Subject: Salvation by compulsion-Romans 5 |
Bible Note: formereverything: __"P.S. Hank, don't get so emotional."__ ..... It is not my practice to base theological statements or conclusions upon emotion but on Scripture, as I did my best to do in the post that spurred you to add an advisory P.S. How, therefore, are you able to infer that my answer to your question was a product of my emotion? ...... Scripture never teaches, as you seem to imply, that salvation is general or universal. Frankly, if my first answer does not answer your question clearly and to your personal satisfaction, I have no inclination, based on the conviction that it would be of no consequence, to argue the point with you further. I'm curious, did you carelly read and study the first 10 chapters of Romans as I recommended before you responded to my answer? If you did, I commend you on being a far swifter reader and student than anyone I know. --Hank |
