[QUOTE="DavidPL, post: 68427950, member: 379488"] God knows who is going to heaven and who is going to hell. The Bible says that many are called, but few are chosen. It does seem that this would be sort of cruel seeing as how most people are not going to heaven and if I were God I would probably just want to throw out the whole thing, but God does not see things like we see things. Many people fail to realize that heaven is only for Gods children and we become a child of God when we accept Christ as our savior, I don't think it would be fair to let people into heaven who did not accept Christ into heaven and thus, they go to hell. I don't believe in literal hellfire, but a metaphorical hell where people are not literally burning but more of an eternal refinement. It is difficult for me to accept hell as being an eternal place, however. I don't believe that God knowing your decisions will affect free will because, while we may choose to do whatever we desire, God knows the desires of our hearts better than we do. [/QUOTE]
