Detailed explanation-1: -The chief punishment of hell is eternal separation from God” (CCC 1035). During an Audience in 1999, Pope John Paul II commented: “images of hell that Sacred Scripture presents to us must be correctly interpreted. They show the complete frustration and emptiness of life without God.
Detailed explanation-2: -In Christianity, Hell has traditionally been regarded as a place of punishment for wrongdoing or sin in the mortal life, as a manifestation of divine justice.
Detailed explanation-3: -The Book of Revelation contains the image of a “lake of fire” and “burning sulphur” where “the devil, the beast, and false prophet” will be “tormented day and night for ever and ever” (Revelation 20:10) along with those who worship the beast or receive its mark (Revelation 14:11).
Detailed explanation-4: -God has pronounced that the penalty of sin is spiritual death and separation from God in a place of judgment called hell: “For the wages of sin is death” (Romans 6:23). Jesus clearly taught that sinners were condemned in sin and would perish and go to hell if they didn’t believe in Him as their Savior (John 3:16-18).
