@korrathetaymi@InspiringPhilos This lady tries to gaslight herself to Ws. No matter how bad she looks, she instantly starts shouting all over social media how she embarrassed someone ๐๐
@CossmanTodd@DanteT1NG@BryanRCross@Acolyte83349490@LizzieMarbach There is incontrovertible evidence that the Holy Spirit was given before water baptism, that everyone before Pentecost was justified without water baptism, that St. Paul was not sent to baptize but to preach the Gospel, and Jew & Gentile are justified the same way. Think on that.
@CossmanTodd@DanteT1NG@BryanRCross@Acolyte83349490@LizzieMarbach So you believe we can say initial justification is by faith alone, provided that โfaith aloneโ means a faith formed by love?
Remember, not too long ago you were chiding me for using โfaith aloneโ because St. Paul never uses that phrase.
@CossmanTodd@DanteT1NG@BryanRCross@Acolyte83349490@LizzieMarbach So are you saying the initial justification is by faith alone? I don't think the EO in this thread agree with that, but you are trying to explain what they mean. Why don't you just speak for your own beliefs?
@DanteT1NG@CossmanTodd@BryanRCross@Acolyte83349490@LizzieMarbach You are asking a question again, instead of answering the question I asked you.
"Same" in what respect? They obviously differ in in many ways, but are the same in some. So define in what respect and in relation to what.
@DanteT1NG@CossmanTodd@BryanRCross@Acolyte83349490@LizzieMarbach It explains nothing. It only begs the question. No one has done more to distort Scripture than you. For example saying Paul was counting the work of Genesis 12 when he mentioned โnot workingโ in Genesis 15? Do you even have a Church Father who makes this argument?
@Acolyte83349490@theThinkInst There's using your cognitive faculties (everyone does that) and private judgment in the bad sense. What makes the bad sense bad, and why isn't picking EO over Rome an instance of it?
@muslimorthodoxy@InspiringPhilos The world of Islamic thinking. 130 people like this as a reply whereas its obvious to any thinking person that he deflected. He resorted to his childish braggadocious talk, because he knows he is wrong. Surprised he didn't say, "Stop panicking" or "Let me talk" ๐คฃ๐คฃ
