You believe in God because someone told to believe in God!
That same person warned you about Hell!
I don't think that Selective Believing is allowed!
How about the Virgin Mary?
Yes, hell exists. Jesus spoke about hell more than anyone else in the Bible and He always referred to hell as a literal location. Jesus said it was a place of everlasting fire made for the devil and his angels (Matthew 25:41); a place of weeping and gnashing of teeth (Matthew 13:40-42; 49-50).
Jesus also referred to hell as a place where the worm never dies and the fire is never quenched (Mark 9:43-48).
Since Jesus warns us about Hell we can know that it's a place we don't want to go to. The only way to miss hell is by truly believing on the Lord Jesus Christ - His death on the cross as payment for your sins, and His resurrection (John 3:16-18; Romans 10:8-13). Let His blood cleanse you of all your sins (Colossians 1:13-14). By trusting in Jesus Christ you can KNOW that you will live and reign with Him for all eternity (1 John 5:11-13). Is there any assurance in your reincarnation beliefs?
Please watch this -
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7B4_I4g_rE4. Should you die without Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, you will quickly find out that reincarnation is a lie. Satan, the father of all lies, told Eve the same lie in the garden of Eden (Genesis 3:1-6).
not outside of the twisted christer mindset no
I do not believe, that you , believe in the Lord Jesus Christ!
He himself said there is hell for all sinners!
Matthew 16: 17-18.
And Jesus answering said unto him, Thou art blessed, O Simon the son of Jonah; for neither flesh nor blood hath revealed this unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven. 18 And I also say unto thee, that thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not overcome it.
Revelation 21:8.
" But for the cowardly, and unbelieving, and abominable, and murderers, and fornicators, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, their portion shall be in the burning pool of fire and brimstone, which is the second death."
There are other chapters that talk about hell, in your opinion, will those who do evil enter the kingdom of God?What do you wish to call hell?Valley of Hinnom?In that Dimension of garbage, there will be weeping and suffering! CLEAR?

Additional Data:Now I would like to know if you are from the religious sect of the so-called, Witnesses of the Guardians?Oh! Look at that, their litany is always the same? God cannot punish sinners, because there is no hell? Do they deny the holy scriptures, because hell is written?For what reason did Jesus Christ come down to earth, to preach repentance with His forgiveness, that they might be saved?Well! Then, if this work, according to the Religious, was for nothing, then will all the Wicked and sinners enter the kingdom of God? LOLGod will divide his sheep from the goats, to his he will say, vernite, enter my kingdom, to the others he will say, depart from me, accursed into everlasting fire!
No. There is ZERO evidence that hell exists, just as there is ZERO evidence that any god exists, or "Jesus" or any other mythical religious figures exist. It's all fiction.
Morpheous, you need to read God's Word and you will see of a truth that Hell exists, it IS ETERNAL and there is NO REINCARNATION.
God has already told us that it is appointed unto man to die ONCE and then comes the judgment (Hebrews 9:27) So after that when judgment comes, it means God will make the decision on us - whether He will send us to heaven or Hell.
If you don't believe that you will end up in Hell. Jesus doesn't want that for you. He died to save you from that but He can't help you unless you repent and turn to Him for salvation.
Don't you know that Jesus Christ was God, who came here as a man, in human sinful flesh (John 1:14) specifically so that He could die for your sins, to get your sins forgiven?
That's unconditional love. He died for us when we were still His enemies. But you don't have to be deceived and believe the wrong doctrine.
He's had it written down in the Bible especially so nobody has any excuse for believing incorrectly. God's Word is written and it's directly from His Spirit. His Word is Spirit and it is life.
But He cannot save you unless you be humble and turn to Him and receive Him as your Saviour, because we are all sinners from birth and we are born dead spiritually through Adam's sin and only Christ can make us alive (Ephesians 2: 1 & 5).
Now why would Jesus die for us, if there were no Hell? There would have been no need for Him to come here from His comfort of heaven, to die that horrible death He died for us, if we weren't in danger of Hell in the first place.
So take God's Word, the Bible seriously. Begin to read the book of John in the New Testament and see how Jesus loves you, and suffered for you, shed His precious blood for you as the perfect sacrifice for your sins, and receive Him as Saviour and be saved before it's too late.
Nobody knows when we will die. All; sorts of things happen in this world to snuff out peoples' lives, road accidents, illnesses, diseases such as this virus has killed many who were fit and well.
