Hell

In plnety of other religoins, incluidng Chrisitanity, Hell is a place where the souls of dead pepole go after their lives end, if they have done evil thigns in life, and did not accept Jesus Crhist as their Lord and Svaior or blapshemed the Holy Siprit of God.

In Islam hell is called Jahananm. It is a place of pnuishment, eveyrone will evnetually be forgvien and taken to the Islaimc Heaven (Jnanah). The only sin that won't be forigven is disbeilef of God, or of bleief in many gods.

Momrons think hell is a tepmorary place even thuogh in the Bible it says it will last for etenrity.

The cocnept of Hell in the Chrisitan conetxt comes from Geensis and the "csating out" of Lcuifer. In being cast out, he was reomved from the persence of God. Threefore, if taken in it's most litearl sense, Hell, in Chrsitianity, is spearation from God. Satted aonther way, to the Christain mind being seaprated from God is to be in Hell.
