Nehemiah, There is no such biblical doctrine as people becoming of age in order to be saved. All of us are conceived in the image of Adam and from birth we are sinners and in need of the mercy of God for salvation if we are to receive eternal life. Sam Hughey |

Jim, Thanks for asking with such a kind spirit. The truth of the matter is that age has absolutely nothing at all to do with our salvation. John 6:44 clearly states that no one can come to the Son unless the Father draws him. Coming to the Son is the same as believing for the purpose of salvation, which is precisely why God calls in the first place, and is precisely what Isa. 55:11 states concerning the call (word,will) of God. It is also very important to note that Christ will also raise up on the last day (eternal resurrection of the just) those whom the Father calls for the purpose of receiving salvation. We cannot separate "those whom the Son will raise" from "those whom the Father calls". At what time in a person's life do they realize they are a sinner? Well, that can be debatable and perhaps the answer could be at most any age. However, just because a person understands they are a sinner does not imply they are being saved. The two are not necessarily the same. I knew I was a sinner as young as 16 but I was not saved until I was 38. Sam Hughey |
