Are they "wrong" and deserve punishment (Hell) just for not believe in Jesus?

There are many paths to God, if God exists. Christians who judge others and don't leave that busniess to God, are by their own standards sinners.

I would say NO. The right and wrong of a person doesn't solely depend on being a Christian or not. One could be Christian by birth, or be baptized as Christian but could be doing the reverse of Christ's teachings. One could be non-Christian but could be living a righteous life so likely patterned from Christ's example. Unbelievers, if they consist the great majority, are NOT considered WRONG, but rather, disinformed or misinformed of Christ's influential power to get everyone saved. Some are just so short-sighted that they couldn't see there's more to believe than believing none. We are all offered the same fair and equal chance to seek God in us, and to find what's best for our life.
In the end, should we choose to fail ourselves of this chance, we would still receive God's mercy through what we assume as punishment. And this would be death of the soul (after the death of the body), which means to become eternally non-existent...as opposed to eternal life.

There are 3 aspects to any taboo: Dogma, harm and the yuck ingredient. Dogma is a few thing you're meant to believe without question. So because of the fact guy or woman X mentioned this is undesirable, you're meant to believe this is undesirable besides. in the different case. harm is glaring. If somebody gets harm, maximum persons evaluate it taboo. The "yuck ingredient" is despite turns your abdomen. this is not a rational reaction, you merely experience grossed out. harm is very almost a conventional taboo, the diversities come from human beings disagreeing on no remember if some thing is powerful or risky (like circumcision or the funky disks some Africans positioned on their necks). Gays do no longer usually rob banks or bypass on killing sprees, so this is problematic to work out how they're risky to every physique. Selective analyzing of the Bible (dogma), and the yuck ingredient are the main in all probability solutions. yet i think of this is the actual question: Is a god that creates gay human beings then tells anybody else to hate them worth of worship?

I reckon most people are "wrong" anyway, Christians or not. We're all largely ignorant. The greatest folly is not realizing that, and mistaking opinion and belief for "the truth". The punishment for that is having to live with the consequences. The trouble is that we all have to live with those, whether we share the folly or not.

Everyone will have a chance to receive Jesus in their heart before Jesus comes back!

God said wide is the road to hell and narrow the road to heaven, so I guess most will go to hell......but that is a presumption. They are wrong for their disbelief in the God of Creation when He has given them a very clear and simple path to Him/heaven......Jesus Christ.

All people who do not praise Jesus are going to Hell.
He wants to hear priase, he wants to hear it loud, and he wants to know your praise is fervent.
He doesn't care so much whether you sin, but you must praise him. All who do not are destined for Hell, there to burn and rot forever.
According to my estimation so far, at least a hundred billion souls will writhe and scream in agony in Hell throughout eternity.

A true believer and follower of Christ would say they deserve salvation and reward in Heaven's eternal par-tay with Christ.
not hell and punishment
let the thumbs down rain....
XXOO (((((sail)))))
EDIT: I knew this would happen.... People I am simply saying that we need to truly understand the love of Jesus before we can say what someone deserves. My hope is in Christ alone - my prayer is that everyone comes with me to Heaven to be with Christ.... everyone deserves to recognize the love that Christ has for them. And ANYone deserves it more than I. Love is love. There will be people who reject it, but for my faith, I will grieve them, not condemn them.
blessings :)

The lessor half of the remainder, including Jews and Muslims, are just as wrong as the Christians....

That would be the implication, yes. And is one of the reasons why I came to disbelieve in the Christian message.
