IS HELL FOREVER?

Firstly we need to know that God created hell and He created it for His purpose and we need to know that God is eternal and hell is not eternal for God lives in heaven, which is eternal. Secondly we need to know that forever means forever and God is eternal, which means He lives forever, which means that hell cannot be forever because God will be all in all. This means that whatever is hell, is where God is not yet made fully manifest.

It is good at this time to pray to our Father in heaven the maker of hell and ask Him the purpose of hell so that we have a good understanding of His ways.

Pray this prayer in the hope to know within your own heart the Truth about hell, pray from your spirit.
 

" Lord Jesus the one who died and who NOW lives forever more, the One who has the keys of Hell and Death please teach me the purpose of Hell, AMEN."
 

The best definition of Hell would be our awareness of torments and spiritual tensions within our own being, which feel so overbearing that we would rather be dead and free from the bondage of corruption, which we are in. This bondage of corruption is because we have separated our lives from the life of God either willingly or unwittingly. The separation in our mind from the knowledge of God has made us form our own personal hell. The frustrating thing about this separation is that we all are connected to God in the one spirit but we don't know it. Our own mind is working against the unity of the spirit, which joins us as one in Christ. We see ourselves as individuals and we are each one of us trying to form our own destiny, which is against the will of God for our lives. The frustration comes because we don't know our true potential as Christ and we still think that we are limited and tend to work out our own plans according to our own understanding. We are spiritual beings with unlimited potential and we are contained in limited thinking because of our separation from God in our minds. The burning within us, which is spiritual torment is the true nature of Christ wanting to create what God has purposed for us but the limited carnal mind inhibits the flow of the spirit because we have not got our mind set on the spirit. We are contained by the traditions of man and the teaching of man and we are not living our true identity as Christ. We are living in a false identity, which brings hell into our lives. The carnal mind brings destruction to the flesh, where as the spiritual mind of Christ brings eternal life and this frustration of our true identity doing battle with the old nature is hell.

Hell is separation from God in our minds and it occurs in all people until we put on the mind of Christ and allow the spirit of God to flow into our vessels to bring life. Hell is even with those who have gone to the grave and who now have no particles of earth around their spirit. The dead in the grave still have their soul, which is who they are but they have lost their bodies. The souls, which are beyond this mortal plane are still in torment if they still have not set their minds on the spirit and become at one with Christ. People who are in this realm on the other side of the river of life are still alive and one day will be resurrected with a new body and judged. It is only when these dear ones put on the mind of Christ and follow Jesus that they will be made whole. In the sleep that they are in they are in spiritual torment and there is gnashing of teeth and darkness and chains because they now are in self condemnation and in hell for not listening to the truth but all will come to the truth and God will be all in all. The Bible says even if we make our bed in hell that God is there lifting us up to Himself.

So we can see that Hell is on both sides of the river of life and Hell is really not! being in the river of life. Hell is separation from God and when we are in hell we experience times of torment but this does not mean that if we are following Jesus that there will not be fire of judgement. God makes His sun to shine and His rain to fall on the righteous and the unrighteous and no matter where we are in life God wants to manifest Himself in us. When we go our own way against God and when we are His enemy then we bring destruction to ourselves by the sowing from our unregenerated minds or our carnal minds, which brings corruption to our body or to our carnal nature. This sowing of our self nature brings hell to us and we experience circumstances in our lives, which are destructive and depressing, we go deeper into darkness and we become more and more alienated from God in our minds. Hell is when our true nature is suppressed by our self nature and we do not know the way out. Our true nature, which is Christ or the expression of God in His creation, is really wanting to come to light in our own understanding but we by our stubborn will and determination continue to do things our way and we never know our true identity. It is this battle within that makes hell for us and when we realize that we need to allow our self nature to be dismantled and to allow our true identity to bloom, then heaven will be manifested within us and God will be able to live in His Temple who we all are.
 

Hell is really the friction that comes as Christ makes Himself in us. It is the heat caused by the change, we are in the midst of that changing process and God is the potter putting us in the kiln of life fashioning us into a beautiful vessel worthy of His eternal habitation. In an earlier study I pointed out that God makes us in two stages first the Adamic man or the natural man made of the dust of the earth who has a soul or container and who is feminine in nature spiritually. Then He makes us into His sons or He pours His spirit into us from within and fills the vessel or soul with His own substance. This spirit of God comes into the vessel by the receiving of the Word, which is Jesus Christ and the incorruptible seed of promise is conceived in the womb of our mind and believed in our heart as we acknowledge Jesus Christ as Lord of our life. This seed is the engrafted Word able to save our soul and it is the very life essence within our being which will grow into a large tree of life bearing good fruit for the Kingdom of God. The seed needs a lot of heat and watering to be in the ideal conditions for germination and it is in the furnace of God and in the torment of our trials that the heat comes into our lives, which is able to crack the outer case of that seed and enable it to burst forth into new life within our vessel. The Bible says that Jesus is the true light that lights every man woman and child who comes into the world and in a dormant state Jesus is in us in our natural state or our Adamic state. When we receive, conceive and believe that God raised Jesus from the dead into eternal life and that we are to follow Him and become as He is in this world as we eat of His divine nature and feed off His life-giving spirit then we also will know who we are and life will pour into our own soul and restore eternal life in us.

