WHAT ITS LIKE IN HELL
Jesus told the story of a rich man and a beggar. The rich man had no name but the poor man was named Lazarus. After both had died, the rich man called for Father Abraham to have poor Lazarus bring him water while he was suffering in hell. When Abraham refused, the rich man asked Father Abraham to send Lazarus back (resurrection) to warn his five brothers about the suffering that was ahead for sinners like him. Again Abraham refused, saying they already had warning from Moses and the Prophets.
“‘No, father Abraham,’ he said, ‘but if someone from the dead goes to them, they will repent’“. Abraham replied, “‘If they do not listen to Moses and the Prophets, they will not be convinced even if someone rises from the dead’” (Luke 16:27-31).
Note that sinners in hell cannot boss around the poor once they’ve arrived. And note that the rich man had full grasp of his mind and emotions in hell.
Let’s warn people while we still have a chance.
