NO, we are not. Even the demons believe -- and tremble.

No, the worst are in your own posts. But you haven't read those, have you?

Ah, so _that_ is your attitude;) THen things are looking up for you since the
man who is now Pope headed the office that _used_ to be known as "the
Inquisition";)

But back to the point: even that Church that is somewhat well, 'notorious' for
beingt quite a stickler for correct doctrine, with all those Ecumenical
Councils, even condemning as heretics men who died at peace with the Church, has
also _long_ insisted that correct doctrine alone saves NO ONE. And we do so on
good Gospel ground, namely, Mat 25:31-46.

Now I know dispensationalists will rationalize this away, saying it applies NOT
to the Last Judgment, but to Christ's gathering of the Gentiles, but this is an
example of how bad doctrine deceives a man into acting _against_ his own
salvation.

Correct doctrine will not save you. But bad doctrine can destroy you.
