    It's hard to put a finger on just how their loving god will react.

    There is nothing that any body on the planet can do to be saved.

    Salvation is a gift from God.

    Accepting Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour is more important as much as the person does not go to church--attending church is worship in a building.

    The church technically consists of people gathered together in that building--also called "assembling together of believers."

    Couldn't say. First, what you're thinking of as "hell" probably doesn't exist. A lot of people have that mistaken. Second, what you actually do with your life and your intentions behind your motives actually matter. You haven't given us anything to even make an attempt to guess at their lifestyles.

    Let me ask u a better question..

    Imagine a Olympic running race..

    A:practices well and has the same experience as B.. But does not believe in God and doesn't pray..

    B: doesn't practice but is a devout believer in god. And prays before the race

    Now who will God help??

    If you say A then it means that God has nothing to do with it and it all depends on hard work

    If u say B then God seems to be a self absorbed person who is not just and therefore not worthy to be called God..

    I hope you get it..

    And to answer your question .. There is no hell..

    Only God can judge if a person goes to "hell" or not. I personally don't believe hell but maybe there is a just, kind God out there who wouldn't wish to punish someone for eternity

    Dexter, As a Christian, we are not the Judge. The Bible tells us that Christ will be the Judge at His appointed time. I attend church regularly because I find in Hebrews 10:25-27 that I am expected to do so. Have a great week!

    Thanks,

    No Christian should be able to truthfully answer your question. To do so would be stating that they know God's reasoning and judgement and know God's limits for forgiveness. They can not know God's thoughts.

    Methane Mama is right actually, Jesus said "judge not, condemn not". I have no idea, only God sees the depths of each heart.

    But how can an honest, "i don't know" be considered a way to weasel out? It's simple truth... I do not know.

    They'll warn atheists and people of other religions that they're headed for Hell. But if the questioning gets too tough, they fall back on, "Hey, it's god who judges, not me!"

    We all ( all of humanity ) shall go to Heaven dear.

    All shall stand before the Lord in Heaven to be judged.

    Judgment does not always mean punishment, sometimes it is rewards.

    Those who don't get to stay will be placed away from God & His children,

    Only God is our Judge.

    That would be up to God.

    I'd be curious to know why an Atheist, someone who totally rejects God, would want to spend an eternity in heaven with him.
