    What we do bro defines who we are. When we commit sins, we become sinners. See? Our sins define us as sinners.

    Our identity still remain -- we're still beings endowed with reason, self-awareness, creativity, conscience -- but we also become the persons we choose to become, we become the products of our decisions.

    There is no such thing as good or bad in Spirituality. There is only what works and what doesn't work. I will give you an example. For you as Catholic you consider SUICIDE as bad and mortal sin but for others it is not. When you go to Japan, Suicide for most of these people are considered honorable for them and to their religion! See? That is relative!
    Didn't you acknowledge that objective moral values exist?

    There are accounts of NDEs where people actually claimed that they went to hell. For example, the story of Howard Storm. He was an art professor in the States and during a tour in France with his wife and students he suddenly had an attack of an acute disease. He was hospitalized and then he experienced "seeing his own body" in the hospital bed beside his wife. He was confused because he didn't believe in an afterlife (He was an atheist). Then he heard voices calling out to him and he followed them until he came to an utterly dark "place" where he was savagely attacked by people whom he didn't know. This mob bit at him, made all sorts of insults and threats against him, and attempted to tear him into pieces.

    He of course survived and is now a pastor.

    Hitler went to heaven - Conversations With God book 1
    Jesus has conquered the power of sin with his death and resurrection, so all we need to do is to repent of our sins and obey his commandments.

    Sin can never separate us from God, but only in so far as we ourselves choose not to be separated from him by choosing him over sin.

    Do you think Hitler was not a sinner? Do you think that he won't be made accountable for his crimes? God is love, but he is also just.

    There is a world of difference between us and Jesus, and it is simply because he is God and we are not. He is the creator and we are his creatures. But we do have a calling to be holy and divine, we do have a calling to be saints.

    yeah! gerat replies @josephdc...

    Jesus The Christ was much ahead of us in terms of consciousness
    much ahead? he is our God...and we are just His creatures...as said by josephdc...

    if we said "much ahead of us"..its much like being the serpent who tempted Eve...

    No I beg to disagree. We are not our works and actions. Our REAL IDENTITY is always separate from our ACTIONS. If I kill someone, it doesn't mean I become a killer or a criminal for life. It is only the effect of my actions but not my real identity. I am not a criminal for life or I am not a criminal when I was born or before and after I committed the action. My REAL IDENTITY IS ME ever before I was born and will ever die. Our real NATURE is this regardless of our actions good or bad: WE ARE SPIRITUAL BEINGS HAVING A HUMAN EXPERIENCE!

    Yes but ABSOLUTE MORAL VALUES such as GOOD or BAD do not exist! There is no such thing as ABSOULTE GOOD or BAD in this world. Everything is relative in our world!

    Well, it was only temprorary that he experienced hell because if he went to hell as eternal then he would never have returned in the first place, right? That is common sense my friend!
