Since you have said three omnis why do you use four, do you believe there is one that's not an attribute, or have you included a fourth to suit your arguments.
Never did I refer to Omnipresence or even hint at it... you thinking that I did really emphasizes your incapability to successfully give a refutation.
Quote:The angels rebelled due to the fact they had a choice to believe God or believe evil, they chose evil and now have no chance at redemption, a high price for knowing God then rejecting Him.
...I agree..? Again, no refutation to be found!

It is not evident that burning bushes talk, that YHWH's booming voice is heard every now and again, that water can be split with a staff, that demons cause sicknesses and that life on earth is capable of surviving an entire 24 hours without the earth's rotation.
And no knowledge of these things grants salvation. These aren't necessary things to know. No knowledge grants salvation. Ever. The reason we have them recorded is because they are able to strengthen, but they themselves do not save.
Yes, agreed
hence why God is required to make the claims of Christianity true beyond doubt so that everyone has a chance at eternal life by then putting trust in this truth.Quote:'FallentoReason Wrote:I would suggest God do a little more than what he has, because the necessary knowledge for salvation sounds closer to science fiction than the everyday experiences we have with reality. Such an incompetent attempt at ensuring humanity knows the Absolute Truths of the Cosmos has lead to billions upon billions of souls roasting in eternal damnation simply because some of them never had the opportunity to know that the dubious events of 2000 years ago in a Jewish community were the reflection of absolute truths about reality and beyond, thus never giving them the chance at eternal bliss.
No knowledge grants salvation. Native Americans before Columbus still have a chance for salvation, as does all mankind.
How does that work?
