Hell is a place that amounts to torment forever. It was actually created for Satan and his fallen angels (demons). But Christ preached so that people could escape Hell. See Mark 9:42-50.

Through believing in Christ as the One who paid for our sins, and trusting in Him as your Savior from din's penalty (Hell), you will be forgiven and gain eternal life, thus permanently escaping Hell. But, as it says in Galatians 6:7, "God is not mocked," you can't fool God in oprder to continue in sin, and doing whatever you wish.

AnswerI am glad that the above contributor, whom I respect enormously, did not describe hell in the same naive way as the typical Bosch painting with a red devil with horns and forked tail pushing people into a fire with a pitchfork. This idea of hell is a medieval invention.

However 'hell' as a state of 'being' definitely does exist - even if you do not accept a loving God. If one can describe heaven as a state of existence in the absolute, total and all encompassing presence and love of God, then hell is the exact opposite; a state of being where God is totally absent. Just as we can have tiny glimpses of heaven on earth (in a flower, in a person's smile, in a good deed) but have no real idea of how overwhelmingly special heaven will be after we die in faith, so we cannot really tell how much of a torment hell is. Whatever disaster besets us on earth; no matter how much in the depths of despair we may be, God is always there in the midst of things, giving hope, giving consolation and suffering as we suffer. But in hell there is no God; there is absolutely no hope and no comfort.

If preachers preach about heaven then they must preach about hell. People can either accept God or reject Him. If it is the latter, then, by their own choice they prefer to live a life - and an afterlife - without God... they cannot blame God for that as they have made their choice - a hell of their own making.

Depends on the preacher. Some preachers might preach for attention or popularity, which is never right.
