Dear mikerow,
The murderer, thief, and rapist are all condemned to hell just as every other sinner, whether a liar, gossiper, disobedient to parents, or proud person. The fact of the matter is that ALL of us are sinners--we have broken God's law. The penalty for breaking God's law is eternal damnation (hell). The only hope that any person has is that someone else may "stand in" for him. That is, find a "substitute" that can take the sentence (eternal damnation) for him/her. The only One that can do that is God Himself-the Lord Jesus Christ.

From my understanding of things they will be for a time but if they are truly repentant they will ascend to heaven at the time of the apocolypse. I believe in God and his word that is not in dispute however, I think that anyone who murders and rapes should spend eternity in hell. Thieves should be punished but eternal damnation I don't believe they should as long as they did not cause Physical harm to another person. However if God sees reason to let a rapist in heaven that was repentant before he left this world then who am I to say and the same goes for murderers. Hope this helps, however please remember this is only my opinion of the understanding I get from reading the Bible.

Only if they choose to remain a murderer, thief or rapist until they die.
God can and desires to prevent this from happening. He is not willing that any should perish. This is why He sent His Son.
Jesus says, He that cometh unto me, I will in no wise cast out.

Yes they will. " For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whore mongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie." Revelation 22:15.
Understand that sorcerers refers to those who produce and use illegal narcotics. As well as the usual meaning, those who use and delve into astrology, fortune telling, Ouija boards, tarot cards, necromancy, crystal balls, false prophecies and the like.
Unless they confess these sins, and repent they will all go into the lake of fire after the great White Throne judgment. As well as those who do not confess the name of Jesus Chirst.

Nope, all they have to do is accept Jesus apparently and they cakewalk into heaven with the rest of the rubes. Makes the place sound real; attractive. Hmmm, I wonder if Christian neighborhoods would like repentant child molesters, rapists, and murders living next door? Could be a good way of dealing with them!

I think they should be sentenced to an "eye for an eye" type punishment. A lake of fire just seems to radical. If you murder someone, you should be murdered in the same manner you murdered your victim(s). And the same goes for theives and rapists.

Well if thats the case then the Zionist Jews that go into Palestinian territories and boobie trap toys for young Palestinian children to blow them up. Also mowing down entire families at a time and torturing Palestinian children who simply throw stones at tanks, and countless other terrorist acts and torture done by crazy Zionists then let me tell you that lake of fire is gonna burn like crazy!!

Most certainly,
UNLESS they repent and ask Jesus Christ to be their Lord and Savior.
The problem is, we are all murderers, thieves, and rapists, and any other number of sin-perpetrators.
Jesus Christ is mankind's only escape.

It depends if they repent. If they repent and are truthfully sorry then they will recieve the grace of God. But if they don't repent or if they repent and are not truly sorry then yes they burn forever in the lake of fire.

No, they will be reincarnated and forced to face the consequences of their actions in this life, perhaps by payback karma of the person who was killed (or some other person) killing them so that eventually they will actually FEEL the hurt, pain, fear and anguish that they caused in the past life where they killed someone. They will have to keep repeating that lesson in subsequent lifetimes until they learn the lesson that we are all part of God and no one can kill or hurt another without distantly hurting or killing a part of themselves.To keep relearning the same lesson over and over is what Hell is. No one likes to be stuck in school relearning the same lesson over and over.
