I disagree. I have it. I haven't maintained it. I still believe in God. I don't go to church, I pray when I remember to. What would I need to do to lose it?

Well, if you don't reinforce your faith by practicing it, then there is a possibility of something happening which shakes your faith.
And........it doesn't have to be a major event either.
And many, many people were not so blessed - I just don't think it's logical to think that if they didn't get that gift, they're going to hell.

The Gospel of Inclusion is the exciting and liberating news that in the finished work of the cross, Jesus redeemed the entire world to God from the cosmic and organic sin imposed upon it by Adam, the original man. In effect, the world is already saved, they just don't know it; and, unfortunately, most Christians don't believe it. First Timothy 4:9-10 says, "...we have put our trust in the living God who is the Savior of all men, and especially those who believe." Jesus did not just die for Christians, He died to redeem, reconcile, and ultimately save the Cosmos.
Jesus was not a Christian, He was a Jew. God, however, is Spirit and cannot be confined exclusively to any particular religion including Christianity. He's not Jewish or Christian or Hindu or Buddhist; yet, He is all of that if we want or need Him to be, while at the same time, none of it conclusively, because He can't be and, in fact, is not limited to a person's or culture's perception of Him.
He loves everybody, He understands everybody, and He has a covenant with everybody-again, whether they know it or not.
Every human being in the history of the planet was created in the image and likeness of God. Anything else is an impersonation. God sees Himself in everybody, in every belief system, in every icon, perhaps even the devil. The devil can't subsist on his own. He came from God, has a specific assignment, and carries it out well.
