If you listen to many other spiritual preachers, they seem to mimic the same things; that there is an afterlife but it isn't having your skin growing back again and being burned but rather a continuation of a evil state of mind here on earth. i.e. hell isn't a physical place

A lot of religious people would say that "This is just fluffy liberal spiritualism" but in many people who have experienced NDE's of a mental place called hell, they say that they were absolutely terrified in hell despite no demons, no satan, and no physical pain. They were in mental anguish for reliving torment of the people they'd wronged, souls tormenting them like they way they wronged others and intrusive thoughts that could be far more damaging that physical pain to their consciousness. What do you think?

All who know the true living God-YHVH(Jehovah) knows its impossible for eternal suffering to be literal. His justice scales are perfectly balanced, uncorruptable. It was symbolism taught in the NT. Jesus teaches--Enter through the narrow gate( 1 way) for cramped is the road that is leading off into life( everlasting) FEW are the ones finding it. For MANY have entered the broad and spacious path that leads to destruction. Not eternal suffering--destruction. Only a sadist would have a eternal suffering place---the true living God is love.

All thought stops on the day of ones death. They are in the grave and in Gods memory awaiting the resurrection. That doesn't occur untilafter Har-mageddon hits the earth.

It's interesting that you can be so matter-of-fact about something that you have never experienced and has never been experienced by another person who came back and gave evidence. Where's Rod Serling when we need him?

Those who say that-did not die-they are living. Their thought did not stop as the bible teaches it does.

The bible does say the dead know nothing, seem to imply a 'big sleep'.

A panic attack could well be related the Fear of Hell.
In many ways the eternal torment, and taunting by Demons on every piece of dirty laundry that ever happened from your entire life, is more scary than the physical agony of Hell.

Why would demons be taunting people in hell when it was created specifically for THEIR place of punishment, they are more likely to be the ones truly suffering in that place, its not like Hell is their 'turf' where they run the place like prison guards. LOL

I think a lot of people have this misconception about demons and hell, plus, right now, there are no demons in hell yet, they are still in our realm, among us, until judgement day, if you recall, the bible says satan and the other demons were cast down TO EARTH, after being kicked out of heaven, they cant be in two places at the same time either.
