Predestination And Free-Will

What About The Sin Of Unbelief?

 
Some people who claim that man has a free will to accept Christ are also saying that the only sin that keeps a person out of heaven is the sin of unbelief. That idea probably comes from this verse:
 

John 8:24 – “I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not.”

 
This verse is certainly true in what it… Continue reading

Predestination And Free-Will

What Does The Bible Teach About Justification?

 
What exactly did Christ accomplish at Calvary? Did He just open the door to heaven for everyone as Catholicism teaches? Did He make it “possible” for all men to be saved?
