This is the type of situration i've been talking about:

Tokyo (CNN) -- Traces of radioactive iodine were detected Saturday in China's Heilongjiang province, a Chinese government agency told state-run media.

The slight rise in radiation, which authorities determined had emanated from the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant, was a minuscule fraction -- one-hundred-thousandth, to be exact -- beyond normal background radiation levels, China's National Nuclear Emergency Coordination Committee said, according to Xinhua.


If this planet does begin to die a slow death I could see billions of people searching for God. When creation is fading away, the Intellectually Honest will make a wholehearted effort towards the Creator.

I understand the Word of God says this:

Matthew 7:14
14But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.

However, Holy Scripture also says that "Nothing is impossible to God."

What if this planet begins to die a slow death?

When Jesus was dying on the cross he was crucified with two other thieves. Neither one was on the path to Eternal Life. However, one was saved and the other was not!

Thus, we have a person who was NOT on the road to Eternal Life but still found it.... thanks to the infinite mercy of God.

Christians: What if this planet begins to die a slow death?

Can you believe that Almighty God, in and through Jesus Christ, will have mercy on billions of people? Can you pray and believe for that? Will YOU join me in that prayer?
 Quoting: Once4All


It has been over a year since i began this thread. I

do still believe that God is showing me that the

environment of this planet will continue to grow more

and more toxic as a result of the sinful choices of evil

men. As the life on this planet dies many people will

die as well. As this planet turns into a wasteland let us

pray that Many People turn to Jesus Christ for the salvation

of their immortal souls.
 Quoting: Once4All


Yes.

Even the thief on the cross can come-

"pray that Many People turn to Jesus Christ for the salvation
of their immortal souls."



I pray espically for the evil, wicked thief on the cross type man.

Jesus says come.
You are welcome at his table.

but she loved sin.

So you're saying I can mass murder people in the name of Jesus Christ and expect to be allowed in to heaven?


We must allow Scripture to interpret itself, rather than attach faulty human suppositions and conjectures to the Word of God for the warning is clear: "For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book." Revelation 22:18,19

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1438095



The Bible clearly states the opposite of what he believes. No one who willfully breaks the law of God will be found in heaven.

"Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city. For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie." Revelation 22:14,15

Sin is the breaking of the moral law. "Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law." 1 John 3:4. And it is this breaking of God's commandments that separates us from Him, for "your iniquities have separated you from your God; And your sins have hidden His face from you, So that He will not hear." Isaiah 59:2

Thus, it is clear that none will be granted immortality whom do not have the love of our Creator in their hearts which is evidenced in living in obedience and harmony with God's principles of love, His moral law of liberty.
 Quoting: A Voice In The Wilderness


Hey Brainiac perhaps you can tell me what it means when it says "Nothing shall ever seperate us from the Love of God that is ours through Christ Jesus." Perhaps I don't understand what nothing means clarify.
Tired of all these damn christians, muslims, jews, the church of this and the church of that. I fart in your general direction.

 Quoting: Haha TolD ya so




"When Paul gave a litany of created things that can not separate us from the love of God in Romans 8:39, notice that he did not say, "neither fornication nor adultery nor drunkenness nor murder will separate us from the love of God." He was well aware that if we choose sin, we renounce Christ. In 1 Corinthians 15:1–2, Paul says, "Now I would remind you, brethren, in what terms I preached to you the gospel, which you received, in which you stand, by which you are saved, if you hold it fast—unless you believed in vain." So, you could believe, but fail to hold fast to the gospel, and not be saved (cf. 2 Pet. 2:20).

This is why Paul spoke in the book of Romans about the "obedience of faith" (Rom. 1:5, 16:26). It is not enough that one call Jesus Lord, for, as he said, "Not every one who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven" (Matt. 7:21; cf. Matt. 10:33, 18:35). If we are disobedient, God will "take away his share in the tree of life and in the holy city" (Rev 22:19).

Just because you may choose to no longer hold fast to what was freely given to you does not mean that you were ever capable of earning what was given to you in the first place. The same is true of earthly sonship—it cannot be earned. But if you were adopted, you would be free to run away as a prodigal son and lose your inheritance."

