If they accept Jesus and die before me they will. But I will get there one day!
And on the othere side of that, we are already eternal, it is a matter of where we will be. I chose sides with Jesus, and I am already a part of his kingdom.

That is a good point Carl. If there were enough time left, you might make a preacher someday. I would point out that yours are pretty strong words for people who turn their tricks and do their crimes in cyber space.
What you say sounds kinda familiar, about tax collectors and so forth? Oh well, to make money preaching you need to ask questions that make people feel good.
I qualify as "other sinners" at best. Many prostitutes and tax collectors are already there. So, about the only sinners that won't be there are the highly moral and religious money grubbers and those who criticize, condemn and complain.
Won't that be a relief?

If they believe in Christ and His finished work., repent and turn away from their sins, yes...if that's the case, then they're no long "prostitues" or "tax-collectors", or "sinners" . They are saints of God.

All of those who are covered by The Blood of Christ and have come to God in The Way He proscribes will enter heaven... There will be all kinds on the way up there.... but all will be the same once there.

Sin is in the eye of he beholder. You need to look at motive and contextual issues before you decide that a specific occupation deserves to go heaven or not.

It depends only on the order in which sinners die.

I think that everyone gets there at pretty much the same time.

Only if they repent and put their trust in Christ.
