What makes you so certain there won't be buddists in heaven? Or Muslims, or whatever? What makes you so certain that the criteria for getting into heaven is so narrow? Maybe it is, maybe it isn't. But you don't know. The Bible gives us an outline of how to be sure we are going to heaven, but I doubt it's the whole story. How could it be? How could God put his supreme Godly perspective into words we mortals could understand completely? And what makes you think God has a choice? You talk as if He is able to let anyone into heaven He chooses, but the Bible teaches that anything unholy cannot be in the presence of God. So why blame God for Man's failure? You might as well curse God for creating us at all since not creating us or creating us as drones in the only way to insure we would never fail. God has made it as easy as He possibly could for us to be with Him for eternity, yet you blame him for having any restrictions at all. It's like someone offers you a million dollars if you would only put your hand out to take it, but you curse him for not putting it in your pocket for you. You might as well curse God for being holy, because that is what prevents the unholy from being with Him. It's like you light a match and put it to a sheet of paper, but then blame the fire for burning the paper. The fire cannot choose when to burn paper and when not to. Neither can God choose to allow unholiness in His presence. And as I've said more than once before, you can't get to know the true nature of God without interacting with Him personally. You would flame anyone who judged you or made any derisive comments about you without ever at least talking with you. (or exchanging posts) But you do the exact same thing to God. I have to leave on a trip for work. Get back to me after you've discussed your concerns with God. Dakota |
