1 | Born into the Kingdom of God? | Luke 16:18 | TheCurtMan | 92536 | ||
Ken, Sorry about 'the old man being done away with' bit, a bad choice of words to get my point across. To be honest with you my brother, you're over my head like a 747 bound for the Promise Land. I'm still back a square one wondering if Jesus had a secondary primary reason for caming to earth other than to save people. I've listened to what you've said, and for the most part, everything you've elaborated on takes place as a result of salvation, it takes place after the person is saved. I've searched this thing out for years and am now able to see the conclusion to the matter. i.e., Once we are born again... The perfect example, the conclusion to the matter takes place after salvation. Thus far you're leaving me to draw the conclusion that there is secondary primary reason why Jesus came to earth other to save people, and this reason takes place after salvation. So inorder to find out what this reason is we must first become saved, which is why Jesus came here in the first place. Ken, I really need you to tell me I'm wrong on this thing. The CurtMan |

2 | Born into the Kingdom of God? | Luke 16:18 | Ken hepting | 92641 | ||
Before Jesus was born the world was filled with people residing in many places. They were a mixture of the wicked and the righteous, as best they could be who showed they were by they're good deeds, who all died. Even during His lifetime and afterwards, this was and is the case even today. My question for you is: Does the salvation Jesus provides extend to any of them? | ||||||
3 | Born into the Kingdom of God? | Luke 16:18 | TheCurtMan | 92727 | ||
I believe that the salvation that was provided by Jesus is made available to EVERYONE. Past, Present, Future, Believer, Non-believer. I believe that salvation is conditional, it will be excepted by some and rejected by others. But salvation is made available to everyone. | ||||||

Very true, indeed. Now what should happen AFTER one, living in the age of the Holy Spirit made available, believes for his salvation? In oher words, what must one do to be a follower of Christ to become a son in His likeness? Should 'being saved', in your estimation, mean more than 'being redeemed'? What's the diiference that should be recognized? Hint: Luke 17:17 (NASB) And Jesus answered and said, "Were there not ten cleansed? But the nine-- where are they? |

5 | Born into the Kingdom of God? | Luke 16:18 | TheCurtMan | 92949 | ||
Do you think that maybe you could explain simply and clearly the difference between being saved, and being redeemed?? And explain it to me as if I was a seven yr. old. I looked at Luke 17:17. What I see is ten men who was cleansed of a physical affliction. Out of that ten, one was cleansed spiritually. The other nine probably had places to go; people to see; and things to do. Glorifing God just was not on their agenda at that time. |