So don't waste time wondering and choosing to believe a lie.
Believe the truth. Jesus Christ is the TRUTH and HE THE ONLY WAY TO THE FATHER TOO (John 14:6).
His Name is the only Name under heaven given among men whereby we must be saved.
Repent and let God save you, because "He who believes and is baptized shall be saved" (Mark 16:16). You will never regret it.
You are lost. The truth is that death leads to heaven or hell, and the only way to heaven is through faith in Jesus Christ.
The Bible is very clear that no one can earn their way to heaven since good works do not pay for sins. See Gal. 2:16, Rom. 3:23-28, 4:4-5, Eph. 2:8-9, Tit. 3:5. The only way to heaven is by believing in Jesus for His free gift of eternal life. Jesus shed His blood on the cross as the full payment for our sins. He did all the work; all He requires of us is that we believe in Him. Once you believe in Jesus Christ to save you, you are secure forever!
Because we have all sinned against a perfectly holy and righteous God, we all deserve eternal separation from God in hell (Rom. 6:23). However, God loves us so much that He sent His only Son Jesus to die on the cross as our Substitute so we don't have to go to hell. Christ died for our sins, was buried, and rose from the grave three days later (1 Cor. 15:3-4). He gives eternal life freely to anyone who simply believes in Him for it. No one can be saved by doing good works. Salvation is by grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone (Eph. 2:8-9).
"Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life" (John 6:47).
So, what do you mean by "believe in Jesus", if you don't believe what He taught?
Yes. Then you're not a Christian.
I hope to come back as a one-legged duck.
Nothing to do but swim around, and around, and around...
One thing for sure the creator of this universe showed that he can create very hot places like the lake of fire. Second the creator showed that he can suck up light into eternal darkness black holes
So yes I believe in heaven and hell
Jesus Christ is Lord
yes it does...IT IS FOR UNsaved....NOT TOO LATE TO PRAY FOLKS.
someone here does not know that the other fallen angels other than the devil have been in hell for a long time already...
Only in the minds of the deluded and mentally ill.
I believe that evils are in he world,so hell,s also existing.
Well, the pope actually said last year that there is no such thing as hell, for what that’s worth.
Apparently...you don't live in a politically "red" state.
(When you get a little older, you will know what that means..)
Hell does not exist yet, it will be created when there is a need to confine those who are are not going to be allowed into Heaven. that place does not exist yet.
i made a video called " Does Hell Exist?" :
https://youtu.be/ALTjSD1-sRg
In both testaments, hell is the grave, Hebrew sheol and Greek hades. Visit a cemetery.
The bottom line is, there is NO verifiable evidence for god critters…
Or, by extension, their relations, associated product, or domains.

A big fat 'so what' if you believe in Jesus. Satan believes in him too. Judas was authorized to heal the sick and raise the dead, but he loved money more than God.
Jesus spoke about hell 3 times more than heaven (23 times).
When you don't believe him, you're calling him a liar.... that's slander... spiritual treason against your Maker.
Hell is real…. I have seen it with my own two eyes. The ‘hell’ I went to (the night I died) was a deep waterless pit. It was devastating in its loneliness.
Blackest darkness is there.
No hope.
Utter despair.
I knew I deserved it. Only by God’s mercy was I resurrected to new life… eternal life. The ‘old me’ died that night.
If I had died and stayed dead, I would have been there until Judgment Day. Time as we know it, stops, when we die. I would have received exactly what I deserved (…no more and no less….) for all my sins, crimes and evil. God’s desire to show me mercy could not override the need for justice to be done. Want to know how I got out? Jesus took my place there…. because His profound, tender, faithful love; He didn’t want to see me die. He took my place in hell so that I could walk away scott free. What amazing love is this? I am ruined by it.
At Judgment Day, sentencing will be finalized. Everyone will get their due penalty for their sin if they have turned their backs on the amazing offer of mercy that Jesus has give us. No one will complain about how unfair it all is. God is JUST. He is too righteous to let sin go unpunished. He is too kind to ever be unloving. He is too wise to have it even be conceivable for Him to do wrong.
PS. I wouldn’t worship Him if He DIDN’T punish evil.
PPS. There are other ‘levels’ of hell that I did not see. The places where demons have their way with the souls of the unrighteous. Repent today dear reader. Time is running out.
Without turning away from evil and being baptized into a new life in Jesus for the repentance of your sins, how will you escape being condemned to hell?
There is no proof hell exists, and no proof it doesn't exist.
Despite 7 "thumbs-down" for the answerer "One last", they are actually correct.
Belief is NOT knowledge. Belief is a chosen preference.
Belief does not make something true if it actually is NOT true .. but when it comes to religion and doctrine, no one KNOWS what is truth. Because truth is provable, measurable, and first-hand experience that has no alternative explanations. We simply CANNOT know truths about God, rebirth, heaven, hell, etc.
And it doesn't MATTER what is or isn't truth, as long as our beliefs make us a better kinder person. IF the results are good and produce good, then the belief iS good.
And any belief CAN produce good .. OR be used to harm.
Actually, reincarnation was originally part of the Christian teachings. It was thrown out by the synods of 400 to 600 AD, because people weren't taking the Church seriously-enough ... they could always become a Christian in some FUTURE life.
After all ... Jesus was a fanatic .. he never said that all you had to do was believe in him. He was very strict about what you do and don't do, and insisted on self-sacrifice, self-mastery and kindness to all. So no wonder early Christians preferred to defer being a Christian to some future life. But that wasn't bringing in offerings for the Church.
Much of what is taught in Christian churches today has little to do with Christ's teachings and is much more about what serves the Church instead.
And the focus on Paul is very amusing. Paul never met Christ, and his visions sound more like schizophrenia than spiritual illuminations.
At the time of Jesus, MOST religions taught reincarnation. Only one reference to reincarnation remains in the Bible and the rest were later deleted .. when his disciples asked when Elijah would return, and Jesus said he already had (and they knew he was talking about John the Baptist).
The state of spirit existence in hell is described in the Bible, but the human words used fall short of the spiritual dimensions that we cannot experience until we die physically. Jesus spoke most (in the whole Bible) about Heaven and hell. So, you would need to read everything He said to decide if He was raving, or (having come from Heaven) telling us what He knew. Now, if you believe what He said about Heaven, what makes you think you can pick and choose and dismiss all He warned about regarding hell? But that's a New Age tactic - cherry-picking.
Jesus' words on hell - Matthew 5:21-30, 10:26-28, 13:40-43, 18:7-9, 23:15 & 33, 25:41, Luke 12:4-6 & 16:19-31, Revelation 20:7-15
Have you even read them?
Your comment gives rise to the question, "Which version of Jesus do you believe in?" The Bible version is clear that the Word of God came from Heaven to be born on Earth as the man, Jesus, to lead us back to God. But He disagreed with reincarnation ideas, consistent with the rest of the Bible. Please check these out:
Psalm 78:38-39Ecclesiastes 9:3-6, 11Luke 13:1-5John 5:29 & 9:1-5Romans 9:10-121 Corinthians 15:46-482 Corinthians 4:1-6 & 5:10Hebrews 9:27-28Revelation 6:9-11
Yes, it does. Wouldn't it be more meaningful to qualify for Heaven than to know the exact location of Hell? But if you insist, you can find it here (in my reply) if it has not been removed yet. Because all the answers that matter and cannot be refuted are summarily removed.

You can’t play with confidence if you don’t have any; you have to put in the work first. 'Reborns' are notorious for losing themselves in the Word. Just saying…"...be sure your sin will find you out" – Don’t blame me... Moses said it [Numbers 32:23]
Proverbs tells us, "He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy" [Proverbs 28:13]
Reincarnation is a LIE! The New Agers have introduced this lie that you can keep coming back to earth until you get your life right. This keeps people from believing in a personal God to whom we all must give an account.
Can you see why the Truth matters? I hope so…
People who die just simply die and cease to exist. Hell is just the common grave of mankind. The Resurrection is the hope of those who die.
If going to Hell was true that would be incredibly depressing! Fortunately when people die they do not go to hell. Romans 6:7 says “For the one who has died has been acquitted from his sin.”
So from reading that scripture we learn that when we die our sins have been forgiven, paid for with our own life. So if our sins are paid for, what would humans need to be eternally tormented for? And do you think that God would have any interest in torturing humans for all eternity? No way! Jeremiah 7:31 says “They have built the high places of Toʹpheth, which is in the Valley of the Son of Hinʹnom in order to burn their sons and their daughters in the fire, something that I had not commanded and that had never even come into my heart.” Torture is detestable in the eyes of God. In that scripture in Jeremiah God said it “had never come into my heart”. Doesn’t that make you sad that people teach that God would want people to be tortured for all eternity? By saying it never came into his heart he is saying he never even wanted or thought about something like that.
