Ah you want proof texts. I stand on the the whole book of James. That is the problem pulling one verse one precept opens the door for easy rebuttal. But when we apply any verse in light of all scripture then the rebuttal is not easily made. Cultist love for Christians to cite scripture, they study that scripture and have an rebuttal for it. But when made to take all of scripture then their arguments fall apart. Calvinist and the rest of Christianity had been at odds for hundreds of years. I'm sure you a good Calvinist has a response to every verse I may cite. As I have to any verse you cite. What we need to look at is the whole scripture. God has a plan for the church and I'm certain that plan does not include one Christian denomination putting down another because of their differing theology based on their interpretation of scripture. |

Dear Ed, Very well, I stand on all the words of the Kerigma. In addition, the words of Augustine, the Canons of Orange, the Canons of Dort, the Westminster Confession -- all of which do a better job of citing the Word than "all of James." Sorry, it will take some effort on your part. As you are challenging me, the onus of responsibility is with you. Let's go to the proof texts. I'll deal with them. In Him, Doc |

My point is while you may stand on various works, remarks, quotes of man they do not supercede scripture. The discussion on instant sanctification versus an ongoing process has been discussed ad nausium without resolution so what is the point? Your attempt to establish your postion as dogma through the use of a quote is a falsehood. You give a quote that contains no scripture but you try to demand any rebuttal must contain scripture. My point both sides of this discussion have their favorite scripture that appear to support their position. Hence the reason for no agreement on either side. |
