Episode Synopsis

If God’s eternal judgment is coming upon our world, and the Lord Jesus Christ is mankind's only hope for salvation, the question is: Does there exist any secondary chance for forgiveness and eternal life for anyone who is never united to Christ in faith during their lifetime or dies with the guilt of some sin still on their record?  This episode carefully answers this question and evaluates the most common doctrinal assertions that curiously claim the answer is yes.  Scripture referenced: Genesis 1-3, Exodus 34:6-7, 1 Kings 18:17-30, Psalm 95:7-11, Isaiah 8:11-19, Isaiah 13:6-13, Isaiah 53:5, Jeremiah 7:18-20, 30-33, Jeremiah 19:4-5, Jeremiah 32:31-35, Matthew 7:13-14, Matthew 13:47-50, Matthew 24:4-14, 35-44, Matthew 25:31-34, 41, 46, Matthew 26:57-68, Matthew 27:20-23, Luke 1:15, Luke 16:19-31, Luke 23:43, John 3:3-10, John 5:28-29, John 8:24, John 10:7-9, 19-20, John 14:6, John 15:16, John 19:30, Acts 4:11-12, Acts 17:24-26, Acts 19:21-34, Romans 1:16-17, Romans 3:22-25, Romans 5:1-2, Romans 5:18, 1 Corinthians 3:11-15, Ephesians 2:1-10, Philippians 1:21-23, Philippians 3:1-11, 20-21, 1 Thessalonians 5:1-3, 2 Thessalonians 1:5-10, Hebrews 3:7-19, Hebrews 4:1-7, Hebrews 7:25, Hebrews 9:27, Hebrews 10:11-18, Hebrews 11:1, 2 Peter 3:7-12, Revelation 6:15-17.  Other sources referenced: Catholic Apocrypha; 2 Maccabees 12:39-46, Catechism of the Catholic Church; Article 12; Section 3; 1030-1032, catholicculture.org, catholic.com, catholiccompany.com, newadvent.org, Wikipedia.org
