Default Re: Last Question From Me Regarding Religions

The Lutheran tradition is somewhat fissiparous, doctrinal mileage may vary:

[ QUOTE ]
It would not make sense for them to have our religion because I think Jesus died for the people of Earth and it would not make sense for a planet far far away to have a savior here IMO.


[/ QUOTE ]

What about the trinity. Jesus is more than just the saviour, he is God. If we have multiple incarnations of God then the doctrine of the trinity would be compromised. This is contrary to the Lutheran confessions.

[ QUOTE ]
4. It would depend on if they became sinful and needed a savior, or if God made a better race that worshiped him and never fell into sin.

[/ QUOTE ]

Scripture states "Through one man sin entered the world".
Generally Kosmos or world is taken to mean creation.
When adam sinned creation fell. the imperfect fallen nature of creation should be as obvious to the christian, as to the rationalist critic. I have no reason to suspect that the material universe suddenly becomes less fallen when we leave earth. I suspect things still die, and eat each other etc. An unfallen race would require an unfallen creation.
