Actually I think I get most of it.What is it that you don't get about repentance for the remission of sins?
Have you ever seen me teach agains the concept of repentance as an integral part of believing on Christ?
Are you laboring under the misaprehension that those who don't believe in a Pelagian view of salvation have not therefore personally repented of our sins?
There is no need for a full/limited atonement argument. It's just natural men tossing leaves into the wind to see where they land.
I agree with this.
Where did you get the idea that I wouldn't?
There is no need for an argument about the extent of the atonement at all.
The scripture is pretty clear that the atonement was of unlimited value for all. People of the Calvinis persuasion should have just left it at that and not developed the doctrine of limited atonement through the use of faulty logic.
Not so.It doesn't matter if it's a full/limited atonement
Sound doctrine is of much importance in the church.
................ if you don't repent, you will perish. You can spend eternity in hell gnashing your teeth, if you don't repent.
Very true.
But that, of course, depends on how your view of repentance for the remission of sins works into a sound systematic theology which includes salvation by grace?
I realize that you do not believe in systematic theology. But it is of prime importance to let the scriptures interpret the scriptures and show yourself a good workman and approved of God rightly dividing the Word of Truth.
".....there must also be factions among you, so that those who are approved may become evident among you." 1 Corinthians 11:19
I believe I know whether you will be approved of God in the end or not - should you fail to exercise saving faith in this lifetime.
It's not a prety picture.
