Post 267. Ebb tide lumps the Apostle Paul in with Luther and declares him a ‘fellow traveler’ to the ‘heretic.’

I never implied such a thing. Can you try to be honest, for once, and tell the truth?

Of course you didn’t ‘imply’. You said it outright.

St. Paul:
““1As for you, you were dead in your transgressions and sins, 2 in which you used to live when you followed the ways of this world and of the ruler of the kingdom of the air, the spirit who is now at work in those who are disobedient. 3 All of us also lived among them at one time, gratifying the cravings of our flesh[a] and following its desires and thoughts. Like the rest, we were by nature deserving of wrath. 4 But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, 5 made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions—it is by grace you have been saved. 6 And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus, 7 in order that in the coming ages he might show the incomparable riches of his grace, expressed in his kindness to us in Christ Jesus. 8 For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— 9 not by works, so that no one can boast. 10 For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.””

Ebb tide quote in post 267: “No. Only the heretic Martin Luther, and his fellow travelers state that; and Luther’s no saint.”

So St. Paul is one of Luther’s ‘fellow travelers,’ is he?

Guess that means ebb tide either admits that Luther is absolutely right, or that St. Paul is a heretic.

Which is it, ebby?

We all saw your post and what you said.

Luircin is correct.

You stepped in it and haven’t figured it out yet.
