The bible notes that unbaptized people will not be able to go to heaven and therefore go to hell!. If one lives their life to the best they can, but are not baptized, will they go to hell!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

What do you think!?

There is a theory that bad people when they die are immediately reincarnated to do it all again as someone else!. Thrust back into an unsuspecting world!. That to me would mean that 'here' is hell!.

As nobody knows, it would be safe to assume that all they have is theories!. If you live according to your conscience you will have a good life and that is all that matters!. If knowing about an afterlife was so important, then we wouldn't be so in the dark about it, angels would appear before armies and tell them to stop as they would all go to hell if they continued to fight!. We have soldiers and war heros who have murdered people, will they all go to hell!.

You need to remember that religions need people more than people need religions!. That should tell you everything!.

What would Jesus do!?

He would tell you his father has many mansions and nobody will be turned away!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

The Bible provides baptism as an open confession of faith, but does not include it as a necessity for proceeding negatively in an afterlife!. And no, you will not go to hell for not being a Christian!. If you are inclined to believe in God, our only forfeiture of going to heaven would be in "not knowing Him!." The groups we belong to, or not, have less to do with it!. However , if inclined, one would probably desire aligning with others, regardless of what they call themselves, which have a faith in God!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

This depends on the person!. In my opinion, you will not go to hell, but other christians may disagree with me!. I personally live by Marcus Aurelius' philosophy!. Read it and perhaps it will answer your question!.

"Live a good life!. If there are gods and they are just, then they will not care how devout you have been, but will welcome you based on the virtues you have lived by!. If there are gods, but unjust, then you should not want to worship them!. If there are no gods, then you will be gone, but will have lived a noble life that will live on in the memories of your loved ones!. "Www@QuestionHome@Com

I believe you will still go to heaven unbaptized!.

These things are of the unknown and you shouldn't worry about what could be or happen!.

Though in my opinion!.!.!. What it says in the Bible!.!. "Unbaptized people will not be able to go to heaven and therefore go to hell!."

Maybe it means!.!.!. The unwilling people!. The people that do not want to believe!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

i don't think so Hun!. everyone has there own belief!. not everyone is an christian!. Just because we are not christian that doesn't mean we are going to hell!. if so, then a lot of people that i know will be going to hell, because they are not Christians, they have a different belief and culture!. so what I'm trying to say here is that it depends on what you believe!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Hell is an idea created in order for the people not to commit wrong!.

Perhaps, hell is a state of unhappiness or suffering, an opposite of peace, comfort, contentment, success, and joy!.

For me, hell is not a fire wherein all bad people will be burn eternally!. Perhaps, it is a state of suffering!.

If God is all powerful and all knowing from past to the future, He can see that if he will create man, it is for certain that millions or billions of people will go to hell and will be burn eternally because a lot of them cannot be naturally good!. Then He will be responsible for that -to create many people only to be burn in hell forever!. That is not good!.

If God is good, then he will not mind to create them because He already knows the consequences!.

It is not a question whether you are baptized or not -as some superstitious and ignorant told you!. It is a question whether you are mature, responsible or good to your fellowmen or not!. If God is a God, he will be so wise so as not to categorize a baptize person will go to heaven and the unbaptized will not!. What is good in baptism!? It is only a mechanical act of pouring water in your head, and that does not change your personality into a better person!. There are a lot of criminal who are baptized!. There are also a lot of people who are not baptized but mature, responsible and exemplary!.

Only people who are dull and immature in mind will do and accept that stupid concept!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

If you don't believe in God then you ARE!
just kidding
it depends on if you actually believe in
you don't believe God or that Christ died for you so truly they can't send you to Hell
but you do believe in Heaven and Hell and the fact if you aren't baptized then you might go to Hell
No offense to people who do believe but i think Heaven and Hell are imaginary, you can think you are going to go to one place or another but i think we will all go to the same place when we die, kind of like the Underworld
i believe in God and that Christ died for me but i am not religious, i kinda mix all the beliefs i think are right
sorry if it didn't helpWww@QuestionHome@Com

Mar 16:16 "He who has believed and has been baptized shall be saved; but he who has disbelieved shall be condemned!.
Mar 16:17 "These signs will accompany those who have believed: in My name they will cast out demons, they will speak with new tongues;
Mar 16:18 they will pick up serpents, and if they drink any deadly {poison,} it will not hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover!."
Mar 16:19 So then, when the Lord Jesus had spoken to them, He was received up into heaven and sat down at the right hand of God!.


