"We never change our "substance" which is a Greek fallacy which the RCs seem to emulate..."

*Pagan* Greek, I hope you mean. There is absolutely no idea anywhere in Greek Christianity (i.e. Orthodoxy) that a human being's substance ("essence" is the word we use) can or will ever change into something else.

Didn't one of the Greeks here explain that, according to them, because Job was "perfect" it was possible for all men to become "perfect?"

Do you believe we are saved by Christ's righteousness imputed to us, or something else?
