ML wrote: Justification is by faith, but not as you understand it... the answer you are looking for is "Yes". Now that was not that hard was it. It is much better than the itchy-twitchy dance, is it not?ML wrote: Faith is not the grounds of our justification. Well, honestly, you have just contradicted yourself. You can't state that justification is by faith but it is not the basis of it (the fundamental reason why one is justified). You can at least state that it is at least one of three fundamental reasons why one is justified, the other two being grace and blood.Romans 1:17 and 3:22 makes it very clear that faith is the basis of justification. Now moving on. By choosing faith over unconditional election you have just confessed that one is justified NOT because he has been unconditionally elected but rather that he has exercised faith. Do you realize this? |

Discerning Believer wrote: Yamil, It is only a rabbit trail when it exposes your false doctrines of man-centered salvation. Some wishful thoughts. How about dealing with the subject at hand like you have just suggested.I apologize for missing your question. DB wrote: DB: "...declares one to be righteous". Based on what, something you do or in something that has already been done by someone else, ie. Jesus Christ? Based on something the sinner does, viz. place his faith in Christ. Justification is by faith not by unconditional election.Do you believe that justification is by faith or unconditional election? Now please, just as I gave you a simple straightforward answer, I would appreciate a straightforward answer from you. I am not in the mood for itchy-twitchies. |

Discerning Believer wrote: Yamil, you are being very dishonest by not posting the entire paragraph. Your paragraph is not hard to find. In fact it's right before mine. SA allows only for a limited amount of posting, if you recall.Discerning Believer wrote: Basically your premise is that salvation is all a work of man and none of God. No. Why do you guys always resort to strawman arguments. Take what I said at face value. Unfortunately, this is the way you guys treat the Word of God too.God is the one that gave us the cognizant ability. God is the one that requires us to use it. God is the one that provides the choice. So again you are creating a pseudo-argument. Scripture also states that God will draw all men unto him. So it is obvious that from God's perspective everyone has that cognizant ability. Scripture interprets scripture. |

R. K. Borill wrote: What you are saying may be true about the past, but from my experience, I am not allowed consecutive posts even if I attempt to do it under an alias. I am a Calvinist. Therefore, whatever they have done in policy is being consistently applied. You are not being singled out. That was not the point of my post but since you are making it a point. The restriction came at the bidding of the Calvinist. Of course, once established it must be applied across the board but you will be glad to know that it was inspired by the overwhelming truth proposed by the Weapon of Mass Instruction. |

R. K. Borill wrote: Oh, most gracious Yamil who gives when we ask, and we have not because we have not asked you. Now we are asking because you have rebuked us as we deserve. Please tell us when we "thumb-sucking Calvinists" cried foul or whined when you gave out your "straightforward answers". You have rightly withheld the cheese when we have whined. We know that "it is within your nature to give us truth" even though the Almighty said in his Word: "Let God be true and every man a liar"! That being the case we yet know that you will tell us truthfully. You came after the fact, so you may not know what we are talking about. Ask your buddies who have been here longer when SA used to allow as many consecutive posts as desired to convey a point. This was only less than a year ago. |
