Another part of the story you don’t hear is that the man became a Muslim when he returned to prison.

well then, at least he's purpose driven! Besides, RW had lots of praise for his Muslim brothers and sisters.

Well, I wouldn’t say the religious right is the solution either. the church should, as a church, focus more on getting the MESSAGE correct - of God’s wrath against our sin, eternal punishment, salvation by grace alone through faith alone, through Christ’s blood atonement death and resurrection, repentance, sanctification all by grace, and of Christ’s imminent return for his church. The political stuff will fall into place if the church doesn’t get distracted by trying to be a political action committee. Let the individuals do that after receiving a good spiritual diet from the church. The church has a hard enough job staying on message. If you get off message you will get neither saved people nor righteous (as far as man can act righteously) government/society.

Thanks for the update. So RW’s book helped her use drugs less frequently. There’s a claim for you.

Hmm.... well in today's world getting your behavior in order = salvation so...I guess she was on the road to salvation. :-\

But seriously, the woman *could* be saved, and struggling with addiction, working at getting off. Still, even if she is, she is in SPITE of the PDL not because of it. Only the Gospel saves, and it's not in the PDL.
