what do you think hell would be like?

. . . by Kathy A. Smith

A place of weeping and gnashing of teeth - And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth" (Matthew 25:30).

A place of outer darkness - "Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth" (Matthew 22:13).

A place of torments - "And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom" (Luke 16:23).

A place of Sorrows - "The sorrows of hell compassed me about; the snares of death prevented me;" (2 Samuel 22:6).

A place of everlasting destruction - "Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power;" (II Thessalonians 1:9).

A place where men are tormented with fire and brimstone - "But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death" (Revelation 21:8).

A place where fire is not quenched - "Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched" (Mark 9:44).

A bottomless pit - "And he opened the bottomless pit; and there arose a smoke out of the pit, as the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by reason of the smoke of the pit" (Revelation 9:2).

A place of no rest - "And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name" (Revelation 14:11).

It is ultimately a lake of fire - "And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death" (Revelation 20:14).

A place of hopeless of unsatisfied desires - "And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame " (Luke 16:24). The rich man wanted water but could not get any.

A place of hopelessness and suffering - as a woman is about to give birth to a child, many go through painful labor that can last from a few minutes to a few days. But through this painful anguishing time, there is hope that when the child is born this terrible labor pain will subside. Just imagine if you can if that pain was multiplied many times over and you would never have hope of it ever going away forever? You would do anything to die to get rid of the pain, but it would always remain and continue forever and ever and ever. THIS IS HELL!

A place of memory - When a person is tormented with a bitter memory they sometimes may commit suicide as a way out. In hell this is impossible because your spirit will never die, but will always remember how you sold your soul for the pleasures of this short sinful life. You will continue to always wish you were in heaven instead of hell, if only you would have made the right decision.

this is just an honest question. not meant to offend anyone but if it does so be it. a serious question for serious answers

Update:

@mike- i come against that spirit in Jesus name! the same name in which devils know and shutter! the same name that satan is scared to death of!

    Well, i do believe that it is senseless to mention "hell" in so much occasions..AND ALL folks Americans don't do it. Its very generalizing. I am American and we aren't ALL approximately John Wayne. That used to be decades in the past and no longer on this new release. We don't all journey horses and shoot bow and arrow. That is an historic stereo variety of Americans. Its kind of claiming all Brits have dangerous enamel..NOT all Brits have dangerous enamel.. I feel a small populace does..however no longer ALL.

    Indescribable. In a tormenting way. A place to be avoided at all costs and whatever it takes. Revelation 14

    Amplified Bible (AMP)

    9Then another angel, a third, followed them, saying with a mighty voice, Whoever pays homage to the beast and his statue and permits the [beast's] stamp (mark, inscription) to be put on his forehead or on his hand,

    10He too shall [have to] drink of the wine of God's indignation and wrath, poured undiluted into the cup of His anger; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb.

    11And the smoke of their torment ascends forever and ever; and they have no respite (no pause, no intermission, no rest, no peace) day or night--these who pay homage to the beast and to his image and whoever receives the stamp of his name upon him.

    12Here [comes in a call for] the steadfastness of the saints [the patience, the endurance of the people of God], those who [habitually] keep God's commandments and [their] faith in Jesus.

    Hell was made for:

    1] Satan

    2] The Fallen Angels (Demons)

    3] Satan's Children (Those that reject Jesus)

    No man has an excuse.

    Every man was invited to receive God's love. (Salvation thru Jesus).

    Every man was warned of Eternal Torment in Hell.

    There's nothing else we can do.

    We tried pulling (drawing people to Jesus thru love)

    We tried pushing (scaring people thru fear of Hell)

    There's nothing else we can do.

    They have said:

    "...We will not have this man to reign over us."

    Luke 19:14

    We're done.

    Turn your thermostat up full blast and go into a pitch black closet. Vividly picture every stupid thing you have done and imagine that you had the chance for a better existence, you were told of it and warned - but you blew it.

    Imagine doing that for eternity - and that it would only get worse as time goes on.

    Something like Philadelphia PA where the fools run around with guns terrorizing the good people and trash strewn all over the damn place.

    Hell is a beautiful place where you get to live in peace and harmony with Satan and the other gods until you are reincarnated.

    Hell is real. It is described in all bibles but still not believed in by the cults and atheist.

    You live in it every day what else do you think unless you have always been a life sucking burden on society then we live in your hell.

    I think Hell is separation from God. I don't know if it exists or not but I hope nobody goes there.

    ...not too much different than all the other made-up "underworlds" used by religions throughout human history to coerce people into believing. If God was all that great, he wouldn't need the threat of Hell to get people to love him. If he actually existed, no one would be able to deny it.
