It is more correct to say there is no hell in any of God's Universes, than to suggest there is
a hell. This is because, if you take the word hell to mean a place of inflicted suffering, of eternal
duration, there is no such place. But, if you take it to understand that some spirits find themselves in places
and states of mind that are unpleasant, then there are such places and conditions. But this condition is not
inflicted because of any false beliefs, or following any "wrong" religion. It is solely the application
of the Laws of God, the effect that results from causes. The causes, are broadly sin, or being out of harmony
with God's Laws.
The hells are both a place and an experience. It seems
that each soul may in some way create it's own hell. Certainly we
are told that the Law of Compensation causes souls to undergo this
purification, following which they progress until eventually they
may reach the highest heavens. Hell, then, is not for eternity.
However some souls spend a very long time in torment, and it is
not uncommon for them to believe that this will last for eternity.
These messages tell a different story about resurrection, forgiveness
and judgment. It is not correct to view hell as punishment,
but rather as the only place where that soul is in harmony. Over time,
the soul may choose other actions and beliefs, and change it's way of thinking, and ultimately lead
itself to being in harmony where there is greater happiness, and
thus progress out of its torment.
I have just completed a summary of "Getting
out of Hell" which includes material from this site and
others. This is in the form of a pdf and can be downloaded.

How long do you spend in hell?
In the following messages, it is clear that Julius Caesar has been
in hell since his death in March 44 B.C - about 2060 years so far.
But, once he learns how to get out, he gets out in no time at all
- about 19 months. I have included here confirmatory messages from
Padgett's wife. This was very common, and it was the primary means
by which Padgett knew he was not being
deceived. If you choose to read all the messages in chronological
order, you will discover this to be true, even though not all
the messages that were received have been published, and this particularly
includes the inconsequential supporting messages.
There are many similar stories about spirits in darkness, and their
later returning to thank Padgett for helping them. For another such
dark spirit, see the story of Edwin
Forrest, a former business partner of Padgett's.
Judgment and Forgiveness
The Resurrection
Earthbound and Dark Spirits
While our messages received by James Padgett do not cover this subject to any great extent, it is the case
that mortals can be seriously affected by both earthbound spirits and dark spirits. Earthbound spirits are those
that have not yet started their spiritual journey, and have for one or other reason remained in the earth plane
after death. The reasons are varied, but in all cases lack of spiritual development is a major factor. Some
are simply confused and scared, almost all do not realise they are dead. Some are attached to material possessions,
and try to stay around those. These earthbound spirits may inhabit a house, and perhaps be referred to as "ghosts"
or poltergeists when they are troublesome. More insidious are those that "attach" to a mortal. This
always affects the mortal, and these effects can be both physical and mental.
Sadly all too many folk after death are so dark that they awaken in spiritual darkness, in the earth plane.
They notice the spiritual light emanating from mortals, and go towards it. They may then find themselves "caught"
in the magnetic aura of that mortal. They could get out, if they were aware that simply by thought, they can
travel, but they are unaware of this, and can remain caught in that aura for a great many years. The condition
of this class of spirits is extensively covered in "30 years among the Dead."
A very good description of these issues is also covered by Dr Irene Hickman in
"Remote Depossession." While many churches have their processes for removal
of "demons", I think that the procedure developed by Irene Hickman is so good that I have devoted
a page to it. If a few more churches adopted her procedure, then I think they would be much more effective.
Apart from that, Irene makes the excellent point that she actually helps these spirits, whereas most churches
"cast out" the spirits, leaving them free to attach again, something that is absolutely certain to
occur. It's like washing your linen in drinking water.
Dark spirits are a somewhat different matter. Because the earth
plane is within their allowed range, dark spirits can and do spend
a lot of time trying to influence mortals negatively. These are
all ex-mortals that have not yet thrown off their tendency to sin
and error. Dr Irene Hickman has
returned to comment on her work, and at this time it is not
clear how accurate it was.
One of the finest explanations of what occurs in the lowest planes of the First Sphere - the Twilight Zone
and below that, the darkest planes, is described in the book "30 Years Among the Dead". This
is available as a download.
