Do you believe all people go to heaven? Do you believe in hell?

Heaven and Hell Exist, This Must Be Believed by All Christians. Reincarnation Does Not Exist Hell is real and people go there. As Pope Benedict XVI stated, "Jesus came to tell us that He wants us all in heaven and that hell - of which so little is said in our time - exists and is eternal for those who close their hearts to " Scripture on Hell: Matt.3:12; Luke 3:17 - John the Baptist said the Lord will burn the chaff with unquenchable fire.

This unquenchable fire is the state of eternal separation from God, which the Church has called "hell" for 2,000 years. Some Protestant communities no longer acknowledge the reality of hell.Matt. 25:41 - Jesus says, "Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels."

Matt.25:46 - Jesus says, "they will go away into eternal punishment" which is in reference to this eternal fire. Mark 9:47-48 - Jesus refers to hell as where the worm does not die and the fire is not quenched. It lasts forever.2 Thess.1:6-9 - the angels will come with flaming fire and the disobedient will suffer punishment of eternal destruction.It is important to note that "destruction" does not mean "annihilation," as some Protestant denominations teach.

It means eternal exclusion from the presence of God. Jude 6-7 - the rebelling angels, and Sodom and Gomorrah, serve as an example by undergoing a punishment of eternal fire.Rev.14:11 - the worshipers of the beast suffer and the smoke of their torment goes up for ever and ever.Rev.20:10 - they're tormented in the lake of fire and brimstone day and night forever and ever. Isaiah 33:14 - "Who of us can dwell in the everlasting fire?

" This is a reference to hell which is forever. Isaiah 66:24 - their worm shall not die and their fire shall not be quenched. We cannot fathom the pain of this eternal separation from God.Jer.15:14 - in my anger a fire is kindled which shall burn forever.

Hell is the proper compliment to the eternal bliss of heaven. Judith 16:17 - in the day of judgment the Lord will take vengeance on the wicked and they shall weep in pain forever. Hell is a place that sinners have prepared for themselves by rejecting God, who desires all people to be saved in God sends no one to hell.

Source Some Papal Documents: Pope Innocent III: "There is but one universal Church of the faithful, outside which no one at all is saved. " (Fourth Lateran Council, 1215.) Pope Boniface VIII: "We declare, say, define, and pronounce that it is absolutely necessary for the salvation of every human creature to be subject to the Roman Pontiff. " (Unam Sanctam, 1302.

) Pope Eugene IV: "The most Holy Roman Church firmly believes, professes and preaches that none of those existing outside the Catholic Church, not only pagans, but also Jews and heretics and schismatics, can have a share in life eternal; but that they will go into the eternal fire which was prepared for the devil and his angels, unless before death they are joined with Her; and that so important is the unity of this ecclesiastical body that only those remaining within this unity can profit by the sacraments of the Church unto salvation, and they alone can receive an eternal recompense for their fasts, their almsgivings, their other works of Christian piety and the duties of a Christian soldier.No one, let his almsgiving be as great as it may, no one, even if he pour out his blood for the Name of Christ, can be saved, unless he remain within the bosom and the unity of the Catholic Church.

First it is not a matter what one believes, its a matter rather what says The Lord. In Matthew 7:13 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: 7:14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. Few folks find God's Kingdom Do you wonder why?

Again in Matthew 7:21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. 7:22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? And in thy name have cast out devils?

And in thy name done many wonderful works? 7:23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. Now Hell I again believe That God "SO" Loved you and me that He gave .. but "IF" I love m enough to keep s commandments then I will love m enough to be there otherwise God will have NO choice but to honor my choice, God is Love and Love can NOT be forced.

IN Rev. 20:14, 21:8 Hell is the second death, the "EFFECTS" of Hell is forever NOT the fire itself yes I understand Hell is real. Now Ghost the Bible is very clear on the state of the dead. John 11:11-14, 1 Thess.4:15-16, John 5:28-29, Eccl.12:7, Acts 2:34, 29 all state The dead know not anything satan and his angels appear as loved ones I have NO idea who this Sylvia is but she is NOT talking to the dead but to satan.

If you believe the Bible, Jesus preached about Hell more than anyone else in Scripture ... Jesus even preached EXTREME MEASURES to avoid Hell! Mark 9:43-48 43 "If your hand causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life maimed, rather than having two hands, to go to hell, into the fire that shall never be quenched -- 44 "where 'Their worm does not die, And the fire is not quenched.' 45 "And if your foot causes you to sin, cut it off.

It is better for you to enter life lame, rather than having two feet, to be cast into hell, into the fire that shall never be quenched -- 46 "where 'Their worm does not die, And the fire is not quenched. ' 47 "And if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out.It is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye, rather than having two eyes, to be cast into hell fire -- 48 "where 'Their worm does not die, And the fire is not quenched. ' Now, most interpreters will say Jesus did not mean that we should literally pluck our eyes out or cut our hands or feet off, yet, even if this passage is meant metaphorically, it still indicates that extreme measures against sin are good things if they help us AVOID HELL!

Christ mself died on a cross to pay the penalty we deserved. If there is no Hell, no great and terrible punishment for unrepented of sin, WHY WOULD GOD's SON NEED TO DIE ON A CROSS? Of course many do not believe in Hell.

Yet, you cannot be a Christian (follower of Christ) and not believe in Hell, He taught about it and DIED to save us from it!.

Since nobody knows for sure, I've decided to believe what makes me happy. First of all, we each possess a soul that must strive for perfection. We are given multiple chances so we have the opportunity to come back for re-dos (reincarnation) Between lives our souls wait in a state that I would call heaven.My graphic for this would be like a giant honeycomb where the souls (think individual cells) who have learned from their life lessons are in close connection and hell is being unconnected and alone.

Ghosts are souls who have not completely transitioned from the earth for whatever reason. When it becomes time to learn more the soul becomes disengaged and eventually the lifeforce of a new human being. The goal is spiritual perfection and to never have to separate again.

Sylvia Brown is talking to herself. This is completely what I want the afterlife to be, since I am getting close to finding out I really wanted to have it settled. I hate to worry about last minute arrangements.

And if I'm wrong-OH WELL.

Heaven or Hell I could tell you what I believe but would it not be better to read the bible and make up your own mind. Would you take advise from Askvillers over the bible? .

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
