Fair enough.
Don't you?
Not in those terms. I don't pray that I won life's lottery.
Or would you rather not be one of the elect?
Assuming eternity has a lottery, I would prefer to win it.
BTW, what have you done to earn your salvation?
Well, I must confess that I am in a period of flux, religiously speaking, but I would answer with "accepted Christ as my saviour".
(Romans 9:15 KJV) For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.
Who determines whether or not you will enter into the Kingdom of God?
You?
Well, I must confess that I am in a period of flux, religiously speaking, but I would answer with "accepted Christ as my saviour".
You EARNED your salvation by accepting Christ????
Or did you simply confirm your salvation (and your status as one of the elect) when you received Christ?
