If Only Christians Will Be Saved, why Does God Say, I Call A People Not Known of Me, Not Called By My Name?

This Is Not To Say God Ever Intended this Concept but the mainstream of Christianity has... what I am saying is that this passage was intended by God for that reason, that the world will be the main part of salvation and not the church at all... as a cornerstone, yes... but maybe in reality salvation will come through the world but just not of it... that God's love will be reveal in all the world... not just in the Church & that will be a sign of a new beginning in the world system & a beginning of the end.

That God will show himself to all the world & so the old way of religion will be replaced with the truth & God will do this by manifesting his love & wisdom in all, so that this can happen.

This means that religion has got in the way of God's true plan & his own calling. That this passage does not refer to calling people to heaven but to salvation on Earth and so will begin... to change the Laws of Man in order to find the truth... That the salvation be shown in all.

I don't think only christians will go to heaven/be saved. It's an ongoing struggle, and I believe God gives everyone a fair chance to be good and proove their worth (regardless of religious affiliation) inorder to enter heaven.
All this is in my opinion.

Euni	Posted May 21st, 2009 at 8:54AM Did He say that? No, He said that through Christ Jesus only can anyone be saved. Just stop justifying yourselves by guessing and making things up- it's all in His book, and it's not even that hard to understand. Sheesh. Rated: +2Vote for this!
Neveres	Posted May 21st, 2009 at 7:32AM God was speaking about the Gentiles. Up until Jesus died, it was the Jews who were called by the name of Jehova, or by the name that no one would pronounce. This is not opinion. Jesus came as the Saviour of Israel, and the Jews were amazed to realize that He died for all of mankind also. After He died and rose again, salvation became available to anyone that wanted to give themselves to Him. God came to earth as a person, Jesus, and died because of my sin, and if I admit I am a sinner and deserve the death He died, and I am forgiven and can know I will be with Him in the world to come.

rob94qwerty	Posted May 21st, 2009 at 5:49AM Who said he will only save Christians? He will give an equally fair chance to everybody to go to Heaven...i think Rated: +1Vote for this!
GoldenArrow	Posted May 21st, 2009 at 7:28AM Please consider that there may be no God, and so you don't need to worry about whether or not He will be saving or not saving anyone. It might also be good to remember that there are millions of otherwise nice people of different faiths - eg Jews or Muslims, who also think that their God will exclude Christians, and all just because the Christians happened to be born into the wrong family (vast majority of people get their religious faith from their parents). You can't all be right - maybe you're all wrong? Rated: +1Vote for this!
