1 | An interesting discussion/question | Romans | budderfligh | 205035 | ||
Hi jamison, I was referring back to the original question as stated: "I have recently discussed with someone, the merits and demerits, of predestination. During the discussion, he asked me a question about those who have never heard the Gospel. I remember that during my personal study, I read about Gods will and plan for those people (who i suppose could also include young children and those unborn). Could anyone please help me locate this passage? I want to thank all of you who are so willing to offer help, advice, knowledge, and directions when asked. God bless you all." The focus of the whosoever part would of course address the portion of the question dealing with the original question. God bless, budderfligh |

2 | An interesting discussion/question | Romans | DocTrinsograce | 205061 | ||
"One question frequently stops Christians in their tracks: 'If the Gospel alone saves, then what about the heathen in Africa who never heard?' Can God justly convict a man who hasn't heard about Jesus? Some people hear the Gospel and reject it, but most never hear it. How can God condemn them? Christians are ill-equipped to respond because they don't really understand something vital about sin and mercy. Sin brings guilt. Mercy is a gift. Anyone who is a sinner receives punishment he deserves. Anyone who is saved receives mercy he does not deserve and which is not owed him. Think of this question: How could the sheriff send anyone to jail if he didn't offer him a pardon first? The answer is simple. If he's guilty, the sheriff is justified in throwing him in jail. There is no obligation to offer a pardon to a guilty man. The same is true of God. He can justly convict a man who has broken His law even though the sinner has heard nothing about God's pardon in Jesus. God owes no one salvation. He can offer it to whomever He wishes. That's why it's called grace." --Gregory Koukl | ||||||
3 | An interesting discussion/question | Romans | ChildofGod1988 | 205101 | ||
How ever, God said that he sent his son Jesus for the WORLD.(john 3:16) He also says it is his will that all should come to him.( John 6:35-40) It sounds to me like God wants no one to spend eternity away from Him. When someone askes me "If the Gospel alone saves, then what about the heathen in Africa who never heard?," I respond first with, God is merciful, and He has a plan for them. And next with, What does it matter? You have heard the Gospel and now are presented with a choice... What will/have you choose/chosen?. God bless you , CoG1988 |
