Bible Question: The Bible mentions a place called Hades. Is Hades Hell? |
Bible Answer: If you are talking about the traditional Hell (Lake of Fire) then the answer is NO. No one at this point in time is in the Lake of Fire. Look at Revelation 19:20 - 20:15 and you will see what I mean. If you are talking about Sheol then YES there are people there now. The Greeks referred to this as Hades. Though I have read that some believe that Hades and Sheol are different places. Note the Revelation passage states that Hades is thrown into the Lake of Fire. |
