God releasing prisioners.

ACTS 16
23 - 26

And when they had laid many stripes upon them, they cast them into prison, charging the jailor to keep them safely:

Who, having received such a charge, thrust them into the inner prison, and made their feet fast in the stocks.

And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God: and the prisoners heard them.

And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken: and immediately all the doors were opened, and every one's bands were loosed.


Okay, so Paul and Silas pray, their sins forgiven and they are released from jail?

I don't see why everyone else was released with them, others in that jail were criminals.

If all you need to do is pray, and your forgiven, for anything, then I don't even see why there is a hell.
