Do Protestants believe in hell?
The vast majority of Protestants do not believe in purgatory. The historical reason for this is twofold. First, the idea of purgatory was a contributing factor in the corruption of the Church in selling indulgences which led to Martin Luther nailing his theses to the church door at Wittenberg, thus beginning the Reformation. Second, the idea pf Purgatory, Protestants believe, is unBiblical; there is no evidence scripturally that Purgatory exists. On the contrary, they regard Purgatory as against everything Christ stood for, his teachings, his idea of salvation by faith in him alone, and not by what we - or anyone else - can do, say - or pay. As Protestants seem to place a greater emphasis on evidential scripture and less on the (what they see as man-made) teachings of the Church, the vast majority cannot accept Purgatory to have any basis in fact whatsoever.