What does it mean to "believe in Jesus"? Jesus quoted and reaffirmed the verse from Deuteronomy 8:3, "Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God" (Matthew 4:4). And we know that Jesus IS God. So the test of "believing in Jesus" is believing in what He said.
Regarding the reality of hell. Jesus doesn’t only reference hell, he describes it in great detail. He says it is a place of eternal torment (Luke 16:23), of unquenchable fire (Mark 9:43), where the worm does not die (Mark 9:48), where people will gnash their teeth in anguish and regret (Matt. 13:42), and from which there is no return, even to warn loved ones (Luke 16:19–31). He calls hell a place of “outer darkness” (Matt. 25:30), comparing it to “Gehenna” (Matt. 10:28), which was a trash dump outside the walls of Jerusalem where rubbish was burned and maggots abounded. Jesus talks about hell more than he talks about heaven, and describes it more vividly. Jesus knew, believed, and warned about the absolute reality of hell. To reject that is to NOT believe in Jesus.
As to reincarnation, Hebrews 9:27 states, "And just as it is appointed for man to die once, and after that comes judgment." So, reincarnation is a fiction, perhaps created by Satan in order to fool people into thinking that there is no hell and that they can do what they want in this life.
"Reincarnation" is never true. Hell is real, eternal torment is real, and everybody can avoid it easily, by believing in the Lord Jesus Christ. The Lord Jesus Christ is God, and He loves you. Believing in the Lord Jesus Christ means being forgiven all sins past and future, and means going to heaven and not hell. Death leads to immediate heaven or hell, and it is too late to be saved, after death. All believers still sin. See 1 John 1:8. To be in heaven and not hell, believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, who is God and who died on the cross and shed His blood to pay for all of our sins in full, and who was buried, and who resurrected from the dead. The only way to avoid hell is by believing in the Lord Jesus Christ, without adding any of your own works. See Romans 4:5, 1 Corinthians 15:3-4, and John 3:16.
What we know about God and Jesus is found in the Bible, and the Bible speaks of a place of eternal torment. So if you believe in reincarnation, then you really do not believe in the Deity described in the Bible at all. You have gone astray from the teachings of the Bible and created your own little god. Good luck with that.
參考: Luke 16:19-31 and Revelation 20:7-15
does this sound like something a god would say? ''believe in me or i'll have burn in hell for all eternity?
there is no reincarnation. there is hell. eternal hell.
The Bible is the written word of God. There is one God, existent in three persons : Father, Son & the Holy Spirit. Father created the world. Because humans sinned, Father sent his Son (Jesus) for our salvation. Jesus bore our sins & died on the cross. Jesus sacrificed his life for you, for me & everyone in this world. Jesus took our sins but the only means of being cleansed from sin is through repentance & faith in the precious Blood of Jesus. And try not to sin anymore. After the death of Jesus, he resurrected & went to heaven. Before his death, Jesus had already told that- after he goes into heaven he would send a helper (The Holy Spirit) for us. So we have to believe in The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit for our salvation.
For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. (John 3: 16,17) Jesus Christ is the way, the truth & the life. No one goes to the Father except through Jesus. ( John 14:6) Believe in the Lord Jesus & you will be saved, you & your household. (Acts 16: 31) Everyone who believes in him receives forgiveness of sins through his name. (Acts 10:43) Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him. (John 3: 36) For there is one God & there is one mediator between God & men, the man Christ Jesus, who gave himself as a ransom for all (1 Timothy 2: 5,6 ) Unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God. (John 3:3)
Hell
Definition: 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’ohlʹ and its Greek equivalent haiʹdes, which refer, not to an individual burial place, but to the common grave of dead mankind; also the Greek geʹen·na, which is used as a symbol of eternal destruction. However, both in Christendom and in many non-Christian religions it is taught that hell is a place inhabited by demons and where the wicked, after death, are punished (and some believe that this is with torment).
Does the Bible indicate whether the dead experience pain?
Eccl. 9:5, 10: “The living are conscious that they will die; but as for the dead, they are conscious of nothing at all . . . All that your hand finds to do, do with your very power, for there is no work nor devising nor knowledge nor wisdom in Sheol,* the place to which you are going.” (If they are conscious of nothing, they obviously feel no pain.) (*“Sheol,” AS, RS, NE, JB; “the grave,” KJ, Kx; “hell,” Dy; “the world of the dead,” TEV.)
Ps. 146:4: “His spirit goes out, he goes back to his ground; in that day his thoughts* do perish.” (*“Thoughts,” KJ, 145:4 in Dy; “schemes,” JB; “plans,” RS, TEV.)
Does the Bible also say that upright people go to hell?
Job 14:13, Dy: “[Job prayed:] Who will grant me this, that thou mayst protect me in hell,* and hide me till thy wrath pass, and appoint me a time when thou wilt remember me?” (God himself said that Job was “a man blameless and upright, fearing God and turning aside from bad.”—Job 1:8.) (*“The grave,” KJ; “the world of the dead,” TEV; “Sheol,” AS, RS, NE, JB, NW.)
Acts 2:25-27, KJ: “David speaketh concerning him [Jesus Christ], . . . Because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell,* neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.” (The fact that God did not “leave” Jesus in hell implies that Jesus was in hell, or Hades, at least for a time, does it not?) (*“Hell,” Dy; “death,” NE; “the place of death,” Kx; “the world of the dead,” TEV; “Hades,” AS, RS, JB, NW.)
Does anyone ever get out of the Bible hell?
Rev. 20:13, 14, KJ: “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. And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire.” (So the dead will be delivered from hell. Notice also that hell is not the same as the lake of fire but will be cast into the lake of fire.) (*“Hell,” Dy, Kx; “the world of the dead,” TEV; “Hades,” NE, AS, RS, JB, NW.)
Why is there confusion as to what the Bible says about hell?
“Much confusion and misunderstanding has been caused through the early translators of the Bible persistently rendering the Hebrew Sheol and the Greek Hades and Gehenna by the word hell. The simple transliteration of these words by the translators of the revised editions of the Bible has not sufficed to appreciably clear up this confusion and misconception.”—The Encyclopedia Americana (1942), Vol. XIV, p. 81.
Translators have allowed their personal beliefs to color their work instead of being consistent in their rendering of the original-language words. For example: (1) The King James Version rendered she’ohlʹ as “hell,” “the grave,” and “the pit”; haiʹdes is therein rendered both “hell” and “grave”; geʹen·na is also translated “hell.” (2) Today’s English Version transliterates haiʹdes as “Hades” and also renders it as “hell” and “the world of the dead.” But besides rendering “hell” from haiʹdes it uses that same translation for geʹen·na. (3) The Jerusalem Bible transliterates haiʹdes six times, but in other passages it translates it as “hell” and as “the underworld.” It also translates geʹen·na as “hell,” as it does haiʹdes in two instances. Thus the exact meanings of the original-language words have been obscured.
The Bible says eternal Hell does exist, plus people coming back from-near death experiences have stated that they went to Hell. The Bible doesn’t support reincartion.
I believe that we will die and be cremated or buried and that, on Judgement Day, God will separate those who honoured Him form those who did not. Some will be sent to eternal life with Christ our Lord and some WILL NOT. There are many different interpretations on what hell actually means but, whichever version is the true one, I don't want to go there and I pray that none of my family will go there.
Hell is the grave in both testaments, Hebrew sheol and Greek hades.
G'bye Y!A/R&S, my old friend. It's been...enlightening.

I believe in karma and reincarnation as well. Also God and Jesus as you do. Some people insist that you cannot believe in those things together. But I tend to side with others like yourself who believe that they are not mutually exclusive. With regards to reincarnation in the Bible, there is the gospel of St. Thomas and the description of the three Magi who determined the time and place of Jesuscas being astrologers, for example. And most, if not all, astrologers believe in reincarnation and karma.
But I don’t think there are tremendous numbers of us in this particular category of believers so I’m pleased to meet you. Too bad we can’t meet in person.
Anyway, for what it’s worth, I think “hell” does exist. On a very real existentialist level. As in the famous saying by the existentialist writer Jean Paul Sartre: “Hell is other people.”. Maybe some people would posit that “existentialism” and “reality” are two different things and wouldn’t understand what I mean by a “very real existentialist level”. However I don’t necessarily believe it’s a contradiction in terms to put it that way...to describe this human experience in such away.
