Default RE: church and hunting

I'm with PT all the way on this one.
There is ONLY ONE WAY...through Christ (and ASKING HIM - not just knowing about HIM). And yes, unfortunately there will be alot of folks that won't make it to heaven - be it they didn't ever ask Christ to be their saviour, or they were never told about him at all. That's why he commands us to spread the Gospel.

I think what gets lost alot is its not "religion" - its relationship. Just because you go to church DOESN'T mean you are headed to heaven. If you never asked HIM....you ain't going. You've got about as much chance of turning into a car by standing in a garage.

The bible says it all - either you believe it 100%, or you don't. We don't get to pick and choose what we want to believe - so it makes us feel good and justify what we do (to ourselves & others). The grocery store method doesn't work.

Now...does that mean that true believers are perfect? Ain't NO WAY....not even close. I screw up daily, as I'm sure most of you do too. Do I go to church EVERY Sunday....no. Most Sundays I do, and it is a high priority for me and my family. Do I follow everything in the bible to a T? I wish I could say I do. I try to do my best to adhere to HIS WORD....but alas, I am a human still - which means I can't.

Seek ye first the kindom ofheaven....I hope each of you do. In theBIG picture, that is ALL that really matters.
