@pgwizzle @joshwhitlatch Are you a believer in free will?

[Steve Ruskamp @RuskampSteve]

@pgwizzle @joshwhitlatch Repentance would be part of obeying. Conviction, I don’t think about it much, but I don’t think it’s comforting. How could it be?

[Steve Ruskamp @RuskampSteve]

@joshwhitlatch The question was to you. Is obedience part of belief whatever your definition is.

[Steve Ruskamp @RuskampSteve]

@joshwhitlatch @pgwizzle I have heard that from many.

[Steve Ruskamp @RuskampSteve]

@swamthetiber25 You’ll have to talk more about your journey from reform to Catholic. Reform ed doesn’t make sense at all to me.

[Steve Ruskamp @RuskampSteve]

@joshwhitlatch @pgwizzle I thought obedience and Good works just automatically “flowed” from salvation. Now you’re saying you have to work at it. Hmm. What if you say no

[Steve Ruskamp @RuskampSteve]

@joshwhitlatch No, they don’t. You haven’t spoken a verse of scripture in the last five responses at least. Anyone can read scripture, but that doesn’t give you the authority to interpret it.

[Steve Ruskamp @RuskampSteve]

@joshwhitlatch You didn’t answer the question what gives you authority to say you know the truth. Don’t say scripture.

[Steve Ruskamp @RuskampSteve]

@joshwhitlatch What about my question?

[Steve Ruskamp @RuskampSteve]

@joshwhitlatch I am not insulting you or wishing death on you. I am just pointing out your arrogance. Like how do you think you are the authority? Please answer the question.

[Steve Ruskamp @RuskampSteve]

@joshwhitlatch This is where sola Scriptura gets you

[Steve Ruskamp @RuskampSteve]

@joshwhitlatch You’re disgusting. Arrogance is an insult to all Catholics. Perhaps you are the one that needs to be “gotten through to“.

[Steve Ruskamp @RuskampSteve]

@JTJosephauthor @joshwhitlatch So is that necessary?

[Steve Ruskamp @RuskampSteve]

@swamthetiber25 Thanks for your work on this

[Steve Ruskamp @RuskampSteve]

@TradReform @Rblv73 But what does it all entail? John 336 puts disobedience in opposition to belief. You all make believe seem like just an instant thought. A very narrow description. I don’t really think you believe that though.

@catholicpat Jealousy

@joshwhitlatch Aaahhh yeah, we must all drop the Pride
