    The answer depends on how much sin you think the sacrifice of Christ can cover and how much faith you think can move mountains.

      Jared, you raise a good point here. I remember a minister once referring to such people and asking if we REALLY wanted to get in just by the skin of our teeth. It seems to me that individual did not really grasp the fact that ALL of us “get in” by the skin of our teeth and perhaps not even that much. In fact, WE don’t get in at all … someone ELSE snatches in through the door at the last nanosecond.

      Hello :-)

      This is what I think. The blood of Jesus Christ covers all sin. I think the best example we can find in the bible is the example of the criminal who hang next to the Lord, asking Him to remember him when the Lord would be in the Kingdom. Jesus’ answer was, according to Luke 23:43, that the sinner would be in the paradise together with the Lord! That makes me really happy!!!!! :-)
