  The guy who was crucified with Jesus.........he did not even know Jesus as Son of God.........yet he was saved
  
  All he did was to say to a poor innocent guy next to him whom he perceives to be someone special......please remember me......(Matt 23:42)
  
  Conclusion: salvation here does not depend on one's knowledge of doctrine, but on whether he wants Jesus .............
  
  Are there non-christians who wants Jesus? I am sure there are many......They will be with Jesus.........Cannot Meh?

  You seem to be saying that if I accept Jesus as a wise teacher but not as a Saviour I can still be saved.

  One load of bull.
  
  The guy knew Jesus was the Messiah, the King of the Jews.

  Many people knows Jesus as Son of God, Saviour and Lord, but few spend time with Him...............when they do, it's always to ask for something.
  
  Shouldn't we spend time with Jesus and ask for NOTHING except to enjoy His Presence with us?
  
  Why must prayer always end up as Petitions.........and not Adorations?
  
  Can we just pray, "Lord, we seek nothing, only to worship Jesus, and to thank You for the gift of Your Son".................cannot meh?
