- Hell is real, but it might not look the way you think.
An eternally burning fire where wicked nonbelievers are tormented forever-this is the image of hell that has long been attached to the Christian religion. But the Bible describes nothing of the sort.
Gary Black explains why hell is not a place of eternal torment and how the Christian world came to that mistaken idea.

They will come in my name the Spirit of great deception..many elect will fall...stay firm saints fixed your eyes upon Jesus..
I hope this man repents before he dies. The human brain can't imagine how horrific his torment will be in hell.
Mark 9:43-48 (KJV) And if thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched:
Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.
And if thy foot offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter halt into life, than having two feet to be cast into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched:
Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.
And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out: it is better for thee to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire:
Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.
In another verse says whole body to be cast into hell. Also Isaiah 66 v 24 which only says corpses not living souls in misery.
*"Where **--their worm--** the maggot that eats their dead body dieth not, and the fire that cremates their dead body is not quenched."* (See Isaiah 66: 24.)
John 5:28
"Don’t be surprised at this; because the time is coming when all who are in the grave will hear his voice" 29"and come out - those who have done good to a resurrection of life, and those who have done evil to a resurrection of judgment."
Again read from the original scripture
Jesus called him by name, Lazarus. It wasn't a parable, people are in hell now. The Bible says that he'll will give up the dead to be judged, meaning that there are people burning there now. Paul said that to be absent from the body is to be present with the lord, so where do you think the children of the devil are going? Hell is more real than this place and it is eternal.
Judgment != Hell
Judgement = Judgement
Lake of fire
Purifying
Destroying all evil. Satan and the beast
Did you know that in the original Bible manuscripts there is no word "hell" and no word which means hell? It appears that there is no such place as hell.
I sure hope you don't believe that and end up there. I wouldn't wish hell on my worst enemy, not even Hitler for that matter
@@rudyferrell *"I sure hope you don't believe that...."* I made a factual statement that is easily confirmed by anyone so inclined. Why wouldn't I believe it?
Jesus says quite clearly...
Rev 14:11 KJV And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.
I think if Jesus says it, He means what He says and says what He means. You can seriously not misinterpret what He says.
Revelation 14: 9-11 is talking about living persons, on Earth, during the time of the antichrist, Cathleen.
@@IsaacNussbaum True
Yes. Also REVELATION 20: 10-15 & DANIEL 12:2
Revelation 20: 10 refers to the devil, the beast, and the false prophet, only. No one else is in view there.
Revelation 20: 15 says that everyone else dies in the Lake of Fire. The Lake of Fire is the "second death," as in dead. All the way dead.
In Daniel 12: 2 it is the contempt that the living feel towards the dead that is said to be everlasting. We dare not turn "everlasting contempt" into everlasting torture.
Jesus also said in the last time false prophets and teachers would come and device many
This man most definitely has a message straight from hell. His torment in hell will be horrific, I hope he repents
You’re absolutely spot on. Everything you said can be verified. Thank you for sharing.
Sir, your teaching is false and it seems you are a last days preacher who teaches what people want to hear and not what the Living God want us to hear.
He that has an ear to hear what the "Spirit" of the Lord has to say... this is truth and there is more. He didn't say there was no Hell, only that we need to be clear about what Hell is and how it is!
*"He didn't say there was **--no--** a Hell...."*
Dead people are within the grave awaiting the resurrection.
Then why did Paul say that to be absent from the body is to be present with the lord? And if hell, the sea, the grave etc are to give up their dead to be judged then exactly what are they doing in hell right now? Kicking back drinking lemonade? Don't believe this man and this lie straight from hell
@@rudyferrell Hell ------- the grave ------- hades ------- sheol ------- not some place of ever burning, fiery torment.
The Bible shows that the dead are asleep within the grave until the resurrection ------- and that their not conscious in either heaven or hell. To from Ecclesiastes 9 5-6 and v 10, to Job 14 to 10-15, the Bible shows that the dead have no awareness of or no knowledge of ------- their surrounds and are comatose within their graves ------- until the resurrection.
The doctrine of the immortality of the soul is a lie as the Bible states that the soul is mortal and can die.
The soul is capable of perishing.
But there is coming some future Gehenna fire that will burn the wicked to ashes ------- not torment them for forever and ever.
To the dead live again through the resurrection but they are not conscious or alive ------- now ------- today.
To currently the dead are sleeping within their graves until the resurrection.
@@rudyferrell Paul says in 1 Thess 4:13-18 that those who have fallen asleep (dead in the grave) will be resurrected and join those who remain alive at Christ's second coming. Paul further comments in Heb 11:40 that those that have lived in ages past that were called in this lifetime will not be made perfect apart from us. John in Rev 20:1-6 mentions that those who have part in the FIRST resurrection are blessed and holy... there is more than one resurrection!!!! Verse 5 of the same chapter confirms that the second resurrection will occur at the end of the millennium. The second resurrection will be for those who have not been called in this life and when they are resurrected to physical life and will be offered an opportunity to learn to live God's way and have access to God's spirit dwelling in them (Isa 65:23). Stop building a doctrine off a single scripture.
@@rudyferrell The dead sleep within their grave until the resurrection.
This teaching contradicts the teaching of Jesus in
Mark 9:43-48 (KJV) And if thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched:
Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.
And if thy foot offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter halt into life, than having two feet to be cast into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched:
Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.
And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out: it is better for thee to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire:
Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.
"Not quenched" means the fire can't be put out; it does not mean the fire will never go out.
@@martinlohne5128don't get it twisted, hell will be eternal. This wicked man is twisting the words of Jesus to fit Satan's agenda
It is better to humble ourselves before God and go on our knees and say to the Lord our God 'LORD I don't know, please guide me in your truth.'
Fortunately, we _can_ know about hell. The Hebrew and Greek manuscripts do not contain the word "hell" or any word which means hell.
If demons and Satan get to torture and torment humans in hell for eternity, where's their punishment? They get to continue doing what they've being doing with much enjoyment since the garden, only in hell they will have no restraint.. sounds like a reward for them, not punishment.
We know that's not true though, the Bible is clear that Satan will be turned to ashes in front of mankind to see.
@Perseverance4477 Good point!
Revelations 14:11
And the smoke of there torment ascendeth up for for ever and ever: and they have NO REST DAY NOR NIGHT, who worship the beast and his image, and whomsoever receiveth the mark of his name.
I honestly wish that it was like this, because God is good
So is his justice
Thank you so much for the podcast.
The Bible teaches eternal punishMENT but not eternal punishING in Gehenna/lake of fire/hell. These people won't live again and therefore their punishment is everlasting. It's not something that will be experienced every second, a continuous torment..a punishING.
Again, thank you for the work you are doing as a team.
*"The Bible teaches eternal punishMENT but not eternal punishING...."* Yes! Amen!
12 And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.
13 And 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.
14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.
*...and death and Hades gave up the dead....* Rev. 20: 13; NIV)
_"[Hades is] a Greek word used to denote the state or place of the dead. All the dead alike go into this place. To be buried, to go down to the grave, to descend into hades, are equivalent expressions."_ ~Smith's Bible Dictionary
Thank for the truth! If only people would listen!
Thank God that the people who truly know Jesus don't believe this garbage.
Ezekiel 18:20
"The person who sins is the one that will die - a son is not to bear his father’s guilt with him, nor is the father to bear his son’s guilt with him; but the righteousness of the righteous will be his own, and the wickedness of the wicked will be his own."
The full jewish bible if you want to teach truth read from the original scripture. Not something that been changed.
This teaching stole your subscription from me
Ja confusing
Thank you Jesus....
A soul does not naturally die like flesh man dies. A soul has to be destroyed. That happens at the second death.
The first resurrection has already begun. It is written of in Matthew chapter 27, around about verse 52, and in 1Peter chapter 3 & 4.
People need to study for themselves.
You are right. In addition the soul that isn't destroyed until the second death is sleeping and knows nothing until the resurrection.
@@martinlohne5128 I do not agree that the soul sleeps. We instantly go before the Lord for judgment. That started at Matthew 27:52, 1Peter 3:18-20 & 4:6
@@peterjennen99 Mathew 27:52 God brought those believers back to life to expound what Christ did for us. it was a sign like the darkness covering the earth, the earthquake, and the veil being torn in two. the first resurrection occurs at the return of Christ and they will reign with Christ for one thousand years here on earth. the second resurrection occurs after the Millennial reign ie the white throne judgment.
@@peterjennen99 Here are some verses showing the soul sleeps.
