Pastor Adam Ericksen answers the question “If hell isn’t real, what did Jesus mean?” Adam explains Jesus is talking about the present time when he says “The kingdom of heaven is among you.” If this is true, then hell is among us, too.
Jesus connects the hell of fire to our relationships with others. For Jesus, heaven and hell are relational.
