While in prison, Jeffrey Dahmer was baptized and expressed remorse for his many crimes. How do Christians cope with the fact they'll have to share heaven with convicted serial killers and other degenerates who sinned all their life and repented at the last minute?
Heaven doesn't exist
>>541066531Proof?
God is just and perfect. If he determines dahmer should be there because he repented and maybe went to purgatory, who am I to argue.
>>541066324Heaven isnt even in the Bible, neither is Hell. What gets translated to Hell is either Hades, the greek afterlife, Gehenna, the town dump outside of Jerusalem, or the pit, as is in the grave. What the Bible says is that when you die, you descend into the pit (grave) to await judgment day. If you are evil, you do not get buried and are thrown into the town dump. When judgement day comes, if you accepted Jesus as your savior, you get to live in the thousand year new earth and if you didnt, your soul is destroyed. After the thousand year new year, the world ends forever. The version of heaven and hell comes from the novels Dante’s Inferno and Paradise Lost but they are not Biblical
>>541066324Perfectly alright with it.There are many things Jesus says on the subject.And the only people who hate the outcome are jews and the unrepentant lmao.>Parable of the workers where those who only worked the final hour are paid the same as those who worked all day>The repentant crucified thief >The prodigal son>The two sons>Two Debtors And the proper response of all mankind is in the parable of the master and the servant.
>>541066939There is the visual of "The Rich Man and Lazarus" with the firey pit and what it, and Lazarus held in "Abraham's bosom", a temporary place of rest for the soul as he awaits the resurrection.
>>541066839repentance is not a get of jail free card to commit heinous acts against your peers on earthdahmer will be tried by the lord, judged, and summarily cast into appropriate fire forgiveness is only to be redeemed by the many families from which his victims were violently snatched amen
After death, everyone has their own heaven. It’s like a dream – there are figures, but only in your mind. After death, you fall into a sleep that lasts for eternity, never to wake up again.
>>5410663242 Corinthians 5:17Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.Jeffrey Dahmer is a new person entirely now.
People don't change
>>541066789Kill yourself and find out
>>541067037In judaism, the dead go to Sheol, a gray wasteland for all eternity, whether good or evil. The firey pit is referring to the pit where trash was burned in the town dump, where the bodies those who had no one to bury them were thrown in and cremated
>>541066324Dahmer was legitimately fucked in the head. He was supposed to spend his life in solitary confinement but waived that because he knew he would get murdered in prison and knew that he deserved it
>>541066324To me the funniest part: he basically said I may have killed and partially eaten these bucks but I am not racist! To him being called racist was worse than the death sentence.
>>541066324All Christians are going to hell. If they really accepted Christ as their savior they wouldn't have put him on the ballot. Republicans elect and protect pedophiles. Christians simp for Republicans and the attrocities they commit. Jesus would weep at ehat has been done in his name.
Who cares what happened in the span of a human lifetime compared to all of eternity? Also, didn't he eat mostly blacks? Blacks don't have souls or an inner drive experience, so that's not a problem, but it is a shame what he did otherwise to the human victims.
>>541066324You're not saved by "expressing remorse" nor even by getting baptized (with water). You are saved when you believe the gospel, placing your faith entirely in Jesus Christ and His finished work to wash away all your sins and justify you before God.The gospel is that the eternally existing Jesus Christ was born from a virgin, lived a perfect sinless life, performed miracles showing he is God, shed his holy blood on the Cross to pay for the sins of mankind, was buried, and rose again on the third day, appearing before witnesses before ascending into Heaven.We don't know what Dahmer believed in his heart, but if he did believe the gospel, trusting entirely in Jesus Christ to save him, then he is saved. That's the power of God's grace. Salvation is that easy.Remember that Paul, who wrote over half of the New Testament, was a murderer (of Christians specifically) before Jesus Christ appeared to him. Paul had faith in Christ and was saved on that day and spent the rest of his life in ministry because that is what Christ told him to do.The beauty of God's grace is that everyone can be saved. That should fill you with joy, not bitterness.Choosing to spend eternity in Hell because you are upset that someone you don't like is going there too is absurd.
