When we believe in Jesus, we abide in his doctrine and in his message.
If Jesus taught that there is eternal judgment of the sinner, and we say, "I don't believe that," then we really don't believe in Jesus. We can't believe in Jesus and not believe in the teaching of Jesus.Michael D: David, It would be interesting to see Dave H's response to these pronouncements.
Peace be with you.
