As the late Keith Green put it:
You're gong to find out that He's the way
No matter which way you choose
But I pray you find out by His love for you

Seriously? That's your counter argument?
Feel free to make the case that there are other gods on equal footing with Yahweh.Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd
But I'd rather be a fool in the eyes of man
Than a fool in the eyes of God

I see no reason to think your god could exist. Yahweh, the torturer of babies in eternity.
But you think an honest muslim must suffer forever? Or are they all dishonest?

Originally posted by Mountain Man View PostThink about it, Jimmy, would someone who refuses to submit to God really be happy in heaven? Heaven is nothing more and nothing less than spending eternity in God's presence. What joy is there in that for someone who spent his whole life on earth hating God?

God is fair. Everybody on earth is given exactly one lifetime in which to accept God's mercy and grace, and I fully believe that God knows exactly what is required to convince each one of us, and he gives it to us, but he leaves it up to us to whether or not we will accept.Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd

Originally posted by Mountain Man View PostNo, they're not going to be happy in any sense. It just strikes me as odd that someone would complain about God not allowing the unrepentant into heaven when there is nothing about heaven that they would find the least appealing.
