do Christians think that if Hitler really did repent and meant it, he would end up in heaven?

Question

it's a follow up to someones previous question, im just interested in christian answers

Answer 1

I cant picture him saying he was sorry
he had 6 milllion chances

Answer 2

well actually the only thing barring him from entering heaven would be the fact that he committed suicide. but there have been many reports that he was actually killed quite nicely by his attendants or perhaps not even dead at all but living in Argentina (yeah right....). however the pope at the time basically condoned the holocaust by turning a blind eye to it so the holocaust wouldn't keep him out since in fact he was killing jews and other minorities. it's really strange how catholic teachings are so contradictory like that. and of course this was back when you could just buy your way into heaven so i'm sure he donated a big chunk of that nazi gold to the church. the jews and the catholics have always had a blood feud after all, the whole you know killing Jesus thing.

Answer 3

Yes, salvation through Jesus Christ is available to all who truly repent.

Act 3:19 Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord.

Romans 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

Answer 4

I think so. Forgiveness may be hard for others to understand but God does forgive. However, in my kind of Christianity, the likes of Hitler will first have to pay in their lives at the lower heavens.

Answer 5

Yes he would because it does not matter what we see as unforgivable sin, only what God sees and if Hitler truly looked redemption on his death bed are you going to limit God by saying that he is too bad to be let into heaven. The arrogance behind this question is astounding. It is also a good thing he would be allowed in heaven because when it all comes down to it to God everyone of us is just as bad as Hitler without Christ to justify us.

Answer 6

According to history, Hitler had gone pretty much insane, and was very depressed before he committed suicide. there is no indication of him accepting Christ into his heart. But , if he did, then Jesus himself would have accepted him. The Apostle Paul was the same type of personal, and look at him, he wrote most of the New Testament, and died for his beliefs. Look at the 2 men on the cross on either side of Jesus, The list goes on, and on.
Now fair is fair, why do you hate Christians, and Why do you persecute them? Isn't that what Hitler did? Let me answer that for you. YES. That make you just like him!!!

Answer 7

From what I've heard, Hitler goes to heaven if he believed in Jesus, regardless of what he did during his life or if he repented for it.

Answer 8

Hiltler killed himself I do not think he regretted anything buthis ultimate failure. If by any chance he did repent trruly at last second he could indeed ens up in heaven but it is not our gift it is that of God and I for one am not going to fall out with him over that

Answer 9

Jesus said to the condemned man on the cross next to him "Today you will be with me in paradise." Anyone can be saved if they repent during their dying breath. Even Hitler.

Answer 10

Yes (but only if it was before Hitler died). Jesus said "For God so loved the WORLD that He gave His only-begotten Son, that WHOSOEVER believeth in Him [i.e. the only-begotten Son of God -- in other words Jesus] should not perish, but have everlasting life." (John 3:16, KJV).

It is from this verse that hymn writer Fanny J. Crosby got the inspiration to write:
"The vilest offender who truly believes,
That moment from Jesus a pardon receives."

Jesus also said: "For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through Him might be saved." (Jn 3:17, KJV).

This was Jesus' mission on earth as a Man: to make possible mankind's salvation through His perfect, voluntary, atoning death on the cross.

The above verses were supplemented with:
"He that believeth on Him [Jesus] is not condemned [in the post-death judgment]: but he that believeth not is condemned ALREADY, BECAUSE he has not believed in Name [Jesus] of the only-begotten Son of God." (Jn 3:18, KJV).

Here we see that mankind is ALREADY deserving of the condemnation to hell, because we have all rebelled against God (Romans 3:23; Rom. 6:23). It also starkly reveals that no one can make themselves worthy of God's forgiveness by their own actions, for they already owe God an unpayable debt: the best we can offer is the equivalent of a soiled, old pair of underpants for the new clothes of His that we squandered (Isaiah 64:6).

Humanly speaking, Hitler never deserved forgiveness -- but neither do any of us, Divinely speaking. Yet such is God's love that ALL may come to the river of life provided by the sacrifice of love that Christ made on Calvary.

I urge all of you to take Christ as your God, Lord and Saviour today, while you still can.

Edit: Chona S, Judas Iscariot was NOT forgiven: he repented for betraying an innocent MAN, NOT God; he therefore repented as an unbeliever. Jesus said '... WOE to that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! Good were it for that man if he had never been born.' (Mark 14:21, KJV).
How could it be woe for Judas, if he would be forgiven? There are other verses that point out the same thing, you need to check them yourself.

Answer 11

I'm not a traditional Christian because my view of what Christianity really is, is different from traditional, meaning Catholics and Protestants.

But to answer your question, yes, I believe he will be forgiven. Even Judas was forgiven.
