I dont believe that God sends people to hell. Hell is here on earth. HE is not such a cruel God. We are awarded all the chances here on earth to make peace with our lives and with one another.
God cannot be blamed all the time for our deeds and prejudices.
HE does not see color as we do.Heaven isn't about black or white. Heaven is about good, compassion,Love,trust,faithfulness and Holiness. Trust me...even MJ will enter Heaven...tho' God wont probably recognize him at first, but, he too will get there.
Dont be too harsh on those who dont believe,,they also Gods people. In Gods eyes, there's no religion, just creation (His) Imagine if we were all Christians or Jews or Muslims or KKK. How boring would that be. God would have his work cut out for him. Take care friend. Keep an open mind. Peace.

Wayne** hit it on the head from the Christian viewpoint I think. Jews obviously have a different approach to their own destination. They believe that they have been given 613 commandments (as opposed to 7 to non-Jews). Thus, Jews have a harder burden in trying to do what they have to do under their own religion than non-Jewish people do under the Jewish religion. I don't know if that answers your question. The different religions clearly have different approaches to salvation or whatever the concept is called under a particular religion. Christianity has as basic tenet that acceptance of Jesus as a personal savior is a necessity to salvation. Judaism holds that one's actions in abiding by given commandments (the Law) is more important. Not trying to be value-laden, just answer your question on the level.

Who goes to Hell and who doesn't has nothing to do with the Jews. Get it? It has to do with who is forgiven.
Everyone deserves to go to Hell as they are born, because they are born sinners.
So everyone is born headed to Hell.
The only ones who escape this certain fate (destiny) are those who meet and embrace and obey Jesus and His teachings while they are alive on this earth. That's the only chance they have.
If they won't do that, they will get what they deserve (Hell). And those who WILL do that (obey Jesus) get what they don't deserve (Heaven).
It has nothing to do with any person's skin color or being Jewish or not. Get over that nonsense.
by the way, the English spelling of his name is Jesus. We use that instead of Joshua because Joshua is an Old Testament leader who took over as leader of the Israelites after Moses died.

I'm not sure I understand what you mean. I'm a Christian and I don't hate Jewish people. If you believe that crap that Christians hate Jews because they killed Christ - that's ridiculous. Christ's death was foretold thousands of years in advance, and it was through Christ's death that I have my salvation. Why would I hate anyone for that? And by the way - I know plenty of Jewish people who are Christians as well, so I'm not sure where your racist argument comes in. I wouldn't deny Heaven to anyone.

What in the world are you talking about? God condemns people to hell for one simple reason. If you refuse God's offer for eternal life up to the point of death, then you are condemned to hell. It doesn't matter the race, religion, ethnicity, sex, whatever. It all comes down to our reluctance to give up the worldly pleasures and so you burn and suffer for all eternity. Simple as that. No specific person or group is to blame, cuz we are all the reason for why God had to give up his only son to die for us, so we, who are totally unworthy of it, can be with God and Jesus forever and ever in Heaven.

First of all My Jewish brother.
I am a Jew and I believe in Yeshua (JESUS), partly Jewish anyways.
I didn't except Him as my Savior to appease any Christians.
I love my people and I love Israel and I have visited Israel numerous times in my young life and I plan to move there permanently someday.
I have been friends with Christians who have never treated me illy.
These Christians are still my friends.
You should be careful not to make generalizations, such generalizations are ridiculous.
Don't you agree?

I don't think a loving God would create people so that he could send most of them to hell. I don't think you have to be "saved" by believing in the "right" religion in order to avoid hell. I believe you are a beloved child of God.

Jesus knew why He was called and what He was called for. bless Him.
I love Him.
It was no one's "fault". It was meant to be. read about it yourself. you won't believe anyone else.
It has nothing to do with peoples skin color. or race. or even religion.
He came for everyone. you to.
it is a beautiful thing.
peace
ps Joshua was the prophet who led the Hebrew people into the promised land after Moses' death.

All the worlds of God are only one heavenly world. God doesn't send anybody to that non-existent world (hell).
If you choose to get to know God and to obey His biddings, your soul will enjoy the spiritual nearness to Him, that is your heaven. If you choose to deny Him or act against His Will, your soul will suffer the fire of remoteness to Him, that is your hell. So, heaven or hell is your spiritual conditions based on your own choice.
