They say we must love and accept jesus to go to heaven, but what about if you don't believe in jesus, i mean Jesus should know that we are told many things today and he knows that we can't just take one belief seriously, if jesus does exist, surely he would know that i just don't believe in him, he can't just expect me to have some VERY STRONG faith in him if i dont believe in him, god created us to have the power to believe what we want, and god, and jesus are both much more intelligent than you or me, so if i can understand how one may not believe in jesus to begin with, surely they can too. They can't go soo hard to punish someone who though that the "jesus" belief was made up, they are fair and they know what's fair, so they know that some people just don't believe in jesus. They know that there are sooo many myths and beliefs going around the world today that it's hard for people to just START believing in jesus all of a sudden.

There are Muslims that stake the same claim about christians following a false religion and they have a book to prove it. There are people who never hear of any of this and are born athiest then programmed to "believe" in whatever religion is fed to them. Some of you personify god as being a god of love, that being so "he" certainly had a major personality change from the old testament where he had his humans kill innocents, men, women, animals, suckling or not or turned people into a pillar of salt for a minor offense like looking at Sodom blowing up. How is believing in Jesus any different from any other myth out there? They all offer the same proof. As I look around I am at peace knowing the world was created by Dave the Wonder Wilderbeast. I see proof of Dave in every sunset and my prayers are always answered by him. Sometimes the answer is "no" but I know he is there watching over me with his leprecauns because I feel their presence in my heart. Smile Dave (MHNBP) loves you. I feel sorrow for all of you out there who don't know Dave (MHNBP)and the punishment for disbelievers, an eternity watching "Facts of Life" in spanish on a black and white TV. See how silly this can be?

You're forgetting that if you're not a Christian, you won't care about Hell anyway. If you don't belong to Him, and you're not His, don't think that God will go after those that He has not chosen. Too many people make that mistake, they think it's their choice rather than God's, and they are left with a dilemma of a loving God whose love is really only an offer. You're asking whether God would forgive you for not believing in Him, and you fail to realize that there's a bigger picture here. If you don't care, you stand condemned already, not at a later point. John 3:18 as a "proof text" if I haven't wasted my time in answering this.

GOD is quite specific about salvation through the blood of HIS SON JESUS being the only way to heaven and the consequence of not believing. GOD loves us so much HE gave HIS SON to be our proxy on the cross as payment for sins of all. The gift of salvation, forgiveness of sin and redemption is free all we have to do is accept CHRIST. The consequence of this choice is eternal life in the presence of our GOD. Choosing not to accept CHRIST carries the consequence of eternal separation from GOD (hell without hope). The choice is most certainly up to everyone to make. I always encourage them to choose wisely it is a decision that will last for eternity. I made my choice years ago and look forward to my eternity. Hope you do to.

I am sure you have heard how Jesus came to die for the sins of the world and without being saved you cannot enter into heaven. Well now you know and without Jesus all those who are not saved go to hell.

If you are a good person with strong moral and family values I doubt very much that you are going to hell because you don't' believe in Jesus. It is the word you are following not the man

god gave us freewill, to believe in him or not. and to follow the prophets that he sent or not to. and if we dont, then yeah, we'll be judged accordingly. i believe in jesus, but i believe in muhamad (pbuh) as the final prophet who completed what jesus was sent to teach... yes, i am a muslim. i do believe that the christian faith is a bit faulty, with gaps and so on... afterall it was changed by man... so how can you truly believe that? hence why imnot christian...

Yes....
Jesus said that He is the way, the truth & the life....no one comes to the Father but by Me
If you reject Jesus you are flat out rejecting the Father......
