Is it better to reign in h**l or serve in heaven?

Question

Is it better to reign in h**l or serve in heaven?

Answer 1

Serve in Heaven.  (NO ONE will 'reign' in h**l.) It will be a total separation from God Himself.

Answer 2

Meh I just plan on overthrowing God when I die anyway, problem solved.

Answer 3

I believe I'll pass on both options.

Answer 4

God reigns in both heaven and h**l.

I, like all other people redeemed through the shed blood of Jesus Christ, am co-heir to the throne with Him in heaven.

The presence of God will/is not felt by the inhabitants of h**l, even though God is everywhere.

There is no place to be found where man can hide from God.

Although the time may well be coming when God turns His eyes completely away from h**l, it will remain ordered the way He decreed.

This from the psalmist David, who knew God:

Psa 139:7  Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence?  

Psa 139:8   If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in h**l, behold, thou art there.

Answer 5

i'd much rather serve in Heaven

Answer 6

thats your choice do you wanna burn or serve

Answer 7

This quote, "better to reign in h**l" comes complements of Dante's inferno by the way.

I will answer the question using the imagery of heavy drug or alcohol indulgence. It has been said by many the drunk or dope feign they enter another world where they can be more free and focused than ever before. As the high exits, the preponderance of guilt, shame and disgust enters and reality takes over.

The human body houses a soul that will either reign (with Jesus) or burn from condemnation. If you believe in God then you have to believe in a soul that needs God for survival. If you believe the Bible, it says God will separate sinners from Himself which automatically takes away joy, peace, contentment, and hope. Sin is like a drug that causes us to see things that are not real, leading to death.

I believe Satan chose a temporary high for himself (leading to death) and is leading humans and his angelic followers to this environment where God is absent. So in that way he is ruler of h**l because he undoubtedly has led a majority of its future citizens. Nevertheless, when Christ returns he will even lose that power, and just suffer like everyone else.

The real question is will I really live forever if I go to h**l? Yes!

In the Bible, (Matthew 8:12; 22:13 - Revelation 20:10) describe weeping and gnashing of teeth as an eternal existence, brimstone (or sulfur) are the environment for unrepentant sinners who cannot claim Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord. His Lordship mean we are in His company and family, therefore citizens of Heaven. He is Savior because He didn't run from death but faced it as a completely righteous man. He was the first and only completely righteous person to die and thus he could plea on the behalf of all men. What Jesus says before Heavens courts each time someone calls on Him is, "this person with my help will be fit for Heaven, you've got my name on it."

Answer 18

Here you pick:

Rev 21:1   Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the old heaven and the old earth had disappeared. And the sea was also gone.  

Rev 21:2   And I saw the holy city, the new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven like a beautiful bride prepared for her husband.  

Rev 21:3   I heard a loud shout from the throne, saying, "Look, the home of God is now among his people! He will live with them, and they will be his people. God himself will be with them.[fn1]  

Rev 21:4   He will remove all of their sorrows, and there will be no more death or sorrow or crying or pain. For the old world and its evils are gone forever."  

Rev 21:5   And the one sitting on the throne said, "Look, I am making all things new!" And then he said to me, "Write this down, for what I tell you is trustworthy and true."  

Rev 21:6   And he also said, "It is finished! I am the Alpha and the Omega-the Beginning and the End. To all who are thirsty I will give the springs of the water of life without charge!  

Rev 21:7   All who are victorious will inherit all these blessings, and I will be their God, and they will be my children.  

Rev 21:8   But cowards who turn away from me, and unbelievers, and the corrupt, and murderers, and the immoral, and those who practice witchcraft, and idol worshipers, and all liars-their doom is in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur. This is the second death."  

Rev 21:9   Then one of the seven angels who held the seven bowls containing the seven last plagues came and said to me, "Come with me! I will show you the bride, the wife of the Lamb."  

Rev 21:10   So he took me in spirit[fn2] to a great, high mountain, and he showed me the holy city, Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God.  

Rev 21:11   It was filled with the glory of God and sparkled like a precious gem, crystal clear like jasper.  

Rev 21:12   Its walls were broad and high, with twelve gates guarded by twelve angels. And the names of the twelve tribes of Israel were written on the gates.  

Rev 21:13   There were three gates on each side-east, north, south, and west.  

Rev 21:14   The wall of the city had twelve foundation stones, and on them were written the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.  

