Is Hell Real or Fiction?
These days a lot is preached against the existence of Hell. Many believe that there is no hell and it was a TOOL used by God, Prophets, disciples and evangleists to stop and sacre people from living a free life. I was flabbergasted to read such an article by a Pastor, who claimed to have surfed more than 4,000 websites and all show that the word Hell is never used in the Bible. I am not a theologian or a scholar but I will use common sense (that is not very common) to explain the need for hell.
Logic
Question # 1Why can’t God just make those He hates disappear?
The answer is too easy, if there is no hell, then all those who have done wrong, would go unpunished. For example, if ther is no hell then Hitler would go unpunished and this would be a great victory for Hitler. He will just be off the hook and many like him, would not fear God and can get away with any act of theirs.
The justice screams out that there is a need for consequences. Ceasing to exist would be the easy answer, but justice is the right answer. Justice not just in punishment, but also in reward. Unfortunately, many believe that everyone will be going to heaven. Not only is this purely unbiblical, it’s also just as offensive as the idea of Hell being the same for everyone.
Hell is one of the debates that rarely focuses on what Scripture actually says, and instead is debated on the basis of cultural presumption. Culture doesn’t dictate what Christianity is, the Bible does. And scripture is clear — Heaven and Hell will be different for individuals in accordance to their actions.

disappear? I'll tell you why Dove because Hell was never meant to be
for us humans but for the devil and his angels. Now back to the the
question, God loves us all up to the end even till the very gates of
hell itself. May God richly bless you and your love ones.forHisglory
