Originally posted by DoctorScribblesYes, unless of coarse they die on the Sabbath. After all, it would be a sin to open those pearly gates on the Sabbath.

He tells them to inherit the land. God tells them that they are a favored nation. He tells them to kill people. That's a pretty wide swath of choseness.

doesn't even the ot distinguish between the chosen of god and jews.
adam wasn't a jew. abel wasn't a jew. seth wasn't a jew. abraham wasn't a jew. then we've got his offspring. was isaac a jew? not mentioned. was jacob a jew? god did change his name to israel, and he did have at least twelve sons, 11 of who ...[text shortened]... so again, why should any race be given special priviledges concerning going to heaven?

I hope God is more tolerant in his views of who goes to Heaven. There are too many people who aren't Christians that I hope get to Heaven.
Originally posted by Big MacI believe that Christ died for my sins so that I may have eternal life. I believe that Christ rose from the dead and is seated at the right hand of God. That is the bedrock of my faith and I do proclaim it loudly. The rest of it are the things that I am not sure of and may never be sure.

if jesus is the only way, why would god be more tolerant. tolerance doesn't = exclusivity. it can't.
stand on the bed rock of your faith and proclaim boldly what you believe. you will take flack, but at least be consistent. be well.
