Can good people go to hell?

How do you know anything since you can prove absolutely nothing?

That people make things up is not an extraordinary claim. It happens all the time.

That Gods exist and are so obsessed with sins is an extraordinary claim.

Can you prove it with a sufficient level of evidence proportional to the claim?

I never claimed that I could. I also do not question God's word. I also don't go around asking silly questions like our friend there does.

Following commandments isn't enough. You need to do something to rid yourself of sin entirely. Only Jesus can do that.
If you have a concordance, look up the word "forgive" and its variations as relating to one's relationship with God as found in the Tanakh.

Why then must the daily sacrifices continue? Because sin remains.

Refer to the book of Hebrews.

So me and my friend were talking about religions. And he said asked me do I respect the 10 commandments and listed them. I answered yes to all. I do respect them. Then, he asked do I help other people. I answered Yes. He asked me what do I do. I said: Today I helped my brother with picking up 30 min of his trash so when he come home he doesn't have to. I also cleaned my mom's room as a surprise. altogether about 2 h. I then asked "What is hell?". He explained it and I asked who goes to hell. He said: Non-Christians. So I respect the commandmetns and am good to people (In my opinion) and I do think Jesus did miracles, but he is not the ONLY way to god, and I would go to hell. Is that correct? Just wandering, I don't really belive in hell ;)


Well, simply put, you have duties towards both the Creator and the creation. Being good with the creation only, that is people and animals, may not grant you heaven.

Actually I don't believe in hell or heaven, this is the only life we will ever have, enjoy it, no need to be greedy.

If you tell someone they are going to hell, I believe it's nearly a sure bet that you are going to hell, that is if such a place exists.

I know non muslims will go to hell.
Nope, to say you "know" who is going to hell makes your statement a lie, because you do not know. The question is, why do you want people to believe that you think you know what you are talking about?
