God Is Evil

When a convivted serial killer can repent before being executed and get into heaven yet a good man can be sent to hell for the monstrous crime of not believing.

How can god seriously care about character?

I don't think you're giving God enough credit here.

Do you think that a last minute plea is enough for God to forgive a sinner?

For one, who's to say that "serial killer" is mentally fit? Recent studies have surfaced about damage to the brain and murderers.

And why would a "good man" go to hell? There is enough scripture according to the Son of God, telling us differently: "I know my followers, and they know me." There are also followers of another flock."

There is nothing that Jesus says that limits us from going to heaven. All we need do is what He said to enter heaven: "Love God, with all your heart, mind and strength. "Love one another, as yourself." [and the new commandment] "Love one another as I have loved you." By acting like Jesus, you are His follower.

Pretty simple? But, maybe not so easy. Jesus also said:

Matt 7:13 “Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. 14 But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.
Quis ut Deus?
