Matthew 5:29-30
New International Version (NIV)
29 If your right eye causes you to stumble, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell. 30 And if your right hand causes you to stumble, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to go into hell.

For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord.

Utter waste of time to watch t. his in my opinion... if you want to know about hell, read Dante's inferno or watch Spawn... these are stories as ,well, though more entertaining...edit on 15-10-2011 by ParAvion because: (no reason given)[,/quote]
Wow, that's a little drastic, dont ya think? Sounds like you got some emotional blocks keeping your mind closed off to certain avenues of thought. Let me ask you, what WOULDN'T have made you stop watching? I'm curious as to what type of a recounting of a trip to Hell you would have found acceptable? Couldn't anything be considered a "story"?
There was once a man named Albert Einstein who- oh! Stop right there! Star Wars is a story too, only its a lot more interesting!
You sound like one of those people who doesn't realize that organizations such as The Roman Catholic Church, Westburough Baptist Church and 99% of organizations proclaiming to be Christian do not represent Jesus. You've seen all these atrocities done in the name of god and you believed that these people were actually following the Christian faith to a T.
No. Christianity was "hijacked" in essence, over 1700 years ago, and there are only a few of us who truly follow the teachings of Jesus to the point we are not spreading evil like our misled, decieved distant relatives who make up the face of Christianity most of you have come to know over the years. But you never really looked at the teachings of Jesus himself, did you? Is love and forgiveness really all that terrible?
Either way, a truly logical person listens to the whole message before cutting someone off and discounting their entire message as nonsense. This is grade school level stuff...
I truly am curious, however, about your preferred description of a trip into hell. Would ANY story have satisfied your requirements? Or did you walk into this with the premeditated plan to ridicule it? Bcause if not, then again, what would you consider to be a true recounting of Hell? And if so, then, well, is this the way a truly enlightened being chooses to spend his or her time? Or are we dealing with one who has not yet reached maturity yet, and who treats this site as a playground of sorts, to release the sudden outbursts of random silliness that a child is often overcome by? Cause if that's the case then carry on, but you might want to consider placing a disclaimer of some kind, in your signature perhaps, explaining that you are just a child who whiles away their time poking fun at that which you do not understand

Unless I'm wrong, doesn't the bible say that once you die and go to hell, you will NEVER come back, for any reason? That you are there for eternity, and God himself will never save you?
I've never really believed these stories of hell, it always seemed like people trying to get attention or sell a book. Especially that one pastor who makes these claims. I think if God wanted to bring someone back from hell to tell people about it, he'd choose a better method than youtube.
(1 Timothy 2: 9-14)
In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety ... Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection. But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. For Adam was first formed, then Eve. And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in transgression. Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety.
