What's comedic about most Christians is that none of them would ever think they were going to Hell, but they're quick to judge everyone else on the little sins they commit.

Honestly, I don't know what the actual criteria for heaven is. I am a Christian and I hope that I go to heaven but I also hope that it's a pretty open place because there are a lot of folks that I'd like to meet. I've always envisioned meeting Jesus after you die and if you accept him and love him then you go to heaven no matter what you believed on earth. If you reject him and turn away then you don't go to heaven - again, no matter what you believed on earth. Naturally, I have no idea whether any of this is true or not but it's comforting to me.

I am a Christian and feel that i will be going to heavan. As for others I can not say. The only one who knows for sure is God. I can not in good faith tell anyone they are going to Hell because Iam not God. Just a follower.

Ask a question such as this and you will get bible answers.
Luke 16. Matthew 25:31-?
Hell wasn't even created for people. It was created for the devil and his angels. But because people reject Jesus thats where they will go.

They can't be certain that everyone else is going to hell, but if you assume they are, it's better then assuming their not, otherwise they may never hear the message.

Paul says in Romans 10:9...that if you confess with your mouth Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.
Read Romans. The entire plan of salvation is there.
In Christ,

Only those who have rejected the Lord Jesus Christ are going to hell.
God has given us absolute assurance of our future in heaven with Him. And He also told us in His Word that not all will be allowed into His eternal kingdom. Many will say, "Lord, Lord" on that day.........but not all will enter.
So remember.......it's only everyone who says "no" to Christ that will go to hell.

No one should be certain they or anyone else is going anywhere - the result is between you and God.

Christians are people, and people only know what their heart tells them.

Being certain about who is going to hell doesn't really interest me. That's up to GOD.
I know where I am going....
...do you?
