And we know ghandi rejected his only One who could save him from his sins- Jesus Christ as His Lord, God and Savior from sin.

As far as i know, Ghandi was not born again.

Jesus said you "must be born again"..

I hope that Ghandi gave God his Faith in Christ, at some point and was born again.
Perhaps he did it as he lay dying after he was shot.

Here is what happened Episkopos.

God made Adam, and Adam was "one with God".
This means that Adam and God ("God is A Spirit") were joined Spiritually as "one", exactly as Jesus said.. "I and my Father are One""".
When Adam sinned, this spiritual union, was broken.. and death entered.
And because of this, all of humanity has become the same "Adamic" spiritual situation, because we are all sinners, separated from God, Spiritually.

Jesus, is the 2nd Adam, who came to restore us back to God, Spiritually.
The term for being rejoined/restored to God, Spiritually, is : Born Again

Jesus said. "You must be born again", or you can't be restored into Born Again Spiritual Union with God who is "A Spirit".

Now, what is stopping all of humanity from being instantly restored into spiritual union with God?

A.) The same thing that ended Adams spiritual union with God.

= SIN

Sin, having sin, because you have sinned...... denies restored Spiritual Union with God.

So, God sent Christ to the Cross, to die for our SIN, which removes the spiritual barrier between our spirit and God's.
And by Jesus's Cross, we are "made free from sin", = forgiven, and God then able to birth us into Spiritual Union with Himself, = Born Again, Spiritually as "IN Christ", and "one with God".

If this never happens to you, then you will not go to Heaven when you die.

Final answer.
Luther was a frustrated monk. There is no going to heaven when you die. You are at a sunday school level where they teach santa claus. You have adopted a religion of death. Those who are reconciled to God "go to heaven" (translated into the kingdom realm of the Spirit) while they yet live....we have this treasure in earthen vessels.

You're in for a rude shock come judgment day...as many here. You have been warned countless times. Your blood is on your own head.

Episkopos,

Salvation is the "simplicity that is in Christ".

Its so simple....

= Adam lost Spiritual union with God. because he sinned , And we are born with that 'Adamic" situation...
Now, you have sinned, Episkipos.....we have all sinned... "and if we say we have not sinned, then the Truth is not in us".. And Some of us more than you, and some of us less then you.
And that SIN, is keeping God from having us as His Spiritual Son/Daughter...., = as Sin separates us from God, until its all forgiven.

See that?

Christ came here to deal with ALL our SIN< so that God can take us into His Spiritual Family, for eternity.
Salvation is literally that simple.
Jesus pays for all our SIN, and then God can birth us Spiritually into Himself, by the Holy Spirit.... and That is to be BORN AGAIN Spiritually.

"SAVED"

When we believe in our heart that we are a sinner, needing salvation, and we open our Heart to Christ, giving God our Faith in His Son, God accepts our FAITH...and then applies (imputes) Christ's shed blood and death unto us, and this becomes our redemption from all our sin.
"Jesus is the one time ETERNAL Sacrifice for our sin"
"God hath made Jesus to be our sin".
We are now made CLEAN, "made righteous"= by the Blood of Jesus and the Death of Christ.
And now being "made free from sin", God gives us a BIRTH in our Spirit, .= we are BORN AGAIN into the Spirit of God, by God's Holy Spirit.

This is to become "IN Christ"... "one with God".

= A CHRISTian

Episkopos....There is no other way to go to Heaven, and God wants us all to go to Heaven.

My role is to teach sound doctrine. Yours is to not tolerate that and instead preach a man-made salvation scheme based on iniquity.

My role is to teach sound doctrine.

Here is more for you.

The term "sound Doctrine", came from Paul.

2 Timothy 4:3.

So, all i teach is "sound doctrine", because all i teach is Pauline Theology.

Now Let look at the (Pauline) Doctrine of Salvation.

1.) Salvation is a Gift

2.) You can't earn it by law, commandments, water baptism, or trying to be like Christ.

3.) Salvation is to have been "made Righteoues" by only what Jesus has accomplished, both before the Cross and After.< (Resurrection).

Jesus came here as one of us, and fulfilled everything that we failed,= (Law, Commandments, Statues), and then "having fulfilled ALL", for us, in our place, He went to the Cross and was judged on the Cross for all our sin, so that we can be forgiven and "made free from sin".

When we hear what i just explained to you, we are "hearing the Gospel" . And when we Believe it, "faith comes by hearing"", and give God our faith in this GOSPEL, who Is Jesus our savior who died on the Cross, and has been resurrected,


Paul :

1 Corinthians

3 For I passed on to you as of first importance what I also received, that Christ died for our sins according to [that which] the Scriptures [foretold], 4 and that He was buried, and that He was [bodily] raised on the third day according to [that which] the Scriptures [foretold],

= then God takes our Faith in Christ, in this Gospel of our Salvation. .. and our "faith is counted as righteousness" by God.
And He then "imputes" "The Gift of Salvation"""... which means God forgives all our sin based on the Cross of Christ, and then births our spirit as BORN AGAIN, into His, and we become ""'in Christ""'...."made righteous",..."one with God".

All of this, is "Paul's Gospel", "the Gospel of the Grace of God"., and there is no other That God has given or will accept.

All others are cursed of God. (Galatians 1) also written by the Apostle Paul.

And ghandi was a lost sinner who rejected Christ as his Lord, God and Savior.

And yet you will be asking him for even a little water to quench your thirst in the future.

How so if Ghandi rejected Christ?

“Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” (John 14:6)
