Will you burn to death in hell?

No. People in hell will already be physically dead. I think hell will be hell because in this place people are separated from God.


Where am I going and why am I in this handbasket?

A hand basket was used as a metaphor in the US in the 1900s evangelical movements to scare nonbelievers. The phrase "going to hell in a handbasket" is the alliterative idiom that means a general breakdown of morality or proper Christian behavior.


Are atheist afraid of going to hell?

Well we can say "yes" and "no". Why? Because they do not believe in it. They don't think any of it exists and all the people who are moral and immoral will just die and go back to the way they were before they were born. And "yes" because if they know it exists and the day of judgment is soon than of course they will be scared.


What will happen if a demon sends you to hell?

Well, first of all, a "demon" is not going to send you there! God will send you there if you have not been baptized. God was the one who cast the devil into hell. But to directly answer the question: it's going to be really hot and you are going to suffer until you can't stand the heat any longer!AnswerNot everyone believes in Hell. There is no Hell in Judaism, for example. I am not Jewish; I am an agnostic who was raised Protestant (Methodist). But I don't believe that any benevolent God would ever send his children to Hell, no matter what sins they committed in their life.Of course, there is always the possibility that God, if He exists, is either not benevolent, or not omnipotent. If God is not benevolent, then he might send people to Hell. Or, if God is not omnipotent -- if, for example, God has a God to answer to -- then he may not have a choice in the matter.In the movie The Craft, Fairuza Balk's character describes the supreme Creator spirit, Manon, this way: "If God and the Devil were playing soccer, Manon would be the stadium that they played on."I always thought that was an interesting idea: that God may not be in control of everything. Perhaps He is not all powerful; perhaps there is a greater entity that He has to answer to.But I think that the idea that God sends bad people to Hell forever is incompatible with the idea of a benevolent God. In Buddhism, for example, Hell is not eternal. You suffer in Hell until you have paid for the sins you committed in life, and then you are allowed to go to Heaven.But in Christianity, Hell is a place of eternal suffering, for people who are totally forsaken by God. And I don't believe that any benevolent God would ever completely forsake someone and condemn them to Hell forever.And a benevolent God would certainly not condemn someone to Hell (permanently OR temporarily) just because they were never baptized. That would be incredibly cruel and unfair, and a benevolent God is not supposed to be either of those things.That leaves four possibilities: 1) God is both benevolent and omnipotent, and there is no Hell, 2) God is both benevolent and omnipotent, and there is a Hell, but people are only sent there temporarily, until they have paid for their sins, 3) there is an eternal Hell, and people get sent there because God is omnipotent but not benevolent, or 4) there is an eternal Hell, and people get sent there because God is benevolent but not omnipotent.Whatever the case, as an agnostic I believe it is pointless to speculate on what happens after we die. Nobody knows what happens after you die except the dead, and they're not talking. Anyone who thinks they KNOW what happens after you die is fooling themselves.If there is an afterlife, it would be unlike anything that living humans are capable of imagining. So it's pointless to try to speculate on what the afterlife would be like, since it is beyond our current understanding.


How many times was hell written in the Old Testament?

None. The Israelites believed in the concept of Sheol, which is literally the "Grave". This was incorrectly translated as "Hell" in the 17th Century, but in modern translations, you will not find the word, "Hell" anywhere in the Old Testament. Now, it is correctly translated, "Grave". In the Old Testament, the afterlife was a mystery, and Israelites had no concept of Hell. It was sometime during the 400 years between the end of the Old Testament and the birth of Jesus Christ, that the Pharisees and Essenes started believing in the concept of Hell. The Sadducees however, did not believe in Hell.

Do you go hell if you get your fortune told?

Fortune tellers are people who are in contact with evil spirits, and here is what the Bible has to say about such practise in the Book of Deuteronomy 18: 10-14, where God explains that anyone who practices divination, magic, consulting of spirit medium or fortune tellers or anyone inquiring the dead, that it is detestable to Him . Verses 12, 13 reads. " For whoever does these things is destestable to Jehovah God, and on account of these detestable practices Jehovah your God is driving them away before you . You should prove yourself blameless before Jehovah your God." Most people would like to know what out future holds, and the best person to give us the accurate answer is the Creator of mankind. The Bible is a letter from God according to 2 Timothy 3: 16,17 and beneficial for our teachings and setting things straight. The practice of astrology and fortune-telling implies that our future is predetermined. But is it ? The Bible tells us that we have the ability to choose what we believe or what to do and that our choices affect our future. The Bible is the only Book that can tells us accurately about our past, present and future. Promises that will come true are : God will bring to an end wars. Read Psalm 46: 9. No more sickness. Read Isaiah 33. 24 No more food shortage. Read Psalm 72: 16 No more sorrow and death. Read Revelation 21: 4 Jehovah described in the Bible as the God " who cannot lie." Read Titus 1: 2. Since he has promised all these wonderful things for the furure, it would be prudent on our part to consider: Is it really possible for humans to live forever in the promised earthly Paradise. Read John 17: 3 Psalm 115: 16 reads. " As for the heavens, they belong to Jehovah, but the earth He has given to the sons of men. Psalm 37: 29 reads. " The righteous will possess the earth, And they will live forever on it". That opportunity was offered to Adam and Eve. Read Genesis 2: 15-17. But they made their choice to listen to another voice. Read Genesis 3: 1-5 . Satan promised them that they would be like God in verse 4. Well ! That did not happen, did it? But there is one thing that we can understand is: The god-like complex is all over the world today. 1 John 5: 19 reads: " The whole world is lying in the power of the wicked one. And Revelation 12: 9 describes the wicked one in these words. " The original serpent , the one called Devil and Satan, who is misleading the entire inhabited earth." So there are only two influences. The accurate knowledge of God or the misleading influence and practice in astrology, fortune-telling and many other supernatural knowledge that can be read in magazines and newspapers.
