Many sincere people believe that we must "accept Jesus" in this life or we are lost forever. However, there is another type of unbeliever-one who never had the opportunity to choose or reject God's way of life. Of how much sorer punishment, suppose you, shall he be thought worthy, who has trodden under foot the Son of God, and has counted the blood of the covenant, with which he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and has done despite to the Spirit of grace?Īmerican King James Version ×).
He that despised Moses' law died without mercy under two or three witnesses: But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries. If they shall fall away, to renew them again to repentance seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame.Īmerican King James Version × Hebrews 10:26-29 Hebrews 10:26-29 For if we sin willfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remains no more sacrifice for sins, And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come, Is there hope for the unbelieving person who rejected God's calling and spurned His way of life? No, a person who has knowingly refused God's calling and the way of life He reveals has only the lake of fire to look forward to, which will end his or her existence for eternity ( Hebrews 6:4-6 Hebrews 6:4-6 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost, We believe the Bible teaches that all will have a real chance through the often neglected doctrine of "resurrection of the dead" and God's judgment ( Hebrews 6:2 Hebrews 6:2 Of the doctrine of baptisms, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment. But considering the masses of humanity who have never even heard the name of Christ, many Christians have wondered if or how they would have a chance for salvation. God "desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth" ( 1 Timothy 2:4 1 Timothy 2:4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come to the knowledge of the truth.Īmerican King James Version ×).
