Scenario:
Mr A commited all this sins ,
Rapist, Robber, Drug dealer, Whore Monger, Cheater and Murderer.
When Mr A, reaches 60, he realise what he did was wrong.
He believed in Jesus and he died at Age 61.
Mr B does Good Deeds all his Life.
A doctor that safes Lifes, Donate his savings to the old folks home,
Does Volunteer Work at his free time in the orphanage.
He does not belive in jesus. Perhaps a Free Thinker or a Buddhist, or others...
he died at Age 61.
Now both Mr A and B is been judged!
Who will go to Heaven and who will go the the Lake of Fire?
Many will Say "Mr A" but not "MR B".
How do you guys react to this.
I have meet many good souls, but they choose not to beleive in jesus!
will god give them a chance?
Do you guys ever have someone you loved and been doing good deeds all their life and have passed away before accepting Christ.

it is sad!
The anwser i receive is.. Good people dont really end up in heaven...
"Take motherly love for instance"
I have seen mothers willing to sacrifice even for their child even when their son refuse to acknowledge that woman is his mother.
I call this TRUE LOVE.
Does God have true Love For US?
Some of us refuse to acknowledge him and he refuses to open his Door.
Is this TRUE LOVE?
Some were blinded into making the wrong choice.
Some believed that other religion is their True God.
Just like a Little Kid looking for his Mummy.
But he does not know which Door is the right Door to knock.
All religion cliam they are the True God.
Does this mean that God is so unforgiving to have to condemm this little Kid for Knocking at the Wrong Door?

Few if any who lived in terrible sin for 60 years will repent. By that point God has given them over to the evil desires of their hearts...Romans 1
No one can earn eternal life no matter how much good they do. Paul discusses this in Romans 4. He even uses Abraham and Moses as examples. Paul also talks about his achievements and how they did not help him.
Jesus said no one will enter the kingdom of heaven unless he is born again...John 3

Neither Mr. A or Mr. B will go to heaven. Mr. B is obvious why, but Mr. A will not go to heaven either because its more than just believing. We are called to repent from our sins, that is to ask for forgiveness and then not do them again, and to put or faith and trust in Christ alone. The Chance is right here, right now, cuz after you die, thats it, its over.

What does Mr. B do other than his "good deeds"? Has he ever lied, or stolen, or sinned in any way? Of course he did. When we sin, we are guilty. Jesus died to take our punishment because we can't get to heaven by doing "good deeds." That is why Jesus said the only way to the Father is through Him.

I don't usually answer a question with a question, but what do you mean "belief in Jesus"? Perhaps I'm wrong, but it seems to me that the knowledge (awareness of) of G-d fills the world Because of the Son. I see it as an irrefutable fact. G-d was known exclusively to the Nation of Israel up until the birth and death of Christ.

Ephesians 2:8,9
"For by grace are ye saved, through faith, and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God, not of works lest any man should boast."
Romans 6:23
" The wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord."
Eventhough we work really hard doing good deeds for others unless we trust in Jesus for everything and make Him Lord of our lives, repent and turn from our sins and be saved, we will not be able to make it to heaven.

Mr. A because Mr. B worshiped the creation and not the creator. Loving God with your whole heart and soul is number one. In him we live, we breath, we have our being. We are his to do what he would like with. If you made a new ceramic coffee mug and then one day decided you would use that mug for chili and not coffee, does that mug have a right to complain? No

Dear friend coming to know God is understanding we are not Mr. B. That savation was provided for all of us A's by
God who is the God of us all and we are all sinners and have all fallen short if that wasn't true then God would not have come to be tortured and die in our place to pay the penalty all who understand we are not good and need this salvation.

Why would God restrict entry into heaven only to those who permit themselves to go against logic sanity? That Christian belief is a flawed, man-made bunch of baloney, taken from a book whose authors are all questionable and ....not God!

Yes God will give them a chance.The chance is to except Christ into their lives. God gives everyone that chance. We can turn towards him or walk away from him. When its time for you to be judged, its time for you to be judged. It doesn't matter how good of a person you are. What matters is who you live for. God LOVES us! Why is it hard for us to love him back?
