I'm not sure if you mean Reformed Theology or Protestant Theology? Reformed Theology is a subset of Protestant Theology in a similar way Thomist and Molinist are a subset of Catholic Theology. Volumes have been written about Reformed Theology so to answer "What is reformed Theology?" on a...

I never said that "you" said that it what it means. Here is what I said in my original reply Catholics like to say that the Ark of the Covenant and Mary are link typo-logically. They do this to show the perpetual virginity of Mary and other Marian dogmas. Basically, because they are both...

I have no problems saying that Mary and the Ark are somehow typologically related. I do however, have a problem saying that typological relationship means that Mary is/was a sinless ever-virgin. Just because one may be true doesn't mean the other has to be true. Old Testament types...

Like I said, it leads to a lot of speculation. The Ark was where the tablets (the old covenant) were stored and transported. Mary was how Christ (who brought the New covenant) was delivered to mankind. Mary and the Ark had different purposes and a different outcome. The Ark was built by man...

Typology is a tricky thing as often a matter of opinion and speculation. Catholics like to say that the Ark of the Covenant and Mary are link typo-logically. They do this to show the perpetual virginity of Mary and other Marian dogmas. Basically, because they are both "arks" and because if...

When conversing with some Catholics they point out that Protestant Doctrine is all over the place. There is no church unity in Protestantism and so forth. Here is my perspective. Faith and Doctrine are not the same thing. Faith is believing in and trusting God. Doctrine is believing things...

From the church I attends website. Therefore, we are committed to contending for the faith that was once for all delivered to the saints (Jude 1:3). In unity with the historic Christian church, we believe and confess the Apostles’, Nicene and Chalcedonian Creeds as accurate representations of...

God is also Just. We deserve God's justice. Love, Mercy and Grace are is not things he "owes" us. He doesn't owe us salvation, eternal life, health, joy, or any blessings. He gives those things to His adopted Children, not because He owes anybody anything, but because of His Love, Mercy...

We are rebels, sinners who by our fallen nature are enemies with God. So yes, while we are alienated from God we are totally separated from relationship with God. We are His offspring, in the sense that He made us in His image, but our sinfulness has totally broken our relationship with God...

Human Beings were (and are) his children only in the sense that they are made in the image of God. All human beings are worthy of respect simply for this reason. God does not owe anything to any person simply because they were made in the image of God. We are all sinners and Galatians calls...

I've looked at the widow's mite this way. She was giving all she had, which is what we are supposed to do at Christians. Some of us have the ability to give both time and money to further the Gospel. However, all our situations are different. In the end, it isn't about how much you give but...

Are you saved because you believe? Or do you believe because you are saved? Yes

I think pretty much any of the other Republicans mentioned as possible candidates would have a greater chance of winning and would make a better president.

We need someone who does all those thing yet doesn't come across as vengeful, spiteful, and immature.

That was my opinion about Trump before he ever ran for President. I think that is just the way Trump is. He comes across as vengeful, spiteful, and immature.

No doubt about that. The problem is that Trump is abrasive, abusive, petty, and arrogant. It is much easier for swing voters to believe the caricature about Trump than it would be about someone who comes across as a decent and caring human being. Republicans and Democrats don't care if...

I don't believe that for a minute. Independents hate Trump and voted accordingly. In the three elections since Trump was elected Republicans have either gotten trounced or historically under performed. If the Republican party wants to win another election they need to drop Trump Populism...

It looks like the Red Wave turned out to be a mild ripple. What are the implications for Republicans going forward after this historically bad showing in the mid-terms? With the President unpopular and the economy the number one issue the party that is not in the White House should have...

I think it is a matter of perspective and priority. When I was in my 20's and 30's I was preoccupied with Politics. I grew up in a very Republican family. My dad was on a first name basis with the first Republican Governor of Alabama since reconstruction. I went campaigning with the Governor...

The German people were brainwashed and those who weren't brainwashed were bullied into following Hitler. Yet, you can still find plenty of examples of Christian's living out their faith in Nazi Germany. Either by helping Jews by hiding them or helping them escape or other acts of love and...
