@MikeG04782097@EWErickson@WesleyLHuff To be fair, RC Sproul taught the same thing about fire and brimstone language likely being symbolic. That doesn’t necessarily downplay the reality of Hell in my opinion
@EvanPaul05 Acts 11:18 “God has granted repentance that leads to life.
2 Timothy 2:25 “…that God may perhaps grant them repentance leading to a knowledge of the truth.”
Romans 2:4 “…God’s kindness is meant to lead you to repentance.”
@petergoeman_ I can see both sides, but I’m thankful that Voddie’s fellow elders went against him on this, or we may never have known about his ministry
@EvanPaul05 “The saying is trustworthy and deserving of full acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am the foremost.” 1 Timothy 1:15
@hardbread_@EvanPaul05 If God truly has sovereignly ordained the salvation of sinners, how can it be that the sinners own choice is the deciding factor?
@TheRosarian153 @Vitus_oss Sola fide is not a license to sin. In fact, if no one accuses you of teaching ‘grace as an excuse to sin,’ then you’re not preaching Paul’s doctrine of justification which always leads to such objections. Romans 6:1-2.
