Over forty years as a missionary travelling through four continents has brought me in contact with many divergent doctrines and often misrepresentations of about the existence, nature, and purpose for Hell. Hell is popularly represented as a place of eternal suffering for anyone sent there. In this journey to hell, unlike in Dante's trip to the Inferno, I was directed by what the Bible actually says about Hell, and had a very lovely and knowledgeable guide to escort me.  I discovered Hell to be vastly different from what I had been led to expect, and came to realize that lot of my preconceived notions about the Devil and the eternal fate of souls sent there are not as fixed as imagined. To my surprise, demons were not confined to a burning lake of fire, in fact no one was, at least not yet.