So hell has a purpose and it is to turn us to God as we realize our wayward ways and separation from God in our minds. It also is part of the plan of God to provide the right conditions for the germination of the promised seed within our vessel of clay. The fire of judgement is different when we willingly come to God to offer a burnt offering and it is only when we do not know God that the fire of judgement is hell. God is a consuming fire and He consumes all of the worthless things in our lives, things which are temporal, things which can not stand the test of time. It is only the things of God's nature that are eternal and we have in our minds many things which are not eternal but rather, are vain imaginations from self. These graven images in our minds need to be burned in the purging fire of God's judgement, we are to willingly judge ourselves with the judgement of God to be made pure and to be restored to the image of God.
It is when we can willingly walk into the fire without fear and ask God to consume everything that is not of Him that we will see who we really are. The will is the fulcrum point of life and death for us and we need to align our will with the will of God and this happens as we surrender all sovereignty to God and say Lord have Your will in my life and show me who I am as you live in me.

The only barrier between our true identity and our self made identity is the veil of Sin in our lives or the guilty unworthy and shameful opinion we have of ourselves, which we have believed within ourselves as others have spoken words of destruction to us. When this barrier of Sin consciousness comes down within our own mind then we will be able to reconcile ourselves with God and realize our true identity as a son of God and the Christ or the presence of God will be made manifest in our vessel, which is the Temple of God to show His glory in the earth.

It is the false concepts of hell, which keep people in fear of hell fire and brimstone and eternal judgement. All of these words are fabrications of man and mistranslation of Holy scripture to serve their own purposes in controlling the people and in keeping God's people in bondage to carnality. There has been a doctrine of eternal damnation spoken in Churches for many centuries and it was never spoken in the early days of the Church. It is translation error that has caused this false concept and it is utterly ridiculous to even accept it without question.
When we look at what the word eternal means we find that it is a timeless word, which means the ultimate or the very pinnacle of perfection and is indeed timelessness, it is the state from which all is created and everything is Holy, righteous and Just within eternity or heaven. When we compare this to the word hell, we see that in hell it is not perfect or holy or just but in fact it is about opposite to heaven or eternal nature. So hell can not exist in eternity because it is not perfect in nature nor is it timeless. God will be all in all, which means that what is in hell will also change and be in heaven. The words that describe hell and ages and worlds are all time related words, which mean that the times will end because in heaven there is only timelessness and at the end of the ages God will be all in all as Jesus hands up the Kingdom of Christ to the Father.
We need to know in our minds that God has created time as a womb for the making of His offspring and that time will pass into timelessness as we all manifest the presence of the eternal God.

There has been much confusion in the understanding of the Church on the lake of fire and hell and what it all means and so we need to personally have a good look at what is meant in the Bible and not lean on our own understanding or believe the teachings of man on the subject because we all have been deceived and fall short of the glory of God. The best way to know what is meant is to ask God for yourself and study the words in the Bible, which raise question in your own mind. When you do a word search go to the concordance and see what the root words mean in the native language and also see how these words have been used in recorded history in the day. Language is in transition and what was written in the days shortly after Christ may have been perfectly understood by the reader then but today we find that there is a completely different understanding or even a completely different word used to express the meaning. The word used in translation, is one chosen by the translator and it may have a personal application according to his own knowledge or understanding or doctrinal belief. The new testament  was not written at the time of Christ and in the early days of the Church, men received direct revelation from the Holy spirit or directly from Christ, who is the Holy spirit now and they wrote the Bible from what they heard in their spirit. So in a sense we have the scriptures for teaching and reproof and instruction and rebuking of lies but we do not receive revelation from them, only confirmation. We know from the Bible that the letter kills us and the spirit gives us life and so it is good to ask God about any questions that arise in your spirit concerning doctrines and come out of doubt and fear. If we stick to doctrines of men and remain in bondage to doctrines and men, then we quench the spirit, which can give us life and lead us out of darkness and into Christ life. The only place that Satan can have any ground in us is in areas of our mind, which are not surrendered to Christ, so if you still have a battle going on in your mind ask God to identify the ground that satan uses in you and ask God to consume it by His fire, His sulfur and brimstone of purification.

So then Hell is God's plan, for all things are of God and there is nothing made, which is not made by Him. We all came from eternity into this vessel of clay and we have a battle with our true identity. Sin is the barrier and we are in Hell fighting to know our true identity. Sin is thinking with a separated mind and not allowing our true identity to flow into our vessel to glorify God. Jesus has removed our consciousness of SIN, so we had better realize that and allow the life now to flow into us. Hell is on both sides of the river if we choose to remain in separation from God. Our inheritance is on this side of the river as we realize our true identity and allow the spirit of God to flow into our vessel and convert the dirt into Holy ground.

If you have been in a fire of affliction and you are not sure how to come into the presence of God, if you have been fighting the liar instead of lighting the fire, then it is time to come out of Hell and come into heaven where the fire is welcomed and joyful as you feel the shackles fall to the ground and you fly into another dimension of life in the spirit. There is a prayer for those who feel the fire burning within them to know their true identity and for those who want to receive Jesus as Lord of their lives. At the bottom of this page click on the link and speak out your prayer of confession to your Father God of belief in His Son Jesus as Lord and saviour of all.

14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.
(KJV)
 

The lake of fire is what the judgement of God will become as all people allow the spirit of God consume their flesh or worldly minds. This lake started as a few tougues of fire in Jerusalem as the power of God descended from on high to those waiting and now the whole earth will be filled with the glory of God as His fire engulfs the whole world and consumes it. All elements will melt and we all will only see the true creation that God has made as we all know our true identity as Christ. God will behold His creation through us and we will be with Him in our own bodies as one body of Christ on this earth. The lake of fire will put death to death and all people will be purified and live in heaven on earth. We all go through hell to get to heaven but along the way we wake up and co operate with God and allow ourselves to be consumed, which reveals who we really are, Christ, His SON.
