Bible Question (short): Saved apart from Christ? |
Question (full): What does Romans 1:20 or Romans 1:18 have to do with this? This part of Romans Chapter 1 has to do with God's wrath against mankind. When the wrath of God is finally poured out, we, whose life is in Christ, will not come under condemnation but will be saved (our final salvation). The salvation we are now experiencing is being "worked out" in us. It is "sanctification". We are "justified" (saved) through the blood at the point we first believe and accept what Christ did for us on the cross. One day we will recieve the ultimate form of our salvation and enter into His eternal presence. No where do I find in all of God's word any scripture that supports your contention that any are saved other than through Christ. |
