...then you do not REALLY believe in it."### is the most honest believer in ET I've met since I've been posting on boards like these, by the way. He actually believes his doctrine, bless him, and that I can respect. It also stirs deep compassion in my heart toward him, because I understand his torment. I've been there. I ACTUALLY believed in ET.
But do most advocates of ET really believe their doctrine?
Not unless they lose sleep over it, agonizing over the possiblity of it for their friends and loved ones (departed loved ones included)--as well as the possiblity of it for themselves.
Hey gang--
We have lots of unie Christians going about happily and blissfully--disguised as ET Christians--have you noticed?
In their daily lives they rest in the love of Jesus assuming that He will ALWAYS prove to be more reliable than they are. They only proclaim ET (or annihilationism) when they visit discussion boards like these.
Interesting, huh!
