It seems that in Bro. Blume's summation above, the bottom line is - We don't know.
But how can we NOT KNOW about something so important?? We are placed here on this earth, given a puzzle, and if we figure it out correctly we're in? Figure it out incorrectly and we're doomed forever? How can God have been so vague about something so important?

I think you mistakenly assumed I was a three-stepper because I said "we cannot condemn." I said "we" just to say Christians who believe such.
I however believe we are justified by faith and we have peace with God through faith in Jesus Christ. For me, that is whole point of the gospel. Faith in the shed blood of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins.
Acts 10:43 To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins.
