Salvation is given to anyone, anywhere in the world, that accepts Jesus free gift of forgiveness.
Stealing, lying, sex outside of marriage, homosexuality, and many other things are all sins?
Fantastic! ^_^ I didn't want to go to 'Heaven' after I die... seeing as I live it here on Earth
Quote:Now, I know that some will say "What about the person that never heard of Jesus?" and all I can respond, through faith, is that God said in the Bible that He has put the knowledge of Him and a persopns need for a Saviour in the heart of every living person and if a person acknowledges their sin and their need for a Saviour (which the Jews did before Jesus was born) then they are saved.
I know salvation is just great and all...
But I would never want to be 'saved' from my happiness

Pearls are Oyster shell... which is kind of like your fingernails.
And pigs are among the noblest and most intelligent creatures on this planet.
So that sums up what you've been doing wonderfully: you've been chucking nail filings at people smarter than you
I gave you one chance, little pimple... such a shame you get mad over being an asshole. Must be a right wonderful life... turning some shade of puce every time you look in a mirror or get a whiff of your own bullshit
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
