Subject: saved and sanctified |
Bible Note: John, You know, of course,that 'sola scriptura' does not mean that all references to all sources but the Bible are prohibited on SBF. Many of the old divines as well as a few contemporary Christian writers have much to teach us, and we should not ignore them ourselves or be stingy in sharing with others the light that the Holy Spirit revealed to these saints. ..... Irony, John, at the expense and possible embarrassment of a fellow Forum registrant, is not in harmony with the aims and purposes of SBF. There are other, better ways of dealing with differences. I pray that you will consider an apology in this instance and that we all of us will make a concerted effort to be more gentle and more loving toward one another, as the Scripture says, "Be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God, for Christ's sake, hath forgiven you" (Ephesians 4:32). ..... I myself have need to keep this verse ever before me, no less than any other registrant on SBF. --Hank |
