EXTRA-BIBLICAL EXCUSES?  BY STEVE FINNELL


When men stand before Jesus on Judgment Day will extra-Biblical excuses be accepted as a legitimate defense?

2 Thessalonians 1:7-9.......when the Lord Jesus will be revealed from heaven with His mighty angels in flaming fire, 8 dealing out retribution to those who do not know God and to those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus. 9 These will pay the penalty of eternal, destruction, away from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of His power,

BIBLICAL TRUTH

John 8:24 'Therefore I said to you that you will die in your sins; for unless you believe that I am He, you will die in your sins."

If men do not believe that Jesus is the Son of God and that He was sent to be the Savior of the world. They will die in their sins.

EXTRA-BIBLICAL EXCUSE

All men will be saved because it in the "The Book of Universal Salvation?"

BIBLICAL TRUTH

John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.

Those who do not believe in Jesus will not have eternal life.

EXTRA-BIBLICAL EXCUSE

If a preacher is on the way to tell a person of salvation, but that person dies before the arrival of the preacher, then, that person will be saved. The reference: : "The Book of Probable Belief." Another book by the same author is "What If They Did Not Have Time To Be Baptized?"

BIBLICAL TRUTH

Mark 16:16 He who has believed and has been baptized shall be saved; but he who has disbelieved shall be condemned.

Jesus said salvation follows belief and water baptized.

EXTRA-BIBLICAL EXCUSE

Water baptism has nothing to do with salvation. Ref: "The Book of Man-Made Doctrine on Water Baptism."

If men do not know God and do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus; will it be acceptable to use extra-Biblical excuses as a defense?

DOES JESUS KEEP A LIBRARY OF EXTRA-BIBLICAL CREED BOOKS, CATECHISMS, STATEMENTS OF FAITH, BIBLE COMMENTARIES, AND OTHER EXTRA-BIBLICAL BOOKS, WRITTEN BY MEN; AS HIS SOURCE FOR THE TRUTH?

WHEN JUDGMENT DAY ARRIVES WE WILL NOT BE JUDGED BY HOW WELL WE FOLLOWED EXTRA-BIBLICAL WRITINGS.
   
EXTRA-BIBLICAL EXCUSES WILL NOT BE AN ADEQUATE DEFENSE ON JUDGMENT DAY!
