Replying to Nobody

I dunno... The Sermon on the mount, at a couple of chapters long, is the longest recorded sermon and it was the opposite of hellfire and brimstone.

Additionally, Jesus made references to ghenna a place that actually existed, it was a burning trash heap and sometimes even bodies were thrown there. If I recall correctly the other word that is translated into "hell" in English refered to a valley were child sacrifice happened, that is the burning of live children to demons. Those are more likely allegories that people of his day understood.

I say this with love. Picking out a particular sermon out of many many sayings and saying since this doesn't mention that therefore it is not true makes no sense. Ghenna is a place people refer to hell because it is a representation of it. It is a fire that never goes out. I am somewhat new to being a real Christian so I don't have all the answers for you. But I would suggest you don't lean on your own understanding. Read the Bible and try to get from it what it actually says. This is a really good sermon on Hell that I watched last night. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AVzbh_dLq3s
