I had filled my head up with Scritpure and was quite clever at reciting passages, . . .
Sorry, but I just had to comment on this one item. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/evilgrin.gif" alt="" /> In all the time you have been here, I cannot recall reading any more than perhaps a handful of biblical references/quotes in your posts. If you are/were so "filled" with the Bible, then surely it would be more evident than what we have seen thus far.
2) It isn't enough to be able to "quote" Scripture... egad man... every fanatic out there can do that; no doubt in order to impress their hearers who doubtless rarely read the Bible. They key is to a) comprehend the teachings of Scripture, aka: "rightly dividing the word of truth", and b) putting those teachings into practice, aka: "being conformed to the image of Christ".
3) IF you think that the keeping of God's law (will) is indispensable, then perhaps you should refresh your "Scripture filled head" with Romans 6 and 7. Personally, I have this odd inclination to believe Paul rather than Straw. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/giggle.gif" alt="" />
