    Salvation

    So I had an interesting encounter with a woman who is an Evangellical Protestant Christian, who when I told her that I was an Eastern Orthodox Christian asked this: "How do Catholics get saved?" I told her we live repentant lives and get baptized into Christ... And enter into the Services of...

    Salvation

    Does God create the grace He gives us? And what then IS the Salvation given to us by Grace... "For by Grace are ye saved..." Is there a Latin source for your claim that Jesus Christ IS the Grace God gives us for Salvation? This is a very precise question I am asking - And perhaps on the...

    Salvation

    So are we saved by Grace or by God? The Orthodox answer is YES... Salvation is God's Gift of Himself to fallen man... eg The Grace of God IS God, but not God in Essence... But is instead God in His ENERGIAS... Arsenios

    Salvation

    It is not Faith Who Saves, nor Works Who Save, but God Who Saves us IF we turn from evil unto God [repentance] inasmuch as we have strength to do so... Which is one reason why we beseech God for strength and faith... Arsenios

    So should I agree with you that our Prsident is an evil no good demonic human being whose departure from this earth would be a blessing for all mankind and a kindness from God? I mean, he does what you wanted him to do, and he is still a no-good piece of nothing good... Are you not rejoicing...

    Demonization is demonization... We demonized the "JAPS" and the "KRAUTS" in WWII, and the "ZIPS" in Vietnam... It is the rhetoric of hatred for the purpose of homicide... It is not the Way of Peace... Arsenios

    Here is our President keeping immigrant families together with an Executive Order... And maintaining a Zero Tolerance Policy at the border... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GgHG6N1l5co Arsenios

    Salvation

    So... IS Salvation about our entry into the Kingdom of Heaven? OR... Is it about forgiveness of sins "earned" by Christ for His "work" on the Cross? Arsenios

    Entry into the United States of America by Federal Law requires Federal authorization... If you wish the USA not require such authorization, then elect people who will change that law... In the mean time, support 3rd world ministries supporting the poor and adopting their orphans... That is...

    The Law requires children not to be held more than 20 days... And the Appeal for Asylum takes more than 20 days... Catch and release INTO the USA is NOT the policy of this President... So we need to change the Law to keep families together in detention until their cases resolve... Democrats...

    It's abhorrent.

    The Executive Branch is guilty of enforcing the Law? Was this Law not enforced under any previous Executive Branch? Demonizing the Administration for enforcing the Law is a political ploy to demonize... Let's join together and change bad Law... Right now... Arsenios

    It's abhorrent.

    God willing, the Cruz Bill will give our President the law needed to end this outcome... We need a law to keep these families together... And we need facilities on the border to hold them together until their case is ajudicated... IF it is not blocked by Democratic Fillibuster... Arsenios

    Who was Melchizedek?

    I should think that more than chosen and appointed by God individually and personally, the Priesthood of Melchizedek is actually ordained by God directly without human intermediaries... The priesthood of the Ekklesia is the co-equivalent fulfillment of the Levitical Priesthood, whereas the...

    Discussion of a Foundational "Evangelical" Teaching

    No - They are not "just as dead"... We can repent... There is no repentence in the grave... Arsenios

    Discussion of a Foundational "Evangelical" Teaching

    Is THAT the issue of this thread? Who in the world would ever argue that?? Especialy in the light of the Scripture which says: "I will have Mercy on whom I WILL have Mercy." The other straw man with Lazarus is the fact that we are not dead like Lazarus was dead, and that his being called to...

    Rush says that Abraham Lincoln used to say "The fastest way to get rid of a bad law is to enforce it." Pray for us to enact good immigration law... And to repeal bad immigration law... A little more compassion in the meantime is a good thing... The children are held for up to 20 days while...

    I thought this was what the US does... We can only detain children for 20 days... Families seeking asyum need more than 20 days for their cases to be heard... So the children are given to foster families... We simply do not have a law that permits "non-detention where possible" of families...

    Yes, there are, but if he were persecuting Christians, destroying Churches, saughtering people because they are Christians, then Putin would not support Assad, and might even invade his country... It is the persecution of Orthodox Christians in the Ukraine that motivated Putin to provide arms...
