Without Christ there is no hope. It’s a biblical truth that cannot be twisted with any emotional appeal. If she had sinned, then there are consequences for it.
-
Who knows if she did not hear and accept the Gospel before she died.
-
God looks at the heart ,we do not know what happen in the last minutes of life ONLY GOD KNOWS
-
She died in her sins and without Christ is condemned before God.
-
We don’t determine who is saved and who isn’t. That’s God’s job. I’m glad I don’t have this responsibility.
-
Who knows? For all we know she accepted Christ after finishing her diary. ?♀️
-
Not one person on earth can tell you what God’s judgement was for Anne Frank or anyone else. That is God’s judgement alone.
What we do have is His word. The Bible is clear there is no other name that saves but Jesus. Belief Jesus is Lord, he was resurrected according to scripture is the only way we are told to be saved. Anything else you are taking a big gamble, especially with a God who doesn’t lie. There is no exception God has told us about when it comes to tragic stories, or exceptions about age or anything else.

Only God knows the heart. I think heaven will have people we don’t expect to see and the absence of people we do expect to see
-
God knows…
-
God’s justice and grace will be sufficient for her, we can’t predict the mind of God always.He will show mercy to whoever He wants and Justice according to His Holiness.
-
It’s God’s decision not man
-
God loves her too much to force her into a relationship with him in the next life, so if she didn’t want it or have it in this one God will honor her decision.
-
HELL is a false doctrine from the Catholic church.
-
All I can say is one thing.. And one thing only.. The judge of all the earth is righteous in every way. He will do what is perfect to her and to every soul who’s never heard about the gospel. That’s God’s domain and we should leave that for him. However, we are responsible to share the gospel to everyone. The good news
-
We all would be much better off spending our time in the Word of God and seeking a closer relationship with Jesus ourselves instead of wondering about another persons beliefs regarding our Lord and savior.
-
We better worry about our soul
-
This question can be asked about ANY person we as humans think is a morally good person. But the same question remains for someone who stands on rooftop with a microphone and proclaims Christ as their savior.
Only God knows their heart and His judgement is His alone to make. It’s beyond our scope of knowledge and none of our bidness. Yes I said bidness. -
No , i am jewish. The scriture teaches no man is good but God alone. Not mother Teresa, not Anne Frank. All have simned and come short of the glory of God. His standard is the comandmendts. Perfection! Thats why we need the gospel of Jesus Christ. It just shows us the gravity of our condition and the need for all men to recieve the gospel. And our need to be missionaries.
-
That’s in G-d’s hands. Speculation is just trying to cause issues.
-
The circumstances of life does not justify entry into heaven. Whether those circumstances are in a concentration camp or living in luxury, circumstances mean nothing as far as eternity is concerned. Where one spends eternity is dependent on their relationship with God through Jesus Christ. Did they accept the free gift of salvation that comes only from faith in Christ?
-
Leave that to God. This is just pointless speculating.
-
Heaven is not a reward for those who die painfully, it is a gift to those who trust in Jesus. The Bible does not bend to your feelings.
-
We can be assured of one thing…God is absolutely good. And therefore, His dealings with Anne were just and good.
-
It doesn’t matter if she was Jewish the question needing to be answered is did she know and believe in Jesus Christ?
-
Only God knows
-
It’s surprising how many christians would easily abandon fundamental truths about Christianity when emotionally manipulated. Jesus said in John 14:6, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”
Is that not true anymore?
-
Only God knows
-
We don’t know if she was saved it not so we can’t answer the question. Ask God
-
Paul agonised over the question of God’s covenant people, look at Romans 9 (verse 15 especially pertinent ?). The Spirit convicts, God judges, we are only called to love… Try to remember that before usurping God’s right to have mercy ?❤️
-
Depends on what she did with Jesus in her life
-
The difference is Abraham believed in the Messiah to come. Other Jewish believe in Abraham’s promises.
-
No one is saved because of their race. Everyone is judged by their actions. And because of that no man will be saved without Christ.
-
Nobody can answer that question honestly. Romans is not saying every last one of them will be saved. He also said all Israel is not of Israel because it is a matter of the heart! So, to ask questions of this nature is best to leave it in the hands of the One who know the heart! It is not ours to always says was this one saved, or this one, or this one when only God knows who is truly redeemed! Otherwise it is just speculation on our part. Have you not heard that we might be surprised who is in heaven and who is missing when we get there ourselves. That is because we never know you lived a lie their whole life and trusted their own works to save them!
-
We can’t know the answer. Only God does.

