If hell exists, then some Christians are also going there.
It's possible that believing is simply not enough.
I believe, and I love Jesus, and that may not be enough if hell is real.
I don't volunteer or help the poor at every waking moment.
What if I believe because I'm afraid to go to hell, or I want to go to heaven, instead of because I simply love God?
Maybe in this case if hell exists you go there.
What if only one of the 1000's of religions on Earth is right? I'm none of them, and may go to hell because of that if it exists.
God supposedly made hell for Satan. I feel like sometimes I'm possessed or have attachments of negative entities because of my perverse nature.
That if hell exists would make me destined for it.
And what is hell, the core of a star, or the center of Earth? But those two aren't eternal, and yet hell, if it exists, is.
What if God only wants those that love him the most?
I'm listening to The God Delusion on Audible right now. What if God doesn't want us to even question his existence? That by reading even these, or magical materials, we are going against his desires?
When I was a Christian for 10 years it really messed me up, and made me cower. I haven't begged God for forgiveness for my past "sins".
We are far more judgmental than god is.
It's important to remember you are not dealing with a petty human intellect when talking about something as all encompassing as the Logos or God.
While it is true some NDE'ers experience a hell like experience, they are only experiencing that which they needed to experience to get them to change their lives. Some people are at a stage of vibration where they respond much better to that particular afterlife allegory than they do a heavenly paradise. Sometimes offering glimpses to people of heavenly paradise is actually quite detrimental to their spiritual evolution because from that point on all they want to do is die, so they can escape the hell that they have interpreted Earth school as, which has now been rendered even more painful by experiencing such a perfected heavenly realm (the warmth highlights the experience of the cold). This is also why many people who come close to death don't have a near death experience. The experience is not helpful to all souls.
But there is no permanent hell for souls, all there is is the interpretation of the One from a very distorted and separated perspective (a low vibrational interpretation) which makes things appear disjointed, disharmonious, and chaotic (and some STS souls actually desire to inhabit this realm). If you ever find yourself in a darkened astral realm surrounded by seemingly negative entities, turn your deepest thoughts towards the love of the one infinite creator and it will begin immediately raising your vibration to a level that these beings won't even want to be near you.
