Great point, Dutchboy88. I don’t understand the obsession with Solas, either. You know, if any mention of Paul and Paul’s Epistles were taken from the New Testament, the argument would stop. we would have the Gospels, fulfilling prophecies of the Old Testament, we would have Acts, where Peter speaks on the Day of Pentecost, calling for the restoration of Israel, and the accepting of Jesus Christ as their Messiah, we would have Israel rejecting that once again, we would have Israel becoming Lo Ammi (not my people) and the blinding of the Jews, and then we would have Hebrews, calling out to the 12 tribes scattered abroad for restoration and once again, confirming Christ as Messiah, through Revelation, and Christ returning to reign over his Kingdom Throne, with Peter and the 11 judging the 12 tribes of Israel. It’s unbroken and very easy to understand. Without Paul’s Epistles. Did you ever notice that on the day of Pentecost, Peter does NOT speak of Christ dying for our sins? That was not known until that revelvation and Gospel was given to Paul. It’s simply because Paul’s distinct mission is either ignored or watered down in order to “fit” someplace” that it doesn’t belong, that problems begin. And men decided to meet to try to tell us what they think Paul meant. And traditions begin. Along with creeds, dogma, “visions”, and “miracles”. It’s a sad shame that The Dispensation of the Grace of God is not understood for what it plainly states that it is.
Good points.
They’d be more read with white space between . . . paragraphs are our friends.
Good stuff, voice. Can we call you voice so we don’t have to write it all out? Feel free to call me DB, Dutch or whatever suits your inclination.
Nice comprehensive overview of the flow of the story from the NT together with the associated doctrines.
Grace to you.
