and saw charles manson there? Yes i understand he killed a lot of people and tells everyone that he has nothing to feel ashamed about. but he is not psychologically insane just severely angry but shows it in a passive aggressive manner. if someone truly felt sorry for a murder they committed, i dont think they would need a jury to tell him he needs to repent, he would need to find it within himself, dont you think?

Interesting question...Yes I would be surprised to see him there, but I would assume that God knew what He was doing when he let him in there, and I would assume that Charlie Manson must have repented. Personally i think he is psychologically insane though. You would have to be to carve a nazi symbol in your forehead.

There has been many people that have done horrible things and then gave their life to Jesus. God says that their sin is no worse than ours. Sin is not on a scale, lying is no different than murder in Gods eyes. I also believe that he doesn't need a jury to tell him that he needs to repent. I can't wait to get to heaven to see who is there!

If I woke up after dying and saw Charles Manson,I would know that I must have missed heaven and went to Hell instead...

Suprised? Yes. Shocked? Probably not. Nothing I have ever heard or read on Charles Manson tells me that he was Christian who would repent after his murders. But on the other hand, I know the grace of God is strong enough to save him from an eternity in Hell if he truly repented and accepted Christ as his savior. But yes, I would be surprised to see him.

I know people have their own opinions, that's why God gave us, 'free will'...
But I do agree with, TeresaK...It doesn't matter what you have done in your life, whether it be kill many people or just take a candy bar from the store, in God's eyes, sin is sin...He doesn't differentiate.
I know it may sound strange and you'd think that He would feel differently but He doesn't...Anyone asking forgive of their sins, with a pure heart and accepting Him as their personal Saviour will be forgiven and be with Him and the Father in heaven.
