    Discussion of a Foundational "Evangelical" Teaching

    Interesting sequence of posts. Pedrito makes a good point when he observes that logic can be improperly applied with the result of nullifying what is stated in holy scripture. One example of misapplied logic is the way John's statement about will is handled. Saint John contrasts human will...

    I think it is a good thing to delay until the voting public can voice its opinions on who should be in the house and in the senate making decision about matters of law and who is appointed to the scotus.

    Faith without good works is dead.

    Maybe I am misreading what MennoSota wrote. He appears to be saying that "dead faith" simply does not exist. He appears to assert that "dead faith" implies that God did it wrong and gave faulty faith. Then he goes on to assert that the kind of faith that God gives is always attached to good...

    Faith without good works is dead.

    This is good news. It is a blessing to see you affirm in writing that faith without good works is dead - meaning unable to save anybody - because faith that is alive is always busy doing the good works that God prepared for the faithful to do. Amen and amen.

    Discussion of a Foundational "Evangelical" Teaching

    The Lord, Jesus Christ, asked the apostles if they wanted to stop following him. The implication being that they could stop following him if they wanted to. Jesus said to the twelve, "Do you also wish to go away?" Simon Peter answered him, "Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of...

    Salvation

    It's kind of you, Josiah, to be so solicitous of the care and tending of this thread's topic. It seems to me, the thread's originator, that it is in fact on topic and has been for quite a long time.

    Why has Open Theism become popular?

    Yes, something like that is part of it. Wikipedia says: John Calvin held a view on predestination sometimes referred to as "double predestination." This is the view that God has actively chosen some people for damnation as well as for salvation. It is not the view of any of the Reformed...

    poverty is the worst form of violence.

    Is poverty not the worst form of violence? Because it happens by the exploitation of one by another even if the exploitation is accomplished without the knowledge of the one exploiting others. This is better understood from the perspective where everyone is a child of the same God but here on...

    Why has Open Theism become popular?

    I think that maybe "Open Theism" is popular for many reasons but one reason may be to avoid the doctrine of double predestination.

    In alchemy the aim was to change accidents. That is not what happens in the holy Eucharist.

    mentioning politics from the pulpit

    Well, was God not their king? Surely he was until they rejected him a few centuries after Moses was given the Law by God. And being king of Israel God legislated for them, giving them laws to govern many matters among which is the law I quoted governing the treatment of one's neighbours.

    Transubtantiation and Alchemy?

    Of course it teaches a change of substance; a whole and complete change of substance from the substance of bread & wine to the substance of the body & blood soul & divinity of the Lord Jesus Christ because "this is my body" and "this is the cup of the new covenant in my blood shed for the...

    mentioning politics from the pulpit

    Just laws and alleviation of poverty were in fact part of the Law that God gave through Moses. Deuteronomy 23:24-25 24 “If you go into your neighbor's vineyard, you may eat your fill of grapes, as many as you wish, but you shall not put any in your bag. 25 If you go into your neighbor's...
