In studying this subject, many confuse the verses dealing with the consequences of believers who suffer loss of rewards at the Bema Seat of Christ (Judgment Seat of Christ) with punishment levels in Hell for UN-believers. (See Romans 14.10-12; 2Corinthians 5.10)
However, the following passages and others like them, when considered in context, do seem to imply a distinct contrast and differing degrees of awareness for the damned.
Hell is wholly understood by many
Mainly because people attempt to fit everything into one earth iteration when the word of our Father clearly states there will be 3 earth iterations (2nd Peter 3), and we are now in the 2nd, the word and condition called hell is misunderstood.
Hell is not a place that exists eternally, its a temporary condition only existing until after the 2nd Judgment occurs (that's right there are two judgments - Revelation 20), and the 3rd Earth iteration comes into existence (Revelation 21). Christ himself refers to hell, relating it to the burn pits outside Jerusalem (valley of Hinnom, Gehenna) .
Once this earth iteration ends all of its elements are burned up (no longer required)
Once the second judgment occurs all souls found not worthy according to their works go into the lake of fire
Hell is that place that souls reside in before the end of this 2nd earth iteration occurs. There is an excellent explanation given in the book of Luke 16, there are additionally many good experiences by those who have resurrected (often called NDE) who have described the events of Luke 16 in great detail, via their live experience of it (Ian McCormack and Howard Storm for starters)
There will be no need for Hell after the second judgment, as all the evil has been collected up, tested by the touch stone, and eliminated.
No, there are not different degrees of punishment in hell mentioned in The Bible. We are told that God judges all sin equally. Meaning, that all sin is the same to Him. If you have broken one law, you have broken them all.
The word 'punishment' appears 38 times in the King James version of the Bible.
25 times in the KJV Bible.
The Bible supports it.
Baptist Bible College is an accredited Bible college. There are other accredited colleges too that are affiliated with a particular religion, that offer online courses, and offer different degrees.
because in the Bible it says that God wants us to enforce capitol punishment
No you can not as you may face capital punishment.
Many bible colleges offer many different higher education programs such as certificates, associate's degrees, diplomas, and bachelor's degrees and usually in Christian ministry and biblical studies. They all vary depending on the college.
There is no mentioning of the concept of race in the Bible. According to the Bible all man have the same origin (Adam and Eve). Genesis 5 The bible does refer to different nations and their chronicles however in the book of...1 Chronicles chapter 1. also in Genesis 10. again God didn't make different races in the bible.
No most likely there is only one temperature in hell. Which is very very hot and melting.
Every reference I saw it was that they were a kind of plague or punishment.
According to the bible, nothing is safe. You will die.
The concept of hell as a place of punishment or torment has theological origins in various ancient cultures and religious traditions, rather than being invented by a singular individual. It is notably featured in religious texts such as the Bible, the Quran, and in mythologies from different regions.
