what is the spirit, well the way I look at it is that's us basically, we can think, maintain our personalities. When God said he made man in his image I don't believe we look like mini-Gods but have similiar attributes to him spiritually.
regarding hell, the Lake of fire has not been created yet. There are so many descriptions that it's hard to fathom, none of them sounding pleasant. I hear fire, I hear darkness how can the two co-exist? Jesus compared hell to a dump in Jerusalem called Gehenna I believe. My view is that it's total seperation from God if God is good, what are you left with? Bad, darkness, knowing you made bad choices and have eternity to mull it over. Luckily, God accepts us if we accept his son.
These are just my thoughts I am not a Bible scholar and am just trying to explain things to how I percieve them. Lots of these things we don't know first hand.
