Well that may be true, but Roman Catholics are a work-based lot, and that is how they think of it. So to the Greeks I became a Greek, and to the Jews I became a Jew,...as the Apostle Paul wrote.

You don't lead anyone to saving faith by obscuring the Gospel of Grace.

With only five days to go, quibbling about doctrines of man seems a little pointless. How about we just love another?

Worthiness is a doctrine of man. Grace is a blessing of God. They are opposites. Not a quibble.

Do you have a plan if we are still here in 6 more days or 6 more months?

I doubt he does. I marked it on my calendar months ago (actually I spotted him some extra time into October IIRC). And if and when it doesn’t happen - and everything sure makes it look like it won’t happen - then I think he should be reminded of how easily he was led astray.

Then you need to read the Letter from James to find out how Grace really works. Pun intended.

I plan to occupy and watch until He comes. Same as I’m doing now.

Worthiness it what grace accomplishes. Or do you think that "blessing of God" objectively changes nothing?
