Subject: What is the Bible's take on sacriments? |
Bible Note: Joe Again you misunderstand, it is as if you try to find a point of disagreement rather than look at what I'm trying to express. I hope you know as well as I do none of what I said was an attempt to downplay or even minimize what Jesus did for us on the cross or the cost of that act in God’s eyes. I thought we were venturing into a philosophical discussion on the Sovereignty of God and the defining of our absolutes as God revealed his nature. However you make it appear that I’m attacking the work of the cross. Nothing could be further from the point I was making. I was using the act of salvation as an example of God’s gradual and loving unveiling of the nature of His attributes of justice, love, grace, and forgiveness. If it appeared to you as if I was downplaying the act salvation or the work of the cross I sincerely apologize. I’m sorry I failed to express myself with the clarity of thought that conveyed my real intention. I’m even a little hurt you would consider me capable of such a thing. If on the other hand you once again attempt to turn the table for the sake of debate then let us say I delight in the first sentence of your last paragraph. EdB |
