Did God create mankind for a destiny in eternal Hell?
If the majority of people who have ever lived, are alive, and are yet to live, all have a destiny appointed in eternal flames of punishment (as most Christians would suggest), would it be correct in saying that God created mankind for the purpose of filling the lake of fire? Even though it was designed for Satan and his angels?
If the wages of sin is eternal punishment in Hell, then Jesus would have to be eternally punished if in fact He died for my sins. But the Bible says the wages of sin is death which is exactly what Jesus did, died. So how can you say people will be eternally tortured in Hell? Is Jesus presently being eternally tortured in place of those who accepted Him as Lord?
Or is Hell, better known as Hades, and Sheol, just the grave where all dead go, and the only real hope is that of a glorious resurrection into eternal life through Jesus Christ?
Does it make sense that the wicked dead are now being burned and tortured in flames, only to be resurrected again at the white throne judgment to be cast back into the fire? How can there be degrees of punishment if the wicked are already burning, can they be burned any worse the second time they go to Hell?
[Modest] Nice way to dodge all the other questions. Hopefully sincere Christians will open their hearts and look past the "traditions of men".
[Gen] So the little old lady who gave all her things to the helpless and poor, and served at a soup kitchen half her life, and donated to the good will and salvation army, but never picked up a Bible will get burnt alive since 1921 until the end of the 1,000 year kingdom, only to get tossed back into the fire for eternity?
[Suffice] Well, suffice to say, I didn’t even quote any Bible verses, so what are you talking about?
[Wendi888] Curses on thinking Christians! I used to not think, just spew out what I had been taught- the same things that have been handed down through tradition by men, mostly from folk lore and the Catholic Church.
Are you trying to make us think? Good job. Why would we worship a God who even allowed eternal torment, much less created it? God told Adam and Eve what the punishment for sin would be, "for dust you are and to dust you will return." Not a word about torment.
What would burn? We are souls, we don’t have them (Genesis 2:7) and God said our bodies would return to dust. If a body is put in fire it will quickly be consumed, utterly destroyed. One reason the Bible often uses fire to mean total destruction.
All we can do is go by the Bible. Our hope of everlasting life is through the resurrection. Just as Jesus was resurrected so will all those in hell or the grave. How they act after that, whether or not they accept God’s Kingdom and his purposes will determine whether they live forever on the earth or cease to exist forever.
The Bible says that death and hell are cast into the lake of fire at Revelation 20:14. These are conditions, not places, so what is the lake of fire? The verse explains it, "the second death." No resurrection, gone forever. So to be cast into the lake of fire means to never live again. Even Satan and his demons are thrown there. Since spirits aren’t physical beings they don’t burn, it means they too shall cease to exist forever.
God created humans to live forever here on earth. Adam and Eve lost that for their descendants until the ransom sacrifice of Christ Jesus. That didn’t mean God’s purpose changed. Consider Psalms 37:10, 11, 29 : "For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be: yea, thou shalt diligently consider his place, and it shall not be. But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace… The righteous shall inherit the land, and dwell therein for ever." God’s purpose for humans and the earth.
Isaiah 55:11 says: "So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it." Satan and his followers are not going to void God’s purpose, it will happen.

No, hell was created for the devil and his rebellious angels, but hell has widened herself, because man consist on doing evil.

God gave each and every one of us free will. so we, and nobody else, determine where we are going to go when we die by how we live our lives.

you are taking a verse here and a verse there and coming to you own conclusion
Suffice to say… | Feb 02, 2010
No
Man was created to live eternally on earth & that is still what God offers .
Not heaven not hell but his original offer is still there for the taking .
The only hell on offer is eternal sleep in death just as explained in Eccl 9.
