NASB | Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the assurance (title deed, confirmation) of things hoped for (divinely guaranteed), and the evidence of things not seen [the conviction of their reality--faith comprehends as fact what cannot be experienced by the physical senses]. |
Subject: Are unbelievers in any way "saved"? |
Bible Note: Rom 2:12 All who sin apart from the law will also perish apart from the law, and all who sin under the law will be judged by the law. One last point you didn't address is the scripture above. How do you reconcile your statement with verse 12? But apparently you plan to do just that and somehow explain so I'll move on to my next question. Call me dense but can you please help walk me through Judgment Day and pretend I've lived the best life I could, was basically kind to my neighbors, etc. I was bascially a decent sort of fella and live up to my conscience. HOWEVER, I didn't know a thing about the Bible or any of the concepts of christianity, Jewish religion, nothing at all about organized religion; let's say I lived my whole entire life on a deserted island. Please explain to me the mechanics, step by step of this kind of Justice our Lord will meter out to people like the one I've just described. Remember now, my lack of knowledge of Godly concepts was through no fault of my own. This should be very, very interesting to read. I hope all Forum participants are following closely this thread of conversation. God bless. --Rowdy |
