Thank you for your thoughtful and interesting reply. Have you read Scott Hahn? Just wondering.

Actually, if you wander too far from the first two commandments that Christ taught (Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, with all thy mind, with all thy soul, and Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself) I really don’t claim to know much. And if you wander much past John 6 I don’t know much about salvation, but I DO know all I need. Your study at least has some life to it, and I enjoyed reading what you had to say about it on your home page.

You’re right, I probably won’t read your links, my time is limited due to a family illness. But your thoughtful reply is appreciated.

Thank you for finding my comment "interesting".

I've heard of Hahn, not read anything of his.

As you note ("You’re right, I probably won’t read your links, my time is limited due to a family illness.") life's to short to read exhaustively. I'm 54, aware of the finitude and ephemerality of this life, and trying not to be too much of a fool about how I spend my time. (So, why am I wasting my time arguing with "certain parties"?)

If I was going to suggest one to you, it would be the Cardinal Sadoleto/John Calvin exchange from 1539. Not very long, well worth reading. Though, as always with literature of that time, close attention must be paid. (Note to self, reread this.)

Your study at least has some life to it, and I enjoyed reading what you had to say about it on your home page.

Again thank you for the compliment. At least you didn't run shrieking in horror and metaphorically making hex ward signs with your fingers against the "amillenial replacement theology", like at least one person's response to it was.

Someone said I need more gospel on that page, and I think I shall make changes to say more. Don't look for it to the typical "Invite Jesus into your heart" speech.
