you think souls will be destroyed?
but humans are made in the image of God?
God will wipe out something that was in His image?
Hell is forever
because the soul is immortal
and after the resurrection of the dead, the human person will be immortal
either for everlasting glory with God
or everlasting torment in separation from God
Viewpoints differ.What is the Traditional understanding of Hell? Are there people there now? Is it a place?
But what exactly "hell" is and who if anyone ends up involved in it is something the churches best theologians, including recent Popes and Cardinals, are pretty varied about.there is also Daniel 12:2
Multitudes who sleep in the dust of the earth will awake: some to everlasting life, others to shame and everlasting contempt.
also there is the teaching of the Church which is the pillar of truth
hell is a reality, and it is forever

why else would Jesus warn people again and again about the need to follow the straight path
Matthew 7:14
How narrow is the gate, and strait is the way that leadeth to life: and few there are that find it!

I understand that private revelations are subjective, but if there was NO ONE at all in hell then these visions would just be lies

why else would Jesus warn people again and again about the need to follow the straight path
Matthew 7:14

It's written by a Protestant and apparently what I pieced together from his NDE and I got very interested since I had an NDE. Each thing is determined by what they did not do on Earth and did not have time for God.That sounds pagan.
the 3 shepherd children of Fatima saw many souls burning in hell like embers
