We can choose to do so on our own merits, in that case we are assured of receiving justice.(not recommended) On the other hand, we can turn and receive the perfect righteousness that Jesus offers us by grace, through faith in His substitutionary sacrifice and subsequent resurrection, in which case we can be assured of eternal peace. Seems like a no-brainer to me. Sorry I'm being so thick. This justice that is available for non-believers--what is the range of potential rewards? Does that range include eternal peace or is that reserved for believers? Or is it that the justice available for non-believers doesn't include any rewards at all, only penalties? In which case, what would be the range of penalties? I'm glad to see that you are concerned with justice, but I would be less concerned with the fate of those who haven't heard and concentrate on your own response, since you have heard. Once again, I thank you for your concern about my fate, but my purpose here is not my own fate or that of others but to make a moral assessment of a belief system, which I don't understand well and which, it seems, may be beneath my own moral standards. I appreciate your sharing with me the data with with which I can assess it. Karen
