Description of hell
Only four of the six visionaries saw hell. Our Lady gave Mirjana and Ivanka the choice whether or not to see hell and they chose against it. Ivan and Marija both saw a vision of hell and all that Ivan will state is that he prefers not to discuss it. Vicka and Jakov were physically taken to hell by Our Lady. The following, through several interviews of the visionaries, is a detailed description of hell.
Vicka: “We saw many people in hell. Many are there already, and many more will go there when they die…The Blessed Mother says that those people who are in hell are there because they chose to go there. They wanted to go to hell…We all know that there are persons on this earth who simply don’t admit that God exists, even though He helps them, gives them life and sun and rain and food. He always tries to nudge them onto the path of holiness. They just say they don’t believe, and they deny Him. They deny Him, even when it is time to die. And they continue to deny Him, after they are dead. It is their choice. It is their will that they go to hell. They choose hell.
Question: “Describe hell as you remember it.
Vicka: “In the center of this place is a great fire, like an ocean of raging flames. We could see people before they went into the fire, and then we could see them coming out of the fire. Before they go into the fire, they look like normal people. The more they are against God’s will, the deeper they enter into the fire, and the deeper they go, the more they rage against Him. When they come out of the fire, they don’t have human shape anymore; they are more like grotesque animals, but unlike anything on earth. It’s as if they were never human beings before…They were horrible. Ugly. Angry. And each was different; no two looked alike…When they came out, they were raging and smashing everything around and hissing and gnashing and screeching.
Question: “Has seeing hell changed how you pray?
Vicka: “”Oh, yes! Now I pray for the conversion of sinners! I know what awaits them if they refuse to convert.”1
Vicka: “People turn away from God by choices they make. In this way they choose to enter the fire of hell where they burn away all connection to God. That’s why they can never get back to God. It takes God’s mercy to get back to Him. In hell, they no longer have access to God’s mercy…They choose to destroy their beauty and goodness. They choose to be ugly and horrible. People do this all the time. Each choice that is against God, God’s Commandments, God’s Will, singes God’s image in us…They become one with hell even while they have their body. At death they go on as they were when they had a body.”2
The following is what Marija has shared about hell:
Question: “Marija, have you ever seen hell?
Marija: “Yes, it’s a large space with a big sea of fire in the middle. There are many people there. I particularly noticed a beautiful young girl. But when she came near the fire, she was no longer beautiful. She came out of the fire like an animal; she was no longer human. The Blessed Mother told me that God gives us all choices. Everyone responds to these choices. Everyone can choose if he wants to go to hell or not. Anyone who goes to hell chooses hell.
Question: “Marija, how and why does a soul choose hell for himself for all eternity?
Marija: “In the moment of death, God gives us the light to see ourselves as we really are. God gives freedom of choice to everybody during his life on earth. The one who lives in sin on earth can see what he has done and recognize himself as he really is. When he sees himself and his life, the only possible place for him is hell. He chooses hell, because that is what he is. That is where he fits. It is his own wish. God does not make the choice. God condemns no one. We condemn ourselves. Every individual has free choice. God gave us freedom.
Question: “Marija, what about people who grow up spiritually deceived, people who have been told that God does not exist, that there is no God?
Marija: “People, as they grow up, can think. Everyone knows and can recognize what is good and what is bad by the time they grow up. God gives us freedom of choice. We can choose good or bad. Everybody chooses here in this life whether he goes to Heaven or hell.
Question: “How do we choose Heaven or hell or Purgatory for ourselves?
Marija: “At the moment of death, God gives everyone the grace to see his whole life, to see what he has done, to recognize the results of his choices on earth. And each person, when he sees himself in the divine light of reality, chooses for himself where he belongs. Every individual chooses for himself what he personally deserves for all eternity.3
Jakov:
Question: “Jakov, did you see hell?
Jakov: “Yes.
Question: “Can you tell us about it?
Jakov: “Very seldom do I talk about hell…I choose
not to think about hell. The self-chosen suffering
there is beyond your ability to comprehend.
not to think about hell. The self-chosen suffering
there is beyond your ability to comprehend.
Question: “Does it cause you pain?
Jakov: “More than you can understand…Because no one needs to go to hell. It is the ultimate waste.
Question: “What can people do to keep from going to hell?
Jakov: “Believe in God, no matter what happens in a lifetime.”4

Hell and How to Avoid Hell by Thomas A. Nelson
(Amazon Books)
This book is an absolute
must for everyone, regardless
if you are Christian or not!
You will not be able to put
the book down as it
captivates you with an
absolutely overwhelming
feeling of fear and terror.
It really causes you to
re-evaluate your own
conscience and whether
or not you are on the path
ùto heaven. This book is
especially needed for those
who do not know Jesus Christ
and for those that do know
Him but think they are "once
saved always saved." The
Bible clearly states that we
must accept Christ into our
lives in order to be saved
from the fires of Hell, but
we must also "work out
our salvation with nervous
trembling." This book
discusses these points in
great detail as well as
many other important biblical
facts about Heaven, Hell, and
salvation. It's a must buy!

pains were so unbearable
that though I had suffered

There are special Tortures
destined for particular souls.
These are the torments of the
senses. Each soul undergoes
terrible and indescribable
sufferings related to the
manner in which it has sinned.
I would have diedThere are caverns and pits of torture where one form of agony differs from another. I would have died at the very sight of these tortures if the omnipotence of God had not supported me...-St.Faustina Kowalska's description of Hell.

