the other place: is there such a place? by ric Gustafson


In Revelation 20:14, there is a place called the lake of fire. In Revelation 20: 1-3, there is a deep pit. In Mark 9:43, there are inextinguishable flames. Matthew 8:12 talks about darkness.
There is a lot of symbolism when the Bible describes hell. So the question to be asked is is Hell an actual place or just a symbol of a spiritual state?. In Mark 9: 43-48, Jesus uses ' Gehenna' to mean Hell. In Jesus's day, the valley where Gehenna was located was a horrible place. Centuries earlier, people would sacrifice their children to the god Molech. The site in Jesus's day was a garbage dump where a fire burned incessantly.
According to God's Word, Hell is a real place where those who reject God's gift of salvation and eternal life will endure their decision forever.
