Re: Stay on topic
Sorry AdminNWR
​
Guess we got a bit carried away.
I did try to stop the drift a couple of times earlier but alas it was to no avail.
​
For my part I shall cease and desist the OT stuff immediately.

Looks pretty specific to me.
You can read? Right?

Re: A verse out of water
Your doing the same that the Matthew 25-ists do. Taking a verse out of context and forming a doctrine around it. When people say you can make the Bible say anything at all they are referring to this kind of thing.
Can't you see that you are doing exactly the same thing in the other direction?
​
There are plenty of places in the bible that back up the view of works alone too.
​
Everybody just seems to pick bits that agree with the way they see it to be and just ignore the rest.
I came up with a number of articles (from both sides of the argument) that all shared one theme.
That theme is that the bible is God's word and is therefore inerrant and infallible so no matter what the authors appear to be saying, they must actually be agreeing with each other. We just have to figure out how.
​
I find the whole thing laughable
