Those Who Don't Make It To Heaven

[Skye1300]

Do you think we'll forget the people who don't make it to heaven as an act of mercy by God? Here's my thoughts. I think when we get to heaven if someone we love is NOT there, we'll know they didn't make it to heaven, so we'll know the person is in hell. What if it's an adult child, husband or mother or father? Won't we be sad knowing they are not there? How can we fully enjoy heaven knowing the person we love is in hell? Thinking of them suffering and burning.
So my theory is that those who don't make it will be erased from our memory. So if you had 5 kids and one didn't make it, you will think you just had 4. If your parents or spouse didn't make it, you just won't remember them. It's like the verse that says some will cry out Lord Lord and God will say I never knew you.
Like how God throws our sins into the sea of forgetfulness. Those in the end who don't make it will be thrown into the sea of forgetfulness where even God won't remember them? That is truly a hellish existence if even God blots you from His memory.
God may do that as an act of mercy to keep people from suffering knowing their loved ones are suffering and also so that God Himself doesn't have to feel the pain of the ones who didn't choose Him suffering in hell. He'll also throw the devil and it's angels in to the sea of forgetfulness too so evil will be blotted out and remembered no more. If we remember loved ones, we'll know they are in hell and knowing about hell will make us remember why they are there, which will make us remember that evil existed. So in the end the devil and all it's angels and human followers will be thrown into hell and hell itself will be thrown into the sea of forgetfulness. Evil will be remembered no more. That's the only way we can fully enjoy heaven. What do you think?

WE will be changed, to see what the reality is, of who that 'person' is at that point, of what hell is, and of who God is and why it had to be that way.

This is partly speculation, but it's based on some pretty good ideas from Scripture, and I'm convinced there's something to it, that the being in the Lake of Fire no longer resembles the person we once thought we knew, and we would hardly find ourselves calling it human anymore.

Oh okay I see. That makes sense. Thanks!

One scripture which may give a clue to this is:

Isa 66:24 "And they shall go forth and look Upon the corpses of the men Who have transgressed against Me. For their worm does not die, And their fire is not quenched. They shall be an abhorrence to all flesh.​

Note the scripture says that the people who have transgressed against God will be an "abhorrence to all flesh". I believe God offers salvation to all people, his mercy extended to all. When we look upon the deeds of those who perish they will be abhorrent to us, meaning we will perceive their deeds as evil having rejected what God's love truly is, rejected for their own selfish gain and sin. It will not be due to a lack of willingness on God's part. We will see this clearly.

Mat 23:37 "O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the one who kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to her! How often I wanted to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, but you were not willing!​

Those fortunate enough to make it to heaven will never be focused on the earth or hell. They’ll be in such unimaginable paridise that they won’t need to. A lot of earthly family’s will be torn apart and separated but you’ll be a new family in heaven.

I meant to say they’ll be in such paradise not parish.

St Pope John Paul II said it best, "God doesn't send souls to hell, they go there on
their own, by rejecting God."

Salvation isn't about who had the most willpower, it's about God's mercy and forgiveness.
Our job is to be contrite and repent and place our hope with Christ.

 

[Leaviathan]

This tells me that death is death, no hell, just ceasing to exist altogether. I think those who make it will be on a different plain of existence and won't even know who they used to be.

Hell is the grave ... not some burning place.

We will know who did not enter and why they did not. We receive either life for eternity or death for eternity.

God judges and His judgement is righteous ... no reason to question it.

4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.

Indeed will be tears ..... but we will get over it and live happily in eternity.

To add to what I said earlier, the Bible says that those in heaven will rejoice that people in hell are justly suffering for what they did. So those who make it will even rejoice that their past family members are in hell.

Where does the Bible put it that way?

Where does the Bible put it that way?

I'm assuming he means Revelation 16:4-7

4Then the third angel poured out his bowl into the rivers and the springs of waters; and they became blood. 5And I heard the angel of the waters saying, “Righteous are You, the One who is and who was, O Holy One, because You judged these things; 6for they poured out the blood of saints and prophets, and You have given them blood to drink. They deserve it.” 7And I heard the altar saying, “Yes, Lord God, the Almighty, true and righteous are Your judgments.”

Well that works too

 

[Aldebaran]

Well that works too

The one you posted is a good one too. I think they both work together. I've always wondered if people in Heaven would be rejoicing knowing that family members and other loved ones that they've prayed for and tried to reach for so long never ended up getting saved and now they'll never see them again. Not only that, but their loved ones will be suffering for all eternity during the time that they themselves will be enjoying paradise. It's hard to believe how that can be.
