Mike, I luv you bro, but you're killing me here.

Careful now... If you want to use that line of argument, it simply doesn't hold up.

For example... there are certainly instances in the Book of Acts where it talks about people being saved, but the Bible never stated that they repented. Should we just assume that repentance isnt necessary for salvation since it's not recorded in each instance?

If so, wouldnt there be a serious flaw with that assumption?

Thanks for playing
