Are Jews going to Hell if they do not accept Jesus as Savior and Lord?

Everyone who doesn't accept Jesus as their savior is.

But in reality, no one goes to hell or heaven.

Hmmm.

35 have looked at the poll, and only 5 have bothered to vote.

I think I can put that down as "86%--I don't care."

Interesting results, so far.

If it is in the Theology, Doctrine, and Dogma forum the question should not be "Are Jews going to Hell if they do not accept Jesus?" but "Does the Bible teach that Jews going to Hell if they do not accept Jesus? or Does Christianity teach that Jews going to Hell if they do not accept Jesus?"

Point taken, and I apologize. The questions really seem equivalent in practice to me, though.

Where should it go? I'll post it again elsewhere.

The issue to me seems to be; are Jews locked into The Old Covenant if they MISS Messiah ??

There are many non-christians here. Most of us do not believe that there is a hell and that there is a significant difference between "Does the Bible teach X" and "Is X true".

If you want to discuss "Does the Bible teach ..." then we can reword the OP a bit and leave it in this forum. If you want to discuss whether Jews really go to hell if they do not accept Jesus, then we can move the debate to "Christianity and Apologetics" or "Non-Christian Religions and Philosophies".

I'd say move it. I'm interested in the non-Christians' opinions too.

Thanks.

That wouldn't be me, but Moses and Elijah were on the Mt. of Transfiguration with Jesus, weren't they?

I would assume that Moses and Elijah would get a pass even from antisemites, let alone ordinary goodhearted Christians.

Not to put too fine a point on it, but what about me?
