1 | Always Saved?? | Heb 6:6 | John Reformed | 78422 | ||
Dear New Creature, You stated: "On the day of judgement will God Judge those whose hearts were hardened, because of their inability to have been given a heart able to respond in faith." God will judge all those who are not "in Christ" based upon their sins. Salvation is not a right. It is a function of mercy twords those guilty ones whom God has chosen to redeem through Jesus. The rest are passed by and suffer the penalty for their sins. If you believe that this is unjust, consider what Paul said in Rom 9:20-22 "...who are you, O man, who answers back to God? The thing molded will not say to the molder, "Why did you make me like this," will it? Or does not the potter have a right over the clay, to make from the same lump one vessel for honorable use and another for common use? What if God, although willing to demonstrate His wrath and to make His power known, endured with much patience vessels of wrath prepared for destruction?" God Bless, John Reformed |

2 | Always Saved?? | Heb 6:6 | Morant61 | 78470 | ||
Greetings John! I like your quote of Rom. 9:20-22. If I may, I would just like to add one note of interest (at least it is to me)! The complaint of the hypothetical objector in Rom. 9:20-22 was not that God did not have mercy on those who deserved it, but rather that God had mercy on those who didn't. Of course, we approach this passage from different perspectives, but I have always viewed this verse, not as a justification for God to condemn, but as a justification for God to show mercy. :-) Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
