There are many sincere believers that I know. I don't see how they can make it according to my understanding. But I leave that final judgment to God.
This is post is the point of this thread. We know what we believe, however, it is presumptious of us to declare who is saved and who is not, based on OUR understanding of the scriptures.

The Pharisees were very devout religious men, they had the knowledge of Jesus coming and how He would come, yet they missed Him. We have the Words and understanding as we know it, but that doesn't make us any less prone to mistakes as the Pharisees were.

We should only allow God to put folks in hell.

Amen. I can see admitting that we don't know how a non-Apostolic made it. But notice...in saying this we leave the judgment to God and acknowledge our limitations.

Some here actually appear to be happy that souls are lost...as long as they are "right"! Some make condemning non-Apostolic souls an apparent benchmark for being "Apostolic". I assure you that I'm Apostolic...but I must also remind you that I'm not God.
