It’s funny how many people judge others and don’t look at the log in their own eye. Want to know what hell really is? It’s separation from God.
A long time ago, I was challenged to look at the Gospel of John in the New Testament and to ask the question, “Who did Jesus claim to be?” If anyone reads the passage objectively, they’ll see the answer. And the proof of his claim is that the Father raised him from the dead. Our response is to see that we are separated from him (we have broken his commands and are sinners,) to ask him to forgive us for the decisions that we’ve made to separate us from him (our sin,) and to change our minds so that we are now following him (repent.) We have talked about this in the past. Those who have done so will live eternally with him. This is heaven. Those who reject him will get their way and live eternally away from him (hell.) 1 John 5:11-13 “11 And this is the testimony, that God gave us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.12 Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life. 13 I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life.”
