What if… (letter from hell)

Letter from hell (from the rich man)

Letter from hell

Written to: The Public,

or,

To Whom It May Concern.

Dear Ones on Earth:

Since I shall never be able to see any of you people back in the world, I am writing you this letter. I would like to say that everything is still the same as when I first came here, during the time of Moses. Yes, all is still the same except I hear new voices as they weep and wail which is a constant thing here in hell.

I hope you can read what I am writing. It is very hard to keep my thoughts separated because of the loud screaming and blasphemous cursing of my fellow subjects. All of us in hell have no excuse for being here. We were warned and warned not to come here. We were told to trust in Jesus’ shed blood for salvation, but we didn’t, and here we are. You just can’t imagine how bad hell is. You’ve never been here, and I hope you never come. One thing that makes this place so extremely confusing is the millions of lost souls cast here every day. But don’t be surprised, the Bible says, “Wide is the gate, and broad is the way that leadeth to destruction and many there be which go in there at.” The mouth of hell has stretched herself in order to hold all of the people that are cast into her. You may think it strange that I know so much about what the Bible says, especially since I didn’t care about the Bible when I was alive on the earth. But down here things are different. I just can’t help thinking about the Bible and the many wonderful things it says. These things just come automatically to my mind.

The letter from hell (Louise’s dream)

The Letter

One day a woman named Louise fell asleep in her bed and dreamed a very fitful dream. She dreamed that someone in Hell wrote a letter to her, and it was to be delivered to her by a messenger. The messenger passed between the lakes of burning fire and brimstone that occupies Hell, and found his way to the door that would lead him to the outside world. Louise dreamed that the messenger walked to her house, came inside, and gently but firmly woke Louise up. He gave her the message, saying only that a friend had wrote it to her from Hell. Louise, in her dream, with trembling hands took the letter and read:
