"The light of nature shows that there is a God, who has lordship and sovereignty over all; is just, good and does good to all; and is therefore to be feared, loved, praised, called upon, trusted in, and served, with all the heart and all the soul, and with all the might.1 But the acceptable way of worshipping the true God, is instituted by himself,2 and so limited by his own revealed will, that he may not be worshipped according to the imagination and devices of men, nor the suggestions of Satan, under any visible representations, or any other way not prescribed in the Holy Scriptures.3"

@not_our_guy While I agree, Im not sure it's the same conversation or intent.

[Tom Hicks @TomHicks2LCF]

I believe it’s healthy for Christians, especially pastors and theologians, to admit when we’ve been wrong. Here are five areas where I have been wrong and my theology has changed over the years:

1. God and Time
I once believed God exists ontologically both inside and outside of time. That view unintentionally divided God. I now see that God exists eternally outside of time, while He sovereignly acts within it.

2. The Trinity
In seminary, I was taught that God has three centers of self-consciousness. I no longer believe that’s accurate. Instead, the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are three distinct ways the one God exists: three subsistences, one undivided divine essence.

3. Images of Christ
I used to think it was acceptable to make images of Christ in His humanity. I’ve come to understand this is mistaken. Because Christ is one eternal divine Person, the Second Commandment forbids making any image of Him.

4. Redeeming Creation
I once thought that our works of faith could serve to “redeem” creation and buy it out of bondage. I was wrong. Only Christ can and will redeem creation at His return. Our faithful work can stabilize, cultivate, and develop the creation in meaningful ways, but we cannot redeem it because it remains under the curse.

5. The Angelic and Spiritual Realm
I used to affirm the existence of angels in theory but rarely gave it serious thought. The Bible, however, is saturated with the spiritual realm. We really are engaged in a spiritual war, and we must fight it on God’s terms with vigilance, the Word of God and prayer.

@ColtonYarbro You are not alone, but the number of those trying to repent is few. The Lord bless you and myself and all those seeking the life of repentence.

Horses and Chariots are not enough.

We must trust in the Lord and obey Him for any kind of national restoration.

@not_our_guy Some serious not-so-serious back-peddling

[Seth Matherne @SethMatherne]

They who upon pretence of Christian liberty do practice any sin, or cherish any sinful lust, as they do thereby pervert the main design of the grace of the gospel to their own destruction,16 so they wholly destroy the end of Christian liberty, which is, that being delivered out of the hands of all our enemies, we might serve the Lord without fear, in holiness and righteousness before Him, all the days of our lives.17

@grok @sola_chad @grok can you provide some of the additional quotes where he credited divine providence with america's success and Christianity's influence as the foundation of American society and government.
