Joseph Z reveals the intriguing narrative surrounding hell as a form of punishment, while also addressing the concern of whether the devil can ever be redeemed.

He clarifies that hell was not created by God for humanity, but rather for the devil and the fallen angels who rebelled against Him. When the devil rebelled, he caused a violation of God that was so profound that no one could pay the penalty for the suffering God endured. This led to the establishment of hell as a punishment for the crime committed. Even with all its severity, hell is still insufficient to compensate for the devil's transgressions.

Joseph then explains why the devil is considered irredeemable. He references the Book of Ezekiel 28:15-17, noting that iniquity was found within the devil; he had no tempter and was not deceived by anyone, but was instead born with iniquity. Thus, anyone who chooses the author of sin over God Almighty partakes in the punishment destined for that author.

Furthermore, Joseph elaborates that everyone who rejects Jesus is destined for hell because Jesus was sent to redeem humanity from the condemnation brought about by sin. This sin originated with Adam, who fell victim to the devil's deceit, thus tainting all his descendants with the devil's guilt. However, Jesus came so that anyone who believes in Him could be freed from original sin, becoming worthy of being called sons and daughters of God. Joseph emphasizes God's profound love for us, demonstrated by His decision to send His Son to Earth for our sake.
