Unfortunately, many hear the message and turn away, thinking they are better than the mass murderer, so surely they will go to heaven. They will not.

You are correct sir.
My opinion is, Hell will be filled with "good people" who thought they were so good, that they went about trying to establish their own righteousness. Heaven, on the other hand, will be filled with "bad people" who were so bad, they recognized it, and fled to the savior for forgiveness.

Well stated. And it takes the Holy Spirit to regenerate a soul. An individual cannot save themselves because the spiritually dead dont know that they are dead until their eyes have been opened to the truth. Again, that is by the work of the Holy Spirit alone.
