When yall say Christian condemn people to hell....no Christian condemns anyone to hell, that's God's decision...Christians just go by what they see. If I see that people don't want to accept Jesus, and the Bible tells me that if you don't accept Jesus you won't inherit the Kingdom of God, how is that condemning you?
we're going by the facts..we just observe and line it up with what the Bible tells us..you've basically already condemned yourself

Christianity doesn't have levels...There's not the somewhat spiritual Christians, and the not so spiritual Christians, or the Christians who are hypocrites, or the ones that don't believe the whole Bible....
There's only one type of Christian, those who believe God, believe that He's coming again, hate sin, love to give, and who love God.

Yo Texas, God isn't like America, whereas, everyone should b able to do what they want, when they want, and so forth....He's not fair, he's just...All He wants to do is save us from our sins so that we can have eternal life...He's not trying to control us or make us do what He wants; we have free will yes, but He knows and we (Christians) know the truth, and it's hard for a lot of pple to believe, because it doesn't seem logical. But you have to have an open mind and an open heart...it won't hurt to try Him

Oh Honey...Please stop answering your own questions by slamming others. There is only one judge, and I'm happy to say, I ain't him. And neither are you.

The Bible is simply a nice collection of stories with morals written by men to gain control of people. I believe in God, but will never believe that the Bible is 100% true and to be followed literally. I could care less if a "Christian" thinks I'm going to hell...they simply have no clue as to what the afterlife holds anymore than I do.

Then why do Christians say that others who also say they are Christians are going to hell? For example, people with Assemblies of God (I don't know what you call them...evangelical Christians?) say that Catholocism is a cult and Catholics will go to Hell.
I think when people say that Christians condemn everyone to Hell, they mean that some Christians tend to think that people who don't believe EXACTLY as they believe will go to hell, in spite of their beliefs about God's forgiveness, Jesus dying to save mankind's sins ("I'm not perfect, just forgiven!"), repentance, and statements in the Bible about a number of pagan or unbelieving generations descending from a Christian (e.g. the son of a "believer") being "acceptable to God".

People today,, we are talking to a deaf nation, this one country has the freedom to serve God, America used to be the greatest nation, UNDER GOD,, and we are throwing that out the window, so many countries people die for the belief in Christ.. America better wake up God grace was on this nation but the way its going to much freedom, these atheists should know what its like to suffer in these countries and the only hope they have is in the one true God that carries them thru, No one ever said that serving God would be easy, Christians prepare, the time is coming you will lose your lives for your beliefs, these very people on this site, hear the anger in the words well one day they will be our accusers ,,, don't sway God is right there with you..And don't worry he will carry out he promises in his word...

Geezey Pete. Where does all of this ignorance come from. I sat down with God the other day and she said the funniest thing. She told me that her love is greater than any love we've ever known, so why would she create a place for us to suffer for all eternity? Us being away from her would hurt her too. She also mentioned that she found it really interesting how we keep trying to force human emotions onto an other worldly entity.

HazelEyes! You are so right! Oh, but God doesn't condemn people to Hell, either. (John 3:16) People condemn themselves to Hell by their rejection of Jesus' Atoning work on the Cross.

I agree with chocka.. People today do not want to listen to God's word and they will have to pay the price...
It is not presumptuous to think that the God that created the heavens and the earth will not put up with other man made Gods. It is presumptuous of you to get angry if I just take your car for a ride without asking permission and since you don't even know me, why would you call the police and accuse me of car theft.. Why do you presume that only you can drive your car?? A little closed minded don't you think... This place belongs to God and he does what he wants... presumptuous, I don't think so. he owns us when you get down to the title..

I agree
Keep in mind, though, that sometimes we forget that God says, that it is the love of God that calls men. Even Paul tells wives that are choose to stay with unsaved men must show Gods love, not beat the bible over their head.
I have seen it time and again, and been guilty of it, myself. Wanting men to accept Jesus, being scared to death they wont, so I (meaning well) beat them over the head, and they run. I have found that quietly and faithfully serving God is what causes interest from non-believers

There are many good Hindus. I don't think they are going to Hell. It is very presumptuous to believe that your God is the only true God, and Christ is the Savior of Christians only. Sounds kind of racist to me. I am a good man, I love my children, life, and my fellow man. If I don't believe in your God, why should I go to your Hell. Not a fair God if you ask me.It is truly sad.

Why do you think Cain killed Able? It may have been arrogance on Ables part. That's not a crime punishable by death, but it does get people angry.
Are you not forbidden to throw your pearls of wisdom before swine? At best, they will ignore them, and at worse, the hog will get angry, and turn on you violently.
There was a man named John, who went before Jesus, to make the way straight. John did the accusations, not Jesus. Stick to the straight path, or you may end up like John, the least in heaven.

Did you perhaps mean, the person is judged by the scripture?
Yes? That is true but most person have special glasses that help them live in the la la land of applying all the good to themselves, and all the bad to everyone else.
I suppose that is why the man said "FOOL! Get the rafter out of your own eye first, then you will be able to see how to help your brother.
