I think we can all agree that doctrinal knowledge, in and of itself, isn't synonymous with salvation. Nor does one's comprehension of it and/or being able to articulate it, even to great depth, mean that the individual is saved.

Perhaps I'm a little dense, but your reply didn't seem to address this issue of the "line". The questions are: 1) Is it necessary for someone to comprehend and embrace doctrinal truths in order to be saved? 2) If so, what is and how much of that doctrinal truth is necessary for a person to know to be saved? That is why I asked the question above, can one be saved by simply professing, "I believe in Jesus", without having any knowledge of the person and/or work of Christ? And what about the knowledge of God, sin, repentance, judgment, etc.? Can a person be ignorant of any/all of those things and still be saved?

And lastly, it appears that you hold that one is saved through, by, or because of some "experience" <<"once they do experience salvation, they're saved">>. So, what is this "experience" that brings about salvation? Is this experience totally void of the intellect? [Linked Image]
