Revelation 20:15
If anyone's name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire.

Isaiah 14: 12How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!

13For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:

14I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.

15Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.

John 5:24
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.

Hell was created for Satan and the third of the angels that were cast out with him. It is his punishment for anarchy. The bible says that it is also the place where the worst of the fallen angels are chained up, because they are too evil to be allowed to run free on the earth.

Hell, or Sheol, is described in the Bible as a place of torment. A hot dry place, where fires burn always. Once you can wrap your belief around Hell being originally planned for Satan, then you'll be able to understand how a loving and just God could create a place as horrible as hell. In the natural prisons are created for those who take the law in their own hands or simply ignore the laws of the land. It is no different in Kingdom society.

The Bible principle of who will go to hell depends on where you stand, with or against God, but even in that the LORD uses mercy. Genesis 18: 20 And the LORD said, Because the cry of Sodom and Gomorrah is great, and because their sin is very grievous;

21I will go down now, and see whether they have done altogether according to the cry of it, which is come unto me; and if not, I will know.

In his mercy, he went to see if the sin was as bad as it sounded. I believe, and this stand is controversial, that Jesus went into hell to minister salvation to those who did not have the favor of grace and new mercy, Those who died before his crucifixion.

Once you know the truth, it shall make you free. To know that because he is a loving God he has even put a time limit on the torment in hell. Rev. 20:

14And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.

15And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. This is the second (and final) death.

Yes, it is very hard to get into Hell and honestly what in Hell do we want? Our God is a wonderful Father!

4What is man that You are mindful of him, and the son of [earth born] man that You care for him?

5Yet You have made him but a little lower than God [or heavenly beings], and You have crowned him with glory and honor.

6You made him to have dominion over the works of Your hands; You have put all things under his feet:(A)
