Hell is everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels. It is described in the scriptures as
A furnace of fire
Where there is wailing and gnashing of teeth
Where there is weeping and gnashing of teeth
Outer darkness
Where their worm does not die,
and the fire is not quenched!
The great dragon, that serpent of old called the Devil and Satan was cast out of heaven because of pride. He knows that his destiny is eternal punishment in hell. Therefore while in transit on the earth, with great wrath, he deceives people into following him to hell. Hell is fulfilled when the wicked, evil Devil is cast in there.
"Hell from beneath is excited about you, To meet you at your coming; Your pomp is brought down to Sheol, And the sound of your stringed instruments; The maggot is spread under you, And worms cover you.' (Isaiah 14:9a, 11)
God's plan for people is, eternal life in heaven.
For God so loved the world (the people) that He gave His only begotten Son (JESUS), that whoever believes in Him should not perish (in hell) but have everlasting life (in heaven). ( John 3:16)
Before we leave this earth, we have to choose heaven or hell for our eternal habitation.
God alone has the authority to cast anyone into hell. The Bible says that "The wicked shall be turned into hell, And all the nations that forget God." (Psalm 9:17)
Have you made your decision?
You can decide right now by humbling yourself, bowing your knees and repenting of all your wickedness. Confess your sins to God. Receive God's forgiveness through JESUS CHRIST, Who took the punishment for your sins. Commit your life to the Lord JESUS, and He will put you on the path of righteousness and lead you to eternal life in heaven.
