Hell was indeed originally created not for man but for the devil and his angels (demons). No man needs to go there but many choose to. God forgives the sins of those who trust in the work done by Jesus Christ on the cross of calvary. Those who don't acknowledge Jesus as savior get to bear their own sins, forever.

A persons spirit is what leaves and it either goes to heaven if you dont commit man sins and if god forgives you for those sins as long as you really feel bad about the sins you commited. Or a persons spirit can go to hell if they commit sins and don't go to church to confess them selfs upon a priest(thats when god forgives people for their sins) but if people don't follow the 10 commandments and don't at least pray for god to forgive your sins you go to hell which is a bad thing obviously because your spirit is torchered and god is our creater which gives us eternal life if we go to heaven after some one dies.
God forgives all of your sins when you ask for forgiveness.

God wants to see if we believe that Jesus is His Son. Which we should. God has forgiven you of your sins he forgives everyone as long as we ask him for forgiveness. When he judges us he will see if we really believe and if we do we will go to HEAVEN and if we do not we will go to hell and burn forever.
He forgives our sins
God ALWAYS forgives you if you are sorry for your sins.
