Why not? The only thing I can say for sure is that
Acts 2:38 is the way given for us to be saved.
1. However, God is sovereign and can do what He wants. We have many, many examples in Scripture of God going outside of His spoken word and/or commandments.
2. I would also point out that
Acts 2:38 doesn't say it is the
only way, although we know that Jesus is the only way. If someone asks me how to get some place; I could tell them one way and there could still be other ways.
3. Which isn't to say that I would tell someone that there might be another way. I'm all for walking on the known path when it comes to salvation.
4. Yet, it is inconceivable to me that some of the finest people walking the earth; loving God and working diligently for the kingdom of God and even losing thier lives for the Gospel are going to be cast into hell.
So this 3 stepper says
Acts 2:38 is the
known way and I wouldn't want suggest trying a shortcut; but I sure hope to see alot of other folks there.
