Is Hell Real (The Under World)

[Apple Sky]

I reckon so, here is a map of the underworld, they say this is a fantasy map but just look at the intricate detail of this map,

Place your cursor on the map to which ever place you want to zoom in & Click.............

You will notice that the good places are in the north and the bad places are in the south like Tartari & Beelze Bub.

They say that the entrance to this underworld resides at the North Pole, the Arctic region.

Jesus said it is real. That is good enough for me.

A lot of creativity there.

IS this a question about geography or planetary science?

They say that the entrance to this underworld resides at the North Pole, the Arctic region.

What other NT writers call "Gehenna" John calls "The lake of fire" in Rev 20. It starts after the 1000 years mentioned in Rev 20 is completed.

So then as Rev 20 shows us - it is real, and it will be on the surface of the Earth.

While I like the effort and thanks for sharing this, I think there are more biblical realities about what hell is composed of. Abraham's bosom for instance was in the underworld a separate compartment. I have not studied this issue enough myself but if anyone has more info it would be great to post.

No text says that "Abraham's bosom" is in the underworld or is a compartment.

Luke 16:22-24 (KJV)
22 And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried;
23 And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.

You are right it does not say it directly, but as a man here in hell could see Abraham;s bosom it is likely next to hell and part of the underworld. Point 2 or 3 are the most mainstream view I think, though here is a teaching on the potential options. What Is Abraham's Bosom?

Where does He say that? He talks about a garbage dump where they burn the garbage. We read about that even during the Kingdom age in the book of Isaiah.

geenna: Gehenna, a valley W. and South of Jer., also a symbolic name for the final place of punishment of the ungodly
Original Word: γέεννα, ης, ἡ
Part of Speech: Noun, Feminine
Transliteration: geenna
Phonetic Spelling: (gheh'-en-nah)
Definition: Gehenna, a valley west and South of Jerusalem, also a symbolic name for the final place of punishment of the ungodly

 

[All Becomes New]

Heaven is not in a geological location. Neither is hell.

What is a real place people go is the New Jerusalem (NHNE) and the Lake of Fire. These are not earth though. They are new creations of God. The Lake of Fire is a place where there is no presence of God. The NHNE is the absolute presence of God. They are physical places but do not currently exist.

the garbage dump was a place of eternal fire. Always fire there.

He told the story of the rich man and Lazarus. That was hell there. And where the fire is not quenched and the worm does not die. Don’t you believe Him? Yes the definition is right.
