What is required to be saved? We know that Jesus did all the work on the cross to provide salvation for us, but how much knowledge does a person need to know to be saved? There is a term in theology called "Inclusivism." People who hold to this view point believe that a person can be saved through general revelation. This idea states that if a person goes outside and says "what a beautiful creation, there must be someone who created it," that is enough knowledge to save them. As long as there is faith in God, that alone can save them.
In this episode we discuss the problems with Inclusivism. We believe that a person cannot be saved without the knowledge of the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. We believe that no one is going to be saved unless they are a part of the elect, and if they are the elect, God will be able to get the gospel to them. "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." Romans 10:13

On today’s show we went back to an old standby, Pete’s Major Dickerson. It is a great blend when you’re in a pinch. It can be found in most of your big blue box stores.
It is always our hope to get the Gospel out to as many people as possible and you can help us by sharing the show. Word of mouth is the greatest way we will get the show out to the masses. Thank you.
Please pray for us, as we are praying for you.
