Really?
You guys are the ones who believe in free will. Remember?
Not only that, His word has been out there the whole time with its ability to correct the error that religions and churches promulgate.
What do you want Him to have done. FORCE everyone into believing a certain way as the Catholic church loved to do?
Why did He wait over 1500 years to “enlighten” a bunch of non Greek speaking Western Europeans as to the Truth and since then to limit the understanding of that Truth to so few people, virtually all of whom are English speaking Westerners?
He didn't wait 1,500 years to do that. His Holy Spirit has always been on hand to enlighten people. Anyone who truly wanted to know God could and would find Him.
He always has a remnant.
“He always has a remnant.”
And you guys, I take it, are that remnant? All of you, some of you, most of you but none of us?
I’ve been told on these threads that the only way to “call upon the true Lord” is to do so in English, Is that one of the rules of the “remnant”? If I do go to hell, do I get to “ stand on the Bishop’s shoulders?” Or was that just part of a bedtime story for Orthodox children?