Even if you often question the nature of reality and wonder if this whole human experience is simply some kind of existentialist dream (or perhaps nightmare) the pain is definitely there. And very “real”. The suffering can also feels all too “real”. Of course the pleasure is there as well.
But for the past number of years in my life the suffering has been definitely overwhelming the pleasure. This is the way I see it as a divorced man and father and also the product of a divorced family and somewhat abusive upbringing during my own childhood.
So to get back to your question: Is there a “hell” that we go to after we die? I don’t want to believe that. It kind of goes against my understanding about reincarnation anyway.
Again I don’t understand reincarnation of theory and the theory of “karma” completely but I would like to think that if you’ve ‘paid your dues’ in this particular lifetime by suffering to a certain extent but trying to improve your soul at the same time, that the next time you come around you will have an easier time of it. I don’t know how it works to be honest. This is just my intuitive take on the whole matter. Could be totally wrong.
So by the same token, I suppose if your reincarnated soul has had a particularly bad lifetime due to karmic reasons left over from a previous incarnation ... and I wouldn’t pretend to know how the whole thing works... i guess this human existence can feel like a living “hell”, to one degree or another. I guess that’s my point.
Two different astrologers I spoke with years ago, who knew nothing about the other, told me something about my astrological natal chart which has always stuck in my mind. They told me that according to what they saw in my natal chart, it was very possible I was an oppressive military dictator in a previous lifetime.. And I’ve often wondered if that’s why I seemed to have had such a particularly oppressed existence this time around. (Big Saturn influence in my chart crushing, triple conjunction crushing down my ascendant and my Mars for example. Not too good.)
So who knows? As previously mentioned, most if not all astrologers believe in reincarnation and karma . I guess the “karmic wheel” can be seen in a person’s astrological chart. Something like that. Again I don’t know much about this stuff. But even with my limited understanding of it, it all makes more sense to me than the idea that we’re born once, we die once, perhaps go to “heaven”, “hell”, “purgatory” or whatever...and that’s it. Forever. Nothing else. It just doesn’t really jibe with my experience of this life so far.
So, if you’re an “old soul” surrounded by a lot of “new souls”, I think you’re going to feel like you’re living in “hell” quite often simply because your values will be so much different than theirs are. Their shallowness, superficiality and willingness to engage in mindless cruelty will probably be very hard for you to deal with as an old soul. Kind of like an old dog would be really worn out, irritated and fed up with the mindless, hyperkinetic energy of a little puppy. I don’t know if that’s a good analogy but it’s one that just came to mind. LOL. At least that’s how it is with me.
I’ve been told I’m an “old soul” and I kind of feel it. I try to protect myself from most of the other human beings I find myself living in the midst at this point in my life because I’ve experienced too much of the damage that these rather hyper-materialistic and spirituality superficial “new souls” have caused to my body, brain and spirit due to their ignorance, callousness and general rapaciousness. I don’t know if any of this helps answer your question. It is nice to know there are other people who believe in reincarnation though. Peace. Nice to make your acquaintance through cyberspace. Take care.
Well, why not go all the way? Believe in God, Jesus, purgatory, the communion of saints, and reincarnation all at the same time. That way you're completely covered.
If you don't believe in hell, then you are calling Jesus a liar. Hence you are a false witness and will spend eternity in hell.
You might consider studying God's word, the bible.
Matthew 5:29-30
If your right eye makes you stumble, tear it out and throw it from you; for it is better for you to lose one of the parts of your body, than for your whole body to be thrown into hell. If your right hand makes you stumble, cut it off and throw it from you; for it is better for you to lose one of the parts of your body, than for your whole body to go into hell.
Matthew 10:28
Do not fear those who kill the body but are unable to kill the soul; but rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.
Matthew 5:22
But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother shall be guilty before the court; and whoever says to his brother, ‘You good-for-nothing,’ shall be guilty before the supreme court; and whoever says, ‘You fool,’ shall be guilty enough to go into the fiery hell.
Revelation 14:11
And the smoke of their torment goes up forever and ever; they have no rest day and night, those who worship the beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name.”
2 Thessalonians 1:8-9
dealing out retribution to those who do not know God and to those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus. These will pay the penalty of eternal destruction, away from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of His power,
Revelation 20:13-15
And the sea gave up the dead which were in it, and death and Hades gave up the dead which were in them; and they were judged, every one of them according to their deeds. Then death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death, the lake of fire. And if anyone’s name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire.