The Baptism that Jesus is refering to is the baptism of the holy spirit!.

also note that ius says to be saved you must believe AND be baptised!.!.!.!.but if you disbelieve then you shall be condemned!.

it doesnt mention baptism with condemnation!.!.!.no does it mention hell!.!.!.!.!.so the answer to you question is I dont know!.lol
and neither do any of the other people here spouting to you and not giving you biblical refrences!.!.!.!.!.!.

The other thing you must take into consideration is translation!. this is the NASB version!. If you truly want to learn more look in a hebrew/greek and look at the translation word for word!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Everyone always have a theory for the afterlife!. I believe that if there is a God or Goddess, it would only make sense that they are all loving!. And they would truly make a place of torture and demons, so the only place that would come near to hell is Earth!. Don't you think that if after we die, everything will be dark and you wouldn't exist anymore!? That isn't true, whatever made us, made it so that we came to Earth to learn!. The Earthly plane is our school!. And people warp Christ's words so that they can rule people by fear if you don't agree with them!. They people who change is words are the monk's that made the rules and everything benefit them and not people like you or me!. And you shouldn't be punish for believing in the dogma that people have created for themselves, that is just an example of ruling you by not guaranteeing the happiness you deserve in the end (fear)!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

no, you wont go to hell for not being christian!.!.!.!.!. however, if you are worrying about this, you should check it out for yourself!. i know this might seem like a nerdy, stupid answer, but please go to a local library and check out a book of morman!. (i know you're probably thinking "yeah right! thats stupid", but please just try it! it can hurt to try it) read the first chapter or two and try to make sense of it!. as you read, if you have a regretful feeling, that means that you might want to reconsider your whole "i dont believe in god" thing!. the more you read, the more you'll understand about god, if there is a god, which there probably is!. i mean, if there wasnt a god, then how did people even come to earth!? why is it that so many people swear the gospel is true!? think about itWww@QuestionHome@Com

The Bible doesn't say anywhere that if you don't get baptized you go to hell!. If you do believe what the Bible says read;
John 3:16, Ephesians 2:8 and Rom 10:9!. If we have to work to go to heaven as opposed to the bad things we do, we're in trouble, (John 3:23, John 6:23)!. If you're anything like me and most people because of our typical human nature we make mistakes now and then!. Fortunately because of God's grace He already made a way for us to get to heaven,
(Rom 5:8)!. It's an awesome gift!. If you don't own a Bible look for the Blue Letter Bible on line!. It has some great tools and a few different version choices that are right on!.Take care!Www@QuestionHome@Com

No!. Only god will tell you on Judgment Day!!! As for the bible says no one will reach haven until god destroy the world and the day of book of the will be open by an-angel of god with the list of names of people who will rise from the to be save or send to hell!. The End Of Church Days Is Near!. Trust in god and pray and read the bible over and over and always have god in your heart!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

if you believe the bible as the Divine truth, you can only be accountable for what you know right!? hey Lorelei, better to cut out your eye cast it into a fire than to watch a sin!. remember god is a loving god but he is also a jealous god, his words and the words of his son are the only ones that matter!.

I believe that a loving god - a spirit of love and healing - that we call by many names will not condemn a loving person - a person of love and charity!. Sending a person to hell would be a hateful, evil, and irrational thing to do!. God is within us and connects us to all other living things!. Would you cut off a part of yourself and torture it!? How silly!Www@QuestionHome@Com

I think as long as you beileve there is a god,and you dont worship anything else,i think you will go to heaven i don't think that matters!.I would say baptizing makes your relationship closer to god or jesus and i dont think you will go to hell for it!!
good luck!!Www@QuestionHome@Com

my suggestion is that u search your own self for that answer!. asking the general public will only give u a multitude of answers!. if u need to talk with someone about how u r feeling than i suggest u talk with an informed individual that u respect and trust like a priest, pastor, minister, parents, etc!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
