Theology is nothing if it does not lead to doxology and orthopraxy.

[Jordan Paterson @Calvy_CoG]

@ProvisionistP True.

[Jordan Paterson @Calvy_CoG]

@Soteriology101 Agree.

[Jordan Paterson @Calvy_CoG]

Time to get off X.

It’s been fun, friends.

@SwordMasterPub @towell_travis @towell_travis

Do you agree with his answer?

[Jordan Paterson @Calvy_CoG]

If original sin is merely Man's first sin (not inherited corruption/guilt), then why does everyone sin?

Why the inevitability?

[Jordan Paterson @Calvy_CoG]

@Nichola197756 Yeah - I am particularly targeting those that want to reject both an inheritied guilt, and an inherited Intrinsic corruption.

[Jordan Paterson @Calvy_CoG]

@EkklesiaMind But was it in Adams nature pre-fall?

@J0RDANSCHAEFFER @rootcausesleuth Did Root ever intend to clarify her statement?

I'm not sure why I'm being castigated for being precise whilst Root is free to make vague statements as she pleases?

[Jordan Paterson @Calvy_CoG]

@J0RDANSCHAEFFER @rootcausesleuth So we are like God ontologically?

[Jordan Paterson @Calvy_CoG]

@J0RDANSCHAEFFER @rootcausesleuth I'm clearly using it in relation to ontology.

[Jordan Paterson @Calvy_CoG]

@J0RDANSCHAEFFER @rootcausesleuth If God is ontologically different from creation, then my post is true.

God is ontologically not "like" is in any way.

[Jordan Paterson @Calvy_CoG]

@rootcausesleuth @J0RDANSCHAEFFER You're ignoring my point.

If you don't *also* see how God is wholly other from us when you read the Bible, I don't know what to say.

[Jordan Paterson @Calvy_CoG]

@J0RDANSCHAEFFER @rootcausesleuth No. There's no debate on the ontology of God being wholly other to creation.

[Jordan Paterson @Calvy_CoG]

@rootcausesleuth @J0RDANSCHAEFFER To be clear about what is meant when we affirm that we are like God (i.e. In what sense we are like God).

Precision is extremely important.

[Jordan Paterson @Calvy_CoG]

@rootcausesleuth @J0RDANSCHAEFFER Surely you can say "no" to that, right???

[Jordan Paterson @Calvy_CoG]

@J0RDANSCHAEFFER @rootcausesleuth So we are like God ontologically?

[Jordan Paterson @Calvy_CoG]

@J0RDANSCHAEFFER @rootcausesleuth Yes.

Now what does that mean?

[Jordan Paterson @Calvy_CoG]

@just_keep_read How is that corruption transferred from person to person?

[Jordan Paterson @Calvy_CoG]

@just_keep_read If they receive justice for their wickedness, yes. Justice is the supreme good

[Jordan Paterson @Calvy_CoG]

Everything that exists was created for the purpose of displaying and enjoying the supreme good.

God’s glory (His infinite worth, beauty, and excellence manifest) is the supreme good.

Therefore, creation exists for the ultimate purpose of displaying and enjoying God’s glory.

[Jordan Paterson @Calvy_CoG]

@jpclemens @Curi_Christian I don't see how that follows at all.

I'm still saying that man-post-fall, has a moral inability (which would reject the notion of semi-pelagianism), whilst also affirming that sin is not essential to human nature, which is why Jesus didn't sin.
