people are dying and going to hell ????? #2


Don't you all get me wrong, now, alright ?
This is not about Mr. Jones, it's about the doctrine.
I am sure Mr. Jones loves the Lord Jesus Christ as much as anybody who have received and known forgiveness, and that is not meant to be patronizing, or anything.
But the statement he made reflects the error in his doctrine.
You see, he probably did not mean ALL people, but maybe some people, or many people are going to hell.
The thing is, if he did not mean ALL people are going to hell, then the question begs to be asked, so how did those who are not going to hell avoid going to hell, and where are they going, when they die ?
Now, I am almost sure Mr. Jones will say, "through Jesus Christ's atoning and redemptive death at the cross, through His blood, by grace through faith" and all the standard answer, and therein lies the rub.
You see, that is true.
Whoever is heaven bound is heaven bound because Jesus Christ died in his place, and that is ENOUGH, but, if I understand the doctrine from which Mr. Jones' statement comes from, it is not really enough because the sinner MUST repent of his sin, MUST put his faith in Jesus or the grace which God wishes to grant and dispense is held back IF the sinner's faith is absent.
And then there is that question of how can one have faith to trust Christ ?
Paul says somebody MUST be sent out, in order for them who must hear the message to hear it, because, Paul says, "faith cometh by hearing and hearing, by the word of God".
Okay ?
So now comes the missionary, and Bob Jones University churns them out by the hundreds, and the reason people are going to hell today is because there is not enough missionaries out there in the fields ripe for harvest, therefore not enough of the gospel is reaching everybody and so people are dying and going to hell today.
Catcha'll later.
Gotta rest early today.
Tomorrow is a big day in church.
It's Union Meeting time for us at Columbia Primitive Baptist Church, and I hope to be able to post some pictures or videos.
God bless.