"For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten. Also their love, and their hatred, and their envy, is now perished; neither have they any more a portion for ever in any thing that is done under the sun." Ecclesiastes 9:5-6 from the King James Version (KJV).
"Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave, whither thou goest." Ecclesiastes 9:10 (KJV).
"His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; in that very day his thoughts perish." Psalms 146:4 (KJV).
Here are your verses.
"And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose," Matthew 27:52 (KJV).
There's nothing wrong with that verse. The saints had died and their souls were sleeping and unaware of anything. Their bodies were resurrected with their then awake soul just like what will happen when Christ comes the second time. One of the meanings of "soul" is man's mental processes. God keeps a memory of a person's mental processes when the person dies in a sleeping state and restores it to a new body in an awake state at the resurrection.
"For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit: By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison; Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by water." 1 Peter 3:18-20 (KJV).
There is no problem with that passage. Jesus was put to death in a flesh and blood body. At His resurrection he was quickened (brought to life) by the Spirit (Holy Spirit) and it was "by" the Holy Spirit that he had preached to the "spirits" (you could also say souls because in this context "spirit" means mental processes) of wicked people who had died in the flood.
"For for this cause was the gospel preached also to them that are dead, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit." 1 Peter 4:6 (KJV).
Once again, no problem. There are MANY people whose bodies are dead but whose spirits (mental processes) are sleeping who were preached to while their bodies were alive and their spirit (or soul) was awake. God keeps a memory of each person's mental processes and restores those processes to a body in an awake state at the resurrection.
Here's one more text for you.
"And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly;" 2 Petter 2:5 (KJV).
Noah was a preacher of righteousness and the Holy Spirit preached through him to the wicked people who had died in the flood. It was through the Holy Spirit that Christ spoke to them through Noah.
@@johnsauvola I’m sorry, your belief does not align with the all of Scripture. Do you believe Jesus resurrected on the feast of first fruits and left the fruit in the earth?
We are at the times of grace period (book of Revelation) anything is bound to happen if you know your bible by heart keep to it and believe in it, don't listen to what others say, Matthew 4:4 it is written, man shall not live by bread alone but by every word that proceeded out of the mouth of God, so brother and sisters to understand the word of God you've got to study it and believe in it and memorised it by heart so if anything like this arise you already know the truth..
Have to agree as that's exactly what I was taught as a child
If you were taught that there is a hell and that it is eternal, there you were taught the truth
You were so close. Great opening until you got to lake of fire from Revelation. If you understand preterism it makes a ton more sense. This happened in 70 AD. Now that we have come to that conclusion, you need to revisit devil, demons, and satan, because most don't understand those things as well and have totally created doctrines around something that is not even close to what is said in the Bible.
Preterism is the worst heresy ever
I think either you are trying to alter the truth or the spirit of deception at the work
it's all right there in the bible m8.
@@johnsauvolayou need to learn the Bible again from some gud preacher, not like this so-called teacher
Learn the Bible from Derek Prince or bully Graham
Don't learn the Bible to satisfy your ego
I don't learn from Sunday keepers for they are as blind as fools.@@AnuragKumar-zk8ug
Thank you Life Hope and Truth ,for always giving the truth
This is lie straight from hell. Hell is more real than this place and it most definitely is eternal. Jesus said so himself.
You don't get to choose where you go, as Romans 9: 16 18 says
16 So then it depends not on human will or exertion, 2 but on God, who has mercy. 17 For the Scripture says to Pharaoh, “For this very purpose I have raised you up, that I might show my power in you, and that my name might be proclaimed in all the earth.” 18 So then he has mercy on whomever he wills, and he hardens whomever he wills.
I'm for one am going to the grave and not live ever again and I can't wait.
I've had over 60 years on this evil world and I'm done with it. What's made my life Hell?
Religion and governments.
We're all going to live forever. The soul is eternal
Im sorry but this makes zero sense against the word
The way I understand the lake of fire is as described in Rev 19:20 " ..day and night for ever and ever" here is the text "And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever."
Rev. 19: 20 refers to three beings and to those three, only, Dan.
Thank you everyone at Life, Hope and Truth for these powerful Biblical truths that so many people refuse to acknowledge nor accept... that, like Napoleon Bonaparte's perhaps most famous quote rings true: "Man [People] will believe ANYTHING AS LONG AS it's not in the Bible (Emphasis added throughout)." Take care and God bless!
