Would you fight for your friends?

Question

This question is strictly for religious Christian folk. It doesn't really apply to anyone else.

Consider this hypothetical situation: You die from a freak accident of some sort. After you die, you find out that you were right; heaven does exist and you've been welcomed in. After asking some questions up there, you learn that it's true that one must accept Jesus to be allowed into heaven. You have a lot of friends from various faiths and others who are atheists. All of them are good people, but apparently they're all going to hell. Would you try to do anything about it? Would you ask God why he required people to believe in him? Would you stand up for your friends if you didn't believe it was right for them to be thus condemned? And if not, would you be able to live eternally knowing your friends are in hell?

Answer 1

Nicely put...But I think the structure of the question is not 100%, for the simple reason that it ignores a couple of principals.

For starters, a true friend would encourage their friends to share in the joy of salvation that is only through Christ, and support them in their times of weekness, and together enter heaven. You do not need to wait till you are up there to vouch for them.

Secondly, Christianity in its essence is no more than a true deap and profound PERSONAL relationship between you and God. The ultimate goal in life is to reach God, and to help as many people get there. Once you and your friends are there together, basking in the eternal joy of Christ, you know that YOU have made the right choice. You friends would know that they too have made the right choice.
The other friends that have 'chosen' to walk away from Christ, they will experiene their own fate. Up there, you no longer have to worry about it, because you have achieved your choice, and they would have achieved theirs.

Oh one last thing, do not ever think that any of us can love someone more than God will love them. Rest assured that God will give EVERY living soul EVERY chance to repent and turn back to Him. He is the ONLY savior, He ALONE knows what's in the heart of all men, and He will know how to call His children.

I hope this helps...God bless you and guide you in your holy zealous love for your friends.

Answer 2

I would not fight for my friends for God's will is my will. Though I may mourn horribly for their loss I will always know that it is so much worse for God because He had to reject them after He created them. God is just, so why should I fight Him?

By the way only God is good so there is no such thing as a good person (Matthew 19:17 "Why do you ask me about what is good?" Jesus replied. "There is only One who is good. If you want to enter life, obey the commandments.")

Answer 4

WHEN YOU GET TO HEAVEN ,YOU NO LONGER KNOW THE PAINS OF EARTH.
YOU WILL NOT STAND IN THE PRESENTS OF THE ALMIGHTY GOD,AND ASK QUESTIONS.
HE HAS GIVEN EVERY ONE A CHANCE TO COME TO JESUS.WHO AM I TO QUESTION HIM ANYWAY?
GOD SAID HE WANTED ALL MEN TO GO TO HEAVEN,HELL WAS CREATED FOR SATAN.
