Subject: The people that never heard of Jesus? |
Bible Note: Hello Vintage, Your statements leave me a bit puzzled. My understanding- as well stated by Beja- is that we are all sinners, all guilty and deserve hell. Paul lays out the doctine of condemnation succinctly in Rom. 1:18-3:23. I have 2 questions for you: 1.You said, "They fall under a different provision of God for the express circumstance you are describing." Exactly what different provisions are there? 2. You also stated, "God will judge the hearts of men, that never had the opportunity, to accept Jesus Christ as Savior." What scripture(s) would support this? This statement would imply that God has two standards? I don't reach that conclusion from my reading and undrerstanding of scripture- especially Romans! Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |
