I do not know what is the point you are trying to make by [b]Matthew 7:13-14
The final scene of the salvation of mankind shows a number which no man could count:

From Jaywill:
"This restrictive passage is about the receiving of reward and not about the gift of eternal life and eternal redemption.
Everyone who calls upon the name of the Lord will be saved, believing in the heart that God reaised Jesus from the dead. That is the apostolic garuantee. "
What? Your contradicting yourself with this first line. The reward is eternal life and all that it implys.
And as usual with "Saved Ones" as yourself you still don't get this scripture. JUST calling on the name of the Lord is only the first step in gaining salvation according to many other scriptures but you fail to see those as "Saved Ones" always do. Nothing new there.
If just calling on the Lord was all it took to be saved then the New Testiment would only need to be one sentence long.
-Removed-Well in truth we're not in the same religion. We have nothing to do with so called Christian churches that will send it's members off to kill for their governments with their blessings, pledge allegance to that government and worship it's flag and even have that flag in their churches.
And ones who practice paganistic doctrines as well as holidays.
Refuse to do the work to the full that Jesus told his followers to do and not drum up excuses for not doing it.
Should I go on?
Jesus told us to BE NO PART OF THIS WORLD.........
So yes we are not part of this world's so called Christian religions who are only a token religion that Jesus condemns and that is deeply involved in this world.

I suspect you are trying to convince yourselves rather than others. If you were convinced in your own minds then you would be far more humble and self-confident rather than arrogant and insecure.

with citizens pledging allegance to a government established by God to
provide freedom of religion? Don't forget that you are a beneficiary of thia
American government you seem to despise.

Both Robbie and myself have started threads with subjects that are not even close to be major doctrines that we view differently then most, subjects such as the hope for the future that is available to us all if we only take seriously such subjects a our door to door ministry to help others learn of this wonderful hope.
But within just a couple responces from you guys the attacks and uncalled for language starts up again as usual.
I think the dislike for the simple work we do all over the world is hated by you guys that we could simply post " It's a beautiful day" and still the insults would fly..... Am I wrong?
I personally have given up on you guys and you all know who you are. Your hearts are cold and stubborn and want nothing to do with the light of the truth and condemn those who do.
I'm just hoping that there are some here at RHP who are honestly looking for the truth of God and wants to worship him with truth and our post might catch their interest. If so we would travel anywhere to study with them at our own expense and that's something none of you guys would ever do and you know it.

given you. The truth that you must call on the name of Yahshua to be
saved and that if you do not believe Yahshua is He, the God of Abraham
and the "I AM" of Moses, you will die in your sins.
