IS THERE ANOTHER WAY TO HEAVEN?

To the Reader:

One may be an evangelical but not necessarily an authentic, genuine & true believer in the LORD Jesus Christ. This is true to millions of evangelical protestants all over the world who are not truly saved by grace (Ephesians 2:8-9); and redeemed and justified by the BLOOD of the Lamb of God (Romans 5:9); born again by the Spirit of the Living God (John 3:1-7).

Many are in truth and in fact mere professors and not possessors of the great salvation that the LORD has made available to all through JESUS CHRIST ALONE (John 14:6). And so, multitudes are deceived, believing their own way of salvation that literally are bringing them straight to hellfire.

One may even be a baptized member of an organized Christian church such as The Wesleyan, The FourSquare, The Baptist, The Assembly of God and many other Christian churches and fellowships. Such membership does not guarantee one's salvation, for salvation is of the LORD Jesus Christ Alone!

Without Jesus Christ as one's personal Savior and LORD, such a person is literally on his way to hell even the Lake of Fire and it is not the will of the God of Holy Scriptures. The truth of the matter for salvation, is that the LORD said in Matthew 7:14 "and few there be that find it". Meaning that millions are going to be unpleasantly surprised, to say it very mildly, thinking that they are going to heaven but actually are doomed and will be damned to hell by their refusal to BELIEVE ON THE LORD JESUS CHRIST ALONE!

The Pure Gospel of the LORD Jesus Christ is an all exclusive means of Salvation. All other ways of salvation is a futile endeavor of finite, puny man to try and reach Almighty God through his own efforts. Such is assured of HIS PLACE in hell even the Lake of Fire (Rev. 20:10; 21:8 KJBible) for it is unacceptable to the God of Holy Scriptures.

SO BEWARE OF APOSTATES AND BE FOREWARNED!

“CONSERVATIVE EVANGELICAL” HYPOCRISY
(Friday Church News Notes, March 25, 2011, www.wayoflife.org fbns@wayoflife.org,) –

Some of the “conservative” evangelicals are criticizing Rob Bell in a pretty strong way. John Piper tweeted,
“Good bye, Rob Bell.” Albert Mohler, Jr. of Southern Baptist Seminary described Bell’s view as “Velvet Hell.” I’m glad to see a bit of backbone among some evangelicals and a level of doctrinal conviction that would drive them to actually name
the name of a false teacher, but it appears very hypocritical at the same time.

The view that atheists and pagan religionists might be saved without submitting to Jesus Christ is not new. Billy Graham has been saying it for decades, but I don’t recall any outcry from the evangelical world, including from Graham’s own denomination, the Southern Baptist Convention.

In an interview with McCall’s magazine, January 1978, entitled
“I Can’t Play God Any More,” Graham said: “I used to believe that pagans in far-off countries were lost—were going to hell—if they did not have the Gospel of Jesus Christ preached to them. I no longer believe that. … I believe that there
are other ways of recognizing the existence of God—through nature, for instance—and plenty of other opportunities, therefore, of saying ‘yes’ to God.”

In 1985, Graham affirmed his belief that those outside of Christ might be saved. Los Angeles reporter David Colker asked Graham: “What about people of other faiths who live good lives but don’t profess a belief in Christ?”
Graham replied, “I’m going to leave that to the Lord. He’ll decide that”
(Los Angeles Herald Examiner, July 22, 1985).

In 1993, Graham repeated this doctrine in an interview with David Frost.
“And I think there is that hunger for God and people are living as best they know how according to the light that they have. Well, I think they’re in a separate category than people like Hitler and people who have just defied God, and shaken their fists at God.
… I would say that God, being a God of mercy, we have to rest it right there, and say that
God is a God of mercy and love, and how it happens, we don’t know” (The Charlotte Observer, Feb. 16, 1993).

In an interview with Robert Schuller in May 1997, Graham again said that he believes people in other religions can be saved without consciously believing in Jesus Christ.
“[God’s] calling people out of the world for His name,
WHETHER THEY COME FROM THE MUSLIM WORLD,
OR THE BUDDHIST WORLD, OR THE CHRISTIAN WORLD OR THE NON-BELIEVING WORLD,
THEY ARE MEMBERS OF THE BODY OF CHRIST BECAUSE THEY'VE BEEN CALLED BY GOD.
THEY MAY NOT EVEN KNOW THE NAME OF JESUS but they know
in their hearts that they need something that they don't have, and they turn to the only
light that they have, and I think that they are saved, and that they're going to be with us in heaven”
(television interview of Billy Graham by Robert Schuller, broadcast in southern California, Saturday, May 31, 1997).

What is Rob Bell saying today that Billy Graham hasn’t been saying for more than 30 years?

HUNGERING FOR THE WORD OF GOD

The Voice of the Martyrs magazine tells of two Hmong Christians who walked more than 500 kilometers to meet some missionaries to get some Bibles in their language. Their journey had taken more than three weeks. They were wearing rubber sandals; their faces were burned by the hot sun. They visited for an hour, put the Bibles in their bags, went outside, looked both ways and started their journey back to their village. A round trip journey on foot that took more than six weeks and covered over 1000 km. I wonder where they found food, where they slept, so many things go through my mind but most of all I think of so many of our people with every blessing on earth at their hands and their Bibles seldom opened and read.
