"A person who loves is going to God the Father through Jesus, whether they realize it or not. Those who love are born of God."

So lets all be really nice and we will go to heaven. We don't need a great commission all we need to do is tell everybody be good. It doesn't matter who you believe in, trust, or pray to, just be nice and we will all see each other in heaven.

We've already been through this. Those born of God love and abide in Christ. And I speak of Biblical love, not 21st century "being nice". I am speaking of dying to oneself, something that man cannot do without the Spirit's presence. A person who dies to himself is from God, whether they know about Jesus of Nazareth or not.

Regards
