The postings under this heading are entering dangerous terrain. Who are we
to decide when our loving God is acting "not loving" when He destructs an
unbelieving world, or unbelieving tribes, or unbelieving
people? Personally, I think, that a faithful Christian, a follower of
Jesus Christ Who died for the sins of those who accept Him as Saviour,
understands that this world will be destroyed because of human sin. And in
the past sinners were killed because of their sins. Not accepting that
truth means not accepting the Christian Bible, and thus not being a
Christian. There are some truths which are absolutely necessary to be
accepted in order to be called a Christian. We may differ about
interpretations, but denying the necessity of the dying of our Lord on the
cross for the sins of those who accept Him as Saviour is not one of
them. The reality of sin and the punishment for sin is basic for Christians.
