[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To the PPs who say the Bible doesn't say unbaptized people go to Hell, explain this:

I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me. (John 14:6)[/quote]

Where does that verse mention baptism?  [/quote]

Really?

You need to be baptized to fully accept Jesus, no? That's a big part of it, right?

So if you have to go through Jesus to get to God, it would stand to reason that you need to accept Jesus. Accepting Jesus requires baptism, right? [/quote]

Where does the Bible say you need to be baptized to fully accept Jesus?  In fact, where is the explanation of this verse?  Anything could be "through Jesus."  [/quote]

Ok, sure.

But those who don't engage with Jesus at all--aka Jews, non-Christians--don't go to heaven, right? [/quote]

In Christianity, Heaven is full communion with Jesus Christ for all eternity... why would a non-believer want that?  It wouldn’t make sense for someone with no relationship with Jesus to even want that.[/quote]

... because the alternative, according to Christians, is hell? Hell is not supposed to be a pleasant place.[/quote]

And what does the Bible tell us about Hell?  Very very little.  Perhaps it is simply the absence of God, or the end of your existence altogether.[/quote]
