The real inhabitants of Hell are those who reject God [I Am Enjoying Being A Muslim]

... they will remain in it forever, and shall never live in it or die.

However, there shall be another group of people who believed in God, the fire of Hell will touch them because of their sins, and they shall die a type of death until they become burnt up, then they will be interceded for, so they will come in groups and they will be thrown into The River Of Life, they will be refreshed, then it will be said, 'O people of Paradise, go ahead and enter it', so they will enter it.

Hell will never touch those who [u]repent[/u] from their sins.

@DestroyerOfIdeologies I wouldn't know about those others you speak of, that's their business, and I don't care to assume what they know or don't know, or criticize them.

As I mentioned, no one has to miss heaven. Whatever choice we make, is the one God will honor. Some have the distorted idea that whether we go to hell or heaven, depends on if we "follow God's rules" or that He's somehow anxious to throw us in hell the first minute we sin. Nothing could be further than the truth, but if they insist on staying uninformed on what God says about that in His Word, that speaks volumes that they're not really interested in finding God or having their sins forgiven, anyway. They just enjoy arguing about it. There's not one excuse why anyone has to miss heaven. I hope with everything in me, you'll not miss heaven. I hope no one does.

I never said being a Christian made anyone smarter or wiser. I've always mentioned in my posts that I'm no smarter or wiser than anyone else. Nor above anyone else.

You were talking about Christians keeping their head in their bible and are not aware of current events, but that works both ways. There's things that go beyond, and are even more important than current events, when it comes to the afterlife, that many would be wise to learn about, because eternity is a lot longer than this world, so I wouldn't be quick to talk about believers being uninformed. One thing you'd know, if you were to read the bible, is just the opposite of what you assumed the bible says about the consumption of alcohol or wine:

The Bible acknowledges the medicinal value of wine.— 1 Timothy 5:23. They drank wine back in Jesus's day, as well, even Jesus and His disciples, as the water was so bad back then. It is not a sin to drink alcohol in [u]moderation[/u]. An enjoyable gift is good only when used [b]properly[/b]. For example, honey “is good,” but “the eating of too much honey is not good.” (Proverbs 24:13; 25:27) While drinking “a little wine” may be agreeable, but the abuse of alcohol is a serious.. ( Psalm 104 :14, 15; Ecclesiastes 3:13; 9:7) Like when that girl killed my husband, when she got drunk. So being informed before we decide to judge, is real important.
