Does Hell Exist?

[Data]

The question for debate is does hell exist? If so, what does the Bible teach hell is?

[JehovahsWitness]

[And death and hell were cast into the lake] Death himself is now abolished

So then the make of fire is symbolic of abolishment NOT torture or suffering?

The make of fire or the lake of fire is literal as it will destroy death and hell(grave). Meaning there is no more
death, no more grave, no more sin as the wicked, Satan and demons are destroyed.
Revelation 21:4 says;
And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.(KJV)
