In response to anyone who asks us about why we claim to be Christians I respond by saying my priorities are concerning salvation in this life.
I think there are two issues about salvation. I have read the Gospel of St John many times, but all I gain is that as Christians we should only be concerned about eternal salvation. But what about salvation in this life, to be saved from pestilence,, disease, natural disasters, civil unrest and war?
Along with atheists our priority should not be the after-life. Good works in this life should be our priority.
