    Can non-Christians be saved? (for liberal Christians)

    I read some of Luther's writings, but I don't remember reading that he suggested that, but I never read all his works. hedrick, I agree that Jesus seemed more concerned that people would accept his message and live apropiately for the Kingdom, but some scriptures seem to suggest that for God to...

    Can non-Christians be saved? (for liberal Christians)

    I also believe in this bekkylin, but I think some scriptures imply that justice is more retributive, because it is common to see in the Pauline epistles and also in the Gospel of St. John that those who do not believe in Jesus are under the "wrath of God."

    Can non-Christians be saved? (for liberal Christians)

    I address this questions to brothers and sisters who are liberals, do you believe that people who don't follow Christianity and don't believe in Jesus (Eg: Muslims, Hindus, Buddhists, Agnostics, Atheists, Baha'is, Animists Jews, etc.) can be saved Even if they never believe in Christianity? Or...

    Theodicy and the Holocaust

    If this "evolution" that you are talking about is the scientific theory of evolution, sorry to say but you are wrong, the theory of evolution isn't a religious belief but a scientific theory that explains the diversity of life on earth. I think you are confusing the "Social Darwinism" with...

    Theodicy and the Holocaust

    Thanks Philo, and I'm sorry if I was rude to posts 86 and 88, I just wanted to know your thoughts when I asked some questions about Divine Justice and Mercy. And with that, my intention is not that you hit the points or I want you to say and hitting, but just know how you interpret such verses...

    Theodicy and the Holocaust

    It's not that I believe that Zechariah says anything about modern Israel, but I have heard some Christian brothers say that Zechariah 12:3-6 is a reference to modern Israel and its military might. Ephesians 2:4-5, Psalms 86:15 and 1 John 4:8 for example. What do you think of these verses, Philo?

    Theodicy and the Holocaust

    Sorry for continuing to contest, but do you think non-Christian Jews are still under the judgment of the law and that they continued to suffer until "Recognizing the Lord Jesus as Messiah"? Do you also think that the present state of Israel is what God said in the book of the prophets like...

    Theodicy and the Holocaust

    And how robust can it be to the opinion that twentieth-century Jews were killed because of a curse of the old covenant?

    Theodicy and the Holocaust

    Sorry Philo, I think some of these things are pretty painful. In a Theological sense there is none that does good according to St. Paul, in my opinion this is the concept of man's depravity, but I don't think Jews were executed just because they were sinners and because they made mistakes in the...

    Theodicy and the Holocaust

    I have read the Old Testament books, but very superficially, I have never done a thorough and detailed study of the OT (so there are a lot of concepts that I'm not familiar with). In fact, I don't even know what to think about the spiritual components of the Holocaust, but if it's to say...

    Theodicy and the Holocaust

    Quid, I completely forgot that Leibniz lived at the time ofthe Thirty Years War :sorry:, and that was a horrible scenario in 17th century in Europe, but having been a contemporary of the Thirty Years War, I think he remained quite optimistic when he said: "the best of all world possible"...

    Theodicy and the Holocaust

    Actually since and 2017 @2PhiloVoid has pointed me to this Dostoevsky's work and other readings, but I haven't read it yet. It's time for me to follow these recommendations. I think I agree with everything you said, Silmarien, but the question that always came up was why didn't God create the...

    Theodicy and the Holocaust

    Indeed, it should be common for Leibnitz to think such good and optimistic things, since he did not live in a scenario of war, disaster, calamity and poverty, I think the structure of this Leibnizian thinking doesn' t allow difficulties, I have read this for a long time ago Leibniz's phrase, I...
