It is stunning to see the mistranslated in the English language effort of the King James translation. We know that the KJV was translated in1611 A.D. We know that ,for purposes only known to the translator's , words were changed from the original meaning of Hebrew and Greek-- Very important words.
As discussed elsewhere, the Greek word Ekklesia ( meaning "The called out") was literally changed to the word "Church". "Church" was derived from circe or kirke. That was the Pagan circle gathering to have their occult services.
The "called out" are clearly the "believers" in Christ as savior. The current morphed "church" derived from paganism is that big building you go to to pay the professional Christian speaker collecting money "for God". God owns all money and every molecule existent on the earth. He doesn't need a thing.
There is not a whisper in the New Testament about Tithing.
Then we have the misinterpretation of "judgment" . You will actually see wide spread misunderstanding that one who is Saved by atonement , one who is imputed righteous all by the sacrifice of God's Son and stands as a joint heir with His Son is going to face "judgment". The idea is spawned by the "professional Christian to get you to tithe and do "good works" That is a total non biblical fabrication by those desperate to reimpose legalistic conduct on you for their monetary benefit. Your performance has nothing to do with God's "gift" of redemption for you through your belief ( accepting as true) that Jesus was HIS Son for your salvation. Nothing else.
But here we focus on the deliberate changing of meaning of the Hebrew and Greek words to the word "Hell" when Hell is not anywhere in the writing . Again, I speculate this was done to control the flock and to scare the weak minded into legalistic adherence to submission to the giving to the priesthood ( preacher) ,not required in the New Testament , for their the house payment , car payment and retirement in the mortgaged "Church" building they are paying off for the obligatory Sunday "worship" and "Praise and worship" sing along.
Note that the Catholic Latin Vulgate in 390 A.D. imposed the concept of eternal burning Hell for it's purposes before King James did the deed in 1611 but his minions were not translating the Latin translation of the Bible. The King's bunch was translating Hebrew and Greek, so I lay the full blame on this fraud on the King James mistranslated version . "Hell" is not in "God's word" as written.
The issue is the sinner's infinite confinement to a burning "Hell" by a "loving God".
The word "Hell" appears 54 places throughout the KJV Bible. The old Testament was written in Hebrew so let's start there and find out what their words actually meant .
The Hebrew word is SHEOL means " the grave or pit" .The Greek word, with the same definition as the Hebrew, actually appears 65 times in the Old Testament. There is nothing in the original text writings about eternal life in a "burning hell".
Apart from joining God in heaven through belief in Jesus as the Son of God, you are dumped in the ground and finished physically and spiritually. ( no more brain waves.)
Now look at the original Greek. In the New Testament there are three separate words misrepresented as eternal existence in" Hell". Those words are Hades (appearing 11 times in the NT), Tartarus ( appearing 1 time) It was the region below the grave reserved for only for Satan and fallen angels.
Hades was used in the Greek translations for Sheol of Hebrew text in the New Testament. Therefore, it means "Grave or Pit" .
That leaves the once used Greek word tartarus . It was used for fallen ANGELS ONLY!!
2 Peter 2:4
For if God did not spare the angels who sinned, but cast them down to hell ( from tartarus) and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved for judgment.
That scripture is not for man. It is for "fallen angels". You are not a fallen angle.
Finally, we move to the last word ( painfully mistranslated into "hell") but note that thus far there is not a hint of the eternal damnation concept.
Christ actually used the Aramaic word "Gehenna".
Jerusalem had a city dump like all cities it's size. As refuse was deposited there it was occasionally burned in a smoldering fire into obliteration. Nothing survived or lived "eternally" .Unless it rained,the fires was working in the garbage dump most of the time. Occasionally, the indigent who died were dumped there. The hill "Golgotha" (not properly translated "Calvary", which was a Roman term ) was near Gehenna which was in the valley of Hinnom within eye shot of Golgotha.
The fires of Gehenna were not referred to by Christ as "eternal" . It was the permanent destruction of those who do not believe. Nothing from the fires of Gehenna lives on . All is consumed and ended and obliterated.
The only scripture support for "eternal hell is in Matthew 18:8. Lets look at the gross intentional mistranslation here.

MATTHEW 8:18
MATTHEW
MATTHEW
“aIF your hand or your foot causes you to stumble, cut it off and throw it from you; it is better for you to enter life crippled or lame, than 1to have two hands or two feet and be cast into the Eternal fire."
The actual Greek word from which "eternal" was
manufactured from "AIONION".
Guess what? The word simply means " the AGE" , not
Eternal!!. an Age is terminal by definition it is not "eternal.
"to have two hands or two feet and be cast into the THE AGE."
"to have two hands or two feet and be cast into the THE AGE."
So, in conclusion, "Hell" IS
not in theoriginal text. These mistranslations are
over and over in the
KJV using new terms to control the flock in
over and over in the
KJV using new terms to control the flock in
blasphemy of the true meaning of the "Word of
God". The vested interests of the professional
Christians is furthered but Gospel is truly and
intentionally distorted.