@@liviamarchetti2218 Hell is the grave and there is no remembrance of God for those in the grave for they are dead.
@@liviamarchetti2218 How do you come up with hell from that verse??
" the smoke of their torment shall ascend forever"..."neither have they rest, day or night"
Revelation 14: 11 is neither talking about hell nor eternity. It is talking about living people, on Earth, during the time of the Antichrist.
@@IsaacNussbaumYes!
@IsaacNussbaum thank you for your thoughts. If it's only about living people during the antichrist, why does it say forever. And fuel is what makes fire smoke, right?
@@IsaacNussbaumit doesn't say that. But I guess you can make it mean whatever you wish. You will see...
@@rudyferrell *"it doesn't say that."* It most certainly does.
Idea of eternal torment is based on immortal soul doctrine, and unsaved don't have immortal souls.
*"... unsaved don't have immortal souls."* That's right. The term "immortal soul" does not appear anywhere in the Scriptures.
Keep believing that.
What about the word sheol?
That’s what he mistakenly said grace lol.
Thank you so much for the truth
Truth ?
Truth? Exactly what video did you watch?
To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord...Spiritually. not in a body as Jesus until Jesus Second Coming!!
I find it interesting that in order to teach the going-to-heaven abomination, people like Arlie here have to A) take 1 Cor. 5: 8 out of context and then B) misquote it. Naughty, naughty, Arlie.
Thank you, it is very appreciated. Your explanations are clear, which is rare occurrence these days...
You mean to tell me that you can't see how this man twisted the Bible to fit his own agenda?
Garry, l think need to restudy the bible prayerfully. Your teachings is just appealing to the human and to his spirit and will lead many to the eternal hell you are disproving. Understand canal man can't understand the things of the spirit since they are discern by the spirit of God.
Also l believe this is another teachings of the new age kingdom.
It is a message straight from hell
Therefore
When we die
It's the end
Nothingness
There's no eternal joy called
Heaven
Just
Nothingness
God doesn't send people to hell. The word says that our sin separate us from God. We have the power to choose between life and death. Hell is real its where there be gnashing of teeth... Torment. Be not deceived.
He must be J W that's what they teach.
Jesus taught about hell more than anybody.
*"Jesus taught about hell more than anybody."* I wish you people would quit saying that. It is not true. Jesus did not say one word about hell. The original texts does not contain the word "hell" nor any word which means hell.
He's not a JW even though JWs also teach soul sleep.
Here is what you need to do.
1. Use the King James Version (KJV) of the Bible.
2. Get an English dictionary like Noah Webster's 1828 American Dictionary of the English Language.
3. Get a concordance. If you make a search containing the words "king james pure bible search" you will find an app that's extremely useful that I've downloaded on a variety of Macs and Windows machines and, last I looked, it's FREE!
In order to understand Hell you also need to understand death first. Here are some things to understand.
1. "Soul" and "spirit" in the KJV have different meanings depending on the context. One of their meanings is the intangible element of a human being we would call mental processes or intelligence. When the body does, God keeps a memory of all that constituted a persons mental process in a SLEEPING state until the resurrection. Depending on the context in which it's used, a "soul" can also mean a person.
2. The word "hell" can mean the grave or the hot place depending on the context in which the word is used. Only God can destroy the soul, meaning the record of a person's conscious thoughts, in the hot place after the resurrection of the wicked and their final judgment.
3. After the resurrection of the wicked, they are judged and then destroyed forever in hell or as it's also called the lake of fire. They don't burn forever.
So called teachers
I think you have some things mixed up! Jesus spoke a lot about Hell! There is a literal Hell where people will go who don't accept Jesus.
*" Jesus spoke a lot about Hell!"* That is a common misconception, Wayne. The original words for "hell," attributed to Jesus, were "hades" and "Gehenna." Neither of those means a place of eternal conscious torment.
@@IsaacNussbaum
Then why did Jesus say they were a place of eternal torment in the New Testament!
@@waynechason5855 *"Then why did Jesus say...."* The phrase "eternal torment" does not appear anywhere in the Scriptures, Wayne. Here are the results from an online search of thirty-three different translations.
