But its an easier path. You for sure know that a man born a Buddhist in a majority Buddhist country has almost zero chance of going to Christian heaven.


No
God will definitely give everybody equal chance to hear the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Salvation is by choice, hearing d gospel doesn't mean u will accept it.

Remember not until the gospel is preached around the world as a witness, Rapture won't happen.
Everybody will definitely hear d gospel, but it's now a thing of choice to accept it or not to.

Heaven is a location of reward, it’s No place of Entitlement.

God religion is LOVE. If you can love your neighbor as yourself either you are xtain or Muslim you will make heaven.

People are born into different family, religion, tribe and culture. I see some families with both Christians and Muslim in it.

My question now is that people who are born into a family of Islam, Hindu, Judaism, paganism and whatever, does it mean they can't make heaven.

Because I know I am a Christian basically because I was born into a Christian home, and I find it difficult to convert to any other religion no matter the amount of preaching, same goes to those born into Islam Hindu and the rest.

Please I need scholars in the house for more clarification.

It's for those with genuine salvation and are true followers of Christ.

The gospel will still be preach to them.

Remember when Jesus resurrected from the death, he went to Abraham bossom which paradise to preach the gospel to the fathers of faith..dem Abraham nd co.

For those that died before Christ, the gospel will still be preach to them.
But one thing u must know is that it's a thing of choice, some people will still not accept the gospel.

God created human being as a being of choice, u choose wat u wan bcuz it's ur right to choose.
God will never enforce anything on anybody.

Kindly read the Bible
U will see that the righteous pple that lived before Christ went to Abraham bossom or paradise.
When Christ died ,he already went to Abraham bossom to preach the gospel to them, so that end is settled already.

If you're a Christian because you're born into a Christian home, it means you're not a true Christian because Christianity is not by birth but by choice.

I'm not a Christian because I was born into a Christian home, but because I choose to follow Jesus.

I was a sinner bound for hell before that despite being born into a christian home.
Valid point , but dont you think if culture and nationality influences the choice you made?

we cant blam an arab for not beliving in God and say he will go to hell when he was born in an arab country and arab tradition.

if you were born chinese would you still be a vhristian?

Seriously, i have nothing to say. Bcus God's ways are different from ours. Some persons we critisized today have already been accepted by God. Being a christain doesn't make u a heavenly candidate but ur heart matters. Not by saying, i have accepted Jesus as my personal Lord and saviour.
The question is; is ur heart pure?
I don rest my case oo

Heaven is made for those who championed the will of God here on earth. Less I forget u were born into a church going family doesn't make u a Christian. A Christian is someone who behaves like Christ.

Heaven was made for everyone, but is inhabited by those who respond to salvation.

If you believe in the christain world view, and uphold the Bible as having supreme authority. Then you will realize anyone who refuses to meet God's requirement for salvation - Christ. Will go to hell and it will not be because God wants them to perish but because the have willfully rejected God's provision for forgiveness.


PS: Being born in a christain home does not mean you are saved. Accepting Jesus as your Lord and personal saviour is what does.
Do u know you are a Christian just because u were born in a Christian home?

What level of influence do u think one has over the particular family or faith they are born into?

Talking bout Hell:

Abraham, David, Moses and the rest were not Christians. And they are they fathers of Christians faith. Does that mean they are in Hell now?

Do u know that hell was never mentioned thru out the old testament?
Meaning Adam, Abraham and the rest didn't know about hell. Hell was mentioned only in the new testament.

And even the Bible said "The only Religion pure b4 God is taking care of the orphans and strangers alike"
Who gave Christianity as template for making HEAVEN?

So u mean God intentionally created ppl into a muslim, Hindu and the rest just to burn them?

What i understand is that all humanity won't escape the "hell" cuz as a Christian, if u escape the Christian hell, u won't escape that of muslims and others and vise versa.

You are a liar and whatever religion says that is lying. So the world was created for only Christian to make heaven? How do you convince people not borm to a Christian home ,who grew up and breed in another way to accept Jesus? You think it is easy.
So Jesus created the world but did not give everyone in the world the chance to be born Christian to have that early contact with Christianity, he made it hard for them to be born into another religion and now want them to convert?
You are a liar grin

Jesus Christ is only the way, the light to the Creator of Heaven and the Earth during his time, before his time, God in his infinite Mercies have sent many Prophets of which during their time, they are The Way, The Light, you can't reach Heaven except through them.

Finally, after the Prophetship of Jesus, the Son of Mary, God in his infinite Mercies and Blessings He sent His last and Beloved Prophet, Prophet Muhammad (May Peace and Blessings be Upon Him).

So we Muslims, we are the Rightful Followers of Jesus (Peace be Upon Him), and we also believed in his coming back, The Holy Qur'an talk explicitly on Prophet Jesus.

I recommend you guys to read more about Holy Qur'an, Qur'an talk more about Jesus Christ than the revised and revised Bible.

Heaven actually not "father".

If you want to meet Jesus' father, you talk to him. That's what that statement implies perhaps.

The however OP is concerned with heaven that he is already part of but unaware of.

U r intelligent. People tend to misinterpret the bible. Moreover, God says He will show Mercy to whom He chooses to show Mercy, no one tells Him what to do. So if He decides to allow non christains into heaven, no one can do anything about it and I am sure heaven is for non christains too. Solomon, David, Abraham weren't christains, would they end up in hell

you all don’t understand OP’s question.


We all know you have to believe in n Jesus Christ to enter heaven, but can one accept Christ salvation and still be a Muslim, or a Buddhist? Before you do that, or even when you do that, you will be associated with Christianity. So technically if you aren’t a Christian you can’t enter heaven?
Nah
Christianity is a religion, and not salvation
Faith is how we are saved

Arabs believed in God and also believed in the Prophetship of Jesus, the Son of Mary and also believed in the Coming back of Jesus but not as a Prophet but as a follower of Prophet Muhammad peace and blessings be upon him.
