"For although they knew God, they neither glorified Him as God nor gave thanks to Him, but became vain in their imaginations and their foolish hearts were darkened. Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools ...Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. They exchanged the truth about God for a lie ...Furthermore, just as they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, so God gave them over to a depraved mind, so that they do what ought not to be done."
And Isaiah 5:20-21, states, "Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil ...Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes ..."

The question should not be: Can anyone go to heaven without accepting Jesus?
Rather the question should be: Are we willing to accept that few will?
Botanists claim the tomato is a fruit. Horticulturalists claim it is a vegetable. In the late 1800's, the Supreme Court ruled with the horticulturalists ...because back then fruit was not taxed, and the government wanted to tax the tomato. The Supreme Court is about to rule on the issue of marriage ...but I think it should not be decided upon by a court that does not view God as Supreme. And how can they busy themselves discussing marriage, when there is a critical issue with a union between two people resulting in a child ...where post-birth abortion is being considered on option. How can the horror of that be ignored?
I think it's fruitless to oppose God's standard, but a fruit was also the debate in the Garden of Eden. A similar debate continues ...but we must not lose the knowledge of good and evil. Though it was better not to have in the Garden of Eden, and perhaps will be absent in heaven, yet it may be our saving grace on earth to have the knowledge of good ...in Jesus.
So, what other purpose do we have? To tell others about Jesus.
