Do all Christians believe all non Christians go to hell?

[RyanEC]

About a month a ago some guy approached me with a flyer saying something like “the only way through heaven is through Jesus, it doesn’t matter how good you were without him since we are all sinful.”
This really bothered me because I believe in God but I haven’t committed myself to any religion because I feel like they are all Corruptible and tainted by human lust for power and control.

All major religions teach much the same moral values and ethics but according to this guy I spoke to all Muslims, Buddhists, Hindus, and Atheists will burn forever when they die.
Christians believe God is all loving and Benevolent but then turn around and say “if you aren’t in our club God will burn you forever no matter how good of a person you were.”

If you are Christian do you believe all non Christians will go to hell when they die.

In my research I found that some Christians believe in the concept of Universal Salvation for everyone.
Universal salvation means that everyone no matter what they believed or how they lived their life will eventually repeat and go to heaven.
If you have done evil you will get punishment but that punishment will only be finite until you repent.
I think this Doctrine makes much more sense in my opinion.

Of course not- Jesus said "“I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father [i. e., gets into Heaven] except through me." (John 14:6). Through *Me*- not "through the Church", or "through holding a particular doctrine", or "through performing the Chunga-Wunga dance at every full moon". Since Jesus is also (supposedly) omniscient, it makes claims that sect membership it's what's really important kinda stupid; the whole POINT (well, one of the points) of the Incarnation was to make a lie out of "YOU were never human, so you don't have the right to judge!". Jesus also pointed out the correctness of "‘And 'to love him [God] with all your heart, with all your understanding, with all your strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself’ is worth more than all burnt offerings and sacrifices.” (Mark 12:33).

And the doctrine of Original Sin is pure, unadulterated horseshit- ANY epistemologist, theologian, or human capable of basic moral reasoning will tell you that sin requires moral agency, and you CANNOT have that regarding events that happened before you were even conceived. It's a marketing gimmick, nothing more.

[RyanEC]

I actually did some research into this “original sin” question.
It seems original blessing came before original sin when God first told man to “be fruitful and multiply.”

I find the idea of original sin very Misanthropic.
It ignores all the good man is capable of and often is used as excuse for why people deserve hell.

I was raised Catholic but don’t believe any of it. One place I worked was near this evangelical church and we had a number of employees from that congregation.

Imho they were mostly insane. The girls around my age I did my best to corrupt them. I asked one out she actually said “If you wish to court me you have to come to my church.”

They actually had one of their chief brainwashers confront me in the store while I worked. They didn’t like me questioning their beliefs and telling them historical facts about Christianity.

When the guy couldn’t come up with anything he just started smirking maniacally muttering “My Gods better then yours.”

The three girls around my age all had arranged marriages at the same time. Probably still giving the church a portion of their income. I’d point out the preachers Mercedes while they rode the fucking bus.

[TransAm85]

I've been reading a lot of stuff about this too b/c I was raised Catholic and if u really look into it.. Catholic/Christians are all about $$. They brainwash the people and they're all occultists. There is a God and Jesus Christ, but the way the Catholics set the rules is really in a twisted way.

[RyanEC]

It seems the Catholic Church is pretty corrupt, but there are some good people there.

What do you believe now.

[TransAm85]

Have u ever heard of a guy named Santos Bonacci? He talks about the Roman Catholics, Greek theology, astrology, numerology, Hinduism, and how it all came about, how the government uses the symbolism from Roman Catholics to brain wash people.. it's interesting, but scary.

[RyanEC]

No I never heard of him.
I’ll look that up.

[TransAm85]

He's got a YouTube channel Mr. Astrotheology.. he talks about science and aliens.. everything. It's very interesting but strange how he incorporates it w/the government, Roman Catholics, and occultists..

[Bratsondanielle]

Lol I hope not. Can you mail me the paper? 😄😄 I'd have to check.

[RyanEC]

Mail you what?

[Bratsondanielle]

The flyer on how to do it

[BarryLiverstone]

Nope and I’ll give you a practical example. A baby dies for any number of reasons. I don’t think the baby goes to hell just because they haven’t taken the leap of Faith to know God. I’m happy to hear you are open to God and pray you continue to learn more as we all do in life.

[RyanEC]

Thank you.

[BarryLiverstone]

You are welcome

[docster]

The guy with the flyer is correct about Christian doctrine and I agree with him 100%. The people who claim to be Christian and believe in universalism are apostates. God is loving, that's why he gave us the free gift of salvation through Jesus. If people reject the free gift He's offered, they've made their choice. Good works don't pay for sins. It's like trying to wash a car with muddy rags and no water. It just smears the mud around.

[Richardceorl1]

dude there are scary verses in the bible

[goaded]

I don't think all of them do, but it's probably in the letter of the Bible.

“Nothing makes you an atheist faster than reading the Bible,”

Isn't it odd that God didn't simultaneously and unambiguously express herself in a language that everyone could understand around the world?

A sentence or two on how to test hypotheses would have been helpful, too.

