Do you believe that everyone who is not a Catholic when he dies goes to Hell?
As far as "Non-Catholics are concerned, I am bound by the church to believe that all those outside the church will go to hell when they die.
If you can find an infallible declaration that contradicts the ones I have already offered, please feel free to enlighten me because as of yet, I have not found it and have no doubt that the Church never will and never can change Her mind.
Please, I am interested in your opinion of the following senario that I think states plainly how ludicrous personal preferences are in regards to salvation:
**********
Take this sort of reasoning, for example: A man says, "My religion, or an important part of it at least, is to respect your religion, regardless of what it is."
Or, "I hold that Christ is Divine. If you say He is not Divine, I have respect for your belief."
Do you not see that that is an awfully funny creed? I get into Heaven through Christ, and you get into Heaven without Christ! That is a strange division in a world in which we are meant to be one. In other words, I have Christ and believe He is God, but I cannot give Him to you, whom I love!
Do you really and truly believe that Jesus is God and that He is the Way, the Truth and the Life, Who leadeth all men into eternity?
Whoever says that he has Jesus Christ for his Saviour, and thinks that everyone else does not have to have Him as Saviour too, does not really believe in or love Jesus Christ.
On second thought... Let's not go to Camelot.
'Tis a silly place....
