People say Jesus was the great theologian of Hell. He likened Hell to a fire, about twenty different times, and He is known to preach about Hell. Here's what He said, too:

No Exit Door
Once someone is in Hell, they're they're forever. It's too late to beg for mercy and they're there no matter what they do.

You can only pass from death to life in THIS life

You have one life, and this is your only chance to make it to eternal happiness in Heaven.

Matthew 13:41-42, 49-50 "The Son of Man will send his angels, and they will gather out of his kingdom all causes of sin and all law-breakers, and throw them into the fiery furnace. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.  So it will be at the end of the age. The angels will come out and separate the evil from the righteous and throw them into the fiery furnace. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth."
Mark 9:43, 48-49 "And if your hand causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life crippled than with two hands to go to hell, to the unquenchable fire...where their worm does not die and the fire is not quenched.' For everyone will be salted with fire."
