they be saved from hell?

Jesus Christ is accepted as the bonafide representative of God, within the Gaudiya Vaishnava religion, which is the personalist school of thought within the Vedic religion.
Sometimes God, Sri Krishna, comes himself to attract the materially conditioned souls back to Godhead and sometimes he sends his representative.
However the message is the same, Jesus says love my father and Krishna says love me, so the conclusion is the same, love of God.
Anyone who considers their own individual path to be exclusive, has been influenced by the corporate style presentation of a particular dogma, that has more of an economic objective, rather then a focus on real spirituality.
Therefore anyone who follows purely within their chosen tradition and comes to the spiritual platform of love for God, will never be placed into a hellish condition of life, regardless of any psychological manipulation of fear by established organisations.

Hindus, Taoists and Buddhists all believe Divinity is present in everything. Even an apparently Wicked one has a place in the Grand Cosmic plan... If Judas did not do what he did, Christ wouldnt have been sacrificed as the lamb. Judas played his part by allowing himself to be despised for all eternity, so that we can all learn lessons of loyalty... so that the plan of God can be put into action...
The Eastern religions see that, and thus see that in Christ are qualities of an Enlightened One... Some Hindus even tell me, that they consider Jesus to be an Avatar of Lord Vishnu.
Personally I believe, if you we can be Christ-like- live life in Love, Care and Sharing with others as Christ did, why wouldn't the Omniscient one save that person?
Imagine: A SAVED "holy man" who seems "Filled with the Holy Spirit" but is hurtful to the hearts of others in words, unsharing in action or a Pacifist who educates the world in Jesus Christ's ways of Peace and Harmony but is not a christian, but who puts himself/herself out there to share the Love of the Divine with all who are sick, homeless and in despair ( not just Lip Service: God saves, god Loves you)....
Who would God send to Heaven at the end of it all? Would you like to be Praising the Lord in midst of nasty and mean people who curse you with brimstone and fire for all eternity? ( Habits die hard, if they were that fiery on earth, that won't change in a poof )
Divinity is found in all things... True Divinity is Unconditional Love... to say I will only Love and Care for you if..XXX.( place your condition here ) is already a first sign of imperfect love.

Nope - Have to believe that Jesus Christ is who He says He is - The Son of God, died, buried, resurrected. Jesus' true Diety has to be believed in our heart and confessed with our mouths.

You can respect a car, but until you get in and drive away, you ain't going anywhere.
And it doesn't 'piss me off' that anyone should disbelieve in Hell. However, they are in for a rude awakening someday.

depends if they believe that he died for their sins so that they could be able to be with God in everlasting life. That is what it is about .

I believe that, too. There is no hell...so no one will be going. Does that piss you off?
