Summary

This is just weird. Are people in trouble merely for picking the wrong religion? Are they saved by magical magicky prayers? Here's my response. 0:00 intro 0:18 to SKIP intro This clip is from a recent interview I did on Alisa Childers' channel.

You're watching one of a series of videos where Elisa Childers and I respond to 23 progressive Christian claims,

0:07.0

kind of like a progressive Christian manifesto that was written by Ragamuffin TV.

0:11.9

We deal with these claims, some good, some bad, some ugly, and I'm hoping

0:16.4

that this helps you to think biblically. Let's go to number seven. You're not going to

0:21.8

hell just because you didn't pick Christianity before you die

0:25.4

anymore than you're going to heaven because you set a magical sinners prayer at

0:30.5

church camp. I've been preaching that for years. I know right? I'm like read my book. I wrote that in my book. I completely agree. Yeah. So it's sad though that that's the that's the perception of

0:45.9

salvation isn't it? Yeah yeah so here's a thought there's a couple of

0:50.9

possibilities that they think this is an objection to what many Christians are saying right?

1:30.9

to hell because you didn't pick Christianity. Well, that's true.

1:32.7

It's not just about picking, it's about sin.

1:34.7

The cause of me going to hell is sin.

1:36.3

The rescue for me coming, being saved from hell is faith and trust in Christ.

1:41.5

It's his cross that saves me but the cause and the

1:44.6

rescuer are important to differentiate. Sin is the cause Jesus is the

1:49.2

rescue. Faith in Christ is my part in that which just means I didn't do anything to earn it.

1:54.0

Yeah. They're acting like lack of faith in Christ is the reason I'm being condemned.
