The New birth comes after hearing/believing the gospel

Thats why God sent him the Gospel to inform him of who saved him. We know he was already saved and had faith in the True God, and worked righteousness. No man can do righteousness as he did unless born of God 1 Jn 2 29

If ye know that he is righteous, ye know that every one that doeth righteousness is born of him.
Cornelius worked righteousness before he ever met Peter with the Gospel #1 Acts 10:2,4


A devout man, and one that feared God with all his house, which gave much alms to the people, and prayed to God alway.

And when he looked on him, he was afraid, and said, What is it, Lord? And he said unto him, Thy prayers and thine alms are come up for a memorial before God.

#2 Acts 10:34,35


34 Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:

35 But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him.
Sorry, but God sent him the gospel that he might believe in Christ and, as a result, be saved.

Acts 11:14 (NASB 95) — 14 and he will speak words to you by which you will be saved, you and all your household.’
 
Did you read the post ? If you did, you just cant see the truth
Falsehood

Cornelius is clearly not saved before he hears from Peter

Acts 11:14 (NASB 95) — 14 and he will speak words to you by which you will be saved, you and all your household.’

You will be saved. Future tense shows Cornelius was not yet saved.
 
Once again, there is no evidence Cornelius had fully known and believed in Christ

And

Acts 11:14 (NASB 95) — 14 and he will speak words to you by which you will be saved, you and all your household.’

Scripture shows Cornelius's salvation is future tense.
Exactly
 
Yep, but that poster still imagines Cornelius was saved before he knew Christ.
Well he knew and loved and feard the True God, he was a Just man Acts 10 22

22 And they said, Cornelius the centurion, a just man, and one that feareth God, and of good report among all the nation of the Jews, was warned from God by an holy angel to send for thee into his house, and to hear words of thee.

Being made Just God would give him more light Prov 4 18

18 But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day.

You think the Just man here is lost or saved ?
