If God wants to save people, then in my view, he will give everyone an opportunity to join him after death.

Those who like to seek power and riches through lies and treachery will reject God because they will refuse to live under his rules. The will be sent to hell, separation from God, which could be very similar to this earth. There, they will continue to scheme and plot for power over everyone else. Nancy Pelosi and her ilk will reject God in death as they have in life in the belief that they can rise to power in the afterlife.

Those who hate scheming and plotting and lies will accept God and his ordered life and will be finally free of people like those we see on earth, at the cost of God’s light yoke. Love your neighbor and your God.

HMMMmmm...


Luke 16:19-31
 
19 “There was a rich man who was clothed in purple and fine linen and who feasted sumptuously every day. 
 
20 And at his gate was laid a poor man named Lazarus, covered with sores, 21 who desired to be fed with what fell from the rich man's table. Moreover, even the dogs came and licked his sores. 
 
22 The poor man died and was carried by the angels to Abraham's side.[f]
 
    The rich man also died and was buried, 23 and in Hades, being in torment, he lifted up his eyes and saw Abraham far off and Lazarus at his side.   24 And he called out, ‘Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus to dip the end of his finger in water and cool my tongue, for I am in anguish in this flame.’ 
 
25 But Abraham said, ‘Child, remember that you in your lifetime received your good things, and Lazarus in like manner bad things; but now he is comforted here, and you are in anguish. 26 And besides all this, between us and you a great chasm has been fixed, in order that those who would pass from here to you may not be able, and none may cross from there to us.’ 
 
27 And he said, ‘Then I beg you, father, to send him to my father's house— 28 for I have five brothers—so that he may warn them, lest they also come into this place of torment.’ 
 
29 But Abraham said, ‘They have Moses and the Prophets; let them hear them.’ 
 
30 And he said, ‘No, father Abraham, but if someone goes to them from the dead, they will repent.’ 
 
31 He said to him, ‘If they do not hear Moses and the Prophets, neither will they be convinced if someone should rise from the dead.’”
