Subject: "ONCE SAVED ALWAYS SAVED"!!! |
Bible Note: FTimA, I concur that we "must look at Gods' word as a whole". I think where we may part in our understanding is the book of Acts. If we only look at this this book, it would be hard to conclude otherwise. I may be wrong, but I do not believe that Acts is a doctrinal book nor is it viewed as such by scholars. Its' focus is more historical and provides a transition between the Gospels and Epistles. This is not in any way to say that there is not truth or eternal principles contained in it. Given this, I would not and do not take specific doctrine, i.e. salvation from it. If it is "doctrinal", then what of the great Systematic Theology of Paul in Romans? With your view, do you not see a contadiction? I believe this accounts for our difference of interpretation and therefore application. Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |
