Papist Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 [quote name='cappie' timestamp='1295821908' post='2203568'] Who is in hell? Satan and the fallen angels are certainly there—or will be on the last day (cf. CCC 392–93). As for human beings, Scripture implies that some will not be saved (Matt. 7:13–14), but it has not been given to us to know in this life who has not found salvation. Indeed, in union with God who desires the salvation of all men (1 Tim. 2:3–4), the Church prays for all who have died and hopes for the salvation of each person individually (CCC 1821).

Hinter dem Horizont Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 [quote name='MissyP89' timestamp='1295814608' post='2203505'] I don't make a habit of saying anyone is going to hell, because really, the only one that truly knows their heart is God. We can't know. All we can do is hope and pray. [/quote] Exactly. We have no right to say who is or who is not going to hell. God is the only one that can say.

infinitelord1 Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 [quote name='Delivery Boy' timestamp='1296105568' post='2204922'] Are you saying you believe in the rapture ? [/quote] No. I was just saying that A lot of Protestants will always say that Purgatory is some man made place since the word is not used in Scripture. But at the same time, these same people, believe in this thing called "Rapture" and this word is not used in scripture either. So they are contradicting themselves.

infinitelord1 Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 [quote name='Nihil Obstat' timestamp='1296109388' post='2204957'] I saw a bumper sticker that say "Warning: In case of RAPTURE, this car will have no driver." Super tacky, IMO. A better one would start with "In case of RAPTORS"...... [/quote] lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Semper Catholic Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 My Grandma used to say that people who tell others they are going to Hell get to cut straight to the front of the line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Well if what they say is true then there is currently 700 million Protestants and 1.1 Billion Catholics. Considering that the Ratio is so small and that Catholics have a stronger chance of going to Heaven. It may be the other way around. But who knows. I don't want to attach numbers and statistics to who goes to Heaven or not. LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thessalonian Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 As I said above Catholics are held to a higher standard as expressed in Luke 12. "To who much is given much is required" "to the one who does not know he will receive a light beating". From this it is clear that we need to worry about that, not who is going to heaven or hell. This passage could be construed as an equaling of the heaven/hell protestant/Catholic equation. But we know that God gives greater grace to Catholics via the sacraments, by which he sufficiently provides for us to fullfill our calling.

infinitelord1 Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 (edited) You know I have often wondered if it was better to not tell a Protestant that their marriage really isn't valid. Because the minister who married them is separated from the Church. Hence, separated from Jesus Christ and his Sacraments. Furthermore, they were not married by God. So basically every non-Catholic marriage is Fornication if you think about it. But its probably best not to tell anyone...because if they don't know then I think God may have mercy on them and not send them to hell for it. They may just have to settle for Purgatory.
