no no no no, i meant like not sacrificing but like for example:
like they would shoot a stranger but you said"no youll have to shoot me and let em go" then they would agree and then shoot you.

No dying in the place of another is not a go-to-heaven free card. While it may be an act of love or selflessness, it would ultimately not destroy the sin in our lives. A good deed does not erase a bad deed. We need atonement through Christ, that is the only way to squash our sin which keeps us from heaven. While it may be a righteous act, in most cases, to lay down your life for another (provided your intentions are not self-righteous), it is not sufficient for salvation.

Sounds like some kind of old wives tale. Never heard it. However, I have heard that once you save a life, you're responsible for it.
Also, in Christianity, sinners are forgiven if they ask to be.

This is not true. The ONLY way to Heaven is by believing that Jesus is your personal Lord and Savior and that He died for your sins. This is the only way you will get to Heaven.

That sounds like suicide bomber talk.
I will blow my self up and kill the infidels so they wont kill you. Thus I am saving your lives, So I automatically go to heaven as a martyr,
and (drool drool) get rewarded with 72 virgins.
You sound like a Muslim in disguise trying to trip up these poor Christian folk.

i do not believe that to be true. there is only one way to get to heaven and that is through jesus christ. that doesn't make sense. so an axe murderer would go to heaven if he sacrificed his life for someone else??? you need to accept jesus as your lord and savior and start to live for him

i heard this before. i don't know if its true or not. if u saved someone's life and u died that shows respect and love for human life. we all live a sinful life because we are not perfect.

Then you might want to read in the Bible that Jesus was the sacrificial lamb once for all. Christians do not have to sacrifice their life - thank God for that.

Great merciful Saturn. Speak English, or at least something closely approximating it. Your words are confusing and hard to decipher.