"Then I was pushed into
one of those fiery cavities
and pressed, as it were,
between burning planks,
and sharp nails and red-hot
irons seemed to be piercing
my flesh."
Here Josefa repeated the
multiple tortures from
which no single member
of the body is excluded:
"I felt as if they were
endeavoring to pull
out my tongue, but
could not. This torture
reduced me to such agony
that my very eyes
seemed to be starting out
of their sockets. I think this
was because of the fire
which burns, burns... not a
finger-nail escapes terrifying
torments, and all the time
one cannot move even a
finger to gain some relief,
nor change posture, for the
body seems flat
tened out and yet doubled
in two.-Sr.Joseph Menendez's description of Hell.
_____________________________________________
There was a certain rich
man, who was clothed
in purple and fine
linen; and feasted
sumptuously every day.
And there was a
certain beggar, named
Lazarus, who lay at his
gate, full of sores,
Desiring to be filled
with the crumbs that
fell from the rich man' s
table, and no one did give
him; moreover the dogs
came, and licked his sores.
And it came to pass, that
the beggar died, and
was carried by the angels
into Abraham' s bosom.
And the rich man also
died: and he was buried
in hell. And lifting up
his eyes when he was
in torments, he saw
Abraham afar off, and
Lazarus in his bosom:
And he cried, and said:
Father Abraham, have
mercy on me, and send
Lazarus, that he may
dip the tip of his
finger in water, to cool
my tongue: for I am
tormented in this flame.
And Abraham said to him:
Son, remember that thou
didst receive good things
in thy lifetime, and
likewise Lazareth evil
things, but now he is
comforted; and thou art
tormented.
And besides all
this, between us
and you, there
is fixed a great
chaos: so that
they who would pass
from hence to you, cannot,
nor from thence come
hither. And he said: Then,
father, I beseech thee,
that thou wouldst send
him to my father' s house,
for I have five brethren,
That he may testify unto
them, lest they also come
into this place of
torments. And Abraham
said to him: They
have Moses and the
prophets; let them hear
them. But he said: No,
father Abraham: but if
one went to them from the
dead, they will do penance.
And he said to him: If
they hear not Moses and
the prophets, neither
will they believe, if
one rise again from
the dead. -Luke :19-31,
The Rich Man (Dives) and
Lazarus.
Second Circle (Lust)
In the second circle of Hell are those overcome by lust.
Dante condemns these "carnal malefactors"[ for letting
their appetites sway their reason. They are the first
ones to be truly punished in Hell. These souls are blown
back and forth by the terrible winds of a violent storm,
without rest. This symbolizes the power of lust to blow one about needlessly and aimlessly.
In this circle, Dante sees Semiramis, Dido, Cleopatra,
Helen of Troy, Achilles, Paris, Tristan, and many others
who were overcome by sexual love during their life.
Dante is told byFrancesca da Rimini how she and her
husband's brother Paolo Malatesta committed adultery,
but then died a violent death, in the name of Love, at
the hands of her husband, Giovanni (Gianciotto).
Francesca reports that their act of adultery
was triggered by reading the adulterous story
of Lancelot and Guinevere (an episode sculpted
by Auguste Rodin in The Kiss). Nevertheless,
she predicts that her husband will be punished
for his fratricidein Caïna, within the ninth circle (Canto V).

FIFTH EXERCISE
IT IS A MEDITATION ON HELL
It contains in it, after the Preparatory Prayer and two Preludes, five Points and one Colloquy:
Prayer. Let the Preparatory Prayer be the usual one.
First Prelude. The first Prelude is the composition, which is here to see with the sight of the imagination the length, breadth and depth of Hell.
Second Prelude. The second, to ask for what I want: it will be here to ask for interior sense of the pain which the damned suffer, in order that, if, through my faults, I should forget the love of the Eternal Lord, at least the fear of the pains may help me not to come into sin.
First Point. The first Point will be to see with the sight of the imagination the great fires, and the souls as in bodies of fire.
Second Point. The second, to hear with the ears wailings, howlings, cries, blasphemies against Christ our Lord and against all His Saints.
Third Point. The third, to smell with the smell smoke, sulphur, dregs and putrid things.
Fourth Point. The fourth, to taste with the taste bitter things, like tears, sadness and the worm of conscience.
Fifth Point. The fifth, to touch with the touch; that is to say, how the fires touch and burn the souls.
Colloquy. Making a Colloquy to Christ our Lord, I will bring to memory the souls that are in Hell, some because they did not believe the Coming, others because, believing, they did not act according to His Commandments; making three divisions...
