I'm actually amazed you know other people's salvation.

Justice isn't about being fair. It's about upholding the values laid out by the law. If someone violates the law, even if it's for all the best intentions, the law must be satisfied, and a sentence must be executed. Every culture on earth grasps this concept. Because men's laws are made by men, we accept that some violations are justified because men's laws are just that: laws made by imperfect men. But God is not only perfect, but also holy, and His law demands that anyone who would see Heaven also be perfect and holy. Once sin entered into human nature, that was no longer a possibility. In order to redeem men from their fallen state and return them to a state of perfect holiness, Jesus came and lived a sinless life and gave it to us to claim as our own. This way both grace and justice can be served at the same time. There is no other way to be justly freed of the guilt of violating the law, and if you don't believe that, you can't benefit from it and must pay the price yourself, even though the price has been paid for you.

Not everything that looks nice is nice when you go digging deep inside and you find all kinds of filth and abominations which led to more deaths than the guy who killed 50 and go his life right. Anybody who says he does not need God, is a god to himself. So, what would that make him think of you?

We all have the choice to become a Christian and follow God... We have to work harder at convincing people and praying that their hearts be softened...
Really to be totally cynical - such is life...
Now you can check out the Noah story and say how unfair God was to drown all those people, but all those people had 100 years to see that God was going to do what Noah said God was going to do... but instead they decided to point and laugh... until it was to late... I am trying to make my life look like a good advert for accepting Jesus, I want every one to go to Heaven so does God... People have an opportunity to accept or reject God... everyone has that opportunity....

You do not understand becasue you use your brain. Christians do not use their rational thinking skills, follow no logic, and blindly believe any NON SENSE they have been brainwashed to believe.
The concept of a God that would send people to be tortured in hell ,because of a religious belief, is simply proposterous. It is so sad they do not realize that.

God is a Holy and Just God. Fairness is a human term. It's not about what WE do that saves or condemns us, but what Jesus did for us that saved us. What we do in response to Jesus saving us is a choice we must make and That results in where we go for eternity. The person who may have killed that goes to heaven would have had to have asked Jesus into their hearts and changed by Jesus thru their willingness to obey and follow Jesus after repenting. Jesus judges our hearts to determine our eternal destination. Christians will be judged for their works at the Bema Judgment Seat of Jesus Christ and will recieve or lose rewards. (This does not determine Heaven or hell, as christians go immediately to heaven due to accepting Jesus' free gift of salvation and living for Him in this life. God bless

Because Heaven owned by God.
If you want to go somewhere and get in there, you shuld know:
1. The way to that place
2. Who is the owner, and the owner shuld know you either
3. have relationship with the owner.
It means when you broke up His law, then ask for His forgivness, He will still accept you.

It is because the murderer has asked for forgiveness from God, where as the person who cures hasn't asked for forgiveness. God will forgive any sins if you just ask. Those who are arrogant and won't ask, or think they don't need to ask won't be forgiven.

Because God forgives all sin. He doesn't consider murder to be worse than a lie. The Bible says that if you have broken one law, then you are guilty of breaking all laws. Which means that all sin is equal.

Life...and religion, isn't fair.
Those beliefs were those of the people that wrote and edited the Bible. no one klnows the mind of God, althought there are those that believe, fervently, that they do.

Read Ezekiel 18. And you don't really know who is cursed and who is blessed, unless you judge one's heart, do you?
Work out YOUR salvation daily, with fear and trembling.