Revelation 14:9-11
Then another angel, a third one, followed them, saying with a loud voice, “If anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives a mark on his forehead or on his hand, he also will drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is mixed in full strength in the cup of His anger; and he will be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb. And the smoke of their torment goes up forever and ever; they have no rest day and night, those who worship the beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name.”
Matthew 23:33
You serpents, you brood of vipers, how will you escape the sentence of hell?
Luke 13:24-28
“Strive to enter through the narrow door; for many, I tell you, will seek to enter and will not be able. Once the head of the house gets up and shuts the door, and you begin to stand outside and knock on the door, saying, ‘Lord, open up to us!’ then He will answer and say to you, ‘I do not know where you are from.’ Then you will begin to say, ‘We ate and drank in Your presence, and You taught in our streets’;read more.
and He will say, ‘I tell you, I do not know where you are from; depart from Me, all you evildoers.’ In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth when you see Abraham and Isaac and Jacob and all the prophets in the kingdom of God, but yourselves being thrown out.
Matthew 25:46
These will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.”
Hell exists just like Heaven, it is a Godless place where the souls of evildoers and atheists spend eternity.
For now, yes, it does. But hell is never forever. Rev. 20:12-14 shows that death and hell must both be emptied and destroyed so that the resurrections and final judgment can take place. There is only finite punishment for finite sin. God's love, justice, and mercy are all intact.
For some people I believe it does.
No, hell does not exist. It is an evil creation of Christians. They invented it because the Jews have no such idea in their religion.
Neither god nor Jesus exist.
I find your kind of Christian one of the worst kinds. That is one who claims to be a Christian but picks and chooses which bits to believe and who even introduces ideas from other religions.
The best thing to be is an atheist.
Yes, to religious believers of fictional tales.
The Hell of people burning for eternity no, Adam and Eve’s punishment was expulsion from the Garden of Eden and death. Had they not sinned they would have lived in the Garden for eternity and it spread throughout the earth. The opposite of life is death and they returned to the dust they were before being created.
If you are a Christian you have to believe that the Bible is God's inerrant word.That is all of the Bible.You can not pick and choose.The Bible teaches about hell as eternal punishment.I don't like to believe it but be honest no hell then no heaven either.People indeed believe what they want to believe but much of what we want to believe no doubt is not true.
Yes it does just like heaven does.. we will all fin dout the day we meet God as to where we end up..
It's Only for people who are Jews.
Hello there, I also believe that. Reincarnation means that the soul accept material bodies due to his sins. After one dies he goes to a temporary hell to cleanse some of the sins, then again he is born according to his accumulated sins. To go heaven means to be completely clean from all sins. The problem is every time we born we commit more sins. Jesus can save as long we don't commit any sin.
Hell as a place of torment is a very big lie because this lie dishonors God and scares people. Hell is a grave of mankind, nothing more....
God never thought of torment people in the fire. Think about it: to burn people forever! If someone does something like this nowadays people will say that he is sadist. Satan wants people to think about God that He is cruel and not fair. Satan said to Adam and Eve: “You certainly will not die." (Genesis 3:4). So he invented the lie that people don't die and that their souls live forever!
Why won't God let them die? So God can't end their life, can He? Why they live forever if they are evil? Why God can't end their life? People who believe in lie that fire hell exists, think that God can't eliminate them... No, He can!!! He said to Adam and Eve: "But as for the tree of the knowledge of good and bad, you must not eat from it, for in the day you eat from it you will certainly die."(Genesis 2:17). HE DIDN'T SAY: YOU WILL BE BURNING! No, He say only: YOU WILL DIE!!! If He didn't warn about the fire hell.... was it fair to say: you will die, if don't obey,.. but then put them into the fire? God could not do so! If He said that they would die, it meant that they died and nothing else...
When Jews burnt their alive children in the fire, God was shocked and said: "They have built the high places of Toʹpheth, which is in the Valley of the Son of Hinʹnom, in order to burn their sons and their daughters in the fire, something that I had not commanded and that had never even come into my heart.’"(Jeremiah 7:31). If He said that such mind had never even come to His heart, COULD HE CREATE THE HELL or use it for punishment? No!
