So Anne Frank and all other dead Jews are burning in Hell forever, right?

● Heb 2:1-3 . . We must pay more careful attention, therefore, to what we
have heard, so that we do not drift away. For if the message spoken by
angels was binding, and every violation and disobedience received its just
punishment, how shall we escape if we ignore such a great salvation?

The books keeping records per Rev 20:11-15 list every sin that folks have
committed from first to last; which for some individuals will likely take up
quite a number of pages.

If I'm reading Heb 2:1-3 correctly, then each one of the sins on those pages
merits retribution.

Let's say an individual was dishonest on 150 occasions during their life and
retribution for dishonesty is five lashes per lie. That would add up to 750
lashes; and that's just for their dishonesty. If they have other sins to answer
for, proceedings could get very ugly.

[St. SteVen]

There are levels in hell, some have it worse than others.
God's wrath burns to the lowest hell.
Good people are not saved, as there are none that do good.

I do however believe infants and young children do not go to hell.
Jews are no better than gentile sinners.

How did you arrive at these conclusions?

- There are levels in hell, some have it worse than others.
- God's wrath burns to the lowest hell.
- Good people are not saved, as there are none that do good.
- I do however believe infants and young children do not go to hell.
- Jews are no better than gentile sinners.

Through me; the way to the eternal city.
Through me; the way to eternal sadness.
Through me; the way to lost people.

Justice moved my supreme maker:
I was shaped by divine power,
By highest wisdom, and by primal love.

Before me, nothing was created
That is not eternal: and eternally I endure.
Abandon all hope, you that enter here.
The Divine Comedy
by Dante Alighieri
Inferno: canto 3, v.1-9

Dante's poetic epic is called a comedy because it has a happy ending as
opposed to a tragedy; at least for Dante anyway. The souls he and Virgil
pass along the way through the Inferno portion of Dante's odyssey will
never, nor anon, have a happy ending; hence the sign above the entrance:
"Abandon all hope, you that enter here."

Webster's defines "despair" as: to no longer have any hope or belief that a
situation will improve or change. Well; down in the Inferno section of
Dante's concept, despair is a way of life. It's likely not much different in the
real inferno.

When people first get there, no doubt they start asking around to find out
how long they have to stay. It must be very devastating to encounter folk
who've been languishing in the fiery region of the netherworld since
practically the dawn of Man.

NOTE: Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's version of The Divine Comedy is a
difficult read. A.S. Kline's version is somewhat easier, but still a bit of a
challenge. I finally opted for a Cliff's Notes to get me thru the Inferno
section.
