Re: Those who never heard about Jesus?
This drives me to share the gospel. I don't want the lost to be lost.
then you are compelled to consider the extent to which you are calling others into a system of mutual agreement, verbally binding, and inviting them into making a promise that they do not understand based upon fear, possibly, largely depending upon how the hearer takes you, no matter how sincere you might be.
it does not matter how much you disavow that all i have to do to be considered accepted is agree with you verbally, if that is in fact the truth. And if it is a lie, then tell me at what stage blood is required, skin, to make the contract any different. Is it possible you have been invited into a system of killing people, trampling Christ, putting Him on a t shirt, depending upon how literally they take you at your word that agreeing with you will bring them salvation, if even some few make it out? Is it at all possible that some more generous understanding of this fulfills the law and prophets might envision a better system where no words need be spoken, or some other interpretation of that--because that seems like a lot to rationalize away with all due respect. Hmm? Is it even possible, is all i'm asking.
