What is Hell?

  The Question:  What exactly is hell?  

The spiritual, and the afterlife, it is layered like a Divine Comedy.  In 2012, I was a life long Christian, who had been in sin.  I was part of a Protestant, Non-Denominational Church.  I believed I had been saved.  I had not been.  In 2012, I was going to hell.  Heaven is oneness with God.  The only way to heaven is through the Grace of God, and The Lord Jesus Christ. 

The Spiritual is a reflection.  Name some of the ugliest things you can think of?  Dying on the cross would be horrible.  Someone like Saint Bartholomew he was also skinned alive.  Vlad the Implayer, he impaled men on poles through the anus.   That is a bad one.  Atheist Richard Dawkins, he wanted to eat people.  That implies some dark things.  Heaven and Hell are reflections.  Given people wanted the good things of God, they follow the words of the Lord Jesus Christ.  

God is a King.  God has a dungeon.  Hell would be God's dungeon. 

Jesus Christ, when he died on the cross, he went down into Abraham's Bosom.  Abraham's Bosom was the "better part of Hades." It was where the righteous dead were.  Jesus, with his life death and resurrection, he allowed for man to be reconciled with God.  What is heaven?  Heaven is oneness with God.  God is Holy and separate from sin. 

October 2013, I received a calling from God.  I was fortunate.  I was saved by God's Grace.  I had been a sinner.  I needed to confess my sins, and work through some things to come closer to God.  This would be a process called Sanctification.  I did things like confess my sins, publicly,  in ways that didn't bring more harm or hurt.  Confession of sins is important.  Did I hurt someone being in sin?  I may have found that person, and apologized.  This was a long process.  Prior to October 2013, I had been going to hell.  

There are different ways someone could be in the presence of God.  Isaac means laughter.  God promised Abraham and Sarah a son.  God did not say when.  When Abraham and Sarah finally had a healthy baby boy, they may have laughed.  They were old.  They were experiencing God, and seeing prophecy fulfilled. 

The angel said to him, “I am Gabriel. I stand in the presence of God, and I have been sent to speak to you and to tell you this good news.  (Luke 1:19) 

To be in the presence of God, like someone is in God''s Courtroom, a sinful man may have died.  He may have been thrown to the ground, and writhed in pain, by God's Righteous anger.   Gabriel stands in the presence of God.  This suggests "No sin."  I suppose, that has been my goal.   That is, standing in the presence of God. 

Heaven is Oneness with God.  The only way someone goes to heaven is through The Lord Jesus Christ.  Hell is a reflection of something.
