I have a theory, just mine, that Heaven is being reunited with our God in the purity of an absolute love beyond any human imagining.

Hell would be an eternity held away from that love in an unimaginable torment.

Men hate God and love their sin.. being away from God would just be a continuation of what they love here..

I do believe that the physical pain will pale in comparison to the mental anguish of all the missed chances people had.

An eternity of regret of why they didn’t listen when they had the opportunity.

We often think of heaven being so far beyond the best we can imagine, and yet the same holds true for hell. It is worse than we can ever imagine. All the horrifying images of it can’t compare to its reality any more than the most beautiful images can compare to heaven’s reality.

You are 100% correct.

I have experienced both in this life and the experience of both is beyond words.

Being with God is pure total bliss. Being separated from God is pure torture.

Being caught in the middle where I catch glimpses of both is the wildest roller coaster ride possible and is also torture. Our souls are but seeds planted here on this earth to grow, up out of the darkness of the earth to utilize the Light to grow. This is why Jesus explained what He did in Matthew 13 when the Disciples asked to understand the parable of the tares in the wheat.
