HELL - Christians have already been judged and sentenced. Jesus took that sentence upon Himself. Our sin becomes His and His righteousness becomes ours when we received Him as Lord and Savior.

How could hell be eternal separation from God, if God is everywhere?

"And just as it is appointed for man to die once, and after that comes judgment,"  Hebrews 9:27 (ESV) English Standard Version 

God’s Word says everyone dies physically and, after that, comes the judgment.

Christians have already been judged and sentenced. Jesus took that sentence upon Himself.

Our sin becomes His and His righteousness becomes ours when we received Him as Lord and Savior.

"For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God." 2 Corinthians 5:21 (ESV)

Because He took our just punishment, we need not fear ever being separated from Him again.

"For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, in order that he might be the firstborn among many brothers. 

 And those whom he predestined he also called, and those whom he called he also justified, and those whom he justified he also glorified.  Romans 8:29-30 (ESV)

The only way to be declared righteous before God is through faith in the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ (John 3:16–18; Romans 10:9).

Only the righteous inherit eternal life. The souls of the righteous go directly into the presence of God (Luke 23:43; 2 Corinthians 5:8; Philippians 1:23).

There are only two possible destinations for every human soul following physical death: heaven or hell (Matthew 25:34, 41, 46; Luke 16:22–23).

For those who do not receive Jesus Christ as Savior, death means everlasting punishment.

"in flaming fire, inflicting vengeance on those who do not know God and on those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus.

"They will suffer the punishment of eternal destruction, away from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of his might," 2 Thessalonians 1:8-9 (ESV)

This punishment is described in a variety of ways:

- a lake of fire (Luke 16:24; Revelation 20:14–15),

- outer darkness (Matthew 8:12), and

- a prison (1 Peter 3:19), for example.

This place of punishment is eternal (Jude 1:13; Matthew 25:46).

There is no biblical support for the notion that after death people get another chance to repent. 

The judgment for unbelievers is still to come.

Second Thessalonians 1:8–9 says, “He will punish those who do not know God and do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus. They will be punished with everlasting destruction and shut out from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of his might.”

The misery of hell will consist not only of physical torture, but the agony of being cut off from every avenue of happiness.

God is the source of all good things (James 1:17). 
To be cut off from God is to forfeit all exposure to anything good.

Hell will be a state of perpetual sin; yet those suffering there will possess full understanding of sin’s horrors. Remorse, guilt, and shame will be unending, yet accompanied by the conviction that the punishment is just.
.
There will no longer be any deception about the “goodness of man.”

To be separated from God is to be forever shut off

- from light (1 John 1:5),

- from love (1 John 4:8),

- from joy (Matthew 25:23), and

- from peace (Ephesians 2:14)

because God is the source of all those good things.

Any good we observe in humanity is merely a reflection of the character of God, in whose image we were created (Genesis 1:27).
.
While the spirits of those regenerated by God’s Holy Spirit will abide forever with God in a perfected state (1 John 3:2), the opposite is true of those in hell.

None of the goodness of God will exist in them.

Whatever good they may have thought they represented on earth will be as “filthy rags” (filthy as a menstruating woman’s rags) before the glory of the Lord.

"We are all infected and impure with sin. When we put on our prized robes of righteousness, we find they are but filthy rags^[a]

Like autumn leaves we fade, wither, and fall. And our sins, like the wind, sweep us away." Isaiah 64:6 The Living Bible (TLB)

 Footnotes: ^[a] Isaiah 64:6 filthy rags, literally, “filthy as a menstruating woman’s rags.”

Man’s ideas of goodness will be measured against the perfection of God’s holiness and be found severely lacking.

Those in hell have forever lost the chance to see God’s face, hear His voice, experience His forgiveness, or enjoy His fellowship.

To be forever separated from God is the ultimate punishment.

Are you struggling with a big decision or wondering how your eternal future will play out?

Why not talk to the God of the universe and let Him work in your behalf?

He says, “I will instruct you and teach you the way you should go; I will counsel you with my eye upon you" (Psalm 32:8).

Ask God to show you what to do. Pray the following prayer: 

“Heavenly Father,

I admit that I am a sinner and my sins have separated me from You. I now want to turn away from my past sinful life and begin a new life with You.

Please forgive me. I now receive your Son, Jesus Christ as my Savior, my Master and my Lord. I believe and confess that Jesus Christ died for my sins, was buried, and rose from the dead.

I want to receive all that Jesus Christ has provided for me as my Savior. Your Word says, ‘Whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved’ (Romans 10:13).

I believe and confess that Jesus Christ is the Way, the Truth, and the Life, and no man comes unto the Father, but by Him.

Lord Jesus, I pray and ask You, to come into my heart and be Lord of my life. I thank You that you have given me eternal life, and according to Your Word, I am born again.

Heavenly Father, thank You for the gift of the Holy Spirit that is in me now. I surrender my life to You. . I promise to study Your Word – the Bible.

Use me for Your glory.

In Jesus Name. Amen.”

lyrics

Lord I lift Your name on high
Lord I love to sing Your praises
I'm so glad You're in my life
I'm so glad You came to save us

You came from heaven to earth
(To show the way) 

From the earth to the cross
(My debt to pay) 

From the cross to the grave
From the grave to the sky
Lord, I lift Your name on high
