Jehovah's witnesses

1- It is not clearly stated about the punishment, i will answer this one, the other one i will answer in comment, because this is a lot. i want to make it clear not just leave you clueless. I know when you see people doing bad things to each other you really want justice at a moment notice. We feel so bad that we want something equally bad to happen to whoever is causing such pain. Jehovah is not like that, tho we have his sense of justice but our mind is not as patient or well suited to comprehension perfect love. After all Jehovah's major quality is LOVE. Some Bible translations use the word "hell" for the Hebrew word "Sheol" and the matching Greek word "Hades," both of which refer to the common grave of mankind. (Psalm 16:10; Acts 2:27) Many people believe in a fiery hell. However, the Bible teaches otherwise. Psalm 16:10 10 For you will not leave me in the Grave. You will not allow your loyal one to see the pit. Acts 2:27 27 because you will not leave me in the Grave, nor will you allow your loyal one to see corruption. Those in hell are unconscious and so cannot feel pain. "There is no work nor devising nor knowledge nor wisdom in Sheol.""Ecclesiastes 9:10. Good people go to hell. The faithful men Jacob and Job expected to go there."Genesis 37:35; Job 14:13. Genesis 37:35 35 And all his sons and all his daughters kept trying to comfort him, but he kept refusing to take comfort, saying: "I will go down into the Grave mourning my son!" And his father continued weeping for him. Job 14:13 13 O that in the Grave you would conceal me, That you would hide me until your anger passes by, That you would set a time limit for me and remember me! Death, not torment in a fiery hell, is the penalty for sin. "He who has died has been acquitted from his sin.""Romans 6:7. Eternal torment would violate God"s justice. (Deuteronomy 32:4) When the first man, Adam, sinned, God told him that his punishment would simply be to pass out of existence: "Dust you are and to dust you will return." (Genesis 3:19) God would have been lying if he were actually sending Adam to a fiery hell. God does not even contemplate eternal torment. The idea that he would punish people in hell fire is contrary to the Bible"s teaching that "God is love.""1 John 4:8; we have a major lesson to learn about this place call hell. it actually was a real place on the earth, a place that was used to disposal dead body, not living, but dead body where it will be burn. but at one point this place was indeed being misuse by human. and Jehovah himself told us human how he feels about such and action. Jeremiah 7:31. Jeremiah 7:31 31 They have built the high places of ToE7;pheth, which is in the Valley of the Son of HinE7;nom, in order to burn their sons and their daughters in the fire, something that I had not commanded and that had never even come into my heart." the burning of human is an act that Jehovah find disgusting. so then why would he create such a place for human kind? you and i can see the injustice in such action without even being taught of justice. Bethany was a small village that lay two miles (3 km) from Jerusalem. (John 11:18) A tragedy unfolded there a few weeks before Jesus" death. Lazarus, one of Jesus" close friends, unexpectedly became seriously ill and died. When Jesus first heard the news, he told his disciples that Lazarus was asleep and that he intended to awaken him. (John 11:11) But Jesus" disciples did not grasp his meaning, so Jesus told them plainly: "Lazarus has died.""John 11:14. i say think about it this way. before you where born do you remember anything? no, it was like you where in a deep sleep where your mined did not existed, knowledge did not existed nothing existed for you. Does that sound any familiar? Ecclesiastes 9:10
