those who have never heard

Hi SandyFla
Good point! :)
They thinkand are indoctrinated to accept and act on believing that everyone is going to hell anyway and only they can stop it. They think that all those who don't know they bare going to hell are opportunities for them get brownie points if they do Gods job which they think God can't do anyway.... :-\
Shame! :'(

I mean ... c'mon ... they're safe if they don't know, but share the Gospel with them and they risk rejecting it and going to hell. If I believed that, I'd never tell anyone.
And why would Jesus want us to share the Gospel with people if, by sharing, they might be condemned to burn in hell forever? ::)
Makes no sense. But then, neither does much of what the church teaches!

I read somewhere that the "great commission" was really Jesus telling the disciples to witness to the Jews- not a mandate for the general populace. What does anyone know about that???
Sandy, I always thought that too, about missionaries--No, don't tell anyone!!

Yes, that is a good point, Sandy. Never seen it like that before. ;D ;D
Extol, here is a verse that totally throws their freewill theory out the window.
(2Pe 2:10 ASV) but chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of defilement, and despise dominion. Daring, self-willed, they tremble not to rail at dignities:
That is a dangerous thing to believe that our will overpowers the will of the One who made us. Yet, they push that so hard. What is the whole purpose to the plan of God, if it comes down to our own will. I thank God that our destiny is not dependent upon the will of mankind, whew, we all would be in a heap of trouble. ;)
God bless,
Gary

Right. Don't tell them and they automatically go to heaven; tell them and they could go to hell. (Against Scripture, they believe that everyone is lost and on their way to hell.)
So why send missionaries? Their answer: Because Jesus said so.
But doesn't Jesus know that by telling them, He is allowing many of them to be condemned to the eternal fires of hell?
How stupid and mixed up do they think He is? ::)

The plan is that they experience how stupid and mixed up they are....just like I was once!...Shame..they are in for a painful revelation.....Ouch..
