Glossary of Word meanings
Historic and still accurate Terms
Here are the meanings of words which you will hear Christians saying when talking about Christianity and Biblical things, few things will be in "Christianese" language.
Hell & Heaven
When Christians speak about eternal Hell they mean, broadly, “place of conscious torment & wrath after death.” We realize that hell is technically different from the lake of fire, but we simply use Hell to mean both (because Hell is thrown into the lake of fire on Judgement Day).
Abraham's Boosam, Paradise and Heaven, and the (eternal) New Heaven and New Earth are also generally referenced by Christians as Heaven.
They are different places for different purposes and either lead to eternal life or eternal damnation.
There is the Human realm and the place of the dead.
