Hell was originally made for the devil and his angels, not human beings; however, those human beings who cling to sin and reject Jesus will go to hell. Hell does NOT burn for eternity, it is the RESULTS that are eternal!!There are many verses in scripture to support it, even in Revelation it's called the "second death"... death means just that... DEATH, not burning for eternal ages! Infact, the lost are NEVER promised eternal life, not even in a place called hell! Only the saved are!! It's one of the most horrendous doctrines drummed up by satan in all of the bible to turn people from a loving God and make them think he's some tyrant in the sky waiting to burn us up! It started in paganism and was adopted into Christianity, and it's just one of many false doctrines that are rampant in most churches today!
