God's rules for getting into Heaven........ Unjust?

Question

Really,
If I go through life doing "good works" and have good morals I'm not aloud in because I haven't accepted Jesus into my life. Yet my nieghbor who is a serial killer but has "repented or accepted Jesus (what ever the religion states) is aloud in. This doesn't seem very just. Is this God's plan or some religions plan to use Jesus and or God in order to have people follow that religion?
I'd rather see everyone thrown into a pile much like you do hockey sticks when choosing teams and have God simply throw sticks blindly to one side or the other, at least I'd stand a chance. God cannot be that nieve...... I will follow the same path I'm on and if that sends me to an eternity of flame and screaming and gnashing of teeth so be it. At least I would have lived a honest life.

Answer 1

may I suggest if you live an honest life and forget the god thing you will be fine and if by shades of outer limmits u should find
a god after death you'll be judged and deemed ok but don't take this as an endorsement of the hereafter or the god.

Answer 2

Well, this is why some say only 144,000 people will enter Heaven! Millions die annually, including: people of other religions; infants; the severely mentally handicapped; and atheists. All of these beings will go to hell according to the described criteria. Yes, a molested child could possibly see their molester in heaven for *eternity* under this criteria.

Many Christians will say that their god doesn't have to be just because thier god created humans and can do whatever it wants. They have ways to make this fit the popular concept of a "loving" god as well.

My answer is that you can't find reason in something that's irrational. It doesn't have to make sense because it's based on the supernatural -- which, by definition, is not in reality and therefore cannot be logically deduced. You can believe it, but your belief will have to be based mainly on presumptions and appeals to consensus.

If you don't like the uncomfortable state this religion provides you, and you need/want religion, then you can surely find one that fits. Religions abound. If that doesn't work, make up your own!

Answer 3

Ok that's pathetic.
Jesus is not known all around the world.
I wonder what the rule was "before" Jesus was born.
Im 100% sure that some guy wrote or added that in the bible after Jesus died.
That doesn't sound like Jesus at all.
"Believe in God or go to hell"
That statement sounds like it came from a king or some monarchy to gain more or greater control over the people.

Answer 4

The rules are hardley unjust.
The Creator of the game always gets to make the rules.
(ask Parker Brothers or Bradley)
As you said, you will follow your own path knowing where it will lead.
You have made your own choice, dont blame jesus or god if you have decided not to follow the rules.
As far as an Honest Life, Only you know if that is true or not.
self examination for truth often leads to self deception.

Answer 5

You can't get to heaven by doing good works Jesus is the only way. It sounds like you don't want to do that.
What right do you have to question God? None is the answer .If you want to take your chances on what you think is just, go for it , but I can tell you , you're a loser from the word go.

Answer 6

Good works does not get you to heaven.. The only way to get to heaven is to confess your sins to Jesus and believe in HIM. Once this happens you become a new creature in Christ.. If a serial killer or anyone else confesses their sins then they shall be saved.. Going to hell does not sound like a place i would want to go to for an eternity..

Answer 7

So, do you know better than God? Is it just that we sin, but may be forgiven? Is it just that God chose to send his only Son to die in your place so that you could go to heaven? Is it just that you can live forever, even though you deserve death? Is it just that someone who never sinned paid the penalty for the sins of all mankind?

I think it's good to stick with God's justice. If he says I am justified by faith, then I accept that.

Answer 8

hi Bro, i replaced into only interpreting (Heckcat) answer when I were given a real heaviness in my heart and felt a grieving of the Spirit that "Christians" sometime, one way or the different take care of one yet another this way. i comprehend I have visited some "deacon-possessed" churches and some the position they offer the impact of being down their nostril at you. jogs my memory of a narrative i ought to opt for to percentage. have you ever been to this church? One Sunday morning an previous cowboy entered a church only previously amenities were to commence. even with the actual shown truth that the former guy and his outfits were spotlessly sparkling, he wore jeans, a denim blouse and boots that were worn and ragged. In his hand he carried a tired previous hat and an both worn, dogs-eared Bible. The church he visited replaced into in a very upscale and unique component to the city. It replaced into the biggest and maximum eye-catching church the former cowboy had ever considered. the persons of the congregation were all dressed with expensive outfits and nice earrings. because the cowboy took a seat, the others moved faraway from him. no human being greeted him, or spoke to him, or welcomed him. They were all appalled with techniques from his visual attraction and did not make any attempt to cover it. because the former cowboy replaced into leaving the church, the preacher approached him and requested the cowboy to do him a favour. "previously you come back decrease back in right here back, you want to have a verbal change with God and ask him what he thinks must be acceptable outfits for worship in church." The previous cowboy certain the preacher he somewhat ought to. the subsequent Sunday, he confirmed decrease back up for the amenities wearing a similar ragged jeans, blouse, boots, and hat. He carried the favored dogs-eared Bible. once back he replaced into thoroughly refrained from and left out. The preacher approached the cowboy and suggested, "i assumed I requested you to talk to God previously you got here decrease back to our church." "I did," replied the former cowboy. "And what replaced into His reply?" requested the preacher. "properly, sir, God informed me that he did not have a clue what I might want to positioned on. He suggested He'd by no skill been in this church." God bless one and all who study <)))><

Answer 9

I'm not going to take that chance,I can tell you my life changed when I asked Jesus into it

Answer 10

The key to getting into heaven is Jesus. If you don't accept Jesus, why would you even want to go with Him? You don't do "good works" to get into heaven, they should be a result of accepting the truth.
