I just don’t like the fact that some on this thread are that Christians will meet God in heaven.

I'm assuming you mean here, "I just don’t like the fact that some on this thread are that Christians won't meet God in heaven." Otherwise I don't understand why you wouldn't "like it" when someone doesn't go to heaven.

Moving forward with my assumption above: God is, as I said before, "Just", so it cannot be said those who actively rebel against Him can go to heaven. It's the reverse of the situation I described earlier.

He is a just God; He cannot change from that, which means those who follow Him will be rewarded and those who don't will be punished. Without this assertion, He just becomes some other bland, worldly god that has no real power at all.

It is sad when some reject Him but its their choice ultimately. Best to pray for everyone on a regular basis.

Sorry for the typo. I meant to say that some of this have suggested all NON-Christians will live eternity without God. I disagree with them wholeheartedly. There’s plenty who label themselves as a Christian and who were baptized, yet they live completely immoral lives. There’s also plenty who aren’t Christian who live moral lives, defend the innocent, and follow Jesus’s teachings even if they don’t know Jesus. I believe the second group will be welcomed into Heaven. The first group...not so much.
