And the Internet abounds with such, keeping James Swan busy researching and correcting, though Luther’s propensity to sometimes extreme hyperbole, and too often caustic language can be a problem.

***

It’s true.

Hyperbole was necessary for the time in which Dr. Luther was living, I’m sure. Much like President Trump today, Martin Luther was speaking directly to the people and so spoke in the language of the people.

Even so, many years after it can be a little tough to navigate.

It’s not that difficult to find the misquotes, misrepresentations, and cherry-picking in the attacking links, though.

Luircin wasn’t claiming it.

You were.

It was right in your post where you were trying to slander Luther.

Why do you hate him so much?

I never lied about you.

You continue to insist I follow Luther even though I've told you numerous times that is not the case. Sounds like a lie to me.

Go. Get. That. Help.

Our salvation is a done deal and God does not disown us when we sin.

That is the part I think a lot of believers have a hard time really understanding.

We commit sin and know we deserve punishment....yet, the Father doesn't kick us out of the family. He may take us to the woodshed....but never kicks us out of the family.

Not any more than any other parent would disown a child whenever they disobeyed the parent.

Disciplined? Yes.

Disowned and kicked out of the house? No.

Alas, MrChips has been banned.

We’ll have to settle for playing with the other troll on the thread.

So much for this being an intelligent website.

Who claimed it to be?

You REALLY want FR run by Government?

But, since my posts in this thread were removed simply because I had a Latin quotation of St. Augustine in the tagline, I don’t expect you to be able to follow my train of thought.

I read them before they were gone; and probably replied to them as well.

You can repost if you think it'll help your cause any.

Care to point out one post where I've insisted you follow Luther?

I have no time for ebb tide, the unrepentant apostate.

Do you even know what an apostate is?

Hint: Luther was one.

Faith is what saves the individual. The works come about as a result.

What a good idea! Let’s hear what God’s holy word says rather than the musings, ideas and misinterpretations of sinful men.

And how do you go about receiving absolution for your own mortal sins?

I truly hope you know the answer!!

But; if not; here ya go...

...1 John 1:9
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.


(You may now come back with, "But to WHOM do you have to confess them to?")
