Will people in hell remember their lives on earth?

Answered in 1 source

Yes, those in hell will retain memories of their earthly lives and the choices they made, particularly their rejection of God's grace.

The Scriptures indicate that those in hell will possess a complete and vivid remembrance of their earthly lives. In Luke 16:25, Abraham tells the rich man to remember that during his life, he received good things while Lazarus received evil, underscoring that they will reflect on their past decisions and actions. The realization of wasted opportunities to repent and heed the Gospel will only amplify their anguish. Moreover, this memory serves as a warning to the living, urging them to respond to God's call while they have the chance, as depicted in Matthew 11:20-24, where unrepentant cities are warned of the severe consequences of rejecting the truth of the Gospel.
