Okay, simple question, Do you believe I will go to Hell after death because I’m Jewish?
Yes or no?
For the LORD won’t reject his people, Neither will he forsake his inheritance.
Of course not….going to hell has nothing to do with one’s ethnicity. Whatever could have given you that idea? Good grief…. you do know that Jesus was a Jewish carpenter, right? Going to Hell only has to do with the choices that people make while they are here on Earth. Having said that, what I believe about you is unimportant… the only thing important is what you believe and why. And if you want an argument about this, go and argue with Jesus Christ.
Romans 3:23 “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;” This is just a statement of fact. ALL humanity is guilty……every man, woman and child of every race and creed.
Psalm 51:5 “Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.”Another statement of fact…. Ever since the downfall of Adam and Eve, every person born is born into sin.
2 Peter 3:9. “The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.”God has made a way of escape through something called repentance for one’s sins. He doesn’t anyone to perish regardless of who they are, where they come from etc. These are promises for everyone. It matters not who you are…. The only thing that matters is what you do with the choices that have been given to you.
Luke 13:3 “I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.”There it is…. Laid out as clearly as can be done. Two choices await…. Repent of one’s sins and claim the promises of God that include an escape from Hell and life eternal in Heaven. Or don’t repent and perish and be cast into Hell. These are the same choices that are placed before every person who has ever lived.
John 3:16 “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” Out of love, Jesus came and died for us…. trust Him that His promises are true and that He will take away the sins that condemn you, repent and He will make you one of his own......a lost sheep that is found and now in the fold and to be with Him for all eternity.
