Sorry, missed it in all the flurry.
It’s not whether I believe anyone should be or not.
It’s about wanting someone to be there.
It goes beyond this thread to an overall view of God, man, eternity.
Deserve? Dangerous road. You might find one day you do too. We all fall short or we wouldn’t need Christ.
I’ll say a prayer for your parents. That’s another post I never got back to. I hope all goes well. Take care of yourself also.
i would consign any number of living persons to the fire, starting with Osama Bin Laden & any of the other terrorists who slaughtered innocents on 9/11/2001.
further, ANYONE who tortures/rapes/murders anyone else, just because they choose to, DESERVES eternal torment themselves, imVho.
as for me, i'm a baptized believer in the Eternal Savior (NOPE, i'm NOT of your faith.) & therefore do not fear for my eternal home, though i will frankly tell you that i have David's problem : too much blood on my hands. (isn't the GRACE & FORGIVENESS of Christ incredible???)
