1 | Will Jews make it to heaven? | Rom 9:1 | rclouviere | 224993 | ||
Will Jews (who haven't accepted Christ) make it to heaven? If not, most of God's chosen" will not be there... | ||||||
2 | Will Jews make it to heaven? | Rom 9:1 | Inquisitor | 225005 | ||
I would have to agree with Beja and Searcher. The most powerful scripture of which I can think is from Jesus Himself in... Jn 14:5 Thomas said to Him, “Lord, we do not know where You are going, and how can we know the way?” 6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. Jesus' Words are pretty clear. In this Dispensation, we must obey His Commands and those of His Officially Commissioned Apostles. God bless, Inquisitor |

3 | Will Jews make it to heaven? | Rom 9:1 | Beja | 225006 | ||
Inquisitor, I've not actually said anything in this thread to be agreed with. I simply suggested a study of Romans 9 and I made no attempt to answer the question. However, something you said concerns me. You said: "Jesus' Words are pretty clear. In this Dispensation, we must obey His Commands and those of His Officially Commissioned Apostles." Following the verse you quoted it makes it sound like you believe the means of salvation is our obedience to Christ's commands. I hope that isn't what you are saying. If it is please know that I whole heartedly disagree. But perhaps I've missunderstood you. In Christ, Beja |

Beja, I can only respond with more words from Jesus... Jn 14:15 “If you love Me, keep My commandments. 16 And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever— 17 the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, for He dwells with you and will be in you. 18 I will not leave you orphans; I will come to you. 19 “A little while longer and the world will see Me no more, but you will see Me. Because I live, you will live also. 20 At that day you will know that I am in My Father, and you in Me, and I in you. 21 He who has My commandments and keeps them, it is he who loves Me. And he who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and manifest Myself to him.” 22 Judas (not Iscariot) said to Him, “Lord, how is it that You will manifest Yourself to us, and not to the world?” 23 Jesus answered and said to him, “If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him. 24 He who does not love Me does not keep My words; and the word which you hear is not Mine but the Father’s who sent Me. Just trying to make sense out of the whole NT. How do you interpret Jesus' Words above? God bless, Inquisitor. |

Inquisitor, You've asked and answered this point before and I still strongly disagree! You are once again on this merry-go-round of saved-by-faith, kept-by-works mind set. What you proposing is a dichotomy! You are obviously missing in your understanding of the doctrine of salvation by grace through faith. BradK |

But Brad, You didn't respond to Jesus' Words from the scriptures as quoted in my post. Please give me your interpretation. I await your response. God bless, Inquisitor |

Hello Inquisitor, Do these verses from John really warrant a response? What must I interpret? Is this really necessary? The response to Jesus words are not the determining factor of our salvation!! Period! Here is the question: Is salvation by grace through faith? Or, is salvation based upon my response and/or keeping of certain commands? Salvation by grace through faith is an essential, therefore non-negotiable doctrine of scripture! It is imperative that we correctly understand it and it's implications and that we also correctly portray the message of Scripture. Can I be frank with you? I find it short of amazing that in your some 4 months on this Forum, you've contested the doctrines of: Salvation by Grace and Original Sin. You've disagreed with myself and by far most- if not all- of us whom you've come across. Don't you find this a bit odd? I do. Can you honestly tell me you have such a thorough understanding and grasp of scripture and it's doctrines that you're above further learning? That is how it appears from my perspective. Prov 19:20 "Listen to counsel and accept discipline, That you may be wise the rest of your days." (NASB) Speaking The Truth In Love, BradK |
