The other thing is what you said here is simply not comparable to begin with. We are talking about Eternal things compared to temporal things. We are talking about heaven and hell issues compared to what you are talking about. Personal convictions are PERSONAL. They are from ourselves, not from God
Brother, God saves us as individuals, with our own strengths and weaknesses. I don't believe God uses a cookie cutter approach with us, other than the initial entry requirements.
