Understood that there were many scriptures that he posted. Why not pick just a few like whether Sheol is (or was) the abode of both the righteous and the unrighteous or which word Sheol/Hades/Gehenna best represents what you call "hell" which Ken pointed out is not in any of the original languages but is an anglosaxon word.
Or if you are saying that Ken raised some good points and you feel ill-prepared to comment at this stage then I understand that as well.
Unfortunately the tone of this thread didn't start off well. It would have been better if we could have all had a rational/logical discussion (without threats or ridicule).
OK....lets do that.
Sheol is the Hebrew word for the place of torment.
Hades is the Greek name for the same place.
Both talk about the place of suffering where the unsaved go until they are released into the lake of fire.
It is the place described in Deut. 32:2 where the wrath of God burns all of the time.
Now, according to the Scriptures which all of a sudden everyone wants to hear from tell us that Sheol/Hades is divided into TWO areas.
1. TORMENTS
2. PARADISE.
Luke 16:19-26...........
"There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day:
20 And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores,
21 And desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table: moreover the dogs came and licked his sores.
22 And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried;
23
And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.
24 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.
25 But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented.
26
And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence."
Well there it is plain as day.
The rich man could see Lazarus and Abraham but could not get to them.
The rich man was in torments (vs 24....I am TORMRNTED in this flame).------On going, never ending!
PARADISE is the location where Jesus told the thief he would be when he died....."TODAY you will be in PARADISE".
