    Racism and bigotry won the day. So sad for USA.

    While I agree that racism and bigotry are alive and well all around the world and very visibly in USA politics of today and while I also agree that racism and bigotry are contrary to the teaching of Christ I do not agree that making lots of babies is the solution to the problem. But it is an...

    Salvation - Part 2

    Amen, a man is justified by works and not by faith alone. Believing the gospel necessarily implies obeying it and that necessarily means doing good works, if the faith has no works it is dead, some call it false faith but it is just dead faith and as useless to the living as death is.

    Salvation - Part 2

    I completely agree. *sigh* Context always matters but who here on CH hasn't read saint Paul's letter to the Romans? I am confident that you, brother Psalms 91, have read it and know the context. I have, I am confident that brother Arsenios has too. Sames goes for MennoSota, Josiah, Lamm and...

    Migrant Caravan from Honduras

    I have no idea what any of the people in the "caravan" understand. The law in the USA says what it says and that is what matters legally speaking. "Apply" and "filling in forms" is not the same thing. "Apply" can and does mean "ask" with or without forms in writing. If you were unable to write...

    Salvation - Part 2

    You are right that the verses are simple enough to understand without calling for a scholar to explain it all for you. And you are right that it will be made complicated for the sake of somebody's theology. Perhaps a straw man about "law and gospel" or a false claim about "misunderstanding the...

    Salvation - Part 2

    if you believe that God has raised Jesus up from the dead, [then] you shall be saved. One message says: You keep insisting that IF ONLY WE...THEN GOD WILL... That's not how God has salvation laid out for us. But that message is wrong. Holy scripture does say "If only we ... then God will ..."...

    Imputed or reckoned?

    "sly grin" I mentioned his name in the post where I quoted him, are you, dear brother, losing your memory? :P Here's his name and the quote. Albert Barnes, a Presbyterian commentator, writes: Romans 4:3 For what saith the Scripture? - The inspired account of Abraham’s justification. This...

    Imputed or reckoned?

    Did you read the Presbyterian chap's commentary? He made a few good points - and one or two that were not so good.

    Imputed or reckoned?

    Yes, indeed. Christians have the mind of Christ. It's not "reckoned" to them. ;)

    Migrant Caravan from Honduras

    The law says they have to be in USA territory to apply for asylum. There's a lot of them, a couple of thousand at least, would they all fit in the USA Honduras embassy?

    Migrant Caravan from Honduras

    They can apply when they are on USA territory; I guess some embassies would fit that. Why not apply at the border crossing?

    Migrant Caravan from Honduras

    Australian law differs from USA laws on the matter of applying for asylum and being present on Australian Territory. The government here has done all sorts of strange things to deny any right to apply for asylum within Australia opting instead to remove asylum seekers to other countries and...

    Imputed or reckoned?

    Imputed righteousness is a bit of a mystery until a clear understanding of imputation is obtained. Albert Barnes, a Presbyterian commentator, writes: Romans 4:3 For what saith the Scripture? - The inspired account of Abraham’s justification. This account was final, and was to settle the...

    Migrant Caravan from Honduras

    The "caravan" people haven't reached the USA border yet so we have no facts to go by regarding how they will enter USA territory. But if they do enter USA territory the law says they can apply for asylum regardless of how they entered the USA. This is what the law says: To obtain asylum through...
