To: Salvation
Salvation is provided for EVERYONE... John 3:16. For God so loved the world that WHOSOEVER believeth on Him, should not perish but have everlasting life."

This means the vilest of sinners, whosoever!!!

BUT!!!!!!!!! the key word is believeth! ... to those who do NOT believe, and accept Jesus' blood on calvary as payment for their sins, the answer is NO!! NO!! NO!!

...and the words " depart from me, I never knew you." will be heard on that fateful day of Judgement!

God's Word is clear, no amount of " good works" by any athiest will gain him or her entrance into heaven..period. Pope's statement or not!

Did you read the Pope’s real words?

This article is not accurate at all — just portrays the journalist’s view.
