Christians: How many of you TRULY believe that nonbelievers will burn in hell?
PLEASE ANSWER THE QUESTION DIRECTLY. No sidestepping like the first two guys.
Please be clear in your answer, and state that you ARE a Christian if you are one, and a born-again Christian if you are one.
(I would never be so stupid as to think the atheists wouldn't post even though I'm addressing my question to Christians, LOL. Atheists are at least half of R&S, and I recognize that.)

God decides our fate. No one should tell anyone they are going to hell. Blessings

Two types of people in this world.
1) Those who believe that they are sinners and that Jesus Christ died for their sins on the cross and then rose again on the 3rd day. These people accept that salvation is a free gift that can not be earned. They place their trust in the sacrifice of the Lord Jesus Christ and him alone. [http://www.bereanbiblesociety.org/goodnews.html]
2) People who believe any and all other things for their salvation. This includes people who believe in God, but who have not trusted in Christ Jesus and his work on the cross. It includes atheists, agnostics, religious types, moral people, etc. [http://www.matthewmcgee.org/qa1.html#Q2] There destination is described here:
Revelation 20:14-15 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. (15) And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.
I would place myself in the first category.

A Christian ! It is not for us to say or determine who is bound for Hell or who will not. Many who think they are in God's grace are in fact......NOT! So is useless to make accusations when we are not God and we do not know his mind.....
I will just tell you that God says more than several times all throughout his Book ," For those who do not believe or trust or love me or my children, the "Fires of Hell" await.

Catholic:
I think that God is real. I do not believe that nonbelievers will go to Hell. What about people who have never seen a bible, met a priest, received communion, or prayed at a church? I think God will give them a chance to believe. What if you never knew God, and suddenly were being burned?
Jesus will come again to judge the living and the dead.

I am Christian but I believe that most people will find a place in heaven. It may not be near the Lord, but hell is reserved for the most wicked, such as those that murder innocent people or who deny the Holy Ghost after receiving a perfect knowledge of it. Thats going by the scriptures but the Lord will be the only judge.

When push comes to shove, I identify myself as a Christian and I do not believe any sentient being goes to hell because I do not believe in the existence of hell. I don't think much of hell is spoken of in the bible tho I'm no bible authority.

Why Jesus will send you to hell if he really loves you? even if you don't believe in him?
