HANSEN,
MY ANSWER IS TOO LONG FOR THIS LIST. IT INVOLVES MEN'S RESPONSE TO 4- LEVELS OF SEPARATE ENLIGHTENMENT SET FORTH IN THE BIBLE. THE SINNERS ARE WITHOUT EXCUSE BEFORE THE LORD. HOWEVER, OTHER PRINCIPLES COME INTO PLAY BEFORE A JUST GOD:
1. UNTO WHOM MUCH IS GIVEN.....THAT IS, DAVID MILLER HAS MORE OF A BURDEN TO WORK FOR JESUS THAN MY MENTALLY RETARDED BROTHER.
2. WE ARE NEVER PUNISHED FOR WHAT WE DON'T KNOW. IT IS LIKE THE LEGAL PRINCIPLE OF "MENS REA", FROM THE LATIN. YOU MUST INTEND TO SIN. THE BOOK OF JAMES CONFIRMS THIS, AS DID JESUS.
YES, SINNERS GO TO THE LAKE OF FIRE, EVEN IF THEY LIVE IN A JUNGLE, AND CANNOT HEAR BILLY GRAHAM ON SUNDAY.

P.S.
I WILL ENLIGHTEN YOU ABOUT WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS RE THE "4 LEVELS " SOME OTHER TIME. MAYBE DAVID HAS TIME NOW.
I WILL SAY THIS: HUBERT ALWAYS SAID THAT ANY PERSON WHO PLEADS THE CASE OF THE "IGNORANT SAVAGE IN THE JUNGLE" IS A SINNER, SEEKING TO ESCAPE A VERY HOLY GOD. THUS, I AM SUSPICIOUS OF YOU FOR ASKING!!!!! THAT IS A COMMON POINT MADE BY HEATHEN THAT WE PREACH BEFORE.
DAVID, YOU NOT ONLY HAVE THE "WOMAN PROBLEM" HEREON, BUT THESE MEN SEEM A QUART LOW IN THE CRANKCASE, IN MOST CASES.

DAVEH: Elsman.....does your below statement mean that you believe the billions who have lived and died without hearing even the name of Jesus, let alone the gospel, are condemned to hell.....the lake of fire?
