On occasion, when I am meeting with the family of someone who died, they ask the unanswerable: "are they are in heaven?" The problem with the question is - I'm not God. I do not know the secret things or their last thoughts or if they just pretended to believe or if they were the "very model of a modern major believer." God has not let me look at the names in the Book of Life. All I have is what I saw in their life, what the family shared with me and the promises of Jesus. And so as I always do, I say, "I commend them into the hands of a loving and just God."
I cannot be certain of any other way to heaven than Jesus. Jesus never said, "I am one of the ways or a way." And this is where the dilemma and challenge gets very personal. It is not that those who are far away and who I will never meet on this earth aren't important. They are - to God and therefore to me. But when someone I love - or someone I respect - is following a different path and I cannot be certain it leads to heaven - I cannot just say, "oh well, good luck with that." If I truly love them - I will do my best to share the love of Jesus because love demands nothing less.
