How does it make you feel, knowing that all people of non-Christian religions and people of no religion are going to hell?

It makes me feel the same as people on Death Row: sad, but they are receiving the consequences for their unbelief. I consider all non-Christians to be evil, even if they act good and do good deeds. They may not act evil publicly but on the inside they are indeed evil. Much of the time the evil is suppressed and does not manifest itself until certain conditions occur, such as the removal of police, Christians removed from society, or someone like Hitler using the government to approve evil.

For non-Christians and atheists, God has given them the final consequences of their unbelief. God is merciful and gives them time to repent, to believe in Jesus, but most do not.

And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God. --John 3:19

When a person, such as a homosexual, repeatedly and willfully persists in that behavior which is disobedient to God, well, God cements that person's choice:

And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet. And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient --Romans 1:27

God also passes judgment over entire nations such as telling the Israelites to go into Canaan and kill all of them and take the land. The Canaanites were evil, sacrificing their children to idols, engaging in homosexuality and bestiality and all other sorts of abominations. After awhile, God passed a final judgment upon them.

It is my opinion that God has passed a final judgment upon the Arabs and others who are evil, turning them over to Islam, Indians to Hinduism, and Jews to Judaism which denies Jesus is the Messiah thus making it an anti-Christ religion the same as Islam. All of these non-Christians are getting the fruit of the seeds which they have sown in unbelief.

And just believing in God does not make you good.
Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble. --James 2:19

Hmm. I sense a lot of evil here.

Heaven will be on earth, or on an earth, for those who are saved. Others will perish. There's a 1,000 year period during which I don't remember what is supposed to happen. The Bible says then, we will not have to work for anyone, and we will not be harmed by any animals.

Grew up SDA. Was then a JW bible study but dropped out.

Funny thing, if the guy on Death Row repents his sin and accepts Jesus into his heart the minute before he's executed, he's saved, right?

When Jesus was on the cross, next to him were two thieves. One repented, one did not. Jesus told the one who repented "Today, you shall be with me in paradise."

If the person about to die is truly sincere and repents, believing in Jesus then yes, he is saved. But if it is just a "Yeah sure, I'll believe. Whatever" or"What can this Jesus dude do for me" rather than "What can I do for Jesus", then I would say no, that person is not saved because the motive is incorrect. This explains in Matthew 7:21 Jesus saying, "Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven;"

But the baby born to a Muslim mother who dies in infancy gets eternal damnation....

Babies do not sin. They are sinless. Therefore, they are not cast into the lake of fire which is the 2nd death. I would also say the severely mentally disabled also do not have sin. This is a gray area.

Gotta tell ya, I'd rather spend eternity with a bunch of babies than a bunch of last-minute Christian converts with harrowing rap sheets. Or, for that matter, with PP.

Your state in eternity is based upon Jesus: accept him as Lord and you will live; deny him as Lord and you are condemned to be cast into the lake of fire.

But know this first of all, that no prophecy of Scripture is a matter of one’s own interpretation, for no prophecy was ever made by an act of human will, but men moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God. --2 Peter, 1:20

It requires no special interpretation, no PhD in theology to plainly understand "Thou shalt not commit adultery." It does not require a denominational publication, a priest, or pastor to explain this. It is clear and unambiguous.

Maybe you need to learn to read and comprehend English better because you misinterpret everything you read.

So if this PP uses this argument,
…’if you do not believe in Jesus, you are condemned. Your name is not written in the book of life:
And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. Revelation 20:15’

… then the poor souls that loved before Jesus never had any chance at eternal life? Just because they were born before 2,000 year ago?

- and the people that aren’t exposed to Christianity? Contemporary people (living on this planet now)? They are condemned to no chance either?

Hmm.

"What determines where each person will go?"

when the neurons stop firing there is no "person." No vapor escapes from the head at death.

Anything that goes to heaven or elsewhere is immaterial, i.e., not physical.

so why worry about this? Who made it up it the first place and why? No one has ever dies and come back to tell about it, so the only correct answer is we don't know.

yeah -- it doesn't make any sense, but that doesn't stop people from believing -- especially those lucky few who have been exposed to Christianity; They can think they are going to live eternally because they have accepted Christ as their savior. I don't think they are thinking much about the poor souls who never even heard of him.

You know what? I was raised as a Christian, but people like you turned me off of it completely. You profess to believe, yet you are hateful and judgemental and mean. People who hear you, read what you write, or see your behavior are going to want nothing to do with Christianity.

Here is a non-Christian's assessment of how you are doing at modelling Jesus's
love.

According to your religion, Jesus advised his followers not to be judgemental, that only "he who is without sin may cast the first stone..." (John 8:7). Your score here: FAIL

Jesus advised his followers to be "fishers of men" (Matthew 4:19), living/speaking in a way that would draw others to the faith, not put them off wanting to hear about it. Your score here: FAIL

Jesus advised that "all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another” (John 13:35). Your score here: FAIL
