Okay so I know it has been an eternity since I have attempted to blog but I am going to give it a try again...
I have been asked a few questions from friends/coworkers lately that have really made me think. Please feel free to give me your opinion on these thoughts.
If you become a new creation when you become saved through Christ, then how come more often than not you never see a real difference for an extended amount of time in those who profess to be changed?
If we really believe that those who do not hear the word of God or the gift of salvation will spend eternity in Hell then how come we don't scream it from the mountaintops or at least try to tell everyone we meet. If we truly believe this fate is true as the Bible says it is then how can we allow our friends, coworkers, neighbors go without us telling them. If we truly believed shouldn't and wouldn't we be trying to tell everyone we meet and not make excuses like "I don't want to be pushy" or "I don't want to offend anyone?"
Another question that has been posed to me is, What about the people who dont have the Bible or have never had an opportunity to hear about Christ, do we really believe that they will go to Hell even though they were never given an opportunity to choose to believe in Christ or not. If so, is that fair? Another twist on this was posed also... What about the generations of Gentiles, did they all go to hell because they were not "the chosen ones" like the Jews?
ANy thoughts on these questions are welcomed!
