That's the gist of criticism so far.
Oh. Well I really was not trying to imply anything. It makes no difference to me what you or anyone else thinks will happen to me when I leave this mortal body.

Lu 19:37 And when he was come nigh, even now at the descent of the mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen;
38 Saying, Blessed be the King that cometh in the name of the Lord: peace in heaven, and glory in the highest.
39 And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude said unto him, Master, rebuke thy disciples.
Lu 19:40 And he answered and said unto them, I tell you that, if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out.

The Meek shall Inherit the Earth.

Ps 25:9 The meek will he guide in judgment: and the meek will he teach his way.
I personally have no problem with it, but if they are saved as they say, are they learning to live accordingly?
People can claim they are saved and they very well may be, but that is only the start of a life with God.
Not only are we to be saved but to come to the knowledge of the truth.
