1 | Is this the 'Complete Christian'? | NT general Archive 1 | Reformer Joe | 24569 | ||
Lisa: I am not sure of the point of your question. Brian has indicated that adherence to the Apostle's Creed is what makes one a Christian. I replied that the Apostle's creed is true, but there are many people who believe the points who are not Christians. Why? Because if you are wrong on salvation by grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone, you are doomed. That is not mentioned in the creed at all. As for your other question, are you implying that damnation is not a reality? What could judgment be but the condemnation of the guilty? --Joe! |

No worries Joe. There seems to be a lack of understanding all the way around. Makes me sad. I do believe in damnation. Be well, Lisa |

Lisa: I think a lot of it is not a lack of understanding, but rather plain, old-fashioned disagreement. Brian and I are not saying the same thing using different terminology; he is saying one thing, and I am saying its opposite. It happens, even among people who understand the other's position completely. That means that one of us is wrong regarding on a very crucial point: what makes a person a Christian? The best way to combat misunderstanding is by more thorough explanation. For example, you wrote: "I don't see damnation of other included in the creed. I'm guessing you mean judgement of the living and the dead. How is it that you equate that to damnation?" I will try and clear up misunderstanding by asking you what the judgment is, and what the end result of the judgment will be. If not damnation, what? --Joe! |
