Bible Question: Is today the only day of salvation for all who are in the world today? If it is most of the world today is lost and without hope, and wouldn't that make God a failure? |
Bible Answer: Arnie: No it would not make God a failure. Humanity chooses to rebel against God. It is our very nature to do so (Romans 3:9-18). God's judgment of some glorifies Him as a just and holy God, and His redemption of others glorifies Him as a merciful God who redeems His creation and defeats Satan. 'Not to us, O LORD, not to us, But to Your name give glory Because of Your lovingkindness, because of Your truth. Why should the nations say, "Where, now, is their God?" But our God is in the heavens; He does whatever He pleases.' --Psalm 115:1-3 --Joe! |
