    Saved By Law?

    The point of Romans chapter 2, verse 13, is that no one ever kept the law, other than the Lord Jesus. So yes, the doers of the law shall be justified--if there were any.

    Saved By Law?

    Even those who have the law written in their hearts will violate that law. There is no justification in the law because of the weakness of the flesh. Man simply cannot keep the law, whether written in stone or in the heart. Yes, we can keep some of it, some of the time, and we should do the...

    Saved By Law?

    From a friend: Jesus was very clear when he said, ". . . I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." (John 14:6) There is no reason for telling us to take the gospel into all the world (Mat. 28:18-20), if God has plans to save people without the gospel...

    Saved By Law?

    By the deeds of the law, no flesh shall be justified. Nor was the law given for justification. It was given to make sin obvious to us, and to bring us to Christ because we cannot be justified by law.

    Saved By Law?

    The purpose of the law was not for justifying sinners. This is an example of Christians MISUNDERSTANDING rather than reading to gain UNDERSTANDING. Without Calvary, no one is justified.

    Saved Without Hearing The Gospel?

    We aren’t under the Old Covenant. No one can be saved under the New by believing on God. Salvation is only in Jesus Christ. Had He not said so, I would think salvation to be a generic belief. It is not. It is specific. No other “gospel” will suffice. The Gospel of Christ alone brings salvation...

    Saved Without Hearing The Gospel?

    We aren’t talking OT. We sre talking post-Cross, post-resurrection. I am not promoting Calvinism. YOU are. You think people can be saved apart from Christ. Cslvinists believe that. I believe the Lord Jesus was perfectly clear. No one comes to the except through Him. Period. It is literally...

    Saved Without Hearing The Gospel?

    I will add, the Father did not die for you. The Holy Spirit did not die for you. Jesus Christ alone died for you and sprinkled His blood on the Mercy Seat in Heaven and satisfied the wrath of God against sinners. Jews won’t get to God except through Christ. Neither will musims, buddhists...

    Saved Without Hearing The Gospel?

    There is only one mediator between God and men, the man Jesus Christ. There is no way to trust God except through Jesus Christ. No man knows the Father except the Son reveals Him. Wherefore they entered not in, because of unbelief. Believe on the Lord Jesus, and thou shalt be saved. He that...

    Saved Without Hearing The Gospel?

    John John 14:6. Acts 4:12. Acts 10:43. There’s another thing we have to understand. God put up with people’s ignorance in the past, but after the cross of Christ, there is only one way to be saved, and that is trusting in the Lord Jesus. If someone wants to know the living God, God will send...

    Saved Without Hearing The Gospel?

    There is NO SALVATION for lost sinners apart from Jesus Christ.

    Saved Without Hearing The Gospel?

    John of Japan wrote: "It is not limiting the sovereign God to say that He Himself limits salvation to those who hear the Gospel. God can certainly save without the Gospel if He wants to. But His plan (cf Greek boule, βουλή) is that the Gospel be the means of people getting saved through the...

    Saved Without Hearing The Gospel?

    Those who believed God before the Cross of Christ were kept in Paradise, in Abraham's bosom, until Christ was resurrected, when He led captivity captive and gave good gifts to men. The disagreement is TODAY, after the Cross, Silverhair seems to think someone can be saved apart from believing on...

    Saved Without Hearing The Gospel?

    Silverhair asked: “Why leave out or those that have been convicted of their sin or only know of Him through His creation?” Why not call muslims, hindus, buddhists, and atheists Christians? Because they’re NOT! God does not wink at ignorance anymore. There is one way to God for the...

    Saved Without Hearing The Gospel?

    It’s impossible to be more clear than this; Acts 17:30; John 14:6; Acts 4:12. Will we be like the pope, and start believing muslims and brothers and sisters in Christ? The Bible says all in Adam are dead. All in CHRIST are alive. Christ is the Ark. Everyone not in the Ark are lost.
