Did we miss read your comment when you wrote of Paul “I think he may have been insane”??? Here's the deal Doc,

To do away with the entire truth of election, salvation by faith alone, total depravity etc, you have to discount/dismiss Paul's writings. Only then can you wallow in the fetid cesspool of semi-Pelagianism that is Rome.

You see this mindset in mainline (read liberal) Protestant denominations too. They will tell you Paul was a misogynist, the he was just writing through the lens of his era when he told us that homosexuality was a sin, etc.

It ALL goes back to the first sin when Satan posed the question did God really say.....

Men either trust the word of God or they don't.
