This thread is turning into a debate, and I am not going to "argue" with anyone about Christ. All of a sudden new rules and parameters have been set and people have been accused of ASSuming stuff. The Bible speaks for itself. For those who choose to design their own form of godliness or make up their own rules to live by, they can live with those consequences.
I am standing Titus 3.9 "But avoid foolish questions, and geneologies and contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain."

I am not surprised that my "foolish" question has gone unanswered. I was trying to gain an understanding but I guess to you and the others, there is only one true understanding--yours. And if it is questioned that means we are heathens, or have established our own form of Godliness and will face certain consequences."
It is exactly this attitude that causes people to begin questioning things (like why is probably more than half of the world deemed to be "unsaved" because they do not recognize Jesus as the son of God) and hesitant to talk about why. Dogma has always been the bane and divider of our world. It's even sadder that it is done in the name of God.