*Search results for "eternal torment":* _No results found._
@@waynechason5855Well He didn't. Hell is the grave not a place of eternal, conscious torment.
@@waynechason5855 Where did Jesus say there was a place of eternal torment?
Wether hell is there or not I don't care at least am sure that Jesus and Satan are there and I choose to be with Jesus not Satan.
NOT ENOUGH ENOUGH TO SHOW what you hoping to get across.
Short answer is: no, absolutely not. Have a great day.
Great job of presenting God's truth!
You spelled Satan wrong..
God don't torch nobody, that's the road they traveling leading them there, that's why God came in the flesh and was tormented fir us, that we wouldn't have to go there,,
That's not what Jesus said
@waynechason5585 it's not a "place" at all; therefore certainly not literal. In the gospels where Jesus is alleged to speak of it....he never does! He says "hades" and sometimes He says "Gehenna"... however according to the kjv translators and you; He says "hell". When the book of James says "hell" once.. James actually said "Gehenna". When Peter spoke of false "Tartarus"; the translators said "hell". Referring it to what they believe to be a a "true" place while translating a false (place) word. You are supposed to know better! Hell is indeed false doctrine. Hell belief...is an insult and and a dishonor to God and conflicts with the gospel. Jesus death on the cross was sufficient for thr forgiveness of all sin. "Belief" plays no role in our sin being forgiven. Beief only plays a role....in that we belief our sins have been forgiven..... forgiveness is a done deal happened before we believed. Our belief gives us assistance
Hmmm interesting, all Christian’s today believe in hell.. how about all those people who claim to have been in hell and the torturous descriptions they give? Based off this video it makes them all liars? So confusing
*"all Christian’s today believe in hell."* Actually, many of us don't believe in hell. The original texts do not contain the word "hell" nor any word which means hell.
The concept of a soul being cast into some place to burn for eternity because they didn't accept Jesus ass their messiah was invented by the early church as a means to scare people into accepting their new pagan religion. This concept can not be found anywhere in the original Hebrew Tanach (Bible) or Judaism. The concept of a soul existing for eternity in some heaven is a pagan idea and can not be found in the Hebrew Tanach or Judaism. I was a very devote Christian growing up but when I started reaching adulthood and started questioning what I was taught to believe, I started looking for believable answers. Like if everyone who lived before Jesus, including Avraham, Isaac, Moses and the Hebrew Prophets, had their souls cast into an eternal hell because he hadn't been born yet. Also if someone born after Jesus but never heard of him also had their souls cast into hell. Most of the ministers and priest said yes. Others said they didn't know. I was told most of my questions were a matter of faith and could not be proven. The more I studied Christianity the more unanswerable questions I had. Such as what kind of a loving god could cast one of his creation's souls into some eternal hell? To me a god like that is evil and should not be loved or worshipped. By the time I was twenty I had completely rejected Christianity and its Dogma. But I could not accept there is no Creator. A few years later I stumbled upon what the original Hebrew Bible and Judaism taught. It was quite an awakening for me. The more I studied Judaism the more things made sense. When I reached 28 I decided to convert and went through an Orthodox conversion. So coming from my background I know move about Christianity and Judaism than the average Christian. What Heaven and hell really look like czcams.com/video/krZjoGM1iSM/video.html The soul and the afterlife czcams.com/video/YzFUXKk2B4I/video.html Are Christians going to Hell? czcams.com/video/-sCcuwE1gy0/video.html Most people accept what they are taught because it is all they have been exposed to in their cultures. Who should understand who and what G-d is, the original Hebrew Scriptures, or anything concerning the Jewish Moshiach and Judaism than the People G-d revealed himself to in person gathered together in one place and taught who and what he wanted in his own voice and through his Prophets?
You are teaching heresies, you are telling ignorant people to continue with their sin because according you and what you are teaching, there no judgement after death. There is hell ,hell is a place of torment. Stop deceiving yourself and deceiving others.😢
Sam, did you know that there is no mention of eternal conscious torment anywhere in the Old Testament? That represents roughly two-thirds of human history. Did God fumble the ball in that regard?
@@IsaacNussbaumwell Jesus said there was

Hell is forever suffering, it is mentioned in several verses in the Bible. Read the Bible.
*"Hell is forever suffering"* The lost cannot suffer forever because they are not going to live forever. Only saved people will be given eternal life (i.e. live forever).
