Free For all - Open Discussions and DebatesI am confusedThis is why even with faith as a standard, man is without excuse. What other faith-based teaching in the world can compare to that as the gospels? God coming down in human flesh and dying for us? No other faith can compare. Whether it is faith in any other religion, or faith in science, or whatever. And when I say faith I am talking from a tangible view. Intangibly speaking, all men are still accountable to God, because all of us have been given some light through our conscience (some more than others). But according to Christ, the more you respond to the light you have, more will be given to you. The more you rebel against what light is revealed to you, your heart will be hardened [Mark 4:24-25, Luke 8:17-18]. This can even go to a person living in a tribe that has supposedly never heard of the gospel. This person might not have ever heard of the name Jesus, but he/she atleast knows that certain things are wrong. If they rebel against what they know, that person's heart will be hardened. If they respond to whatever light they have and do what is right, God will reveal more to that person. Romans 2 even teaches that in the Old testamnet, those who did not have the law that God gave to Israel, still knew the law through their conscience. Therefore, there were Gentile believers in the OT eventhough they never saw the miracles of God that Israel saw. |
