"God is the searcher of souls".
So as long as -I- believe I am serving God, no matter what I do, God will only find my sincere belief in Him and thus grant me heaven?

Seems most felt that faith alone wasn't enough, but then provided a solution which basically works out to faith alone.
Semantics can be tricky, but not indecipherable ;-)

Who knows? but you raise an interesting point.
Those who think they know god's will and believe, I mean really believe, they are doing God's work are more dangerous then religion itself.
If you think God wants you to kill a race of people, then you are a murderous hateful person, and you use god as a shroud to embolden your views.
If you couldn't say you were doing God's will then EVERYONE would see that you a hateful, evil person. Because religion is so silly, SOME people will agree with you, and you are allowed to preach hate, because it is in God's name.
That's why we should flush all the holy books away.

I don't know where you get that from. The Bible is the book we should live by as Christians. Our belief is not in whatever we want to do, it is in God. God would never have anyone do anything that is against his word.
As Christians we are to live Gods plan for our lives and know his word and be held accountable for disobeying his word. There will be a day of judgment for all when we will all be held accountable. I suggest you ask for God's wisdom as you read his word. Maybe get in a good bible study too.

What have you been smoking?
What you suggest is doing something that is against the Word of God (the Bible). If you truly believe in God and have been saved then you will study His word and want to live under His law and thus you wouldn't do that.

Well, no. You have to sincerely believe that Jesus' death on the cross saved humanity.
Next, you have to then offer your life back to God so that he may conform it to Christ's image.
You will learn, at this point, that genocide is not part of God's will for you. You are not serving God by committing murder. One of God's commandments is that you shall not murder.
DUH.

You will go to heaven if you believe and worship One God. Genocide is not the part of God's plan. Its humans who manipuliated God's message for their own agendas.

Jesus' death only replace the sacraficial law, that is why he is called the Lamb. All other laws that the lord set forth are still in play, according to the Holy Bible. Does'nt matter if you don't believe. God does not care about religion. He cares about keeping HIS law and man following it. How can the people who call them selves Jews be Gods chosen when the Bible says the Israel is Gods chosen people, the tribe of Judah is but one tribe and there are 11 tribes of Israel. People......we are in big trouble.

Our belief in something doesn't make it true. You can be sincere and still be wrong. Truth is an objective realism and is not dependent on you believing it to make it true.
To answer more directly.... no.

No, you would have to repent of your arrogance and ignorance before you would even begin to glimpse what it means to serve the Most High God.

I think you will have to choose. Genocide is a human choice not God' plan.

No. God demands much more than just belief. Many people belive in God and choose to reject Him. Anyone who kills in His name must forget that God does not want us to kill each other--it is blasphemy!
