    Does God Accept Imperfect Obedience?

    Can there be an "imperfect" obedience? It seems to me that a person either obeys or disobeys. As for Christ saving only those who obey the Law: Who can obedience to the Law save anyone? Obedience is not necessarily conditioned upon love. I can obey God because I love Him, or I can obey Him...

    Romans 1:1-7

    Those are all related. I noticed that "servant" and "called" are together in the opening clause. Being a servant, God called him to be an apostle. I wonder if we could say that they are tied together. The reason God called Paul to be an apostle is because he is a servant. Certainly God would...

    I don't object to disagreement. Agreement is not the point of discussion. The purpose of discussion is to learn new ideas and to open ourselves up to different ways of viewing things.

    I regret trying to create a discussion.

    So many tangents. My initial intent was to discuss the idea that "Jesus paid for our sins." It is not a biblical concept. Instead, it was introduced into the protestant church and is now a filter, or lens, through which many people view passages of scripture related to the idea of atonement...

    Come on Rick Otto. You know better than that. Look into the history if Corinth. It's basic hermeneutics. Lucius Mummius leveled the city in 146 BC, killed the men, and sold the women and children into slavery. Julius Caesar refounded the city in 44BC and populated it with freed slaves. The...

    I'll discuss Romans 3 Paul is addressing the idea that God considers those who live by faith to be righteous. He also addresses the idea the Jesus Himself is the atoning sacrifice that allows humanity to be in a right relationship with God (replacing the sacrifices required by the Law). Paul...

    Thank you for your thoughtful reply. I did not mean to imply that we "have to pay for our sins to be forgiven." In fact, my intent was, and is, to challenge the notion that Jesus had to pay for our sins so that we could be forgiven.
