What if everyone goes to heaven?

Culture says God is love and tolerance. He loves you just as you are. Your perfect just as you are. He’ll help you clean up the “messiness in your life.” No mention of sinfulness. Just come to Jesus. He will give you a good life. To say otherwise is legalistic.
If there is no punishment for sin, there is no justice. If everyone went to heaven, regardless of their earthly decisions, there is no fairness. We all just might live however we want. But that’s a dangerous lie.
God is holy and just. This is the reason why there must be punishment for sin. His image has been watered down so that, God is often thought of as a Santa Claus or a benevolent Grandfather with a flowing beard and a staff.
The thought of an eternal hell should be a deterrent to sinning. But in the name of tolerance and love, hell is hardly a thought any more. Christians sin and use excuses like, God knows. God understands. God knows my heart! There’s grace and mercy, but there must be repentance. Yes, we are under grace, but grace empowers us to say no to sin, not sin and then ask for forgiveness. This should not be! Christians who live unholy lifestyles should be called out in love because they are not pleasing to God.
People who are against sinning are often called intolerant or legalistic. Don’t let anyone bully you. Sin is sin.

1 Corinthians 15:19 If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.
