whether Christian or Muslim. whether salvation by faith or works, the question comes up. One personality is Christian, one is Muslim, one has faith in Jesus, one is atheist, one does very good things to people and one does very bad things. If all these personalities exist in one body, how does a god decide whether to send them to heaven or hell?
I don't know.
I generally try to refrain from making such declarations (as to whether someone is saved or not), and think this applies even more so, in such a specialized case. I don't think that I have the ability or the position to make that call. I believe that this follows; from what the Bible teaches about salvation, which I believe is by faith alone, through Christ alone. The best I can do, is explain what faith is, and what it looks like, according to the scripture. It's not a matter of weighing certain aspects against each other.
Concerning multiple personality disorders, I do not (and I don't think anyone really does) understand the nature or cause of the condition.