[TroyDT]

Great question. I asked a local pastor this same thing and he said, "No one here knows how God chooses to apply the blood of the Son in the twinkling of an eye between life and death."

[all_hayl]

don’t worry about what Christian’s think. Look at what the Bible says. For example, genesis 15:1 and John 17:3 basically tell us what “heaven” is - and it’s not what many people think. Cheers!

[RyanEC]

Can you elaborate.
I looked those passages up but I didn’t understand.

[all_hayl]

I just tried to respond but it won’t let me send it because apparently it’s too long. Two or three paragraphs-ish. I’ll try to send it to you in a private message.

[all_hayl]

That didn’t work either. The short response is that there are many many scripture that tell us that none of us are good people, since we are all sinners, and that personally knowing Jesus is the definition of heaven and eternal life. That’s what those scriptures say. There are others as well, like Matthew 7:21–23. And yes, biblically speaking, non-Christians do go to hell, but by their own choosing, since the Bible makes it clear that man rejects God and goes his own way. We have determined, biblically, that heaven is defined as unity and relationship with Jesus, and therefore those who do not know Jesus are, by definition, destined for hell. This is probably difficult to understand unless someone has a grasp of the Bible is a whole and is aware of our own selfish, sinful nature. I could give you a bunch of Bible verses that illustrate all of this but that would take a while.
I’ll leave it at that for now. Hope this helps. Cheers.

[all_hayl]

There is a way that seems right to man, but in the end it leads to death.
Proverbs 16:25, 14:12.

[all_hayl]

One more I will mention. 2 Corinthians 10:5. Basically says that our own opinions don’t necessarily matter, and that if we have an opinion or belief about something, we are submit it to God‘s truth. If our opinion or belief does not align with the truth, we are to ignore our opinion and stick to the truth. This is very inconvenient these days, considering that people tend to be quite opinionated (based largely on ignorance and selfishness), and it’s only getting worse, as we often see on social media etc.

[RyanEC]

What about good people in the world who are Muslims, Hindus, Atheists who have done more good in the world then yourself?

Do you believe yourself to be more righteous and worthy of gods love then those people?

Perhaps you like the doctrine of heaven and hell that puts yourself in a position above most others.

[all_hayl]

The Bible also makes it clear that there are no good people. Respectfully, you’re welcome to think whatever you want about me and my having ostensibly put myself on a pedestal. Moving on. I hope you find what you’re looking for. The truth is inconvenient for us selfish, ignorant human beings.

[RyanEC]

I feel for other people that’s my problem. I can’t imagine a person from another culture going to hell because they were born in the wrong time and place to adopt Christianity.
It seems cruel to me.

[jshm2]

Christians and pagans are the only ones who will go to hell.

Other faiths do not place partners or equals to God.

[genericname85]

christians don't even know what the fuck to believe, cause their 2000 year old book is so cryptic and contradictory in so many vital matters of their world view.

[Andres77]

It doesn’t matter what anyone believes. If there is God then what HE says is all that matters.
Scary stuff. Also, hopeful.

[all_hayl]

You’re not wrong.

[all_hayl]

I forget who it was that said, “The truth is the truth even if no one believes it. A lie is a lie even if everyone believes it.”

[Andres77]

@all_hayl
Absolutely correct !

[CloudMassacre]

Not all of them. There’s a bunch of different interpretations of The Perfect Word of God that have different people going to hell or no hell at all.

[MrTaboo]

No, not all. Some have the miss guided thought that as long as you're a good person you'll go to heaven. Which is not what the Bible says.

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

It's what the Bible teaches. You need Jesus Christ to be forgiven of your sins.

[Guy13]

You are accurate in number ways.

[Guy13]

The only way to be sons and daughters of God and with Him eternally is In and Through Jesus the Christ as Savior and Lord. All men are fallen influenced by power etc and commit Evil and cause Suffering (Putin etc). Jesus atoned for those Sins for those who are foreknown to know of Him. One has to know Him to benefit from the Atonement obtaining His righteousness before a Holy God. Without Jesus separation form God is one's eternal state (Hell).

[katiesmuff]

I doubt it!

[KostasKouvalis]

Yes.

[KostasKouvalis]

TRUE Christian's at least believe that

[RyanEC]

Do you believe that?

[KostasKouvalis]

No, but I don't count because I don't practice anymore

[RyanEC]

Oh, so what do you believe.

[KostasKouvalis]

How can someone who has their own beliefs and has no concept of the Christian heaven and hell go to hell?

[RyanEC]

Who are you talking about.

[KostasKouvalis]

Indigenous jungle dwelling people

[RyanEC]

I mean what do you believe in in terms of God, and heaven and hell.

[KostasKouvalis]

I'd rather not talk about it, because I don't even know myself to be completely honest

[RyanEC]

Me neither I just know I believe in a God and the afterlife but I am not committed to any religion.

[KostasKouvalis]

Me too pretty much, but I believe in science more.
