What happens to nonbelievers who never really know?

AMEN AT_THE_CROSS!

It makes me very happy to hear about people accepting Jesus. I give thanks for those stubborn Christians who keep trying.

All of the real and lasting answers are in JESUS.

Thanks be unto God for His unspeakable GIFT, Jesus Christ, our Lord and Saviour Forever!

Love In Christ,
Tom

My friend Nick is unsure of what he believes.
What do YOU believe?

What does the Bible say?
Have you looked it up?

 

You can read Eph.1: 4-10, God chose us from the foundation of the world.

Peace,

Your friend raises a good point with the example of Hindus - it's all relative. Remember, the romans, as they were throwing christians to the lions, were yelling "Death to the atheists!"

The question you should be asking yourself really is more along the lines of: why is/are my god(s) true and all the other gods false?

Cosmo,

Those are questions for the lost, and we were all lost at one point in our lives. When your heart is filled with JESUS, there is no question any longer.

Psalms 100:1-5  Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all ye lands. Serve the LORD with gladness: come before his presence with singing. Know ye that the LORD he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture. Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name. For the LORD is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations.

So you outright refuse to question your own beliefs? By asking yourself questions about your religion, one of two things will happen:

1. You reaffirm your beliefs, strengthening them
2. You realize your current beliefs are in need of reevaluation, and begin to think them over

Either way, it's a positive outcome. What have you to lose?

It is not a matter of refusing to question but rather not having the need to question for that question has already been answered when you have Jesus.

AMEN BROTHER!!

I've had Jesus in my heart for over 50 years, and that is my biggest joy and peace.

My only questions involve me, not JESUS. As unworthy as I am,:

why did Jesus love me enough to die for me?

why did Jesus offer Himself to me as Lord and Saviour?

why did Jesus rescue me from the curse of sin and death?

why does Jesus live in me and allow me to live in Him?

AND - I know the answer to the last questions:

What did I do to deserve being adopted as a child of God and given an inheritance with the saints in Glory?

What did I do to deserve spending eternity with Jesus?

Answer: NOTHING! - JESUS PAID IT ALL!!

Thanks be unto God for His unspeakable GIFT, Jesus Christ, our Lord and Saviour Forever!

Love In Christ,

The answer to all of those is LOVE. It is the kind of love that makes a soldier lay down his life for others that he does not even know, yet are his brothers and sisters, even when some of them have rejected you.

Jesus knows each and everyone of us even before we know Him. He knows all that we have done. Still He LOVES us.

As unworthy as we are He still LOVES us all. Not because of anything that we have said or done, not because of who we are but just because He does.

All we have to do is to accept and to return that LOVE.
