If Adolf Hitler found God, and asked for forgivness, would he have a better chance of making it into heaven than some average Joe who never harmed anybody, but never believed in Christ?

Adolf Hitler's dead. You don't get any more chances after that. However, if he asked for forgiveness and submitted his life to Christ while he was living, the arm of God is absolutey long enough to reach out and save him. It's not about how wonderful or awful we've been, it realizing that we can't do it at all without Christ. The standard for heaven is absolute perfection. I've never met anyone who's been able to claim that besides Jesus. So how many sins is too many? One. After that you can only depend on the blood of Jesus.

Matthew 12:31
“On this account I say to YOU, Every sort of sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the spirit will not be forgiven.
Yes he would be forgiven, as long as he asked for forgiveness and meant it in his heart.
Besides, apart form 144,000 (Revelation14:3) we don't go to heaven, but have hope of living on a paradise earth for ever (Revelation 14:6, Matthew 5:5, Psalms 37:29, 2 Timothy 2:18). First though, we are resurrected on the earth, brought up to a state of perfection over a period of a 1000 years, and then tested again before we actually attain everlasting life (Revelation 20:4-10, 21:8).
John 17:3
This means everlasting life, their taking in knowledge of you, the only true God, and of the one whom you sent forth, Jesus Christ.

If Adolf Hitler truly asked for forgiveness, and only God knew Hitler's heart, then, yes, God would forgive him.
The Apostle Paul, before he became a disciple for Christ was in charge of rounding up Christians for the slaughter. God forgave him, and used him tremendously.

If Hitler believed in Jesus Christ and His death and resurrection, at the end of his life, Hitler would be forgiven. The one that doesn't believe in Jesus, would go to hell.
I'm sorry the lack of a self-righteous curve grade bothers you.

Yes, he would be forgiven. That might not seem fair, but if you give it some thought it actually should give you amazing assurance that you and I and everyone else has the same privilege to accept the grace of God. None of us are beyond redemption.

Well now,That would be a moot point.Would'nt It ?Seein as how
Adolph is dead.The dead cant ask for anything...(Eccl.9:5)"The
living are conscious that they will die;but as for the dead,they are
conscious of nothing at all."(Ps.146:4)"His spirit goes out,he goes
back to his ground;in that day his thoughts do perish." We have no
way of knowing whom Jehovah has in his memory as far as the
resurrection.However we can gain accurate knowledge of his will
and put it into pratice in our lives.More on this and other information? please go to;http://www.watchtower.org

Yes. If he accepts Jesus into his heart. He will forgive anyone. The only sin that will send you to hell is denying christ.
