1 | When does newness of life start? | Rom 6:4 | Hank | 56320 | ||
rferg, first-time greetings to you! A pedantic pedagogue lurks among us and it is, alas, I. You state, "It is not baptism that saves us..." Agreed. You continue, "...it's our faith in God's grace that he sent his Son Jesus to save us from the penalty of death." Disagree. It is not our faith in God's grace that saves. The proper sequence of thought is this: "For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God" [Eph.2:8] The faith that saves, you see, is faith in Jesus Christ, the person; not faith in grace, the thing. --Hank | ||||||

Hi Hank, You were pretty observant and alert for that time of the morning. I wouldn't call you a pedantic pedagogue after reading of it :) in the dictionary, for attention to detail is necessary for good communication. I hope that I am not thought of as pedantic in my stress on capitalization. Sorry to cut in here; no answer is required. From the heart, Ray |

Thanks, Ray. Apparently I do my best work, such as it is, when half asleep. It's always a surprise and sometimes a shock to wake up the next morning to read what I wrote the night before :-) --Hank | ||||||
