1 | Created for heaven or hell? | John 3:16 | THE COT | 107979 | ||
hi, I have already went through this frightening question myself, I understand fully your question. Im not sure If Im allowed to do this in theis thing, but the answer is God created man with the ability to choose. God is self determined, and we are created in his image, therefore we are selfdetermined also to make our own choices. we are born condemned, and have the ability to choose christ. is this is not true, we cannot be blamed , see prov 1:29. some argue that we can only choose evil, but Ive seen all the arguments, there not convincing.I recomend wordsearches, www.swordsearcher.com to take words in there context, also take every scripture in context also. you will find the truth, that Jesus died for the whole world, john 3:16, 1 john 2:2. john 1:29 if all have sinned in the whole world, and jesus died for the sin of the world, then JESUS died for everyone. therefore all have a chance to enter heaven. many will disagree, Ive heard all the arguments, like "if Jesus died for everyone, then howcome everyone isnt in heaven" or " the word world doesnt refer to everyone in the original greek. ( I would ask them what manuscripts thier reading, (read the textus receptus) and if thier farmiliar with the lexicons condition. if you have questions, just ask me, I wont type everything i one night!! c ya, THE COT. |

2 | Non-denominational theology? | John 3:16 | THE COT | 107978 | ||
hi, Im a nondenominational christian, I Go to a baptist church, do I guess Im a good one to answer. I beleive in nondenominalationalism because of 1 cor 1:13. "is christ divided" I dont beleive in brands like Calvanist or Arminian, or Catholic, because that is directly against scripture. It causes the unity in christ to slowly crumble. nondenominational theology is not realy anything specific, just agreeing on the essentials and obvious statements of the bible, like creation, the authority of the bible, the deity of Christ, and salvation by faith alone. you decide what you beleive concerning the nonessentials, like end times, freechoice, the claim of the sinlessness of mary ( I am not claiming to beleive it, I just say that because its a nonessential to ones salvation), for example, the church I go to is calvanistic, and I beleived it once, until, I realized that that wasnt what I saw in the bible. also the same with end times view (its reformed baptist) nondenominationalism is siply beleif in the essentials, and agreeing to forbear with one another when there are differences. we accept one another, and celebrate Christ until his return. |