?“Indeed, when Gentiles (or other unsaved people), who do not have the law, do by nature things required by the law, they are a law for themselves, even though they do not have the law. They show that the requirements of the law are written on their ? , their consciences also bearing witness, & their thoughts sometimes accusing them & at other times even defending them.) This will take place on the day when God judges people’s secrets through Jesus Christ, as my gospel declares.” Romans 2:14-16
(Good questions on this site…God will sort things out in the afterlife…nothing should prevent us from witnessing to everyone we meet)
-
Ask to God. Only God knows.

There are some portions that indicate that since God called Israel out and separated them to live His law before the nations in this physical world, they are preserved (and/or revived) to do that. Isaiah 42:6; 49:6; 52:10;
They recognize Jesus at His second coming and He sets up His kingdom.
Zechariah 12:10
“And I will pour out on the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem a spirit of grace and pleas for mercy, so that, when they look on me, on him whom they have pierced, they shall mourn for him, as one mourns for an only child, and weep bitterly over him, as one weeps over a firstborn.God clearly states that He is the one who veiled them and blinded their eyes, He will forgive their transgressions for his namesake. Isaiah 44:18; 2 Corinthians 3:14
Isaiah 43:25
“I, I am he who blots out your transgressions for my own sake, and I will not remember your sins.He clearly states in Ezekiel 37 that the whole house of Israel will be revived from dry bones.
Ezekiel 37
11 Then he said unto me, Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel: behold, they say, Our bones are dried, and our hope is lost: we are cut off for our parts.12 Therefore prophesy and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, O my people, I will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your graves, and bring you into the land of Israel.
13 And ye shall know that I am the Lord, when I have opened your graves, O my people, and brought you up out of your graves,
Paul clearly states in Romans 11:28
As regards the gospel, they are enemies for your sake. But as regards election, they are beloved for the sake of their forefathers.He says all Israel will be saved.
There will be a final rebellion at the end of the milleniel reign of Christ when they will be able to choose whether to follow Christ or reject Him, after they have fulfilled their calling before the nations.
I think they may be resting in Abraham’s Bosom until their bones are revived.
-
why would you ask that ? do you know if she believe the gospel of Christ Crucified and resurrection? probably not and this happened many years ago .
-
We don’t have the authority to Judge! Only God can?
-
Will knowing matter?
“Go therefore and make disciples…” is our long standing order. To dwell on her salvation or absence of it is an impossible task that I cannot reverse by attempting to know with all my time and days on earth.
However, we who are still living are also dying and will be no more. Let’s store our treasures in heaven then while time is on our side.
Grace to you! -
God judges with mercy for those who show mercy. That is why we are to love others. I trust in the mercy of Christ and I try to show mercy everywhere I can. Amen?
-
If she did not accept Jesus as her Savior then she is not saved.
Works do not get you into Heaven! -
At what stage are sinners sent to “HELL” ?
The Bible teaches that there will be a ressurection from all places including the sea and the grave then white throne Judgement then sentence. Where does this notion of straight to “HELL FIRE” come from?. Even before Satan himself is senteced , sinners are already burning !.
Something is grossly wrong with this HELL doctrine. -
Most people understand that doing evil can keep us out of heaven. But few realize the Scripture also teaches that doing good cannot get us in. None of us could ever gain enough merit to deserve heaven. We all are sinful, and God’s standard is utter perfection. With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible. In other words, being saved so that we can go to heaven is not something we can accomplish. It is something God must do for us.
-
Why worry about another persons soul when we are to proclaim the Gospel of Jesus to the living souls. You will find out when you take your last breath if you are still interested.
-
She’s not in hell or heaven, because both doesn’t exist.
-
I won’t be surprised to see her in Heaven. Many Christians will automatically condemn her to Hell.
-
If she was not born again then she is in hell unless she was of a mind set that she was unable to be held accountable.
-
What did she believe? Only God would know.
-
Her soul is none of our concern, what about you? Your neighbor? Family, friends that are still alive?
