Bible Note: Greetings Joe! I'm sorry about the thread. As I shared in a couple of my new posts, I have nothing but respect for you and several others on this forum who hold a different theological perspective than I do. I was simply annoyed to see this particular individual equating Arminianism with Pelagianism. The two have nothing in common whatsoever. Arminisim is not a heresy. Further, it is not even a non-sensical position. From my perspective, it makes great sense of the passages I quoted. Therefore, I couldn't resist the urge to ask Bjanko to back up his words. Unlike you, he hasn't. Instead of a treatment of the relevant Scriptures, all I have gotten is pronouncements about my philosophy. I enjoy debating the issue with you Joe! However, you are right, we can do it at another thread at another time! Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
