Can we be saved without any personal knowledge of the Bible’s teaching?
Is it necessary to think clearly and precisely about such teaching?
Is God’s love such that no one will ultimately suffer the everlasting loss of body and soul?
These are very important questions; the answers we give to them will have temporal and eternal consequences for us. The first thing we need to know is, where we stand before God. J. C. Ryle is absolutely right when he says, ‘To understand our position in the sight of God is one step towards heaven.’
