1 | One Way NOT to Study the Bible | 1 Sam 17:49 | Morant61 | 147945 | ||
Greetings Doc and Kalos! I think that Ed is simply trying to say that one does not have to choose between the two. Heb. 11 is not 'either or', but 'both and'! :-) God is certainly sovereign, but we also have to act upon our faith. Otherwise, 'faith is dead'. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

"I think that Ed is simply trying to say that one does not have to choose between the two." (faith or obedience) Heb. 11 is not 'either or', but 'both and'!"Tim, Precisely. And on the subject of God's glory: God's saints do not steal or diminish His glory. God is glorified in His saints. As Mary says in Luke 1:46-47 "My soul doth magnify the Lord and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior." 2 Thess 1:10 "when He comes to be glorified in His saints on that day, and to be marveled at among all who have believed--for our testimony to you was believed. " 2 Thess 1:12 "so that the name of our Lord Jesus will be glorified in you, and you in Him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ. " God Himself glorifies His saints. Rom 8:17 "and if children, heirs also, heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him so that we may also be glorified with Him." Rom 8:30 "and these whom He predestined, He also called; and these whom He called, He also justified; and these whom He justified, He also glorified." Emmaus |

Just a little food for thought.Wouldnt one say that faith and obedience go together? It's not likely that anyone will have one in absence of the other. (Jn 14:23,Heb 11:6a) In Christ, lionheart |
