Jesus and Hell.

A lot of christians have dropped the idea that there is anything like a literal Hell where you'll burn alive for eternity. Nevertheless, Jesus did speak of Hell in Matthew 5:22, and also in Luke. So, what was Jesus referring to?

 

It could be a reference to anything really thsats the funny thing about the bible you can interpret it anyway you like

 

hell is probably very real - we just choose to deny it.

 

Sure, it could be a reference to anything, but if you really believed that, you would have no problem calling me a fool. So, I dare you to call me a fool.

 

Given humankind pre-dates the bible by hundreds of thousands of years. Why would the bibles idea of hell be valid. What is your idea of hell?

 

Some say we are already livin in hell it not a definitive answer

 

Why COULDN'T it be valid?

 

It's one of many ideas, It's hardly original.

 

I like to think that hell is different for everyone. Not nescisarily a lake of fire, but your own personal corner of hell will be whatever torments you the most.

I don't know what kind of Hell Jesus believed in, I've never asked him.
