Then he won't be saved on the day of judgement.
I guess I couldn't make it clear to you that without our complicity in salvation there is no salvation.
The Muslim had to "hear", "believe", and "act" on his faith to be included among the brotherhood of believers.
Again I have failed to make myself clear.
Jesus' advocacy must be asked for in order to be received.
A man must truly repent of sin in order to ask for advocacy, as "God heareth not sinners".
It isn't belief if it is forced.
It is brain-washing.
I hope I cleared up that misconception above.
I hope I cleared up that misconception above.
I hope I cleared up that misconception above.
And "in Him", we are righteous too !
You wrote "
Then he won't be saved on the day of judgement",
yet you believe 1 John 2:1-2 means that Jesus propitiated to cover the sin of the unbelieving dead Muslim man, that "son of hell" (Matthew 23:15), thus you include the Muslim man in "every man" (Hebrews 2:9-10) and "the whole world" (1 John 2:1-2), then, in effect, you believe Jesus is a colossal failure; in other words, the Jesus that you preach is so weak that his propitiating advocacy is null and void.
Let's review Apostolic testimony again:
My little children, I am writing these things to you so that you may not sin. And if anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous, and He Himself is the propitiation for our sins; and not for ours only, but also for those of the whole world
(1 John 2:1-2)
And, in the Book of Hebrews:
we do see Him who was made for a little while lower than the angels, namely, Jesus, because of the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor, so that by the grace of God He might taste death for everyone. For it was fitting for Him, for whom are all things, and through whom are all things, in bringing many sons to glory, to perfect the author of their salvation through sufferings
(Hebrews 2:9-10)
So, when you wrote "
Then he won't be saved on the day of judgement", then you conveyed that you believe "
we do see Him who was made for a little while lower than the angels, namely, Jesus, because of the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor, so that by the grace of God He might taste death for that unbelieving dead Muslim man. For it was fitting for Him, for whom are all things, and through whom are all things, in bringing many sons to glory which includes that unbelieving dead Muslim man to glory, to perfect the author of their salvation including the perfection of that unbelieving dead Muslim man's salvation through sufferings" (your conveyance
Hopeful 2);
therefore, you convey that Jesus tried to perfect that unbelieving dead Muslim man's salvation, but the Jesus you preach failed miserably to perfect the salvation of that "son of hell" (Matthew 23:15), so, in effect, you believe Jesus is a colossal failure; in other words, the Jesus that you preach is so weak that he is incapable of perfecting the salvation of people for whom he perfects salvation, so the Jesus you preach has null and void perfection of salvation.
In contrast to what you believe, Lord Jesus succeeds 100% of the time in His propitiating advocacy as well as His perfection of salvation in us children of God, so the long dead unbelieving Muslim man is not included in the "everyone" (Hebrews 2:9-10) nor "the whole world" (1 John 2:1-2),
Your writing of "
It isn't belief if it is forced" is a direct contradiction and rejection of the Truth (John 14:6) saying "
This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He has sent" (John 6:29). Christians do not reject the sayings of Christ. A person believing in the Son of God whom the father has sent, this very "believing" is the loving work of God (John 6:29), not of man (Ephesians 2:8-10), but in Truth (John 14:6) is entirely controlled by Lord Jesus (John 15:16)!
Now let's recap what brought us to this point in our correspondence.
I don't see that man's name in scripture on the "REJECTED" list .
In fact I don't see any "rejected" lists at all.
Do you know who will not be granted eternal life ?
Paul made a list in Gal. 5:19-21..."Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,
21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God."
Those who walk after the flesh will not be granted eternal life.
I rejoice in the fact that I was offered the way to walk in the Spirit instead of in the flesh.
Were you offered the same opportunity?
Or not?
As was established in
this post, the Muslim man who lived in the year 1502 in the middle of the Ottoman Empire never believed in Jesus, so that long dead Muslim man died being a "
son of hell" (Matthew 23:15); therefore, when you wrote "
I don't see that man's name in scripture on the 'REJECTED' list", then you convey that the long dead unbelieving Muslim man was saved from the wrath of God by Jesus Christ's propitiating advocacy, so you convey that Jesus saves unbelievers; however, Lord Jesus exclusively saves person's whom Jesus exclusively chooses for the King of Glory says "
He who believes in Him is not judged; he who does not believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God" and "
This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He has sent" (John 6:29); therefore, you call Jesus a deceiver.
Lord Jesus successfully rescues and redeems every man, including me by His grace for His glory, (Hebrews 2:9-10) for whom He executed propitiating advocacy without exception (1 John 2:1-2) as shown in
this post; in contrast, your inclusion in "the whole world" of the long dead unbelieving Muslim man of 1502AD results in you preaching that Jesus is a failure per the
same post;
All glory and power and honor be to the Holy God forever and ever, The Righteous One alone is salvation, Amen!!!
