1 | explain the doctrine of predistination | Rom 9:13 | kalos | 165112 | ||
DocTrinsograce: You write: "I don't even come close to being as precise and eloquent as the old divines. I would never have been able to word things as well as they have done. The best I can do for you -- i.e., the very best -- is to point you to that confession." You also write: "Does this mean you are interested in my ability to paraphrase?" Exactly! This is exactly why I so frequently quote various preachers, teachers, and scholars. It's because: - I don't even come close to being as precise and eloquent as they. - I would never have been able to word things as well as they have done. - The best I can do is to point people to the writings of others. - If I try to paraphrase, I might make a mistake and misstate whatever it is I'm talking about. One thing no one needs is more error and confusion regarding Bible questions. There is no point in me trying to reinvent the wheel. And that is why I quote other people. Grace to you, John P.S. I even found it necessary to quote you to explain why I quote others. :-) Thanks for expressing it so well. |
