Are you and others on this board forgiving for Eparein, Maxwell, Clinton, etc? That they just need to ask forgiveness amd they will enter and be worthy of heaven? You believe that lying to you friend is the same level of sin as sexually abusing your sister for years? Perhaps theologically there's an argument to be made that all sin is equal, but I really don't believe that's the case.
God extends His forgiveness equally. Are there people that need to be held accountable for crimes...absolutely. But earthly justice and eternal justice are two different things and God is the perfect judge.
"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that WHOSOEVER believeth on Him shall not perish but have eternal life". I think that makes it pretty clear. I know it doesn't seem right that really evil people are judged the same as really good people but since we are all lost (sinners) we can NEVER be righteous on our own accord. I can only claim righteousness through the shed blood of Jesus who paid the penalty for my (and everyone else's) sin. The standard is the righteousness of God and the Bible tells us "there is none righteous, no not one". The love of God is pretty amazing...amazing grace.
