hey christians who are not living a christian life that you ought to be...
you read this verse before? do you know that WE christians who do not TRY to live a holy life with God's power can end up in hell too?
Rev 3:14-19 God says to the people "You are neither cold nor hot. I wish that you were either cold or hot. So because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I am about to spit you out of My mouth. For you say 'I am rich, I have prospered, and I need nothing.' You don’t realize that you are wretched, pitiable, poor, blind, and naked."

C J ,
you have the mentality of "once saved, always saved. once forgiven always forgiven."
your thinking is so dangerous that it might be one that is causing so many christians to take God's grace for granted, living a totally unholy life, bringing a bad testimony to Christ.
and the revelations verse was ADDRESSED to a GROUP OF CHRISTIANS. so it refers to christians - passionate ones, half-baked ones, and backslided ones.

Another misinterpretation....
There are those who believe, hot. There are those who do not believe...........cold. There are those who sit on the fence, who don't deny Christ, but haven't accepted Him either. Lukewarm.
Don't you dare tell Christians that they are going to hell. To do so is contrary to the words of Christ, and to the Word of God.
"There is no condemnation to those in Christ Jesus." If you are saved, you are saved. You cannot take away what Christ did on the cross. The only way you lose salvation is to deny Christ.
All Christians sin. We are not perfect, we are redeemed. We do not make provisions to sin, but yet we inadvertantly do in life. The Word says :
"If we confess our sins, God is faithful to forgive us, and cleanse us from all unrighteousness."
I've seen your posts before. You may not quite be an atheist playing pranks, but you're sure no Christian. Maybe you need to read scripture and learn to comprehend it, before you make such absurd comments to people on here.

The best we can do as Christians is: Follow the examples that Jesus gave!!... [Hell],or {she`ol}it basically means the common grave.,. And do not become fearful of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul:but rather be in fear of him that can destroy both soul and body in Ge-hen'na[Math]10/18

Both life and death are necessary. Both light and dark are necessary. As the day is to the night, the night is to the day. The darkness (death), which is necessary, should not be our fear, nor should we be ruled by it. The light (life), which is necessary, should not be our salvation, nor should we be ruled by it. We should walk neither in the light or the darkness, but rather in the shadows that are created from them. The shadow (mystery) IS the Almighty. A shadow is a region of darkness where light is blocked. It occupies ALL of the space behind an opaque (obscure & unintelligible) object with light in front of it. The cross section of a shadow is a two-dimensional silhouette, or reverse projection of the object blocking the light. It begins as the light moving through but is blocked depending on the density. When we rise above the illusion of our shadows, and hide under the wings in truth, your shield is found. Death keeps us under and life does not save us. That which springs forth from the two, leads to one. It ALL belongs to the Keeper of Shadows. Few have found His home, and ALL have yet to see His face.
Psalms 91
He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.
Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.
He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.
Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;
Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.
A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.
Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.
Because thou hast made the Lord, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;
There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.
For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.
They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.
Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.
Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.
He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honor him.
With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.

Yeah, but this god person of yours says lots of things, including a heck of a lot of stuff that completely contradicts others stuff! Why waste your time trying to live according to a morally vile code based on self-referential, inconsistent ramblings of 2000 years dead Jewish mystics??

There's only one way to get to heaven, through the acception of our lord Jesus Christ!. Unless you have never heard of him before, in which case there is another way to get to heaven because you can't "reject" jesus if you have never even heard of him, so there is another way, which justifies that the bible is liying because it says that Jesus is the only way, uh? I guess people will go to hell even if they have never even heard of jesus.
