I'm sorry, but to me that seems akin to a Skull n Bones initiation not a profession of faith -- especially when the outcome is that one belongs to a special 'club' and non-members are damned forever.

Joh 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: (THE ELECT)
but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. (EVERYONE ELSE)

Which "club" are you a member of?

Now you are twisting things around again. Believing in Christ is not the same as believing in a pre-destined "elect" and that some people are condemned to hell, which is what you believe. I believe God wishes to save everyone. Evidently you don't.

Do you believe that God chose certain people to be condemned to hell and that He chose them from before they were born and condemned them to the path to hell? Thereby, that point negates the whole meaning of Christ coming to save us.
