Re: post#2 >>>This is “way” above our pay grade to even consider. When the Bible says, “judge not”, this is what it is talking about. We are in a terrible position to “judge” worthiness for eternity.<<<
Agreed. A point to consider - Redemption is worlds apart from Salvation. Redemption requires adherence and obedience to the Ten Commandments

Obedience to the ten commandments was a part of the old covenant. The new covenant requires faithfulness to Jesus. They really are not the same. And Redemption comes only through a relationship with Jesus, which we are in a poor position to judge of anyone but ourselves.

Ah,you might want to check your theological books. What I heard was that Jesus of Nazareth was/is the onlyb Redeemer, and the price of redemption is His blood, shed on the Cross, and placed on the Mercy Seat of Heaven to assuage The God's righteous wrath.

Check it out, eh?
