Is Hell eternal?

Since "hell" is the grave, it is meaning that a person will be there eternally.  Hades, means a place under the ground, where the dead are.  

Gehenna is the valley of Hennom in Jerusalem where they threw their trash to be burned.

The carnival of hell

Paganism aside, when we die, we return to dust, that's what the Creator said to Adam about death.

But since that time, we have had a lot of men far wiser than God, people out of Babylon, the priests who offered human sacrifices in secret, had other things to teach the world... I'm talking about paganism again, let me start again,

Paganism aside, when a human being dies, they pass out, their mind and thoughts cease to function, the body begins to decay and they eventually turn to dust - minerals. The minerals are used by plants or scattered around in the earth, or water etc.

There is nothing left of them. Well, that's observable evidence anyhow.

So evidence says, man turns to dust, the scriptures declare that God says man turns to dust,

but pagans and false religions....controlled by the devil, the devil's ideas they teach - "if you disobey God, ye shall surely not die..."

Ghosts, spirits, spooks, etherical entities, scifi worms, smokey skies and pits of fire, tormenting demons and eternal life in death? Asylum material. Entertainment for loonies. 

But that's not all is it? they say that hell has stages or levels, different experiences. They even say heaven has stages and levels of attainment. Quite a carnival don't you think?

A new religious rage is that hell is just a place where you are separated from God - an endless carnival of lusts. So much better than burning isn't it? All made up by the devil of course, and we know he is a liar.
