked the question because I truly wanted to know how many people think for themselves.

yep, you're gonna burn in hell....lol....No, seriously now, hell is something that was invented to frighten us into towing the line, so that we'd be good and not question the Inquisition for burning people at the stake etc, and torturing confessions out of innocent people in the name of God. All religion is evil, God never invented it, and if there really is a Hell, then we're living in it now, think on....Do you think that you will see more terrible evils after you die? than the evil that goes on somewhere on this planet every second of every day.....

When a soul(you) has been created it never dies.So when you leave this body you will go before the Lord or you will go down into hell but hell is only a holding cell like a jail.God sends no one to hell we enter of our own free will.The reason God created hell is for the same reason we make jails.Where would your criminals be if don't bind them.That's what the gospel is all about teaching you how to escape judgement and recieve forgiveness through Jesus Christ the Lord.It's not a matter of whether you are a good person or not.Lets say you wanted to board a plane what is it that allows you to enter the plane the fact that you are good or was it that ticket they to you to purchase.the world you live in is passing away and God has said He create a new heaven and a new earth.Do you have your ticket friend.Seek Jesus He has your boarding pass.

Who the hell is Lucifer? No one is going to burn in hell. what a load of bull sh**t. Honestly why doesnt everyone just live there lives normally... God is not real just a figment of peoples imagination, cos they are so insecure to live their life without having an imaginery friend... why dont they just go to counselling or get some freinds
And all you people going on about the bible as "Proof" ... how can you prove it was written at that point in time? how can you prove that what is written in the bible is the truth? how can you prove anything... its over 2000 years ago or maybe not? so stop acting for all you know its a scam

The Fire and Brimstone comes from the same place the Heavens and the Earth came from. And no, I cannot give you irrefutable proof that you are going to Hell. That would interfere with your free will. Everybody has the same decision to make based on the same information, and we will all be judged accordingly.

It depends what you will accept as proof. God became man in the person of Jesus Christ and Jesus said, "Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body in HELL" (Matthew 10:28-29).
If you don't believe Jesus, then you won't believe anything, and you will have to take your chances that He was just a big fat liar.
As for Lucifer, hell was made for him in particular. If you disbelive Jesus, then you are like Lucifer, and according to Jesus will join him one day;
"Then he will say to those on his left, 'Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the ETERNAL FIRE prepared for the devil and his angels" (Matthew 25:41-42).

There's not one shred of proof that non-Christians are going to burn in hell. This is a myth that was invented by us Christians to make us feel superior to others who do not follow our way of faith. Brimstone is burning sulphur. It is often a component in the stuff that erupts our of volcanoes. It never rains down from the sky. Neither does fire.

Okay, I'm a Christian. Christians believe in Heaven, and Hell does exist, so does Heaven. People, read Revelations in the Bible.
Le me break this down for you:
Tell me, if there is not one true God, how did this world form, how did space form, how did the FIRST person on earth appear? How did plants and animals, and water appear. Who made the first star. Most people don't understand this because they don't believe in God. God created anything and everything. He (God) gave whoever the idea to create the computer your typing on.
God sent his only begotten Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, on earth to die for our sins. If we don't believe that Jesus died on the cross for our sins, and that we don't repent, we will surely burn in Hell. Have you watched the Passion of the Christ, remember the scene when Jesus was on the cross saying that we WILL be in PARADISE when we die because we accepted him as our Lord and Saviour. There's a whole story about it. Jesus was nearly scourged (beaten) to death. Every lash on his back represents the sicknesses. If we believe and have faith when are sick and say, "By His stripes, I AM HEALED IN JESUS NAME!" Then we are healed, in Jesus name!
This only appeal to people who are Christians. And as Christians, we need to spread the word of God that. We need to live as Christians. That doens't mean you cant do fun stuff! You can live you life for God havin' fun in all the ways.
In order to be a Christian:
Accept Jesus as you Lord and Saviour and BELIEVE IT WITH ALL YOUR HEART! Repent for all the sins you've done (repent mean never do the sin again) Just pray to God to help not sin anymore. By the way, SATAN IS EVIL! He will try to tempt you in doing things that are sinful. He HATE PEOPLE THAT ARE CHRISTIANS. And he's happy that some people aren't because when they die he's going to be torturing them in all ways possible. Once you start being a Christian, God's going to bless you with countless things
Pray to God everyday, it's just like regulary talking.
Try to read you bible everyday.
Commit to a church so you can build a better relationship with God.
Obey His 10 commandments: Here are some:
Do not steal
Do not commit adultery
Do not be jealous
Obey you father and mother
Only serve God, do not serve idols
Those were the classics. Have fun bein' a Christian!
I suggest you repent before you burn up in a baaaaad place.

your faith you have is the kind that has to be proven, trust me every one "Has to "Die you will have your proof then. Everyone who is born has Gods spirit in them, but you have to feed that spirit by reading the wisdom of His words that holds the answer to any question you need an answer too. Seek Him and you will find your irrefutable proof. And that small amount of spirit of God that lives in you is showing in you because it has your curiosity flared up.about Hell. You had better seek the best wisdom own this planet and it is the living Bible before you die. People who don't to me has an IQ of not even being born yet,

Whether you believe it or not the Bible IS the word of GOD. All your answers can be found in those pages. Unless the enemy blocks the truth from reaching your ears. That is also stated in the Bible. I pray right now that you find the truth. Paul one of the disciples of Jesus would travel around crucifying Christians before he knew the truth. He was a tough dude that did not believe. But once he found out the truth, he was one of the most influential people in the Bible. He changed his name and wrote most of the new testament.
Maybe God has a plan to use you in this way.

Well, seeing as your using God and the devil in your question, I shall use them in my answer. Look in Revelation, a lot of it's there, "place of weeping and gnashing of teeth", "eternal fire", all that good stuff. If you believe the Bible, as you obviously do since you believe Lucifer exists, then that should be pretty convincing for you. Good luck finding the truth.
