EVERYBODY will come before God.
And he will simply look to see if your name is written in the Book Of Life.
There won't be no lawyers. No judge Judy.
No one will be able to present their case.
It's simple either a persons name is in the Book or its not. For those who are not, every thought, every action, every attitude, will be exposed for what it truly is/was. There will be no laying on the mercy of the court. That is out here in life.
A person either chooses the atoning work of Christ and that alone, or they are condemned for eternity.
You seem to be projecting an awful lot into Protestants. But I'll stand before God, confident that my name is written in the Book. Based on NOTHING other than the redemptive work of Christ on the cross.
No church attendance.
No amount of prayers.
No amount of good deeds.
No following this dogma or that dogma.
You smugly assert what Protestants will do, thus projecting your real thoughts, that you yourself will brag to God about your belief and trust in Mary.
My confidence IS NOT in myself or my "beliefs", my confidence is in the promises of God in his Word and that he is faithful and true.
I'm going to be blunt and un PC here.
YOU
And EVERY other person on this thread are at a crossroad.
You are presented with the truth, that Christ ALONE, is the only way to God the father and His heaven. Trust in anyone or anything else, ie church, Mary, works is condemnation to hell.
Today, you have a choice.
Choose Christ ALONE.
Or choose your own way and go to hell.
There are no other choices and there are no other destinations.
Thumbs up.
Christ will not be impressed with being told, That's what Scripture says, but that's not what it means". You're right, no one but you and Jesus at which time Jesus said He will tell such folks, "I never knew you
have a nice day
