Do you believe as a Christian that some non Christians will make heaven as well?I remembered when one of our senior pastor once told us that being a Christian does not guarantee you heaven and that some non Christians will make heaven as long as they are good and obedient to God.Do you think He's right?

Heaven is for those chosen by God to be there. And this must believe in Jesus. They must be born from water and spirit. John 3:3.

Those servants of God before Christ are not going to heaven. They will spend eternity here on earth.

The Gospel has been proclaimed right from the fall of Adam. Christ is the promised seed of the woman, which shall crush the head of the serpent. the Gospel is typified in the ceremonial laws of the Jews. They showed their faith in the Christ which was to come, by laying their hands on the sacrificial goat, confessing their sins on it and then killing it. showing that someone is coming who would take their sins upon his head. so, the old testament saints and the patriarch even before the mosaic institutions were saved by faith the Christ which was to come. we, now are saved by faith in that Christ which has come.

But they were not born again. John 3:3. That only existed when Jesus came. So aren't going to heaven. That does not mean they won't gain eternal life.

It seems you are working round the clock to fulfill your father's desire which is to kill, steal and destroy.
John 8:44
Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.


You can never change the truth however you may fight and kick against it.

John 3:14-21 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:
That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.
But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.

The prophets were all justified by their faith but they did not receive the promise of eternal life because Christ was yet to come.

Well Christianity is not just a religion like Islam or any other religion.
I will like you to visit www.gotquestion.org, you may find it helpful in understanding Christianity.

But just a cheap in, Christianity centers around God, the person of Christ, his sacrifice and the him being the solution to man's condition and also him being the hope of those who trust in him.

I hope God might reach out to you to see the truth of Jesus Christ.

If you go through that book of John 3:5, it says that it means being born from water and spirit. Water is for water baptism and spirit is baptism by the holy spirit.

None of the servants of God prior to Jesus coming knew anything about that. That was why Nicodemus was confused.

They aren't going to heaven. David mentioned another hope available at Psalm 37:9,29.

John 14:3
And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.


If you are not born again you cant see the kingdom of God.

John 3:3
Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.

The water here does not mean water baptism it means the word of God.


1 Peter 1:23
Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.

Hear again what peter said, it is only those that are born again that can live forever.

Dont let the satanic Jehovah witness organisation that loves to twist the truth fool you.
You can never live forever without being born again.
The JWO loves to fool people with false hope

Jeremiah 14:14
Then the LORD said unto me, The prophets prophesy lies in my name: I sent them not, neither have I commanded them, neither spake unto them: they prophesy unto you a false vision and divination, and a thing of nought, and the deceit of their heart.

Only those who belong to Jesus will eventually live forever, no hope for those who died without faith in Jesus, they are perish.

Yes, faith in Jesus is essential for salvation as you said.

I appreciate your point. In that 1st Peter 1:23, the incorruptible seed is God's holy spirit. And that is not far from what Jesus was saying in that John 3:5. Someone receiving a new birth undergoes water baptism afterward he receives God's holy spirit. That completes he's being born again.

Yes, God's word is a product of his spirit so the word can do some cleansing on believers. However, the water and spirit cannot all refer to God's word the Bible.

Why not? Because if the two refer to God's word then nicodemos must be viewed as a born again Christian because he has heard the word both from the synagogue and even from Jesus himself. many two have heard the word yet they choose not to believe in Jesus. Can we then say that they are still born again Christians since they have heard the word?

Consider what happened on Pentecost. many heard the word. however, they got baptized and later received God's holy spirit. So granted, hearing the word is essential, however without baptism and receiving the holy spirit we can't say that one is a born again Christian. You will agree with me that some may have also heard the word of during that day but they did not get baptized.

What do you think?

@ bolded the incorruptible seed is the word of God.

To be born of God is to be born of water and the Spirit.
The water is not water baptism but the word of God, which is the gospel of Jesus death and resurrection.

To be born of the Spirit is to have the Spirit of Jesus Christ residence in him.

Water baptism is just symbolic of the real baptism.

Hearing the word is one thing but recieving the word with faith is another.

Hebrews 4:2
For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it.


You see for one to be born of the word, he or she needs to receive it with faith.

