Subject: Once saved are you going to heaven? |
Bible Note: Hello John, I do not desire to get into this discussion of predestination, but would like to question your use of this one scripture reference to prove it. In context Jesus is speaking to His disciples concerning the one who will betray Him. As the disciples ask 'Is it I?' Jesus responds... John 13:18 18 but it is that the Scripture may be fulfilled, 'HE WHO EATS MY BREAD HAS LIFTED UP HIS HEEL AGAINST ME.' There is no reason to asume this scripture is speaking generally about all 'chosen' but rather to this specific few "I do not speak of all of YOU (present is understood). I know the ones I have chosen;" The fact that He specifically singled out and chose these disciples is not in question. I do not believe this verse in context is an asset to your case. God bless |
