Hell, or rather my brief experience of it.
#61
RE: Hell, or rather my brief experience of it.
I reject your testimony, Drich, as it is not scripturally sound.

Everyone, open your Bibles to Luke chapter 16 and read along with me (bold emphasis added):

Quote:Luke 16:19-31 There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day: And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores, And desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table: moreover the dogs came and licked his sores. And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried; And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom. And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame. But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented. And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence. Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father's house: For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment. Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them. And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent. And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.

So what have we learned here about our loving Lord?

Partly, this is a parable about the torments of Hell but it also has a clear message: the only warning we shall receive is from the scriptures. "They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them."

The rich man begs for the kind of warning you claim to have received and our Lord, through this parable, makes it clear there shall be no such warnings. If you are not persuaded by scripture, you will not be persuaded by the testimony of the dead and it shall not be allowed.

Do you dare question the words of Jesus? Are you some sort of special exception to the rules set by our Holy scripture?
