No. You're a righteous person. I believe that you will be saved, provided that you want to be saved.

Well if all that's stuff is true and I'm given the option I certainly think I'll go with the saved option. But your belief seems to be completely counter to what virtually every other Christian says.Â
Righteous? You said I'm a Richard. Can you be a righteous Richard?

I don't believe that Jesus abandons his flock and I have not seen irrefutable gospel evidence that he does. Most Christians believe that we must accept Jesus in this lifetime in order to be saved or else be damned to Hell for eternity. I simply don't believe that Jesus does that.

I should clarify. I do not believe that Jesus abandons RIGHTEOUS people. Unrighteousness people, unless they repent, will indeed be destroyed and rightly so.

So, the core question then is what makes a man righteous.
No longer GroupThink 'woke'. but it was fun while it lasted.

Back that up in scripture. I'd like to see it.

This is in line with what the OT teaches, which is that all the non-believers will be destroyed by God; not tortured for eternity.

I'm not convinced that a righteous, unbelieving person is abandoned by Jesus.

What exactly do they do to you in Hell that makes it so bad?
Is it just really hot and humid? Or is their some demented little demon that follows you around everywhere that you go, constantly poking you in the ass with a pitchfork?
Are there cells, like a prison? Or are the inmates free range? If the latter, how do they prevent you from hooking up with a bunch of Vegas strippers? Are you made impotent as part of the punishment?
&
Are you allowed to listen to Rock Music? Or do they force you to listen to Rap infused R&B the entire time?
