Should we leave hell out of the picture of Salvation? How can we, if there is no punishment then why did Jesus Christ shed His precious blood? Why was God's wrath poured out on Him? The bible describes Hell VERY CLEARLY as a physical place where the ungodly/unrighteous/unsaved will be sent, it is described as a place of torment where God will consume with fire the ungodly FOR FOREVER. Hell cannot be left out of the equation. But it SHOULDN'T be the reason why we turn to God.
THIS is why there is sooo much urgency in the gospel message as well! I don't want anyone to go tel Hell! But I cannot deny what God has so clearly stated in His word, and that is that hell truly exists and lasts for forever.
UPDATE:
It is also mentioned as the Lake of Fire in four occasions in both the ESV and the KJV
Rev 19:20
[And the beast was captured, and with it the false prophet who in its presence had done the signs by which he deceived those who had received the mark of the beast and those who worshiped its image. These two were thrown alive into the lake of fire that burns with sulfur. ]
Rev 20:10
[and the devil who had deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur where the beast and the false prophet were, and they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.]
Rev 20:14
[Then Death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death, the lake of fire.]
Rev 20:15
[And if anyone's name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire.]
UPDATE:
Yet another reference to a place of torment:
Rev 14:9 "...If anyone worships the beast and its image and receives a mark on his forehead or on his hand,
Rev 14:10 he also will drink the wine of God's wrath, poured full strength into the cup of his anger, and he will be tormented with fire and sulfur in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb.
Rev 14:11 And the smoke of their torment goes up forever and ever, and they have no rest, day or night, these worshipers of the beast and its image, and whoever receives the mark of its name."
