Exactly. It’s on them now



Except that they by virtue of geography sit next to a vital waterway and now have a newfound strength to control it.


You can’t just throw your hands up now and say “hey we tried to help yall”


That’s the folly we all said at the start of this

:lol:



I’ve never understood the hate this board has for zendaya.


I get the hate for bri Larson and Rachel zeigler as they have been openly antagonistic but unless I’ve missed something it seems to me that Zendaya is pretty quiet off the set, her and Tim holland have a normal heterosexual marriage, and the biggest issue is she’s just in everything
quote:

Listen you clearly feel differently about the Bible being the word of God. You're clowning this exchange, which is too bad.


Well you don’t seem to think that God has said what one must do to be saved even when it is explicitly said in the Bible. So you might understand my confusion.


quote:

ans disagree with you/those you follow is the second part, what "knowingly rejects that and follows a different religion" means and how God passes judgment accordingly.



If you can show me the verse where it says someone can know Jesus and Christianity and actively choose to not follow Jesus and go to heaven I’m happy to hear.

Additionally in the scenario presented she is actively worshipping another God.

I’m not sure how one could reject Christianity any more than that. It takes a lot of gymnastics of interpretation or straight disregard of verses IMO to say otherwise.



I sincerely hope she repents.
That algae has done more for this country than you ever will!!!
quote:

I have clearly posted that I believe it's possible for a person born into a Hindu family/culture to reach heaven.




quote:

Here's your post - I don’t think it would be controversial that a professing Christian would believe the scriptures that say that Christ is the only way to salvation and that someone who knowingly rejects that and follows a different religion would end up in hell. What part of that do you think I find controversial?


These two quotes from you say very different things.

quote:

I've also posted that I think it's folly, and pretty strange coming from a Christian, by the way - to think that either one of us can know how God will judge another person




Listen you clearly feel differently about the Bible being the word of God.

However it’s the opposite of saying “**** Usha” to discuss this if you believe the word of God if she is clearly rejecting Christ as Lord as she did in this video.



Why would I not say something if I believe the word of God?

That would be extremely hateful. It would be like a parent watching their child and actively letting a toddler burn themselves on the stove.
Sad that yall think Trump can’t think for himself and depends on his handlers.



Seems like you think he’s a step away from Biden :dunno:

So unless Vance's wife is running for office, what is your point?



Well it makes me question the sincerity of his beliefs if his wife is Hindu and his kids are being raised Hindu.



quote:

What planet are you living on? The man and his wife have been anything but quite about his life, family, and beliefs. Hence the OP



You’re the one who got offended about it acting like it should be off limits not me.
quote:

I think that makes you 0 for 3. Here's your post - I don’t think it would be controversial that a professing Christian would believe the scriptures that say that Christ is the only way to salvation and that someone who knowingly rejects that and follows a different religion would end up in hell. What part of that do you think I find controversial





Well you refuse to answer a simple yes or no question. Vance’s wife is a professing Hindu and rejected Christianity.


Will she go to hell?
Apparently you think that’s controversial. I meant to say I didn’t think it would be. However. You yet to explain why citing scripture that would be wrong.
quote:

What makes you think it's controversial to see that all Christians are not 100% in sync on Christianity?


I don’t think it would be controversial that a professing Christian would believe the scriptures that say that Christ is the only way to salvation and that someone who knowingly rejects that and follows a different religion would end up in hell.



You still have yet to cite a scripture that outside of one which cites the law.
quote:

And it's something only God understands and can do. It's folly (and probably some other not so good things) to think we have the definitive answers.


God gave us the scriptures to find the answers.


What would be remarkably cruel for a God to sentence people to hell but not give the instruction manual on how to get to heaven.
quote:

You tell me




I’m asking for your beliefs and scripture to cite.


I’ve made it perfectly clear what I think.




ETA I truly want to know your beliefs and why based on scripture.


I honestly didn’t even think what I have said would be a controversial thing to people who profess Christianity
quote:

I believe Christ is the unique Savior of humanity. In this, I believe there is no difference between me/Catholics and the guys involved in this exchange. Where we differ is how God judges, and the notion that we're all judged precisely the same (or not). My belief - God doesn't judge people for a revelation they never had a genuine opportunity to receive



quote:

To be clear, if they are saved, they are saved by Christ alone.




So on the topic of Jd Vance’s wife. She is clearly an adult.


She is clearly in a place to know about Christ and Gods grace.


She has chosen to follow a different religion.


Will she end up in heaven?
quote:

So you don't think God grants who is saved?



How does he do that?
quote:

Seriously, do you think I'd answer that question differently than you? That's not where we disagree.


Clearly we do because you said Hindus can go to heaven. You have also equated works with salvation as well implying works earn salvation
quote:

What the **** have I posted that makes you think I don't believe there's a hell, and that many, many souls will find their way to it?




Who or what grants salvation?



Multiple people have asked that but you haven’t seem to answered that
quote:

You discount the beliefs of Catholics, but they've studied the same Word your faith has for probably a lot longer. It's interesting.




What?


Ive supported my views citing Catholics interpretation even though I’m not Catholic.


Your view of universalism was declared heresy all the way back in 553.
quote:

You interpret that Bible verse (and others) differently than I do.



You cite a verse that specifically deals with the law to claim that Hindus worshipping another god can ho go heaven.


I’m happy to hear your interpretation and other supportive scripture



quote:

It's pretty presumptuous (not really a virtue) to suggest that I don't believe the Bible.


I take no joy in saying lost people will spend eternity apart from God.

However it is the exact opposite of loving to not have these discussions if that is my belief that is founded in the Bible. It’s in fact incredibly cruel to not have the discussion.

Hence why I am spending this time discussing this.



It is a fundamental belief of Christianity of the trinity father son and Holy Spirit and that the only path for salvation is grace from Yahweh due to Jesus fulfilling the law by his death on the cross.



You may *feel* that sentencing a good person to Hell is mean because they look for salvation in places other than Jesus but that’s what the Bible says.


It’s (universalism) also been declared heresy by the Catholic Church (Origen)
quote:

I thought this was in the Bible - "When Gentiles, who do not possess the law, do instinctively what the law requires... they show that what the law requires is written on their hearts.



The law is not salvation.


Ephesians 2:8

quote:

8 For by grace you have been saved through faith; and [a]this is not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; 9 not a result of works, so that no one may boast.
