"I think it would be his claim that those who who have not heard the preaching of Christ are off the hook. Maybe you should address this issue to him?? "

Actually, Vis, xzins is on the record for stating that those who never hear the gospel -as in those, say, who lived in North America 1500 years ago- are saved. They are saved because they never had the opportunity to ~reject~ the gospel.

We used to call it the "Plan B" method of salvation.

He even hinted at this within the past couple of days.

He seems to be talking out of both sides of his mouth on this issue.

plan b

I don't think anything I've written recently is different than anything I've written in the past.

My sense of IF a person would EARN his way into heaven, IF he perfectly kept the law is based on Rom 2:13 and its context. There's no secret there. Besides, it's the accurate interpretation.

If Jean Chauvin lived a perfect life, which he hasn't, WOULD He have earned his way into heaven? Yes.

Call that "plan b" if you wish. The point remains that it IS a way of salvation....just NOT an effective one.
