Who do you want to see in heaven?
 
Who do you want to see in heaven? Besides Jesus. Duh!

Saddam Hussein?
Adolf Hitler? (Hey, you have to hope they got saved at the end, don't you?)
Adam? (Check for a belly button, if you get a chance.)
Eve? (Offer her an apple. She never gets tired of that.)
Samson? (If for no other reason than to say "What were you thinking?!")
Other? (write-ins welcome!)

You can select multiples. ;)

Related question: What if you happen to spot Hitler or Hussein? What would you say? Would you shun them? Befriend them? Complain to the management? :)

Since heaven we will be perfected, there will be no hatred, envy, strife, doubt, shunning and I don't even think there will be silly questions. :winkgrin

So, if they're there we won't know, remember or have any knowledge of their sins or anyone's sins.

Those sins, those evil deeds, would have been forgiven and never to be remembered against them anymore.
Anyway, that's how I see it.

At least six have voted, but Adolf and Saddam each got only one vote, so far. Come on, people, where's that burden for the lost? Did Jesus die for their sins or not?

To be in heaven means one changed one's life and got right with God. So to want to see Hitler in heaven is to want to see that he changed and got right with God. We want everyone to do that. So we want to see everyone in heaven. :) With that disclaimer in mind, YES!!

Yay! Another vote for Saddam and Adolf!

Maybe I should ask it another way. Let's face it: it's pretty unlikely that either of those guys made a death-bed conversion. Not a successful one, at least! So, does it make you sad that they both died in their sin (most likely)? If you had had the chance, would you have tried to present the gospel to them before it was too late? It's never too late, is it? Er, until it is too late, that is. Uh. You know what I mean! :)

Saddam, yes. Hitler, I probably would have just shot him. That's not what I should have done but I still probably would have done it. Not a very spiritual answer, but an honest one. :thumbsup

Those two guys, and many others of a similar ilk, represent something horrible and evil that must be (and I believe will eventually be) removed from our universe. The precise "how" and the mechanisms involved are in God's hands. Whether this "removal" involves some sort of "reconciliation" for the named souls or not, I have no idea.

My only hope is for peace and justice. My faith for accomplishing these ends is in God Almighty.

Just found this quote, and thought it was apropos. :)
Can the believing husband in Heaven be happy with his unbelieving wife in Hell? Can the believing father in Heaven be happy with his unbelieving children in Hell? Can the loving wife in Heaven be happy with her unbelieving husband in Hell? I tell you, yea! Such will be their sense of justice that it will increase rather than diminish their bliss. -- Jonathan Edwards

It's interesting that the "yes"s for Adolf are qualified by "it means they had to ____________."

The unconditional grace of God, is truly understood, would blow our ever-living minds.

What in the world is that supposed to mean? Hitler would not have had to see a life change by the power of God where he would have ceased to murder people in order to be in heaven? lol
