RE: Bible Question
Still the question I asked was direct and you give no specific answer, I take it that in the hypothetical case I presented, Hitler would find himself in heaven and many of the people who died because of his decisions would end up in another place as that is what I can grasp from your quotes. Would you not find that as kind of lacking in justice?
Justice...that's one of those words that I can never wrap my head around when I hear of heinous acts committed against children; and, abuses against peoples at the hands of a person overtaken by evil.
It's the case where I have to admit my humanness; in that, knowing someone gets to have their day in court after plowing down unsuspecting people on a sidewalk, leaves me voting for swift justice of retribution in like kind. And then, I'm at peace that they have another day of life to seek forgiveness and maybe serve their time in a way that can be of use for God's glory. With God all things are possible. I must refrain from judging lest I receive the judgment I put on others.
So, smh...I'm not the person to have the discussion about 'justice' with. That's a case for God; and, I trust that He has His Hand on the 'Justice' button.
About Hitler...his mother was a practicing Catholic; and, he was baptized and confirmed in the Catholic church.
That said, I don't believe in once saved always saved; because, many turned back from walking with Jesus; and, He rendered them of no use (John 6:60).
So, not judging; but I'd find it very hard to believe he's in heaven. After all, HELL is a real place. There's the lake of fire that few people ever talk about; but, it's a real place. (Revelation 20:13, Matthew 13:50).
God says, You will know them by their fruit (Matthew 7:15-20).
So, calm your thoughts. I'm glad you're open enough to believe in a Creator. Only He can bring you to the truth as He'd have you receive it. Truthfully, I'm more concerned about people who still have breath in their bodies, and refuse to believe that there is life after this one; than those in which the die has been cast, no pun intended.
Best regards.
