Is Hitler In Heaven?, or could he be resurrected to eternal life with out Lord and savior Jesus Christ and the Father? Many people seem to be of the opinion that Hitler was a Christian. This got me thinking well in that case maybe he repented his sins before he died (yes I know he supposedly committed suicide ) There are rumors he didn't actually take his own life.
OK, at this point I have to say that I'm being factitious. My real point is that people don't really know what being a Christian means. Everyone know what the qualifications are for being an atheist, a Jew, a Muslim, but what are the qualification for being a Christian? Is it simply saying you're a Christian or are their some minimum standards that must be meet?
I will give you my standard and perhaps some other would like to share theirs.
It is not what a man does but what he doesn't do that qualifies him as a Christian and it's not what a man says with his mouth but rather what he believes in his heart.
A Christian is one who worships God and follows (lives by) the teachings of his only begotten son Jesus Christ. A Christian can is not perfect and may fall short though he has been given all the tools he needs to live free from sin. A Christian can commit sin but a Christian cannot be committed to sin. A Christian is a person who loves God above all, a Christian is a person who loves his neighbor as himself.
By this definition Hitler was not a Christian and neither were many others who have committed atrocities and claimed the tittle Christian throughout the years.
