Paul stoned people to death before he saw the Light. From what’s written in the Bible it does look as if Paul was destined to be resurrected from this world of death to Life.

The Blood of Jesus Christ covers the deepest and worse sins that man has committed. Even if Hitler had accepted Christ sincerely he would be saved. God forgives all sin, but you must still reap the consequences of your actions. The bible says that a man must reap what he sows. The Apostle Paul before he was converted persecuted the saints of God and wreak havoc on the church and even had some executed. But, the grace and mercy of God is so powerful and deep that God granted him mercy, while other saints still feared him and chose not to fellowship with him.

I would go with no on that. He's one f*cked up little man. Plus, Charles Manson would never ask for forgiveness because he's an egotistical a$$ who believes he never did anything wrong in the first place.

Yes.
It might seem odd according to our earthly perspective on things to let a murderer into Heaven, but God doesn't play games like that.
The Bible says that anyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.
No ifs, ands or buts. You can be a pedophile, murderer, rapist, or anything else, and God will always take you in if you sincerely repent from your sins and trust Jesus as your saviour.
So, if Charles Manson has truly accepted Christ as his saviour, then he will be in Heaven.

He's already in heaven like the rest of us; he just needs (like the rest of us) to get rid of the concept of an individual called 'Charles Manson' that has acted on other individuals in this world. Get rid of the self and the negatives of the self fall away.

God says we ALL have sinned & come short of the glory of God. (Romans 3:23) And the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life thru Jesus Christ our Lord.(Romans 6:23) So let me refraze that. We all deserve to go to hell. But God gave us ALL a way to have eternal life with Him. So if Charles Manson truely asked Jesus to be his Lord & Savior, & asked for forgiveness, then YES! Without a doubt, he would go to heaven. That goes for everybody! & I would be glad to see him in Heaven when I get there!

Anyone can ask God to forgive and save them with their mouth, but if he is sincere in his heart when he does it and desires to change, then yes. God knows your heart and all your thoughts. The Son of Sam was a serial killer who accepted Jesus, and was radically changed in prison. He even turned down his release a few years ago so he could continue ministering in prison. However, we also need to keep in mind that on earth, we reap what we sow, so we all shouldn't be killing everyone!
An often forgotten bit of trivia: Moses, the great leader of the Jewish people, killed an Egyptian. King David, a revered king in Judah, killed an innocent man to cover up his adultry. God forgave them both, and they went to heaven.

I believe that if he has not been saved in the past before he committed those crimes, and he makes confession, that yes, he will go to heaven. Everyone deserves a second chance. Think of how many chances God has given you.

In the words of Charlie Manson, "Every man is Jesus Christ" but to answer your question if he means it sincerely yes he does. That's my plan, live a life of sin then have the heartfelt confession at the end of it all. flawless.

According to Catholics he does (at least the Catholicism I know, don't start criticizing me people because I'm atheist and I know **** about religion). But yea, isn't it stupid? With certain religions you can kill thousands of innocent people and ask for forgiveness and that's it you go to heaven. Which means someone like Hitler would be at Heaven. Even more proof of how great religion is.

The way I understand it is if he were to confess and ask for forgiveness, and he was truely sorry, than yes he would be able to get into heaven. The key is that he has to be genuinely sorry.
