Bible Question:
Is there a verse in the Bible that says that when a believer in a family is saved, the whole house (ie, family) is saved? My family is mainly non-Christian and they grew up believing in another religion, with very little exposure to the Christian faith. Are there any ways I can get them to believe in Christianity? Does that mean they can't be saved? What about those people who are illiterate and who have never actually come into contact witht he Christian faith? What if they were brought up with wrong notions about Christianity and that it is really very difficult to change their point of view? How does God reach out to them? What should I do? Thank you so much for answering my questions. :) |
Bible Answer: Unfortunately, there is no way for another person to be saved by one's own salvation. Your best course of action is to continue to seek help from God to do everything in accordance with His will and possibly someday your family may seek to do the same. As for those people who are truely seeking God and are skeptical of their false religion, God will provide a Christian to present His master plan. Keep praying for quidance. |
