Is Hell Real? Is Hell a Real Place?

Is Hell Real people ask me sometimes.  The answer is YES.  Hell is very real and a place we don't want to go!

Psalm 55:15 says Let death seize them; Let them go down alive into hell, For wickedness is in their dwellings........

The book of Proverbs talks about Hell.  Chapter 7 and verse 27 says Her house is the way to hell, Descending to the chambers of death. and Proverbs 9:18 says this:  But he does not know that the dead are there, That her guests are in the depths of hell.

Then Proverbs 23:14 says You shall beat him with a rod, And deliver his soul from hell.

Jesus talks about Hell all the time because He did not want people to go their.  He mentions it 3 times in Mathew 5:22, 29, and 30.  He mentions it several other times in Mathew. 

In Mark 9:45 Jesus said this:  And if your foot causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life lame, rather than having two feet, to be cast into hell, into the fire that shall never be quenched.

2 Peter 2:4 Says this:  For if God did not spare the angels who sinned, but cast them down to hell and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved for judgment............

Hell is also described in Luke 16:19 in the story of The Rich Man and Lazarus.  It's an incredible description of Hell and gives us a hint of it's suffering. 

I hope this helps!
