I personally belive salvation is through accepting Jesus as Lord and Savior....as for people getting mixed translations and odd information I think it's all part of our fallen nature that Jesus came to save us from, so I think they'd still be saved.Daylighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02331865097029652053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2632066603779000512.post-3412708645624739272008-06-18T00:36:00.000-07:002008-06-18T00:36:00.000-07:00It seems to me that the Christians are demanding a...It seems to me that the Christians are demanding a suspension of the normal critical faculty in particular areas of life: those concerned with such beliefs. It's comparable to the "falling in love" phenomenon that you analysed in another post.<BR/><BR/>It's clear that the human mind, whilst wired for reason, is also wired to selectively blank out reason where required.Vincenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18297306807695767580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2632066603779000512.post-2008435905658867312008-05-30T08:05:00.000-07:002008-05-30T08:05:00.000-07:00chris & milo,bejamin the sower is telling you the ...chris & milo,<BR/><BR/>bejamin the sower is telling you the truth. 1 John, Acts 20:21, and Romans chapter 8 show you that Jesus Christ is the only Way, Truth, and Life.

For example, must you also accept the Trinity, Adam & Eve, original sin, virgin birth etc. Can you be a "true" Christian and not believe in, say the virgin birth? And if so, why is that never mentioned when they are trying to convert you?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
