Many people today are curious about the life after death, but it is impossible for us to obtain any answers with our limited capacities.
 
The Holy Spirit inspired the Dr. Jaerock Lee, Senior Pastor of the Manmin Central Church, Seoul, South Korea, to learn about the life after death and the miserable hell. South Korean publisher Urim Books has compiled his messages and published the book Hell so that countless people may know about hell with clarity and accuracy.

The book is a vivid and comprehensive account of hell, which has been partially revealed to us in the Bible.
 
Hell consists of nine chapters.

Chapter 1 "Are There Really Heaven and Hell?" portrays an overall structure of heaven and hell. Through the parable of the rich man and the beggar Lazarus in the Bible, the Upper Grave - where the saved souls from Old Testament times had been waiting - and the Lower Grave - where unsaved souls are tormented - are explained.

In chapter 2 "The Way of Salvation for Those Who Never Heard the Gospel" the judgment of conscience is discussed. Specific criteria of the judgment for many cases are also described: unborn fetuses from abortion or miscarriage, children from birth to five years of age, and children from the age of six to preteen years.

Chapter 3 "The Lower Grave and the Identity of the Messengers of Hell" elaborates on a waiting place in The Lower Grave. People, after death, stay at the waiting place in the Lower Grave for three days and then are sent to different places in the Lower Grave according to the severity of their sins, and cruelly tormented there until the Judgment of the Great White Throne. The identity of evil spirits governing the Lower Grave is also explained.

Chapter 4 "Punishments in the Lower Grave on Unsaved Children" testifies that even some immature children unable to tell right from wrong do not receive salvation. Various sorts of punishments inflicted upon children are categorized by the age group: punishments for fetuses and suckling, toddlers, children of the age of three to five, and children from six years of age to twelve.

Chapter 5
"Punishments for People Who Die after Puberty Years" explains punishments inflicted on people older than adolescents. Punishments for anyone over the age of roughly thirteen are divided into four levels in accordance with the severity of their sins. The more grave people's sins are, the greater punishments they receive.

Chapter 6 "Punishments for Blaspheming the Holy Spirit" reminds the readers that as written in the Bible, there are certain unforgivable sins of which you cannot repent. The chapter also describes various kinds of punishments through detailed examples.

Chapter 7 "Salvation during the Great Tribulation" warns us that we are living in the end of the age and the Lord's Advent is very near. The chapter explains in detail what will happen at the time of Christ's Advent, and that people left behind during the Tribulation can only receive salvation through martyrdom. It also urges you to prepare yourself as a beautiful bride of the Lord Jesus so that you participate in the Seven-year Wedding Banquet, and to avoid being left behind after the Rapture.
 
Chapter 8 "Punishments in Hell after the Great Judgment" elaborates on the Judgment at the end of the Millennium, how unsaved souls will be moved into hell from the Lower Grave, various kinds of punishments inflicted upon them, and the destiny of the evil spirits as well as their punishments.
 
Chapter 9 "Why Did the God of Love Have to Prepare Hell?" explains God's abundant and overflowing love, which was demonstrated through the sacrifice of His one and only Son. The final chapter explains in detail why this God of love had to make hell.
 

 
The book has been written in Korean originally, and translated into 14 languages: English, Chinese(Traditional and Simplified), Japanese, Malay, Indonesian, Hindi, Spanish, Russian, French, German, Finnish, Italian and Portuguese. Its translations are ranked as bestseller in many countries.
 
The book is available through Amazon.com, and its e-book editions are available through Amzon Kindle and Apple iBookstore etc.
