My girlfriends parents are not religious, but she is. She thinks they're going to hell.?

Question

Ok so my girlfriend is a very devote Christian, however her parents have no religious affiliation or beliefs. She thinks they're going to go to hell when they die.

My problem is that her parents are great people. They came to America, and created a good life for her and her family. They also have sponsored many others in her family to legally immigrate here. They have given up much, and continue to be selfless.

I have a hard time believing that God would send good people that have done much good to hell.

Answer 1

I know it's hard. I have unsaved loved ones too and all we can do
is keep praying that God will send people into their lives that can minister the TRUTH to them in the way that they would be recep-tive to, especially if they don't care to listen to you or if they live too
far for you - whoever - to sit down and talk to them or in another situation that makes it difficult or impossible to reach them, but GOD knows where they are on this earth and He knows where their hearts are and how to reach them if they are willing to open
themselves up to His love and mercy.
Not only are unsaved loved ones and friends in danger of dying
right now without Jesus, but also, if they miss the rapture, they will be in for the most terrible 7 yrs that this world has ever known
and if they receive the MARK OF THE BEAST on their hand or their forehead, there will NEVER be another opportunity for them to receive Jesus as their Savior.
This is something I think about ALLL the time in regard to those in
my life whom I love and care for, but they are just not receptive to
hearing "religious crap" as my sister-in-law would refer to it.
All I can do just keep praying and believing that somehow God will
find a way to get through to each and every one of them while they are still on this earth, but God will never take away their free
will regardless of how much one prays for their salvation.
I know that I have to accept that fact no matter how hard it is.

Yes, by man's standards, there are ALOT of GOOD PEOPLE in
this world, but it's not man's standards that will count when each
and every person stands before God and gives account.

God said, WHEN I SEE THE BLOOD, I WILL PASS OVER YOU!!

In the courtroom of HEAVEN, it is only the BLOOD of Jesus that
will be recognized and accepted.
Without the BLOOD of Jesus - Y'shua - even mother theresea would split hell wide open!!!

IT IS THE BLOOD THAT MAKES ATONEMENT FOR THE SOUL
-- Lev. 17:11

WITHOUT THE SHEDDING OF BLOOD, THERE IS NO REMISSION OF SIN -- Hebrews 9:22.

John 8:24 ~~ Acts 4:12 - John 3:16 - Matt. 7:13:14 - John 14:6.

WHOEVER WAS FOUND NOT WRITTEN IN THE BOOK OF LIFE WAS CAST INTO THE LAKE OF FIRE -- Revelation.

Consider a defense attorney in their closing argument -- they plead for aquittal on the basis that their client is a "good person", even when they know and admit that all the evidence points to their guilt and there is just no getting around that. The prosecution
has proven their case. The defendant is totally guilty, good or not.
All they can do is throw themselves on the mercy of the court.

Yes, we are all guilty, but because Jesus died for us and paid for
each and every one of our sins with His blood, we can go free --
but it will only be on the BASIS of the sacrifice of Jesus in our
place. God is not going to go by what we think of ourselves or what others think about us. He's not going to grade us on a curve.
It will ONLY be by the BLOOD of the LAMB, but nobody is being
excluded!!
EVERYBODY can come to God for eternal salvation, but it will ONLY be by and through JESUS, our Passover Lamb.

There won't be separate lines for people who think they're just too
"good" to go to God through Jesus or those who think that the way
that God provided our salvation is "INTOLERANT" and all of the other p.c. garbage that's going on down here on earth....

NOT GOING TO HAPPEN!!!

People can scream and yell about the gospel being INTOLERANT
until they're blue in the face, but it's not going to change anything.

You (whoever) either come the way that God has provided or you
don't get in.

Someone on death row who is being offered a full and complete pardon is in NO position to make demands about ANYTHING!!!

What do you think would happen if they did.....

Right -- their execution would proceed as scheduled....and it would totally be their own fault. They had EVERY CHANCE to escape their fate and they turned it down!!!
You can't blame the warden or judge or whoever. The condemned convict made their choice and decided that they did
not want the mercy that was being offered to them and they knew
that without it, they would surely perish.
Any prostestations about being a "good" person are in vain.
They are still condemned and they will still pay for what they did
and it doesn't matter what family or friends say or think or do to try and prevent the execution from going forth.
It wasn't their choice, but they have to stand by and watch their
loved one die when they COULD have gone free.

Answer 2

So what happened to all the people before the christian religion. And wasn't Jesus jewish. Does that mean he went to hell? Oh wait I forgot that jews and christians belive in the same god just different profits. But isn't Allah just the Arbic word for God. So since all the Muslims also believe in a God, doesn't that mean they get to go to heaven as well? What abou the Greeks and Noris cultures that believed in many Gods, do they go to many heavens. If I truely believ that I'm God, and I mean the same way that this person believes in their God, don't I get to go to heaven?

Answer 3

No offence to any christians here, but that is part of the christian religion. believing that is the only true religion and if you do not follow it then you are going to hell... just the way their religion is..

Answer 4

According to mainstream Christian belief, everyone who is not Christian goes to Hell.

Not all religions believe that way.

Answer 5

She is correct. Ephesians 2:8 For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith--and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God-- 9 not by works, so that no one can boast.

Good people and good works dont get you in heaven. But Christ can.

Answer 6

Could it be God's decision not your girlfriend's decision as to their eternal destiny?

Answer 7

for the million and tenth time, God doesn't send anyone to Hell, we send ourselves there with the choices that we make.

Answer 8

That is what religion does to people. Pretty sad eh?

Answer 9

If You do not acknowledge God He will not acknowledge You.
