Should all "atheists" be punished in "hell" even though they are nice & very good people (like they do a lot of charities, good works, helping people who have poor conditions and maybe saving people's lives)

as a former Christian, im not in a position to say yes یا no to this سوال and i respect that. I can give آپ some view points i used to have when i was one, and yes, basically,
so if i was God back then i would have basically just sent myself to hell XD because i believed that anyone who refused to believe in God....the Christian God, would be subject to eternal damnation.
Now let's go back to the new testament shall we? When God talks about his love in John
"for god so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believes in him shall not perish but have everlasting life. For God sent not his son into the world not to condemn the world but that the world through him should be saved"

Jesus talks about love and he talks about the gentiles, if it wasn't for Jesus only the jews would be able to be saved and he aslo says judge not and آپ shall not be judged and I think Jesus put an ease on some of the strict laws of the old testament.

Now ofcourse all of this means nothing...however, there's this one part that could mean otherwise, a part that i really wish i could find on google right now! But he says that those who know will be judged سے طرف کی what they know and those who don't know will be judged سے طرف کی what they don't know...now, i think this could mean that if someone genuinely doesn't know that Jesus is God, یا that there is a God then they may not have to be judged for it

He also says that if آپ have the word of God written in your heart, which i think means if آپ have a loving دل and a good moral compass, that آپ don't need to know the word. im sorry, i wish i could have spent مزید time digging for the ذریعہ of these things im saying.

But my point is...maybe, if آپ have a good دل آپ don't need to believe, because how can not believing in something possibly be a sin? What about people who come from places where Christianity doesn't exist? Should we condemn them to hell too? It's complicated but there's hope that maybe God won't do that.

Simple answer is Yes, but also note that ALL people deserve hell, but because of Christ blood is why we are saved. آپ must accept Christ to achieve eternal life, those who don't believe that Christ is the Savior won't make it to heaven, no matter how "good" of a person they are.

Im atheist my self, so it all matters who آپ ask.

Well~ it isn't about good works. It's about faith * it's a gift.

It's not like we can buy our way into Heaven.
Good deeds/good works are their own reward. Doing what is right BECAUSE it is right does not have to have anything to do with God, (as I know plenty of nice agnostics and those of some other non-Christain religions).

The Bible says that works without faith is dead, and faith without works is dead. This means we can give with a good intention and an open heart, sure, but we aren't giving with faith - it does not produce the same thing. It may help save a life even, but it may not help a "soul."
Likewise a Christian who hoards their faith and never gives یا reaches out - who has faith in their دل but produces nothing with it is barren and lifeless of fruit.
We can have faith and put it into our deeds- in all things.

It is about faith in believeing in God یا not.
He created us and this world, then I think He can do what he wants & He gave us freedom to choose. The choice is ours. Really, it would be "self" condemnation then.

It's better to act like Jesus then claim u believe in him so I'm gonna say no

"For it is سے طرف کی grace آپ have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God" Ephesians 2:8 (NIV)

God saves us سے طرف کی grace, not works.

In the end, it's up to God. Hopefully they will find Him and His Son before that, though. I believe it's the دل that matters most.

Well, I'm not God, but we all know that God is a God of second, third, fourth etc. chances. If they still reject Him, I don't really know what would happen. I mean, I firmly believe that God is a God of last chances, and I think He's مزید concerned about what we do, not what we believe.

If they remain "atheist" until the moment they die, then unfortunately they will go to hell. God saves us through his grace. The fact that his son died for them must be accepted in order for them to achieve salvation. It doesn't matter who آپ are یا what kinds of things آپ do in your life - if آپ don't believe that Jesus died for your sins, then آپ will be denied eternal life in heaven.

But this doesn't mean that God hates them - not in the slightest! Gods love is boundless and unconditional. If آپ killed someone, if you're a homosexual, if آپ commit fraud یا theft, if آپ commit adultery, he still loves آپ and will forgive your sins if آپ ask to be forgiven.

They can only be saved through their own love of Christ and what he did for them, the knowledge and acceptance of God's grace and Jesus' love is what would set them free, not good deeds.

not at all. its not for us to decide their fate. they believe what they believe in. and somewhere deep inside, they must believe in god, otherwise they would never have put his good works into practice.