And the last.... People are created so that they can't feel anything after their death:
"For the living know that they will die, but the dead know nothing at all,....there is no work nor planning nor knowledge nor wisdom in the Grave, where you are going."(Ecclesiastes 9:5,10). The Bible says that people are the souls, and after death they feel nothing.
And the punishment for evil persons is death. "For the wages sin pays is death, but the gift God gives is everlasting life by Christ Jesus our Lord."(Romans 6:23). Only righteous people can live forever, and all evil people and angels will die, they will not exist anywhere and anymore....
There is an interesting video about hell:

More information about the hell and the soul you can find in the website jw.org
i believe i have been to outer darkness type hell, i have seen different versions, and have seen heavenly things also, absolutely these things exist!
Rom 6:6-8 says those that die in Christ will live in Christ Jesus, those that die, can call upon his name and be saved, but they have to come to judgement
Yes, sometimes it can be here on earth. Ask Derick Chauvin.
where do you think Muslims go because there is No Paradice
yes. but only in your mind
simply no , your not re-incarnation , and there is no hell .. sow me someone who has been to hell or been re-incarnated ..Believes in this , before you are conceived you are nothing and when you die you are nothing .
I believe that hell, or anything, is based off of perception. If you think it’s hell, than it’s hell. If you take it another way, than it’s not hell, it’s something better or worse.
Yes, we are here at last..! What else do you like, we've been in heaven now we are here in hell.
Yes and anyone who doesn't believe and accept in Jesus Christ as their Lord & Savior will end up there.
Ok then you believe what you believe but I have been to heaven and seen my dog 🐶
YES IT DOES AND IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE IT AND THAT IT IS FOREVER, THEN YOU ARE CALLING JESUS A LIAR AND ARE NOT HIS FOLLOWERS, SEE HERE FROM THE HOLY BIBLE, NOTICE HERE WHERE JESUS SAYS THE TORMENT IS DAY AND NIGHT AND NEVER ENDING???
JESUS(GOD INCARNATE) TALKED MORE ABOUT HELL, THAN HE DID OF HEAVEN, PLEASE READ ALL THIS,
The doctrine of hell is so frightening that numerous heretical sects end up denying the reality of an eternal hell. The Unitarian-Universalists, the Seventh-day Adventists, the Jehovah’s Witnesses, the Christadelphians, the Christian Scientists, the Religious Scientists, the New Agers, and the Mormons—all have rejected or modified the doctrine of hell so radically that it is no longer a serious threat. In recent decades, this decay has even invaded mainstream Evangelicalism, and a number of major Evangelical figures have advocated the view that there is no eternal hell—the wicked will simply be annihilated.
But the eternal nature of hell is stressed in the New Testament. For example, in Mark 9:47–48 Jesus warns us, "[I]t is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye than with two eyes to be thrown into hell, where the worm does not die, and the fire is not quenched." And in Revelation 14:11, we read: "And the smoke of their torment goes up for ever and ever; and they have no rest, day or night, these worshipers of the beast and its image, and whoever receives the mark of its name."
Hell is not just a theoretical possibility. Jesus warns us that real people go there. He says, "Enter by the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is easy, that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. For the gate is narrow and the way is hard, that leads to life, and those who find it are few" (Matt. 7:13–14).
Jesus talked about hell more often than he talked about heaven. Here are some verses.
The children of the kingdom will be driven out into the darkness where there will be wailing and grinding of teeth (Mt 8:12).
Depart from me, you accursed, into that eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels (Mt 25:41).
These will pay the penalty of eternal ruin, separated from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power (2 Thes 1:9).
God did not spare the angels who fell into sin; he thrust them down to hell, chained them there in the abyss, to await their sentence in torment (2 Pt 2:4).
The smoke of the fire that torments them will rise forever and ever, and there will be no relief day or night for those who worship the beast or its image or accept the mark of its name (Rv 14:11).

Hell is trying to make excuses to the Great Judge forever and ever. Just beg for mercy and you can leave.
No. Hell is like god and jesus...... made up stuff from man's imagination. Religion is nothing more than an assumed conclusion based on suspect claims from dubious sources supported by logical fallacies nested within circular reasoning bringing you back to the assumed conclusion. Research it.... you will find out for yourself.
The afterlife, in my considered opinion, will be what you expect, at least at first. And I agree that reincarnation is probably an option. It seems to me that the only place where you and I disagree is on the subject of "God" and "Jesus".
