For another view of Christianity:
I also believe that God will not cast his children into hell.
I believe that the Bible teaches that Jesus died for all his children and he will not lose one. Throuighout time, everyone on the earth has not been reached by missionaries. If God had children in those far reaches of earth that people did not get to, I don't think God let them perish forever. It's really not a matter of what I think, though, but how I interpret the Bible. I believe the Bible says all His children will have eternal life in heaven. Someone did have to pay for the sins of his children, and he sent his son Jesus for that purpose.
We are not able to live sinless lives. God is not pleased with our sins and will NOT favor us and might punish us for not following his way, but according to the Bible in my interpretation, he will not punish his children forever. The Israelites were his chosen people, and he got angry with them when they lost faith and disobeyed, but he did not cast them into eternal hell.
That would also mean every person is not His child. He stated that he loved Jacob and hated Esau. I don't know why, but I accept it.
I also feel at ease not to worry about everyone's salvation. Since I read the Bible to mean that it is entirely in the hands of God, I feel no pressure to need to go out and help bring anyone into salvation. If I felt that everyone needed help, then it would be hard to sleep knowing that someone could not be saved because I didn't work hard enough.
I do believe the Bible teaches to spread the word, but it's the spreading of the good news to people whose hearts have been touched by God, therefore, a child of God, who would get great comfort from hearing what the Bible teaches.
Gosh, for someone who doesn't want to discuss religion, and especially on the internet!!!!!
My main objective was to point out that everyone of the Christian faith does not believe the exact same way. Presbyterians believe that salvation is pre-ordained. A smaller denomination that goes by the name of Primitive Baptist or Old Line Baptist in the US (I think it has another name in UK) believes in an elect, also, God's chosen. And both of these denominations have no doubt that Jews, Moslems, Buddhists, etc., will be in heaven. I think they believe that they, along with Christians and people with no faith affiliation, who are touched by God and start understanding, through him, that some of their actions are sinful and continue to do them, will miss some of the joys that life here on earth have to give them.
