My belief system is fine, thank you. Yours, though, appears to not be grounded in Jesus. That will prove to be difficult for you in the long run. Trust in the LORD. God, through Christ, is your only source of hope and salvation.
You are off base on the Jesus bit. We haven’t discussed that.
We’re discussing it now. Here’s the question you (and everyone) needs to answer: When I die, what will be my eternal destiny, heaven or hell? For everyone, it is one or the other. No middle ground. No make overs. No second chance. Up or down, so to speak. And the Bible is clear, clear, clear on the Up (heaven) requirement: Accept and trust Jesus Christ as one’s savior. Everyone else, Down (hell).
The personal question for you is simple: On a scale of 0 to 100 (100 being high), what is the percentage chance that you are going to heaven?
If you have accepted Jesus as your savior, then the answer can easily be 100%. If not, no matter what your answer, the result is 0%. This is not graded on a curve. And your opinion of the system is irrelevant. God’s view reigns supreme. So, where do you stand? Up or down?
Well, maestro, I believe that I will be going to Heaven, because I believe in Jesus Christ as my Savior from all sin, death, and the power of the devil. This Salvation comes to me by Grace alone through Faith, which is itself a Gift from the Holy Spirit.
OK, your turn: Is God’s Creation limited to your understanding and knowledge?
Gosh, no. If God’s Creation was limited to my understanding and knowledge, God would be quite impotent. And congratulations on your salvation experience. Perhaps we will converse in person in heaven.
