That's interesting. Why would they care if they were saved later or earlier? If it is all the same to God, why is it not the same to them?

*shrug* Because people don't always understand God's point of view.

It's a very understandable (and very human) reaction. If you live a life of self-denial and constant devotion to God, it does seem hard to discover that Joe Smoe from across the street, who has lived in drunkenness and fornication since day one, receives the same reward as you do because he accepted Christ on his death bed.

Or, to put it another way, it doesn't seem fair that the man who killed your brother also receives eternal life because he accepted Christ after he killed him. People often have a hard time letting go of things like that.
