Ill leave those decisions to God alone
That's a good idea. God already made those decisions - it's in His Word. It is not a mystery.
Matthew 7:13 "Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it.
John 14:6 Jesus answered, "I am the Way and the Truth and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.

As I said, no one on this board has come back from the afterlife to tell us that there’s no one but Christians in there.
I will not presume to know exactly what Jesus meant by “through Me” — whether it means “professing a belief in Me” or “by acting consistently with My principles of loving God and your neighbo” or that He is also a Gatekeeper who evaluates the quality of our lives with us (as some who have near death experiences have said) — nor presume that non-Christians who lived virtuous lives find the Door barred to them.
