Very good, Nishant. ... You seem here to accept the need for explicit belief in the Holy Trinity and the mysteries of the Incarnation for salvation. To me that's a major step ... in the right direction.
I've said this many times, yet one must admit the opposing view is not condemned. You say it is condemned, but that is on your own authority, which isn't any kind of authority at all.
This is ALL that SJB is saying, and yet Vatican II precisely teaches the "opposing view", and SJB rejects Vatican II, and all the modern theologians that teach the same.
He condemns Vatican II for teaching proposition two which he will not condemn, and he condemns all the "idiots", as he says he righteously calls them, because they believe in John 3:15 and all the dogmas on EENS and baptism, as they are written.
SJB teaches and defends and will not condemn the contradictory belief that ALL false BODers defend. They "say" they believe the truth (1st proposition), while simultaneously they teach and defend the opposite of that truth (2nd proposition):
I believe that to be saved, one must have at a minimum, explicit belief in the Christ and the Trinity.
I believe that one can also be saved who has no explicit belief in the Christ and the Trinity.
That's what that False BODer teaching is in the raw, unmasked and naked, that is what they are teaching, a contradiction.
SJB and all false BODers like him are mentally handicapped, they are progressivist and modernists on this subject. They teach/defend/do not condemn a direct contradiction.
