ursus 137 wrote:The consecration of honest doubt is an honored Western tradition, going back to the ancient Greeks and continuing to the present day. This stance reflects the empirical fact that a person (any person) can be wrong at one time or another. I concede that I may commit errors in many aspects of life. Is this characteristic of an arrogant person? No, it is not. Arrogance is from those who do not concede the possibility of their own error.
What has philosophy, especially Greek philosophy have to do with Christianity?
Matthew 14:29-33
29 And He said, "Come!" And Peter got out of the boat, and walked on the water and came toward Jesus. 30 But seeing the wind, he became afraid, and beginning to sink, he cried out, saying, "Lord, save me!" 31 And immediately Jesus stretched out His hand and took hold of him, and said to him, "O you of little faith, why did you doubt?" 32 And when they got into the boat, the wind stopped. 33 And those who were in the boat worshiped Him, saying, "You are certainly God's Son!" NAS
Matthew 21:21-22
21 And Jesus answered and said to them, "Truly I say to you, if you have faith, and do not doubt, you shall not only do what was done to the fig tree, but even if you say to this mountain, 'Be taken up and cast into the sea,' it shall happen. 22 "And all things you ask in prayer, believing, you shall receive." NAS
Doubt is the enemy of living a faithful life since doubt results in questioning the promises of God.
The fact you believe in universal salvation calls your knowledge of the Bible into question, which calls your assurance that you are a Christian into question. If you don't know what the Bible teaches how do you know you are a Christian?
