THE IMPLICATIONS OF TRUTH - PT. ONE


Sometimes we Christians make, or listen to statements without understanding the implications of what it really means. Here’s an example. I was with a group of believers last night, from several different churches, talking about missions. After our meeting someone said, “You know, there’s going to be a very last person saved.” He was correct. But what are the implications of this truth? Let’s think…
1. God will one day bring an end to salvation.
2. There will be, most likely, billions of people on earth unsaved at that moment.
3. This means God has determined who that last person is.
4. It also means God has determined the fate of the billions who will be unsaved on that day.
5. This means God determines who will be saved and who will not.
6. Therefore, the following biblical words literally mean what they say. (Chosen, elect, predestined, appointed, enabled)
7. This means “grace” is a free gift, and not activated by human choice.
8. This means the unsaved do not accept Jesus, He accepts us.

Great truth. Very logical conclusion and God is Logical, not confusing.
