I think humans are going to be severely disappointed when they find out there is no heaven, no hell, all they get is dead. Of course it is hard to be disappointed in such a circumstance🙂

And you will be ecstatic when you find out that there is in fact a heaven, God thinks you are worthy to enter, and all you get is a lot more than just dead.

The law that is written in our hearts is simply knowing what is right. Like, it is wrong to steal, rape or murder. These don't need to be written in stone. We already know it in our hearts.

In the book of Matthew, Jesus says, "blessed are the peacemakers". This is but an example, there are others in this passage. But in these passages, Jesus never says, ...[text shortened]... g to everyone else, not just His followers. It opens the doors to everyone, not just Christians.

things are not that simple, there are always exceptions, times when stealing and murder are possibly the correct things to do. when things become subjective, who's heart written rule are we following then?

hilarious, you call my op foolish.......then go on to ask pretty much the same question i ask in my op.

You are saying the same thing that Im saying. God will judge people using the same yardstick/law by which they live, and by the law written in their hearts. There is no standard measure [like in the case of capital punishment] for everyone.

There are some attributes which all societies consider to be virtuous. While societies vary re capital punishment, ...[text shortened]... all of mankind will be judged according to whether or not they 'know' Christ are sadly mistaken.

You're not reading my posts with comprehension. I was being facetious.

I did make a mistake though. Instead of foolish I should have said idiotic.

if it turns out that the bible god is real....should we forgive him for his actions and inactions, maybe we should make him stand trial, or maybe we should declare war, or shun him j.w. style, or should we fear his power and go on bended knees.
how would the atheists on here live their days knowing what was coming? would we accept our fate, resign ourselves to eternal torture?

You reason as the atheists do Rajk. God will judge people according to His law, not according to some arbitrary law they follow.

1 Timothy 1:7
Desiring to be teachers of the law; understanding neither what they say, nor whereof they affirm.

Sounds like you old boy! You don't know Jack about the law![/b]

You are not as exclusive as you would like to be. God has made provisions for all people as he sent his son Jesus Christ to die for all of mankind. You are a typical selfish arrogant Pharisee type Christian.
