Are non-Christians all sent to Hell?

Question

I am the Way and the Truth and the Life.
Judge not and you shall not be judged.
I will show my Glory to whom I will.
Blessed are those who believe, but have not seen.

Isn't this our justification doctrine? What does it say?
Why would a prophet say:
Blessed are those who believe, but have not seen.

and Isn't condemnation the work of Satan?

I didn't mean to lose anyone, this is for the apolgetics of R&S.

I suppose I am more concerned for the ones that don't answer.

Jhn 3:18?

Ah, but whosoever believes the truth belongs to God.

Candee:
I realize many muslims hold this belief, but:

Religious warfare is dead.

Answer 1

Your question is a popular question among the Muslims; they (Muslims) believe that they are only followers to god will go to paradise other all will be bestowed hell on the day of judgment.
I am a Muslim by birth and no more a believer not only no believes in Islam but I am turning Atheist. May all of the people who are believer are living in the fool's paradise around the globe. All the followers believe that they are true other all are following wrong path and finally will get nothing even hell.

Answer 2

Please read the whole Bible. Hosea 13:4 says "I am the only God there is no other savior but me." I believe God will judge my heart. He knows it better than anyone. I can't hide truth from him. Why on earth would a just and loving God punnish anyone to eternal suffering and torment just for not believing in Jesus. There are so many inconsistancies in the Bible...because it was written by man...yes, inspired by God...but not written in his hand. The history of the Bible is quite interesting. Some books were voted out and some accepted by the priests. Hummmm...that tells me that we have to read the entire thing....and study it and pray. Hopefully God will show us what is truth and what is not. Much is lost in translation. Study it. Pray.

I am a little lost by your convoluted statements after your question they seem to be statement of Dogma and not related to your question. Please don't be offended by what I have to say..You've asked for my humble opinion and I'm only too pleased to express it, you obviously have yours and I respect that....

Your question is then "Are non-Christians all sent to hell?"....

My answer is no....How can YOUR God send ME to hell...it doesn't hold Truth and search for Truth is part of my Dharma or reason for being Buddhist...I am Buddhist and my Dharma involves me as an individual attaining enlightenment through practise of the Seven Noble Virtues following these I should come to the conclusion that all experience in life is transitory and non permanent, so I for one won't be going to a hell...I'll be reborn if that is my karma or I'll enter the first of seven Heavens where my Dharma will be revealed further if I evolve sufficiently...

As for other non-Christians I guess that remains to be seen as I am not sufficiently versed in their Dogma to comment..

I have studied Christian Dogma and can only say that hell holds true for Christians and Truth isn't really a Christian Tenet as there is no Way to approach or recognise it in Christian teaching, rather belief in and Faith in Dogma is the prefered methodology...

I am not condemning Christians for their Faith...they have it and that is important from my perspective and obviously from their perspective also...rather I am expressing my opinion on your question only....

Answer 4

It's hard to believe that this whole complex world could be summed up into one simple ideal. Doesn't make any sense if you look at the big picture. The only way it can be rationalized is if you've been conditioned all your life not to think outside the box or are simply looking for someone to tell you how to live your life.

I'd prefer to be responsible for my own life, my own successes and my own shortcomings. It's much more enlightening than living your life vicariously to someone else's idea of what's right and what's not right.

Food for thought.

Answer 5

No, non-christians are not all sent to hell. The entire human race will be judged by an all-wise God according to the works we did on earth and how well we lived the portions of truth we were given.

Answer 6

No one can truly give an answer to this because we can't predict how God's mind works. If you weren't Christian but you did good in the eyes of God, then He may save you. Hell is basically for those that choose to reject God, because that's what Hell is: eternal separation from God. Hope this helps!

Answer 7

Jesus said:Jhn 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

Unbelief= condemnation

Answer 8

The Christian Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses preaches a message of "good news", and leaves all judging for Jehovah and Jesus to perform "on the last day".

(Acts 10:36,42) Declare to them the good news of peace through Jesus Christ: this One is Lord of all others. ...this is the One decreed by God to be judge of the living and the dead

(John 11:23-25) Jesus said to her: “Your brother will rise.” 24 Martha said to him: “I know he will rise in the resurrection on the last day.” 25 Jesus said to her: “I am the resurrection and the life.

(John 12:48-49) The word that I [Jesus] have spoken is what will judge [a person] in the last day; 49 because I have not spoken out of my own impulse, but the Father himself who sent me has given me a commandment

(John 8:16) if I do judge, my judgment is truthful, because I am not alone, but the Father who sent me is with me

(Matthew 12:36) They will render an account concerning it on Judgment Day

(John 5:22,27-30) [The Father] has committed all the judging to the Son... 27 And he has given him authority to do judging, because Son of man he is. 28 Do not marvel at this, because the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice 29 and come out... I judge; and the judgment that I render is righteous, because I seek, not my own will, but the will of him that sent me.

(Acts 17:30-31) God has overlooked the times of such ignorance, yet now he is telling mankind that they should all everywhere repent. 31 Because he has set a day in which he purposes to judge the inhabited earth in righteousness by a man [Jesus] whom he has appointed


In addition, Jehovah's Witnesses are quite famous for teaching that "hell" does not exist as Christendom has taught it; God has *NOT* arranged for any such place of fiery torment for sinners in some netherworld. The original Hebrew and Greek words most commonly translated as "hell" actually refer to the common grave of mankind; the Scriptures point forward to a time after Armageddon when humans will live forever and death and "hell" are themselves destroyed.

(Ecclesiastes 9:5) For the living are conscious that they will die; but as for the dead, they are conscious of nothing at all

(Ecclesiastes 9:10) there is no work nor devising nor knowledge nor wisdom in Sheol ["hell"]

(Revelation 20:14) And death and Hades ["hell"] were hurled into the lake of fire

someone said that christians r the only ones who believe in hell, well thats wrong, muslims believe in hell, and they believe that christians are the ones going to hell fire, and any one that is not a muslim is going to hell fire, also muslims that have comitted sins will go to hell fire to pay their dues and then go to heaven, how about you read about other religions too?
i hope ppl are open minded and dont start swearing and cursing just coz i mentioned Islam =)

Answer 10

If one does not believe in God, then yes, sadly they will go to hell. What is meant by "blessed are those who believe but have not seen," is that you cannot see God, so you have to believe by faith. Those that believe even though they cannot see it are blessed.
