If when you got to heaven you find out that EVERYBODY was there, including atheists. Would you feel cheated that nobody went to hell?

No, i would feel very relieved, that everyone made it, since I did not personally get around to witnessing to everyone.
Good question, just to stir the pot some, my father did a really thoughtless thing before he died and I have often said, that when I get to Heaven, I will have a long talk about that, with him. But in reality, being in the presence of God and His Son Jesus, all the things of this world will seem so petty, why bother. For the first thousand years, I will just praise Him, and after that, who knows.

God desires that ALL men be saved and come to a knowledge of the truth. But does that mean all will be? NOPE> He gives every person FREE WILL , and unfortunately , not all will believe in His offer of forgiveness and the gift of righteousness necessary for entrance into His Holy Heaven.
No one feels "good" about anyone going to hell...but it is their own choice. God has provided an escape, but it must be on HIS TERMS.
Athiests wont be there. Heaven is for those who BELIEVE God and take Him at His Word. No one else will be there...you have HIS WORd ON IT!

Read the parable of the prodigal son. The son that stayed home and worked hard was ticked off when his father welcomed back the son that went and blew his share of the inheritance on booze and hookers. The father slaughtered the best calf and threw him a party when he came back.
I think that if somebody is good enough for God, they are good enough for me. It would be nice if we could all act like hellions down here and still go to heaven, but I don't want to take the chance. I'll tone down my fun for now for the big reward later.

Don't believe in hell. Sounds like your looking for an argument. A true christian puts faith in god and gives him full glory to know what is righteous not there own screwed up imperfect ideas. Don't get a sheep by cutting off the horns of a goat. just an angry goat. No need to lay out pearls to swine.

If they were there,they would have to have been born again somewhere on earth before
death.
I don't understand your cheated question,because God's plan of salvation applies to all who repents and believes the gospel.

The sad thing about this question is that, in actuality, you will be the one who is angry when you find out that God does separate sinners from Himself, for He is sinless and Holy and cannot be in the presence of sin. That is why forgiveness is needed, through Jesus Christ--- that is why the gospel is so important!
I know that what you have just asked will not happen, for my God is not a liar. My God is truth--- the one and only God, maker of Heaven and Earth-- Jesus Christ who died on the cross and rose again so that we who believe could be set free from sin and hell, and given eternal life through Him.
There is no greater love!!
(Romans 5:8-9, John 14:6)
John 3:3 "Unless you are born again you cannot see the kingdom of God"
--Being born again of the Spirit of God, washed clean from sin-- redeemed by the blood of Christ. Praise be to Him!

I would not be angry only surprised. Maybe I only thought they were atheists because I did not know them. I would be happy that everyone could be saved if that were true.(However it is NOT) Only God knows everyone, he makes all of the right decisions. However God is holy, why would he be with sinners?

No I would be glad that no one is in hell suffering for eternity. I like being Christian and I like the life that I have, so no I would not feel cheated, I don't feel like I'm missing out on anything.
