Can anyone who believes as Charles Finney did go to Heaven?
I never realized what a heretic Finney truly was and how much he denied the imputed righteousness of Christ to the believer. Can any have true saving faith if they deny imputed righteousness along with the idea of original sin? I know a lot of people feel that Finney was the greatest man
(next to Paul) who ever preached the gospel and my father in-law is one of them. He likes to see himself as another Finney as he preaches at his church trying to get converts to come to the altar.
What hope is there for those like him who will not accept the truth or even wish to listen to it?
 
We are not able to judge anyone's heart. But it is very dangerous to have heart that is set against God's truth. "...they did not receive the love of the truth so as to be saved" (2 Thess. 2:10)

Will a Finneyite go to heaven? Not if he's a good one. Can't tell a poor Finneyite from a good Calvinist sometimes though. Know what I mean? It's hard enough to tell the difference between a good and a bad Calvinist! Lets just worry about making our own calling and election sure. And faithfully witnessing to the truth of biblical religion (aka Calvinism).

Leave the results to God.
