***I’ve sent you to the WCF of faith several times now, so you can see that we Presbyterians (and most Bible-believing Christians) agree that all teaching and doctrine must be founded upon the word of God alone. ***
I’ve been through it numerous times. It is apparent that the WCF (commissioned, bought and paid for a foreign government) cherry picks verse, completely misinterprets Paul (see post above that lists many of the common misinterpretations) and winds up to deviate considerably from the message of Christ.
***the primary belief that unites all Bible-believing Christians is that they know and believe and hold most dear the truth that Christ has paid for every one of their sins, and thus they stand today acquitted and redeemed by their Saviour who gave Himself a ransom for all those who believe on His name, by the grace of God alone.***
Then you disregard Paul too. Paul hoped for salvation. Gnostics knew.
We've heard all about our and Paul's supposed gnosticism from the Orthodox around here.
The charge doesn't hold water. Neither Paul nor Bible-believing Christians are gnostic, nor do they simply "hope" for salavation.
Christ's promise was certain and specific. We happily join with Paul to declare...
"I am not ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day." -- 2 Timothy 1:12
