Posted by Lynn on 2/6/2007, 7:09 pm, in reply to "Re: Membership of the One Body" Members of the church which is His body are sealed, after: -hearing the gospel of our salvation If someone has no knowledge of the hope of His calling, but rather puts faith in the rituals, decrees, and commandments of men, are they really "saved"? I have met many who love their religion and say they "accept" the Lord as their savior, but are full of scorn and even anger when presented with the truth of the mystery or even something as basic as truth concerning the mortal soul. They take great comfort in being surrounded with others who are equally blind. If someone is truly a member "of His body, of His flesh, and of His bones", why would they not be given knowledge? I agree that there is one sphere of blessing for all believers today. My real question is, are "all these people" really part of the new creation if they are still in darkness concerning our hope and many other key truths? God is more than able to give light to those who put their faith in Him.