Rev 21:15   The angel who talked to me held in his hand a gold measuring stick to measure the city, its gates, and its wall.  

Rev 21:16   When he measured it, he found it was a square, as wide as it was long. In fact, it was in the form of a cube, for its length and width and height were each 1,400 miles.[fn3]  

Rev 21:17   Then he measured the walls and found them to be 216 feet thick[fn4] (the angel used a standard human measure).  

Rev 21:18   The wall was made of jasper, and the city was pure gold, as clear as glass.  

Rev 21:19   The wall of the city was built on foundation stones inlaid with twelve gems: the first was jasper, the second sapphire, the third agate, the fourth emerald,  

Rev 21:20   the fifth onyx, the sixth carnelian, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth chrysoprase, the eleventh jacinth, the twelfth amethyst.  

Rev 21:21   The twelve gates were made of pearls-each gate from a single pearl! And the main street was pure gold, as clear as glass.  

Rev 21:22   No temple could be seen in the city, for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are its temple.  

Rev 21:23   And the city has no need of sun or moon, for the glory of God illuminates the city, and the Lamb is its light.  

Rev 21:24   The nations of the earth will walk in its light, and the rulers of the world will come and bring their glory to it.  

Rev 21:25   Its gates never close at the end of day because there is no night.  

Rev 21:26   And all the nations will bring their glory and honor into the city.  

Rev 21:27   Nothing evil will be allowed to enter-no one who practices shameful idolatry and dishonesty-but only those whose names are written in the Lamb's Book of Life.

Jam 3:6 And the tongue is a flame of fire. It is full of wickedness that can ruin your whole life. It can turn the entire course of your life into a blazing flame of destruction, for it is set on fire by h**l itself.  

Jam 5:3 Your gold and silver have become worthless. The very wealth you were counting on will eat away your flesh in h**l.* This treasure you have accumulated will stand as evidence against you on the day of judgment.  

Mar 9:47   And if your eye causes you to sin, gouge it out. It is better to enter the Kingdom of God half blind than to have two eyes and be thrown into h**l,  

Mar 9:48   `where the worm never dies and the fire never goes out

Mar 9:45   If your foot causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better to enter heaven with only one foot than to be thrown into h**l with two feet.[fn6]  

Mar 9:43   If your hand causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better to enter heaven[fn4] with only one hand than to go into the unquenchable fires of h**l with two hands.[fn5]  

Answer 19

Answer 22

You want be reigning in h**l, you will be screaming in agony of pain from the intense heat.

In Heaven God will choose what our crown will be, therefore defining

as to what our duties in Heaven will be.

This is hard to describe, because it is almost impossible for us as humans to translate things of Holiness. To serve in Heaven is the answer to your question.

Answer 24

Obviously you were watching Little Nicky on the CW tonight. I think the end of the movie answered that for you.  

Answer 25

No one reigns in h**l.

Answer 26

Anybody else on this site can go reign in the eternal fire if they want to.  Me, I'm going to go hang out next to the pearly gates of endless paradise.  And I'll be the one who dumps the chamber pots, if they want me to.

Answer 27

its better to serve in heaven.

why? because the promise of exaltation is given to the sons of God who climb mt sion (obadiah)

those angels who become saviours become creators and sons of God and part of the godhead.

in the other situation it is better to reign in h**l, but if no one but the sons of perditon are cast out of Gods kingdom it must be a place without Law and nothing even close to heaven and paradise or Peace of mind.

before people (christians) condemn me with thumbs down

read Obadiah 21

rev 3:21 and 21:7

Answer 28

h**l, than eventually take over heaven, and that will be a piece of cake

Answer 29

Let's see: standing in the glory of the One who created me, or spending eternity in a place that was originally created for the devil and his angels? Boy, that's a tough one.

Answer 30

If one goes to h**l, there will be no reigning going on. There will be suffering beyond mankinds limited ability to imagine it.

It has been said that the suffering of regret from memories of rejecting God will play over and over again throughout eternity in ones head... which will be worse than any other pain suffered in h**l.

I haven't even mentioned the pain of the heat that shall burn like an oven, the lonliness from the separation of God's love that is taken for granted or disregarded, the choking smoke and smell making it nearly impossible to breathe combined with the ever growing thirst of a dry mouth.

I believe that serving in Heaven is the best deal.

Answer 31

Neither.
