Is this Christian Universalism? Azadeh's Question:
“It is a fact that many of our Christian brothers and sisters think they are saved because they have come to believe in Jesus, even though in reality they are clearly following false/man made teachings and traditions (like the Pharisees and Jews) ... A dear friend of mine from the Lutheran church I first was baptized in, after much harsh rebuke and heartache that he expressed towards me, after he realized he could not change my mind about Adventism (he clearly thinks Adventism is a heretic cult, as he said, like Jehovah’s Witnesses), he said to me (I could see he was comforting himself): "You know dear Azadeh, it's ok, when you got baptized, you stepped into the "Jesus-train", and this train will take you to the right destination." Now, there is absolutely truth in this statement, but he said it to reassure himself that I was not lost even though (to his frustration) I now was choosing to believe in the Sabbath, Ellen White as the prophet of God, and all the other "heresies" of the Advent Church.”
