The question is not, were you saved by the, right, lifesaver but, were you saved? The question is not you must still be lost because you’re not a Christian but, have you been found? When we are found we, know, that we have been found no one needs to tell us and no further discussion, investigation or qualification is required. We have been issued a theological mindset that tries to make everything fit into its narrow frame of reference-a little like trying to fit a square peg into a round hole and if its doesn’t fit we bloody make sure it does or we pretend all things fit much like the flat earth thinkers did.

Many of us are more than a little disturbed when we find people outside the Christian faith who feel just as much found or even saved as we do, we then dismiss this as being totally improbable or even impossible and then we put our hands over our ears and sing as loud as we can ” I don’t want to hear this…la la la”. The implication being ” if they are right I must be bloody wrong”

Christianity is the only way! In saying this we are stating categorically that any other way is, no way at all.

We may not like or even agree that God is above and even beyond the confines of christianity we may believe that those who claim to have been saved or found can only be christian. What can be said is that when you are lost you know it and when you have been found you also know it. To suggest that you have not been saved or found because the lifeguard or search and rescue party were not from the only authorized source is to have missed the point.

Imagine a lifesaver being told that he could, only, rescue those within the limitations of the red flags and that the ocean, which is greater by far, was out-of-bounds. You cannot, pretend, to be saved or found knowing it is above that.

The question is simple, have you been found? not was it by the, right, authorised source?
