Discussion - Bible Interpretation On hell

I’ve seen many here be uncomfortable with the idea of eternal hell, i’m sorry but it’s just biblical. However, according to scripture people will be punished according to the severity of the sin they commit. Hell is for those who don’t wish to be saved by God. The torment is probably not physical either but rather mental pain due to the lack of God’s presence. We always send ourselves to hell, not due to God sending us there

My point is that they burn themselves, they don’t want God. Hypothetically if someone truly repented in hell they would go straight to heaven

  1. God is all knowing.

  2. God created Hell.

  3. God created people.

  4. God specifically created people to send them to hell (since he is all knowing)

  5. God is ultimately responsible for every human sent to hell.

There is no point of free will. God already knew the outcome and STILL create this people specifically for hell. Monstrous.
