What Is Hell

from Be Encouraged

Now that we know Heaven is God Himself, we can say, "Hell is anything other than God." God is life; the other is not. God is Light; the other is not. God is love; the other is not. Here is a list of God things: joy, peace, temperance, self-control, patience, and so on. If you have the Not things, you have what we call Hell. Hell is the permanent place for the not-God stuff. It is a place where you can try and do what your heart desires without the earth and a body with which to satiate the desire. Let's say you really feel fulfilled eating fine food. Death removes the food but not the desire. If your soul is attached to the desire, you get to have the desire but with no way to satisfy it. Now, that is hell. It is hell on earth and hell without the earth. So then, heaven is being both attached and addicted to what goes on forever; hell is both being attached to and addicted to the flesh, which ends, but your soul goes on wanting. Thus, our simple conclusion is, "Hell is anything other than God, and He going on forever."
