Subject: Does it take away sins or not? |
Bible Note: This is also off topic ......................... Dear Bill Mc, Tim, and Reformer Joe, I'm not sure that there is anyway to bring consensus amoung you three Forum leaders on this issue. Reformer Joe is our resident expert defender of Calvinism. Tim is our resident expert defender of Arminianism. And Bill Mc is our resident expert defender of not claiming any labels whatsoever. However, I have appreciated posts from all three of you relating to this discussion in the past. I would recommend that a new thread be started to deal with the issues brought up by the website Bill Mc referred to. I think the overall point was that debating the issue of Calvinism/Arminianism divides the church where no division is needed. I think that this could make for an interesting new thread that could even cover some new ground on this subject (which hasn't been done for a while). For instance, if one gets past the initial disagreements on general issues, does it really lead to significant differences in application? Or do Tim and Reformer Joe have significantly different relationships with God as a result of their beliefs on this subject? If the answers are no, then possibly the guy on the website has a good point. If the answers are yes, then what are these significant differences? To sum up, this could be very interesting, but is not staying on the original topic of this thread, and so deserves it's own seperate one. |
