[P-Marlowe]

It's now confirmed one doesn't have to be a believer to obtained salvation. In fact, people can emphatically state they are NOT believers and still be saved. Incredibly the author quotes all sorts of Catholic papers but never the scripture. Perhaps this is the true error.

And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. (John 3:14-18 KJV)

There you go, confusing the issue with scripture. You sola scriptura people are all alike. ;O)
