Only if they're capitalised.
See Daniel 10:21 for an example of extraneous capitalisation. "but first I will tell you what is written in the Book of Truth." Actually, that's the English translation.
Anyway, in glancing around the scriptures, I found this reference: Ezra 2:59, 62. Out of all the exiles returning from Babylon in approximately 539-537BCE, some could not trace their ancestry to Israel (or the priesthood, if they were supposed to be in those families). Christians are promised a priesthood in heaven. Those who couldn't prove their lineage, who came from various Babylonian places, not Babylon itself, seem to be just included in along with the rest. The provision for those who couldn't prove their priestly origins was that they would not be allowed to eat the most sacred food until there was a priest officiating with the Urim and Thummim. Other than that, they all seemed to go to Jerusalem, give freewill offerings towards the rebuilding of the temple and then settled in their towns.
In fact, Matthew 5:45 says: "He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous."
As for Gehenna, I remember one verse where he was condemning those who address others with an unspeakable word of contempt (Raca). That kind of behaviour leads to murder in an interdependent society. I think he was angry when he said it.

And don't forget those folks who refuse to forward the chain e-mails. The Jesus I read about loved everyone. The one who is going to throw us all in the hot lake is his dad the Big G.

Jesus won't send anyone anywhere... but God does.
Jesus died on the cross for our sins. But he is the SON of God, and sits at the right hand of God.
God will be the one to pass judgement... And the God of Christians is the same as most other religions if you open your mind and actually learn more about them...

Jesus loves everyone. However we have the choice, as well as they do, to accept or deny Christ. If they deny Christ, then at the time of final Judgement, then yes, Jesus will send them to the eternal lake of fire. If they accept him as their savior, they will spend eternity in heaven. It is the choice they make this side of heaven now, that will determine their destiny later.

God loves everybody equally. God loves us ALL sooooo much that he gave us the free gift of salvation. unfortunately, it's our choice whether or not we want to accept it. If you're starving and i give you an apple, it doesn't do you any good unless you accept it and eat it.
God doesn't send people to hell, people send themselves to hell. The Bible gives a clear picture of this and is crystal clear that God loves everyone so much. If God were fair and just we would all go to hell. luckily he's also merciful and has given us the gift of salvation.

Jesus loves everyone...even those who do not believe in him. All they have to do is accept the Lord as their personal savior and they can avoid that "hot lake". (John 3:16 -- "God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever shall believeth in him shall not perish, but have everlasting life."

Jesus Loves EVERYONE.. and He offers Atonement for ALL of the sins of the world.. He loves everyone so much that He will not force anyone to accept His offer.

Supposedly, anyone who tries to tell anyone just who jesus loves and dislikes are themselves not worthy of love by jesus, so practically anyoen who speaks ill of another person in the way of talking about jesus or god could find themselves sent their "hell."

I've got good news for you: He loves all people, and wants people from all of these different backgrounds to deny themselves and follow Him. He's not picky; He'll take you from wherever you are and show you the way.

John 3:16..FOR GOD SO LOVEDTHE WORLD THAT HE GAVE HIS ON;Y BEGOTTEN SON THAT WHOSOEVER BELIEVES IN HIM SHOUL NOT PERISH BUT HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE...God loves the world - ALL - but people only perish because they choose not to believe him...see God created all to have this desire to worship God.. but thro sin , people make unto themselves different Gods to worship...people say we have a God but the difference is that their Gods are not God the CREATOR in Heaven...they think they could worship any way they like...but the difference is that God did spelled out clearly the ONLY way to worship : the BIBLE - GOD'S WAY...no other way... so disobedience to God would bring about one's perish...thou God loves the whole world, He cannot forbear the rebellious...the disobedient...they decide to disobey, therefore ther decide for their eternal death and ruin....feel free to contact for more discussion...God bless
