Bible Question: I have a question as to how and when a person is saved. What exactly must a person do inorder to be saved? Some people tell me that you must go before the chruch alter and profess Jesus Christ as your lord and saviour. I've also been told that making this profession where 3 or more gather in his name, will also save someone. Also, what about if one was Catholic from birth and went through the various practices of the Catholic religion up until adulthood. Then began practicing another religion. Was that person saved as a Catholic or were they never saved? I find this all very confusing. There is nothing worse than someone calling you a non-Christian when you thought you were. |