"I don't think that people are going to be on their way to Heaven just because they suddenly start to say;
"I believe in Jesus."

All who call upon the Lord Jesus will be saved.

The theif on the cross knew he was dying, admitted the truth to Jesus and was consequently granted Paradise.

If this planet dies a slow death, could billions turn to Jesus with the same sorrow for their sins?

Are Christians willing to ask God to save billions of people in and through His only son, Jesus? Can you picture it in your mind and believe it will happen???

The Apostle Paul crearly explains that those who never heard the Gospel will be judged according to their conscience. There are still billions in China and India who have not heard.

Very true my friend...but Christ reveals that at the end

And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people

Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.

Rev 14


Fascinating Scripture.

Are you saying this angel could help convert China and

India to Jesus Christ?

Unfortunately no.....even though God is longsuffering and merciful,the World refuses to repent of its sins

Its a theme that runs throughout Revelation

And the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk:

Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts.
Rev.9

And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God, which hath power over these plagues: and they repented not to give him glory.

And blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores, and repented not of their deeds.
Rev.16
 Quoting: mathetes


6 Then I saw another angel flying in midair, and he had the eternal gospel to proclaim to those who live on the earth—to every nation, tribe, language and people. 7 He said in a loud voice, “Fear God and give him glory, because the hour of his judgment has come. Worship him who made the heavens, the earth, the sea and the springs of water.”
=======================================================
So God has an Angel flying in mid-air in the very last
of days over every nation and those who are sincerely searching for the truth are not going to believe him....

Really???

When Jesus was dying on the cross he was crucified with two thieves.

You lost me here.


Words mean things.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1113553


aid, “If you are the king of the jewish people, save yourself.”

38 There was a written notice above him, which read: THIS IS THE KING OF THE jewish people.

39 One of the criminals who hung there hurled insults at him: “Aren’t you the Messiah? Save yourself and us!”

40 But the other criminal rebuked him. “Don’t you fear God,” he said, “since you are under the same sentence? 41 We are punished justly, for we are getting what our deeds deserve. But this man has done nothing wrong.”

42 Then he said, “Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.[d]”

43 Jesus answered him, “Truly I tell you, today you will be with me in paradise.”

This translation says 'criminal' while others use the word 'thief'

or did you want me to delete the word other?

I'm so pleased that this thread has reappeared! We need to keep thinking about where we're headed. Life is never limitless (here on earth. I'm sure those late night theater goers in Aurora never thought it would have a bad ending). Tomorrow is not promised to any man (woman/child). bump

Re: Are Any Christians Beginning To Understand How JESUS CHRIST Could Save Billions of People ???
Are Christian even willing to ask God to save billions and billions of people in and through Jesus Christ???

Can you BELIEVE He is willing to do just that?


My observation is that most Christians don't want God to have mercy on people who are not Christians, they don't even want them to have a chance. They want to feel like they are part of a special, elite group.

It's all bullshit.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 781939

That is the sentiment I'm trying to address.
Christians who will not believe that God can save billions of people and won't even ask Him to because of Religious Pride!
 Quoting: Once4All


For God so loved the WORLD. Not a few, not some...the whole world.
I will be the first Christian here to say it is usually we Christians that turn people away from the message of the Cross.

How do you know one thief got saved and one did not? Did Jesus say that?
No man escapes when freedom fails. The best men rot in filthy jails. And those that cried Appease! Appease! Are hanged by those they tried to please.

That is NOT true. We want people to be saved and to come to Lord Jesus, not to be lost. I'm sorry you think this right now, but I hope that your life changes so that you think better thoughts in the future.

Jesus told the thief that was saved, "Today shalt thou be with me in Paradise."

That means that that man was saved because only the Redeemed got to go to Paradise. The unsaved went to Hades.

Luke Chapter 23

39 One of the criminals hanging beside him scoffed, “So you’re the Messiah, are you? Prove it by saving yourself—and us, too, while you’re at it!”

40 But the other criminal protested, “Don’t you fear God even when you have been sentenced to die? 41 We deserve to die for our crimes, but this man hasn’t done anything wrong.” 42 Then he said, “Jesus, remember me when you come into your Kingdom.”

43 And Jesus replied, “I assure you, today you will be with me in paradise.”
