Men have imagined hell as a place of eternal torture where all who disobey my laws are sent. And they have created a hell for those with great faults, have imagined another place for those with lesser faults, and yet another for those who have done neither wrong nor right.

In this period, I will abolish with my word that hell that men have created through their religions and erroneous interpretations. They have done this to instill fear, placing a veil of ignorance upon humanity.

The spirit cannot suffer the physical pain that the flesh experiences. The suffering of the spirit comes when the conscience makes him aware of his deeds, making the spirit see and understand clearly his mistakes and imperfections.

There is only confusion in the heart of humanity, and that confusion forms part of a foundation upon which rests the beliefs of most individuals.

Do you believe that I, your Father, have created places specifically destined to punish you, thus eternally taking vengeance for your faults?

Or what benefit would it be to Me, if I punished you with eternal fire? You would only curse eternally a God whom you felt judged you injustly, cruelly and vengefully.

I did not create death nor hell. When My Spirit conceived the idea of creation, I only felt love. Thus, only life emerged from My bosom. If death and hell exist they are human deeds, though small, and you know that nothing human is eternal.

I have told you in this period: Do not harbour the idea of hell that exists among humanity. There is no hell other than the life you have created with your wars and hatred. In the Hereafter, there is no fire other than the repentance of the spirit when the conscience points out his mistakes. Hell is a symbol of the great sorrow, terrible remorse, desperation, pain, and bitterness experienced by those who have greatly sinned. But they will free themselves from those feelings as their spirits evolve with love.

Question your conscience and you will know if you are living in hell and atoning for your faults, or if you are experiencing the peace of Heaven.

What men call Heaven or hell are not specific sites; they symbolize the essence of the deeds which the spirit will harvest when he reaches the spiritual valley. Each one lives in his own hell, inhabiting his own world of restitution or blissful joys, which gives elevation and harmony with the Divine spirit.

How different spiritual reality is from that which man has imagined! Neither is My justice what you believe it to be, nor is it as easily and quickly attained as you have imagined. Also spiritual restitution is not as you have described it, nor is temptation a spirit.

My justice does not condemn anyone and much less for eternity. The fire described in the scriptures, is the unyielding conscience that will burn like fire until the spirit is purified of every blemish. That fire will cease when all trace of sin disappears. Understand that it is not I who dictates your sentence, but you yourself.

If human sins were punished with fire, then the material bodies of all sinners would have to be thrown into the fire while alive on earth, because they would no longer feel anything once they were dead. The physical body does not elevate toward the spiritual space but descends to the inner surface of the earth once it has concluded its mission. Once there, it unites with nature, where material life began.

If you believe the eternal fire is for the spirit and not the body, then this is another grave error, because there does not exist any material elements in the spiritual kingdom, nor does fire have any effect upon the spirit. What is born of flesh, is flesh, and what is born of spirit, is spirit.
