Do you assume I am saying that amigo?

Would you like to define your understanding of Paul's gospel?

You call it a false thought because it doesn't fit your paradigm F2F. Isn't that true? Have you at any stage of your walk questioned your paradigm?.....maybe modified it or has it never changed? Don't you think Jesus rattled the paradigm of those who concluded that the only way to get God's...

'inerrancy' or 'errancy' requires defining. One can say the earth is flat and who can argue with you if you're in Kansas but you'd probably have a hard time convincing the folk in Switzerland. Understanding that definition is contingent to context hopefully does away with useless and...

the opportunity is on its way!

dear wynnie, have you counted the times your reference to 'I' is made above in these few statements?

or could it be that one's assumptions need to be rewritten.....just like the guys on the road to Emmaus? :crossword:

:phew:o_O

When we have an erroneous understanding of God we interpret any coke bottle thrown out of an aircraft as something other than it is. Questions are then asked from the vantage point of that faulty understanding. Arguments develop that in themselves are objectively pointless. The question arises...

Yes, the OT prophets definitely had a view of God that was limiting for them. In spite of centuries of God trying to communicate himself they misunderstood. It took Jesus to clarify the misconceptions. He presented a picture of the character of God that revealed a new reality.

F2F....have you noticed, you are making regular accusations throughout this discourse? I don't think this has even occurred to you ....and I say that kindly. :)

There's been an edit on that section....I've added to the list :)

my dear, how can I not read that as a projection? :)

I will say it again, perhaps plainer, The Gospel is about God's activity in Jesus. We are commissioned to share the Gospel. The Gospel is not about a human response ie, believing, baptism, the Lord's supper, sabbath keeping etc Sharing that which God has done in Jesus for humanity is...

Making lite of it? not at all! Approaching it with a liberty and a freedom the Johnny tight shorts find threatening. :)

Because they choose to. Judas become a type. He was included in the chosen but opted out.....resulting in his suicide.

I perceive you prefer to major on mans response? What man must do? .....however 'pious' it might be. Am I discounting Mens/ Womens response? not at all I understand the Gospel is about God's activity in Jesus for the benefit of all the seed of Adam. It is not about mans response per se. My...
