For this debate, I need you to answer each of these questions in order.
1. Is God perfectly fair and just?
2. If God is not perfectly fair and just, does that mean God is by definition imperfect?
3. Does everyone have an equal chance in getting into heaven?
4. If everyone does not have an equal chance in getting into heaven, is God still perfectly fair and just?
God, justice, fairness and perfection

And do we have people today like the apostles doing miracles in the name of Jesus that would make one believe? Why are you comparing now to back then?marco wrote:You didn't for me. It is utterly clear that the apostles were told to go into all the world and preach; those who don't believe will be damned.
As I said, Mark 16:16 is considered suspect.marco wrote:It is further added:
"And these signs shall follow them that believe; in my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with tongues; they shall take up serpents; and if they drink a deadly thing it shall not hurt them; and they shall lay hands on the sick and they shall recover."
One would wonder why anyone would want to pick up a deadly serpent in the first place. This is an exercise in rubbish. Given these verses are nonsensical it is safe to assume that there is no truth in Mark 16:16.
