Does the Bible teach clearly who will go to Hell? Are certain behaviors predictors of spending eternity in Hell?

First part: NO.Originally Posted by Perianne
Second part: NO 'behaviours' would lead to hell - the attitudes of our hearts lead to hell.
“… the greatest detractor from high performance is fear: fear that you are not prepared, fear that you are in over your head, fear that you are not worthy, and ultimately, fear of failure. If you can eliminate that fear—not through arrogance or just wishing difficulties away, but through hard work and preparation—you will put yourself in an incredibly powerful position to take on the challenges you face" - Pete Carroll.

The "attitudes of our hearts" lead to Hell if we refuse to repent our sins and stop endulging in sinful behaviors. It's not enough to merely repent. You have to stop sinning, too.

Everybody deserves to go to hell. But Jesus Christ guarantees those who accept him as savior will NOT go to hell. It's only Jesus, not Jesus plus something else. YOU CANNOT EARN YOUR WAY TO HEAVEN.
Romans 3:23King James Version (KJV)
23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;Romans 3:10
As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:
- King James Bible "Authorized Version", Cambridge Edition
1 John 1:9King James Version (KJV)
9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
John 14:6King James Version (KJV)
6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.Ephesians 2:8-9King James Version (KJV)
8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.

Below is a link to a short gospel leaflet that explains it better than I do. The last page (image below) is the most important page.

Having another innocent person suffer for the wrongs you have done, --- so that you might escape responsibility for having done them, --- is immoral.Below is a link to a short gospel leaflet that explains it better than I do. The last page (image below) is the most important page.

Ezekiel 18:20 The soul that sinneth, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him.
Deuteronomy 24:16 (ESV) "Fathers shall not be put to death because of their children, nor shall children be put to death because of their fathers. Each one shall be put to death for his own sin.
Ezekiel 18:20 (ESV) The soul who sins shall die. The son shall not suffer for the iniquity of the father, nor the father suffer for the iniquity of the son. The righteousness of the righteous shall be upon himself, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon himself.
The declaration which says that God visits the sins of the fathers upon the children is contrary to every principle of moral justice. [Thomas Paine, The Age of Reason]
With so much scripture saying your sin is yours to deal with, why would you think you can put your responsibility o Jesus?
Do you deny those scriptures?

The only people who are in HELL are those who put their own beliefs above everyone else.
Those who think that they practice the only faith that promises eternal salvation are the ones in hell. A hell defined by narrow mindedness and zealotry.
Everyone has a fundamental right to believe in anything they want. If you are Christian (Yes...Christian includes Catholics) Jew, Muslim, Pagan, Buddhist, or any other faith you have a right to your beliefs. Anyone that puts theirs above your is the messenger of hate and evil.
we are all equal in the eyes of whatever deity we believe in. and one thing is for certain...
we wont find out if Heaven/Hell exist until we leave this earth...
So to those that proclaim they know the true plan of God and are assured there is a Heaven and a Hell, I have one thing to say.... Show me proof or SHUT YOUR FLIPPING MOUTH!
You know, the last time I was in Germany and saw a man standing above everybody else, we ended up disagreeing.

A simple way to refute Zealots...
God is infallible...
Man is not
Man supposedly wrote the word of God down as The Bible,The Torah and The Koran.
Hence there are flaws in all of the monotheistic texts.
Man can not understand the true nature or word of God... The very premise of his being is that he is without flaw.
Man is flawed... Man can not write the true word of God without mistake. If we could we would all be God. The Bible as written by Man is Flawed...
Show me a copy written by and signed by God himself and I will take that as the true word...
Let me know when you find a copy

What if believers said "Show ME proof God/Heaven/hell doesn't exist or SHUT YOUR FLIPPING MOUTH!?" they'd be rightly scorned.
Nobody has to agree on shit; everybody has the choice how they respond to others.
