Bible Question (short): So ALL who believe in Christ are saved? |
Question (full): Dear Steve, Please permit me to ask a young Christian's questions then: It is a historical fact the Peter denied Christ. Not just once, but three times. So, when Peter did this, was he saved? What if he had died after denying that he knew Christ? Would he have gone to hell? We know that he had, at some point, 'believed in the Lord Jesus Christ'. He actually said to Jesus, "You are the Christ." So was Peter saved when he denied Christ? How about Satan? He believes that the Lord Jesus Christ exists. The demons believe that God exists and tremble. Acts 16:31 says, 'Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved...' Are they saved? Why or why not? The angels believe in the Lord Jesus Christ. Are they saved? The Jehovah's Witnesses believe in the Lord Jesus Christ as well as the Mormons. Are they saved? Muslims believe that Jesus existed and was a prophet. Are they saved? Isn't then, everyone who 'believes in the Lord Jesus Christ (Acts 16:31) saved? That is what the scripture says. Is it true? In Christ, Bill Mc |
