Bill Wiese wrote a book entitled 23 Minutes In Hell
This is a paragraph out of his book:

I believe that the only reason God took me to hell was to draw attention to His Word on this subject.  It is not that He needs my help, or anybody else's.  However, I believe time is getting short, and there are some unusual things God is doing in the earth today to help people awaken to the truth.  He is imploring people to listen to His Word.  This is not a condemning message, but a warning message.  God does not want anyone to go down the heavily traveled road that many are on.

For the most part, hell is not a popular subject in churches today.  Many churches do not even believe or teach that hell is a literal burning place.  The pastors in these churches do not want to offend their people by telling them there is a real hell to shun.  Other people are offended by a message about hell and think Christians should keep their beliefs to themselves.  I can understand that, and we should be very respectful of the beliefs of others.  However, should we just be respectful an not give them warning?  Try and look at it this way:  You are sleeping in a hotel room, and it is very early in the morning.  Someone starts yelling, "Fire! Fire!" You not only wouldn't mind that person waking you up, but also you would be extremely grateful for the warning if there was a real fire.  The inconvenience would be welcomed in exchange for your life.  Some people just don't realize there is a real fire to avoid.

IMPORTANT FACTS ABOUT HELL

Is hell a literal burning place?
ABSOLUTELY
The place is an inferno.  I saw the pit---a mile across and consumed with fire.  I saw the liquid fire that falls like rain.  I felt the extreme heat, and I smelled the stench of burning things.  I do not believe the scripture references are merely symbolic or allegorical; I believe they speak of real fire.  There are many important scriptures, and I urge you to read each one of them so that you can make your own informed decision.  What God's Word says is far more important than the story of my visit to that place.

Psalm 37:20 But the wicked shall perish; And the enemies of the Lord, Like the splendor of the meadows, shall vanish.
Into smoke they shall vanish away.

Matthew 13:42 "and will cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

Malachi 4:1  "For behold, the day is coming, burning like an oven, and all the proud, yes, all who do wickedly will be stubble.  And the day which is coming shall burn them up,'' says the Lord of hosts, "that will leave them neither root nor branch.

Luke 16:24  "Then he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus that he may dip the tip of his
 finger in water and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.'

John 15:6 "If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them and throw
them into the fire, and they are burned.

Jude 7 as Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities around them in a similar manner to these, having given themselves over to
sexual immorality and gone after strange flesh, are set forth as an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.

Revelation 9:2  And he opened the bottomless pit, and smoke arose out of the pit like the smoke of a great furnace.
And the sun and the air were darkened because of the smoke of the pit.

Revelation 14:10 "he himself shall also drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out full strength into
the cup of His indignation. And he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels and in
the presence of the Lamb.

 

 

 

 

It is our bounden (bounden means morally obligatory or morally obligated) duty to warn sinners of their fearful peril.
To remain silent is criminal
A.W. Pink

Satan will do everything in his power to hold people captive in sin and to drag them down to the prison of
eternal separation.
Billy Graham

The scripture speaks of the "Lake of Fire" (Revelation 20:14).  "Wailing and gnashing of teeth" (Matthew 13:42) where their worm does nto die  and the fire is not quenched (Mark 9:44).  If we really believed in Hell, we would plead with sinners.
Ray Comfort

Hades is a place of torment and agony...The judgment and hell will be more tolerable for some than for others...The fact that Hell will not be the same for everybody in no way implies that it will be a good place for anybody.  People in Hell will be separated from God and all that is good forever.  As much as I dislike the idea, I do believe that the lake of fire (Hell) is a real, literal place.
Charles Stanley

The duration of Hell is endless.  Although there are degrees of punishment, Hell is terrible for all the damned.  The occupants are the devil, evil angels, and unsaved human beings
Robert Peterson

Indeed all other senses will be affected too: the ear with hideous noises, shrieks and yells from felow damned sinners; the eye with fearful, ghastly, an horrible spectacles; the smell with suffocating odors and nasty stench, worse than that of carrion or that which comes out of an open sepulcher
Thomas Vincent

There is no reason the torments of Hell could not include physical fire
Erwin Lutzer

Hell is going to be eternity filled with grief and pain, an unquenchable fire, according to the Bible.
Franklin Graham

The lost will be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord (II Thessalonians 1:9.) No one lives without God...  He gives you every breath you take.  His kindness surrounds...He makes the sun rise on both the evil and the good and sends rain on the unjust as well as the just (Matthew 5:45) He gives you the beauty of a summer eveing, the coolness of a refreshing breeze...He delights you with the taste of fresh crusty bread or the juice of a ripe peach.  Perhaps you have experienced the ecstasy of love.  These are God's gifts...  All of these are blessings from God...  But in Hell, all this will be taken from you...  all the dignity that you now have as an image bearer of God will be stripped from you...  The wicked will burn with fire but they will not be consumed
Edward Donnelly

It is an experience of intense anguish...  a sense of loneliness...  There is the realization that this separation is permanent...  Thus, hopelessness comes over the individual.
Millard J. Erickson

Hell is a place of unrelieved torment and horrible misery...a place of impenetrable darkness... a place of fire...  a place of unrelieved torment for both body and soul.  Hell will be horrible for everybody there, but some people will suffer more than others.
John MacArthur

The reality of Hell is so far beyond ou experience that language cannot adequately describe it.
Edward Donnelly

For hell is viewed by our Lord Jesus Christ not as "made for man," but "made for the devil and his angels."  Humans as such were made for fellowship with God and for eternal glory.  That such creatures should be banished forever into the outer darkness with no escape exit, should fill us with a sense of horror.
Sinclair B. Ferguson

I know of no one who has overstated the terror of Hell...  We are meant to tremble and feel dread.  We are meant to recoil from the reality.  Not be denying it, but by fleeing from it into the arms of Jesus, who died to save us from it.
John Piper

"Fire is the most affective and painful, therefore God has appointed fire to be for the punishment of the body?"
Thomas Vincent

There is a real fire in hell, as truly as you now have a real body--a fire exactly like that which we have on earth
in everything except this---that it will not consume, though it will torture you.

Charles Spurgeon

There are many other scripture verses on this point.