In the beginning it was never intended that Adam and his descendants will one day leave the earth to start living in heaven!
Earth was designed to be man's eternal home! Psalms 115:16
It was the rebellion in Eden that led to man's death and that doesn't give man automatic visa to the place that wasn't made for him in the first place.
So all the faithful servants of God from Abel until John the baptist had the hope of resurrection back to life on this planet to continue living on a peaceful earth where there will be no more evil! Job 14:13-15; Psalms 37:7-11; 67:6-7; Isaiah 35:5-6, 65:21-25
When Jesus (Michael) came to the earth, his assignments included organizing the Israelites for a global preaching and teaching program because they're the only race having all these wonderful promises {Matthew 10:6,15:24} the arrangement is for them to spread the good news of God's promises throughout the earth for other nations to receive and claim these wonderful hope {Zechariah 8:22} their city Jerusalem will become the seat of God's government {Isaiah 2:3} and by means of this all the people of the earth will be blessed! Genesis 12:3
So Jesus will come to organise the Israelites who will take the message to all the corners of the earth {Matthew 28:19-20} but the nation proved to be faithless { Luke 11 29-30} killing all the faithful prophets {Matthew 23:37-38} and finally they plotted and killed Jesus the redeemer himself! Luke 23:27-31
Before all this, God has revealed to Jesus everything that will happen to him in the midst of his own people Israelites but Jesus wanted to help Abraham's offsprings to fulfill the promise God made to their father Abraham, so while they were hostile to Jesus and those following him, Jesus told his close confidants that evil will befall Jerusalem {Luke 21:24} this made Jesus' followers really sad! cry
So the questions lingering in their hearts are.
What will become of God's promises regarding Jerusalem?
Where will the seat of God's government be if all what Jesus said happens?
Will the government still be given to the descendants of Abraham?
Are they still going to rule with the Christ as promised?
That is why Jesus told them not to worry, he made it clear to them that in his father's house (heaven) there are many mansions, he will go and prepare a place for his government to sit with him! John 14:1-4

So those going there will be majorly Israelites but God will pick individuals who displays unwavering faith in Jesus to complete the needed figure! Matthew 22:1-13
Those going to heaven can't go with human body so they must be transformed into spirits, that's why God started selecting them from amidst Jesus' faithful followers only, that's why Jesus told Jews who thought the promise is their own that if they're not Born Again they can't be part of that arrangement {John 3:3-8} even Jesus' closest confidants shouldn't think it's an automatic thing because it's God (NOT Jesus) that will choose the Born Again {Matthew 20-23} but God will select them only from amongst Jesus' followers (those Jesus have trained to rule), that's why Jesus said none of all faithful servants of God from the beginning until John the baptist can be part of the arrangement!

You can say that again my dear young lady.

What used to confuse misinformed churchgoers is their laziness to study God's word without anticipating instant material gain. They want to earn something from whatever they devote their time to do, whereas Jesus never promised his followers any material reward now!

For instance after studying the Bible with a so called Pastor on this topic, he asked me

"What about Enoch whom God took and Elijah that went to heaven on flying chariot" Genesis 5:24; 2Kings 2:11

Then i asked Mr Pastor

"Who is Jesus?"

My friend started saying so many lofty things about Jesus, but when i reminded him what Jesus said about anyone ever been to heaven where Jesus himself came from Pastor was dumbfounded!

Foe Jesus said

"No man has ascended to the heavens except the one who descended from heaven the son of man (referring to himself)" John 3:13

Of course God kept Enoch and Elijah safe in their grave until the day of resurrection, Enoch lived during a time when most people were evil so for them not to kill him God took his breath and bury him the same way he did with Moses at the age of 120 years {Deuteronomy 34:5-7} Enoch on the other hand lived 365 when God took away his breath!

Elijah was taken to another side of the earth and there he lived until his death, but before he died Elijah wrote a letter to the king of Judah! 2Chronicles 21:12 smiley

I don't understand? I thought you said that the instrument for the new birth is only the word of God which is in agreement with the way you interpreted 1st Peter 1:23?

So if I understand you very well,you are now saying that the instrument for the new birth include the word of God and the spirit of Jesus? And if so is that still in line with the 1st Peter 1:23 quoted, because you seem not to support the fact that the holy Spirit is included in that 1st Peter 1:23?

Are you also saying that water is not involved in the new birth that it is only a symbol that one has gotten the new birth? If yes, do you have any scriptural support for this?

Jesus did explain what he meant by being born again. John 3:5 said that the person must be born from water and spirit. I understand these to mean water baptism and baptism by God's holy Spirit as what happened in the first century clearly shows.

Not all went through that process. The ancient servant of God before Christ came didn't go through any baptism and they did not receive the outpouring of the holy spirit during Pentecost. So this persons cannot be called born again Christians. In fact they are not even Christians since Christianity started after Jesus appearance on Earth.

They would however, gain eternal life. psalm 37:29 shows that they will inherit the Earth and they will live forever on it. Those going to Heaven will rule over them. (Rev 5:10)

Rozz:
Do you believe as a Christian that some non Christians will make heaven as well?I remembered when one of our senior pastor once told us that being a Christian does not guarantee you heaven and that some non Christians will make heaven as long as they are good and obedient to God.Do you think He's right?
