You are saying that God cannot reveal himself to everyone. You are saying that there are too many people for God to reach, so they will be the exception.

Now you're just putting words into my mouth.

The next logical conclusion of your way of thinking is to totally remove all evidence of God and of Christ. Burn all the Bibles. Tear down all the churches. Remove all the Christians. Totally remove all evidence of God and His Son.

Whatever.

Because, if you beleive that people who have never heard the good news, who have never had God revealed to them will go to heaven, then we should remove all evidence of His existence, so that all may share in the bounty of heaven. But you know that is clearly not the case.

Didn't He once say, when talking to a non-believer that knew Christ but didn't follow Him, that it would be better for those in Sodom and Gamorrah than for him because he had knowledge of Christ but chose not to follow?

The only to the Father is through His Son, and anyone who tells you otherwise is a liar.

When did I ever argue that point? Why do you limit the "through the Son" to a time period on this earth?

Have faith in the God that saved you from sin and death.

I do.

He says that no one has an excuse.

Explain Rom 2: 13-16.

So are you going to believe Him or the rationalization of man?

I'll believe Him, not the rationalization of JohhnyM.

Good Morning Everyone! We have a winner. OK, this sentence I don't find necessarily as absurd as the others, but I do think it is a funny sentence for someone to have written. Re 2057

Frankly, I have the seal of God, that I have eternal life, so going to hell is not an option for me or my wife

"Explain Rom 2: 13-16."

I did. See post 2007.

Uninformed Protestants do not show their ignorance of the church teachings by doing works; they simply do nothing, which is probably better since they have no false sense of security.

There are no "uninformed" Protestants running around doing works? Are you sure about that?

(Oh, and who exactly does have a "false sense of security?")
