   Odd that you say satan wants to scare the hell out of people in order to make   
   them run to Jesus, as God.   
      
   If one were to follow that premise out, then the JW’s are a tool of the   
   evil one, setting them up in a trap.   
      
   Teaching that God is not a God of judgment, therefore no hell for humans.   
   Like a spiders web, they get caught up in the evil ones grip, only to find   
   out that when they pass on from this life that Satan goes.....   
      
   BOO!! GOTCHA!! Followed by a sinister mocking laugh.   
      
   You do realize that in this life that God established a death penalty for   
   certain crimes, don’t you. And if He did that for this life, then it would   
   stand to reason that he also judges after death from this life, hence the   
   well known Second Death. In which there will be not one thing that could be   
   considered pleasant, nice, loving, etc. Only the eternal torment of what   
   could have been, as well as the retribution for all your errors.   
      
   PS: there is a verse that speaks to scaring the hell out of people lest they   
   be lost. Albeit not in those exact terms.
