Shiloah, read revelations where there will be holes in the earth where people can look down and see the torment of those who rejected Christ. Keep looking and searching. Pray and ask God to show you the truth and He will answer.
So,, now your teaching that God made holes in the earth so that the saved can view the wicked?
LOLOLOL,,, Seriously,,you must be out of your mind! lololol
Did He do that,, so the folks that have loved ones in hell,, can be checked on by their saved reletives?
What be the purpose of these holes? Is it so we can see our sons and daughters and various loved ones suffering and in shear torture for ever and ever,,,, then can we look at Him and tell him how awsome he is that he is able to make our loved ones that rejected Him burn in pain and torture for billions and billions of years,,, all because of a few short years of sin?
That sounds fair eh?
A 20 year old,, is out partying, doing drugs,, driving his car, listening to music,, never has been to church, has had no formal teaching, has a dad that couldn't care less. a mother that is an atheist,,,and then he hits a tree and is killed upon impact...
And you and your god decide the only just punishment for a few years of sinning is an eternity in hellfire?
Chances are this fellow didn't live 10 years past the age of accountability. And you and your god think billions upon billions upon billions upon billions upon billions upon billions of years in hellfire is a fair and balanced approach to dealing with a person who has sinned for a decade?
Tell me,, If cuba started torturing their people,, How many countries would demand that it stop?
Here in the United States, we are not allowed to torture people.
We are not allowed to "waterboard" people. It's considered torture.
If a Country tortures it's citizens,, other Countries begin talk of war, of international condemnation,, Economic Sanctions, ect...
But you!,, YOU have God making holes in the earth so we can look down and watch the suffering?
You need to reconsider your Doctrine.
The Bible says the wicked shall perish,, not live on forever!
"But the wicked shall perish, the enemies of the Lord shall vanish,, into smoke they shall vanish away"
The gift of God is eternal life
The wages of sin is death.
There is no Bible teaching that says the wages of sin are eternal life in some flame.
"Sin when it is finished, bringeth forth death." Not eternal life in some flames.
