@pastorgrumbles The Heidelberg Catechism Question and Answer is okay

[Duff @dgh5391]

The Reformed view of 2CV is not relegated to merely "worshipping" an image, as such (i.e., icon veneration, prayer to saints, etc.).

It furthermore includes the broader categorical prohibition of depicting the divine through human art and imagination.

@HasnaMatBhai @grok Smadav if it still exists

@dgh5391 Kline takes a similar view to the state originating in Cain's mark and his lineage being city builders. I think the paper is the Oracular origin of the state

@brandon_adams I listened to a back and forth conversation he did with @PastorPerks on the @LondonLyceum with @JLSteffaniak and the other guy on clarifying confusion, and around the 1:20:00 to the end he made the clarification that it was consistent with his covenant theology. That's why I ask.

@brandon_adams : Is the limbus patrum doctrine a necessity of vanilla 1689 Federalism or is it an exception Sam took in his own formulation?

[Reformed Theology Neophyte @covenantalcreed]

Amen

@brandon_adams Sam argues the New Covenant is the covenant of Grace established by Christ's blood. He then argues because the blood wasn't yet shed, OT believers went to Abraham's bosom.

How do other 1689 Feds argue for the New Covenant's establishment by blood yet avoid the limbus patrum?

@theWatchfulRook @ScriptureAlone2 Taught a Historical Books undergrad class with the LSB. Loved how it renders judge as savior. Made the typology easier to teach to students unfamiliar with biblical theology and redemptive historical reading.

@brandon_adams How do other 1689 Federalists resolve the challenge?

[Reformed Theology Neophyte @covenantalcreed]

@ZacharyGarris Are you indirectly accepting that Canon Press publishes questionable material by drawing a parallel to Zondervan, Baker, P&R, and Eerdmans?

[Reformed Theology Neophyte @covenantalcreed]

@PerfInjust The argument collapses at an equivocal level. The term Christian is being used in two distinct ways.

The author of the first post is using Christian as a synonym for a regenerated individual and yes a school can't be regenerated.

You are arguing for what defines their practice.

[Reformed Theology Neophyte @covenantalcreed]

@ZacharyGarris @NickCostanzo20 Yet, the believer's obedience is not divorced from union with Christ.

I believe a proper law-gospel distinction yields this understanding.

It is Spirit-wrought.

@DanielRHyde Thank you for this, Dr. Hyde

@derekradney Sad to say:

Theology X relentlessly proves the adage

"The best of men are men at best."

@RScottClark The Canons of Dort do a wonderful job of refuting the conception of Arminius

@KeithMcilwain @Svigel How do you understand John 1:18 and 1 Timothy 6:16 ?
