The Highway Forums General Discussion Theology Discussion Forum "Experimental Salvation" by A.W. Pink

First, an apology to Robin, my mistake which was made because I didn't look at his profile. As for my comments being out of line, I don't know how you can make that statement. Exactly what was out of line? I wrote plainly that we are changed by the Word of God. My point is that the change takes place on the will, affections and emotions by the renewing of our minds. The mortification and putting to death the deeds of the body are effected because mentally (renewing the mind) we were changed leading us to present our bodies a living sacrifice.

As for the "perhaps you think far too highly ... " we can disguise our words to appear innnocent enough, but the thought is there and a "perhaps" doesn't take the real intent of the words away. I have never questioned anyone's intent nor character, I don't know why anyone would on a discussion group. There isn't anything I said that is contradictory to scripture, I fail to see problem. Is it semantics? I'm saying the change is made from the inside out, we don't change the outside resolving to put to death the deeds of the flesh, but it is accomplished by the power of the word, learning and growing. I again, stand by what I said, maybe someone who reads these discussions will understand and benefit, there isn't anything heretical with what I said, I just don't think I'm being understood.

In His Love,
