Youre confusing me. My comments colored.
First you said (to someon else)
When people say, "I want to party in Hell with my friends!" do they realize they are saying they have friends like:
- Hitler
- Pol Pot
- Mao Tse Tung
- Stalin
and do people realize the most important thing at a party? It's not the food, entertainment, decorations, venue or time. It's the people.
If these people are partying with the folks above, something they have in common put them in hell. They all have in common their crimes, so yes, you are referring to the people. However, given heaven and hell are not about what people do, what warrents these people to be in hell as opposed to heaven?
Heaven is a party where the mix of people contains only those who won't muss a utopia by never sinning/hurting others/causing others pain--the transformed.
What do you mean muss up an utopia? It has nothing to do with actions. Sinning is an action. So, if these people
- Hitler
- Pol Pot
- Mao Tse Tung
- Stalin
Are not in hell for their crimes, what are they in hell for (partying with their friends)?
Also, hitler and stalin could have given their faith in christ. Why would you list them if you dont know their spiritual belief if not related to their actions?
Then you said this
I'm going to be in Heaven despite my crimes, so yes. "Real Christians" trust Jesus Christ, not their actions, for salvation.
But what if Hitler, Stalin, etc are real christians?
They would be in heaven which would void what you just said here.
Either they are in hell because they sinned and commited crimes and not in heaven to muck up the utopia or it doesnt matter their sins because their sin doesnt send one to hell or heaven but their faith does?
Why the conflicting posts?
Edit: Also, you understand more of what others say when you dont read the posts verbatum. I read it for context. Thats exactly how we read the bible, by context. Thats why it works as a unit not by isolated scriptures no matter how studied. No historian looks at just one set of evidence to piece together christian scripture. It really goes beyond that...
