if you go to Church, when you hear the Preaching and Altar Call [week after week], do you ever feel like when the Altar Call is given, you should go?
if you do, then you possibly need to get back to the Altar and not leave until you know for sure.

sad face?
you forget i was raised Reformed like you and know that your Doctrines are as equal to what i shovel out of my horse barns.
the OP would not ask if he/she was already feeling indifferent about their situation. that's clearly an indication God is working on them. so, i am encouraging them to take the next step.
where i suppose that YOU, have written them off as fuel for the flames of Hell.

♪ In the clearing stands a Christian and a fighter by his trade
And he carries the reminders of every glove that laid him down or cut him till he cried out,
"I am leaving, I am leaving!"
But the Christian still remains ♪
... kept by the power of God.

You didn't say it, you referred to it by stating how limited the number of actual Christians exist.
What percentage of professed Christians do you believe make up the narrow road?
80%?
90?
Scripture says Abraham's descendants will be as numerous as the stars in the sky and sands in the sea. So, that's a lot.
Odd that you say that about God's Word, but honestly I'm not surprised.
Unlike you, I was raised in the church of Christ, most definitely not Reformed.
Yes, throughout all of history, not all at the same time upon the earth.
If that were the case, Jesus would not have taught about the narrow road.
If you're trying to make the case that the vast majority of Christians alive today will go to heaven, you have zero understanding of the Bible.
a Doctrine made by humans is NOT God's WORDS, it is the HUMANS interpretation of God's Word.
the humans behind the Reformed Movement, clearly, DO NOT COMPREHEND God's Holy Word.
How many have there been so far? We still have a long, long way to go. I'm not the one here will a lack of biblical understanding.
coc, came out of the Restoration Movement.
it's the literal DEAD side to the Charismatic side of Pentecostal.
I haven't been in a coC church in a few decades. They and I don't agree on much.
both, coc and Charismatic Preach the same, stress similar views from the Bible, but the Praise and Worship is as opposite from night and day. it really is interesting, because, i never knew about them. discovered they claim to be Pentecostal. attended a Service and stood up and shouted Amen and was looked upon as if Satan entered the Congregation. i shook the dust off my feet and never set foot in another one of those Churches again.
The other side of the family is Oneness Pentacostal. Quite the mix. The one good thing I took from my days in the coC was learning to sing 4-part harmony.
i have Family that are also Oneness. yeah, i can see how that is a interesting combo indeed.
