Eternal punishment awaits those who reject God's salvation offer
The True Jesus Church affirms the reality of hell as a place of eternal punishment for those who reject God's offer of salvation. Hell is understood as eternal conscious separation from God and as a place of torment prepared for the devil and his angels, but which will also be the destiny of those who refuse to repent and respond to God's conditions for salvation.
Since the True Jesus Church teaches that the way of salvation is clearly outlined and available to all through its five sacraments, those who remain unfaithful to these requirements or who deliberately reject them will face divine judgment in hell. The church takes seriously the biblical warnings about judgment and final accountability before God.
Hell is not presented as God's preference for anyone but as the necessary consequence of rebellion against God. The church maintains that God's justice requires that sin be punished, and hell represents the final state of those who have refused God's mercy throughout their earthly lives.
