I've always wondered about this....it's an honest question for heaven and h**l believers?

Question

I'll keep it short. Do you have any deceased, beloved relatives and/or friends who rejected your faith and you believe they went to h**l? It would have to be someone you loved, of course. It might be a little too easy to imagine a horribly abusive father in h**l. I'm just curious how believers come to grips with the thought of a loving mother or father being tortured for all eternity. Thanks.

Answer 1

Yes I do and I will say it again God gave freewill. My cousin was taken at a very early age and at the time she was on drugs drinking and all other kind of stuff. You just have to face reality if the Word of God says it then it is True.

Hope this Helped  God Bless

Answer 2

No

Answer 3

Twas their choice, my friend, twas their choice.

God love you!

Answer 4

Well, they can always sleep tight knowing that God's justice will prevail.

Answer 5

Christians should never put themselves in a position where they can say that someone is in h**l or not because we have no h**l to put them in.  The response to this question is always "I can't say.  God is the judge."

Answer 6

I have many relatives who were/are fence sitters.  I had a very kind but  terribly alcoholic step father. A brother that committed suicide. I don't know what happens to them.  I know God is fair and I trust Him.

I think the atheists that come in here ranting against God may be judged quite harshly.  

Answer 7

Hey Chris, very Jesus of you.  He would be proud.

If you get to heaven and your grandfather is there, would you be happy that he made it, or sad that everything you believed in was a lie perpetuated on hatred and superiority?

Answer 8

I believe they will be given the chance to hear and understand the fulness of the gospel and not just the part they heard here and then make a choice. I think God is very merciful that way. It isn't for us to judge if someone has gone to h**l or not. Maybe there was something missing for them to hear.

Answer 9

Ultimately we can never really know. But by their actions, lifestyle and the fruits that they bear, We can have a fairly clear idea of their destination.

I wasnt saved until after my mother had died. I wish that I could have at least told her of the things of Christ. She wasnt totally ignorant of the bible. But her beliefs did not line up with scripture... so yes I hate to admit it, but my mother is probably suffering for all eternity.

Answer 10

I don't know where they will wind up.  It's not up to me.  I pray for them all, anyway, in the hopes my prayers might make a difference.

Answer 11

h**l is not as bad as "they" make it sound, really.

The lake of fire is actually, only a campfire with people signign kumbaya around it!

Answer 12

No, I don't. I don't believe in an eternal fiery h**l.

Answer 13

I have two grandfathers (of course, like everyone does).

One believed the Gospel of Jesus Christ.  The other refused even as my uncle pleaded with him on his deathbed, approaching his final breath.

He made his choice and went to eternal h**l.  Why would he refuse to believe?  Who knows why some people are so stubborn and foolish.  When it's so easy to avoid h**l, and be 100% sure of heaven.
