Hey guys we had a visitor at my Church last night who said that hell was 2500 degrees(I am unsure celsius or farenheight) any insights on where this comes from....I looked up the melting point of sulfur which is around 200 degrees so that is not it...I am leaning towards a vivid imagination but curious. Thanks
Wonder how he would come up with that?
When I was really young I had heard hell was 7 times hotter than fire, I have no clue how some people came up with that answer either. :2c:
The typical oven temp for the creamation of human bodies is 2500 degrees.
I suppose someone could say that all those people describing hell have a vivid imagination, but since one sounds like the next I don't see it as being imaginative at all.
:grin:
The temperature needed for cooking a tv dinner?? :icon_jokercolor:
The hell temps seem to vary a lot. Perhaps they have an ice-age going on because others report 5700K (earth core)
and 1.5700.000K (sun core)
Hell is freezing over :laughing7:

:thumbsup: Great posts guys.... Tv dinners...salisbury steak.....And yeah thats kind of what I thought ....we could say in the imagination but not very creative...
HELL is in no danger of freezing over. Scientists have calculated how hot eternity could be for unrepentant sinners and it is 445C, writes Mark Austin.
Using descriptions from the Bible, the researchers discovered that heaven could also prove uncomfortable. In paradise, those who are saved should expect a sultry 232C.
For their calculation of hell's temperature, the scientists used a passage in the Book of Revelations which relates that "the fearful and unbelieving . . . shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone".
"This passage implies that the temperature of hell must be equal to or somewhat below the boiling point of brimstone, better known as sulphur, which is 717.6 Kelvin [445C] at normal pressure," said Jorge Mira Perez, a physicist at the University of Santiago de Compostela in Spain, who carried out the work.
Perez and his colleague Jose Vina, also a physicist, even consulted the Bishop of Madrid to check whether their choice of passages and interpretations was correct.
To calculate the temperature of heaven, they used a passage from Isaiah that describes the brightness of the sun and moon there: "Moreover the light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun, and the light of the sun shall be sevenfold, as the light of seven days." They then used a complex law of physics known as the Stefan-Boltzmann fourth-power law of radiation to deduce heaven's temperature to be 232C.

According to a recent report by the Doctrine Commission on behalf of the Church of England, hell should be seen as a state of nothingness rather than eternal torment and burning fires.

The exact pressure in earth core (where hell is) is unknown. Put certainly higher than 'normal'.
But who cares. I really doubt your nerve system can tell the difference between 700K or 70000K.
Both are completly outside measuring range :laughing7:

Revelation 22:5 And there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God giveth them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever.
Without the sun the temp of heaven will be near zero K. 0K

dosent pressure make diamonds out of coal? :Sparkletooth:
euty
And blisters :laughing7:
So: weeds -> coal -> diamonds -> the shining one :laughing7:
