Zone1 Some Christians say that only their kind can be saved and nobody else!

I cannot believe that.

Do you?

I cannot believe that.

Do you?

Saved from what?

 

[Zebra]

Saved from what?

just saved, as the term goes.
Jesus saves, nobody says from what

 

[Zebra]

is it a difficult question?

I cannot believe that.

Do you?

He that ensures to the end shall be saved

I believe that different denominations believe they are the only ones who will be saved.

Do I care if other sects believe they are the only ones who will be saved?

Not much. Let them believe what they choose to believe. I am comfortable with what I believe.

Your question is kind of duplicitous. Because this is fact:
John 14:6 Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

Is Heaven just for Christians? ^ Jesus thinks so. That applies to everybody that accepts the gift Christ offered us. So, if a Muslim converts to Christianity, it makes him a Christian. So, the offer is for everybody. It is for Christians...

Romans 10:12 For there is no difference between Jew and Greek: The same Lord is Lord of all, and gives richly to all who call on Him

Oh. I thought that the question was about specific denominations that's why I answered no.

are there then special heavens for Muslims, Jews, etc?

It is. You are both right.
Catholics say you must be Catholic.
JWs, and Mormons, I'm not sure.

JESUS SAID, $No man can come to the Father except thru Me.

I follow Jesus

The "heaven" without God

who is john - where is the signed, notarized document they preserved signed by jesus to authenticate their quote as such a quote requires - etched in stone by jesus on the four corners of earth for all to see.

a forgery madeup in the 4th century as other such declarations to preserve their religion when corroborated by the self serving congregations, desert dwellers willing to disregard their own self determination by the comfort and certainty of lies and deception to gain their unearned rewards. christianity, read their book and be saved a bestseller indeed.

What's odd is that Carl answered your question, and you just skipped right over it. Makes me think the question wasn't sincere...

Preserved??? They destroyed everything Christian they could get their hands on for hundreds of years. Including the Christians. But Jesus predicted that His word would never pass away, and here we are putting His words on the internet.

 

[Foxfyre]

I cannot believe that.

Do you?

I absolutely believe some Christian groups or those calling themselves Christian believe they'll be the only ones in Heaven. Christians have joked about it at least since I was a kid.

Most Christians don't believe that.

And what does it matter? Allow each group its beliefs and tend to what is truth for you. That is what Jesus and his desciples taught.

Paul's instructions to the Romans in Romans 14:

". . .The one who eats everything must not treat with contempt the one who does not, and the one who does not eat everything must not judge the one who does, for God has accepted them. Who are you to judge someone else’s servant? To their own master, servants stand or fall. And they will stand, for the Lord is able to make them stand.

One person considers one day more sacred than another; another considers every day alike. Each of them should be fully convinced in their own mind. Whoever regards one day as special does so to the Lord. Whoever eats meat does so to the Lord, for they give thanks to God; and whoever abstains does so to the Lord and gives thanks to God. For none of us lives for ourselves alone, and none of us dies for ourselves alone. If we live, we live for the Lord; and if we die, we die for the Lord. So, whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord. For this very reason, Christ died and returned to life so that he might be the Lord of both the dead and the living.

You, then, why do you judge your brother or sister[? Or why do you treat them with contempt? For we will all stand before God’s judgment seat. It is written:

“‘As surely as I live,’ says the Lord,
‘every knee will bow before me;
every tongue will acknowledge God.’” So then, each of us will give an account of ourselves to God.

Therefore let us stop passing judgment on one another. Instead, make up your mind not to put any stumbling block or obstacle in the way of a brother or sister. . ."

Well here's the thing, Good 'ol Carl is a bit of a whack-job so unless he quotes me I don't ususally bother reading his crap.
