John 3:16 -18

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

Note:

The first part of theabove passagetells usabout how God sent his only begotten Son (Jesus Christ) into the world; that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Belief System - The basis on which beliefs are based

Statement

Now, what most people as a wholeor in general do not realizedis that our “Belief System” (the basis on which beliefs are based);must be based upon the God’s definition of beliefin order to qualify us as true believers in Christ Jesus?

Note:

The passage of scripturebelow shows the difference between the belief system of the “World” (People as a whole”) and manner in which the Lord God thinks

Isaiah 55:8

For my thoughts [are] not your thoughts, neither [are] your ways my ways, saith the LORD.

What does this scripture mean?

Answer:

The inhabitants of the “World” (People as a whole) do not think in the same manner as God thinks, nor is their“way” comparable to “His” (God’s) way.

Definition:

Way–A course of conduct or action; an individual or personal manner ofbehaving,

acting, or doing

Note:

Therefore, we must conclude that “Our” (Individuals or People as a whole) belief and/or manner in which we believe is not the sameas the Lord God,according to the scripture in the book of Isaiah 55:8.

Question

Is there an established age when the children of menare made accountable by the Lord for what they believe?

Answer:Yes

Statement

The Lord God has set and established an age of accountability when the children of men are made accountable for what they believe.

Statement

Now, the age of accountability for each person (Individual or People as a whole) may vary,because it is based upon the knowledge and understanding level of each person (Individual).

Note:

Furthermore, only the Lord God knows when he has determined that a person (People as a whole);shall be accountable for their actions and is expected to grasp and walk in the truth that was revealed unto them by his Spirit.

Statement

The bible declares that if a individual or people as a wholedo not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God; that they arecondemned already, because theyhavenot believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

Note:

Likewise, condemnation will also manifested within the conscious (soul) of the person (Individuals); which did not truly believe in the only begotten Son of God when they shall stand before the judgment seat of God
