The Saved, the Secular and the Lost

Assuredly Christians have an eternal life with God to look forward to even as they may be troubled by nefarious secularists that believe godless atheism is the best thing since a computer chip. Christianity itself is a little troubled by the lack of upgrades to the delivery of the gospel from that essentially unchanged since the era of feudalism when so many were illiterate. Today of course many Americans have been programmed by the broadcast media and have something of a functional philosophical and theological illiteracy.

 One of the sad points of the Obama era was that there are those with the wrong belief that unrepentant L.G.B. church goers are saved. There is no mistake that aberrant sex beyond that of heterosexual is sin. In order to be acceptable to God and His Son at the minimum one must cohere with the will of God as expressed in the Holy Bible/gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. That means that one cannot be an active, unrepentant homosexual. If one is then one is most likely not saved, for one never had faith and grace enough to quit that sin.

I would think however that if one were saved at some point and truly denounced all sin, even if one slipped at some point later and committed sin yet and repented that, they would still be alright. Being reprobate though; actually denying that sin clearly enough defined in the Bible is OK. and acceptable to God and the Lord Jesus Christ, and believing that one is saved seems silly. One might as well be a Muslim and consider praying five times a day in a supine position facing their neighborhood Wal-Mart is OK. Muslim practice.

Eternity is a deep game. Some cosmological physicists regard the Universe as having been created from nothing; the void and perhaps its zero-point energy. With historical evidence for evolution they regard the point about God as res judicata; such superficial philosophical, theological and even scientific reasoning makes them hardened in their faithlessness and nthus they become malevangelizers of the word of oblivion. Eternity is a long time without time however existing trancendently beyond the physics of the mortal coil. True faith shall have its just reward while so mayhaps, that which is true wickedness.
