Bible Note: Greetings Steve! 1) Early Church Fathers: I am still trying to track down the exact quotes. Several sources have mentioned that the traditional view, until later Augustine, was the unregenerate man. I have found one quote, but I am still trying to find the rest. I'll try to get you a list when I find them. 2) Your view: I don't think I have said anything about where you got your view my friend. You have been great at responding to me with Scripture. We may not agree, but at least you are defending your position with Scripture. :-) 3) Rom. 7:17 - "now and no longer I working it but the dwelling in me sin." (Literal translation). If this describes a Christian's experience, then sin is victorious. 4) Translation: My own translation. I've got to run! Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
