Christians: Can a Non-Christian Go to Heaven? by ProfBills(m): 1:09pm On Dec 14, 2005
In john14: Jesus said he is " the Only way" in acts 4:12,no other name by which men shall be saved.and the references are just too many.

But now the multibillion dollar question stands all day long! Can a non-christian who does not believe in Christ go to heaven? I'm talking about Muslims and other religions like the bahi and judaism. Can a well thinking person answer me without any atom of fanaticism? I need cogent proofs.

jonh 3:3 says that no one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born again. Also no one comes to the father except thru the son.

so if anyone does not belief in God he can not enter into heaven.

U know when Jesus died and he rose up from the grave the 1st place he went to was hell. he did this to give the people who died before the birth of Jesus the opportunity to hear the good news and to accept him as lord and saviour. in the pit of hell he held captive principalities and powers and made an open show of them. remember he took the keys of hell from satan and his held bound until the amageadon war.

ProfBills.

You asked:

the question is can a non christian go to heaven?

but the first time you asked:

Can a non christian who does not believe in christ go to heaven?

Two different questions with two different answers...

Please clarify

layi,

You have the wrong idea of what the word "christian" means. This is a man-made word and not a God given name for His Church.

can a non christian go to heaven?

Yes

Can a non christian who does not believe in christ go to heaven?

No

It is not for a mortal man to decide or make a conclusive statement on who goes to heaven or not, however we know what the Lord Jesus himself has set for us when he was here on earth....he is THE way, THE truth and THE life.....not A way, A truth and A life....THE mean it has no alternative.....in the same vein, it is not all who say LORD LORD will inherit the kingdom of God but all those that do the will of God....and doing the will of God STARTS with knowing he sent his son to die as a propitiation for our sins....that is the starting point....certainly not the end point.
Re: Christians: Can a Non-Christian Go to Heaven? by Oracle(m): 2:22am On Dec 15, 2005
it depends on where u view christianity from
a christian is someone who acts, behaves, lives like Christ
so someone who behaves like CHRIST, is free from sin and
remains faithful to the end will make it to heaven
Re: Christians: Can a Non-Christian Go to Heaven? by JosBoy4Lif(m): 5:45am On Dec 15, 2005
Will a good Muslim not go to heaven?
Even tho he believes in God, but does not believe that Jesus is the Messiah...I beg to differ

I think the important thing is to be God fearing, its those that have no faith (athiest) I worry for them
Because they are saying their is no God at all
And also Hindu's i worry for them, because their religion is man made (worshipping cows, and other animals and diety's)

Will a sinning Christian not go to Hell? Will good Muslim not go to heaven?
These are all questions that cannot be answered objectively...Their is no right or worng answer
It is just what you believe in, But i personally believe that those who live a God fearing life will go to heaven

Remember that christianity is an off-shoot of Judaism. In fact The true title for Christians is Judeo-Chrisitans (might be spelt wrong)
Ironically all God fearing religions stem from Judaism (Islam and Christianity)
It would be absurd  to say that only chrisitans go to heaven in my own view...

Remember their was no Christianity or Islam in Africa before they Arabs and The Europeans came...
Does that mean all our ancestors were going to Hell? What of Chineka, or JaJa, or Ataa bway?
Were these not all faith driven gods, that claimed that there was a higher being?

The Koran[2.87] And most certainly We gave Musa (Moses) the Book and We sent apostles after him one after another; and We gave Isa (JESUS), the son of Marium, clear arguments and strengthened him with the holy spirit, What! whenever then an apostle came to you with that which your souls did not desire, you were insolent so you called some liars and some you slew
Re: Christians: Can a Non-Christian Go to Heaven? by Hndholder(m): 1:08pm On Dec 15, 2005
The Koran[2.136] Say: We believe in Allah and (in) that which had been revealed to us, and (in) that which was revealed to Ibrahim and Ismail and Ishaq and Yaqoub and the tribes, and (in) that which was given to Musa and Isa, and (in) that which was given to the prophets from their Lord, we do not make any distinction between any of them, and to Him do we submit.
Re: Christians: Can a Non-Christian Go to Heaven? by Hndholder(m): 1:11pm On Dec 15, 2005
The Koran[2.253] We have made some of these apostles to excel the others among them are they to whom Allah spoke, and some of them He exalted by (many degrees of) rank; and We gave clear miracles to Isa son of Marium, and strengthened him with the holy spirit. And if Allah had pleased, those after them would not have fought one with another after clear arguments had come to them, but they disagreed; so there were some of them who believed and others who denied; and if Allah had pleased they would not have fought one with another, but Allah brings about what He intends.
Re: Christians: Can a Non-Christian Go to Heaven? by Hndholder(m): 1:14pm On Dec 15, 2005
[3.45] When the angels said: O Marium, surely Allah gives you good news with a Word from Him (of one) whose name is the '. Messiah, Isa son of Marium, worthy of regard in this world and the hereafter and of those who are made near (to Allah).
[3.52] But when Isa perceived unbelief on their part, he said Who will be my helpers in Allah's way? The disciples said: We are helpers (in the way) of Allah: We believe in Allah and bear witness that we are submitting ones.
[3.55] And when Allah said: O Isa, I am going to terminate the period of your stay (on earth) and cause you to ascend unto Me and purify you of those who disbelieve and make those who follow you above those who disbelieve to the day of resurrection; then to Me shall be your return, so l will decide between you concerning that in which you differed.
[3.59] Surely the likeness of Isa is with Allah as the likeness of Adam; He created him from dust, then said to him, Be, and he was
Re: Christians: Can a Non-Christian Go to Heaven? by Hndholder(m): 1:16pm On Dec 15, 2005
[4.157] And their saying: Surely we have killed the Messiah, Isa son of Marium, the apostle of Allah; and they did not kill him nor did they crucify him, but it appeared to them so (like Isa) and most surely those who differ therein are only in a doubt about it; they have no knowledge respecting it, but only follow a conjecture, and they killed him not for sure
