Some are counting on mercy/forgiveness as a free pass while ignoring justice, including just punishment.
Jorge Bergoglio is a prime example.

IF one were to read the NT....Romans in particular, one would quickly discern all have sinned and will face punishment. No exclusions for anyone born of man.
The Good News though is Christ died for our sins. He is the propitiation for our sins.
No other sacrifice is sufficient or even comes close.
Those trusting in scapulars, miraculous medals, enough "good works", etc to somehow avoid the hell fire are sorely in error.
The scapular and mm actually condemn the person wearing them or trusting in them as it's a rejection of the Gospel.
Will there be just punishment for those wearing/trusting in those.....you betcha.
