I'm posting this here because I'm not sure if you'll be able to reply to me in the 'being a good person...' thread.

It isn't what you do, it is what is in your heart.
When good peope do good things, its from their heart wether they're christian or not. So make up your mind, if you can only go to heaven by worshiping christ, then it is "what you do", and not "what's in you're heart".
The more I read that quote the more it pisses me off, even though I consider you an intelligent person digi. Pretty much what your saying is, If I'm I'm not christian then my good deeds don't come from my heart. Wtf?
To reiterate, a christians good deeds and intentions come from the heart to the same extent as anyone elses, try and argue this and you lose all credibility in my eyes. So which is the prerequisite to get into heaven, worshiping christ or being a genuinely good person (ie. from the heart)? Pick one awnser, because the combination is very condradictory.
I realize what you might be saying is that you have to have accepted the idea that christ is the lord into your "heart" and not just pout it superficialy, if so, you worded it wrong and caused mucho confusion on my part. If thats the case just say yes, and I'll delete this post.
