The Highway Forums Announcements What's Happening on the Discussion Board! New "Quotes" forum

We have added a new forum: "Quotes". It is a sub-forum of the "Devotional" forum. Do you have some favorite quotes? Then this new forum is where you can post them to share with others.

"For it is not those who hear the law who are righteous in God's sight, but it is those who obey the law who will be declared righteous." Rom. 2:13

IF you intended to post this as a QUOTE, then it should be in the " QUOTES FORUM".

Now, I cannot but comment on this text, Romans 2:13, to state that the meaning is to be understood from the CONTEXT, that while all men will be judged according to their ability to obey the moral law of God absolutely perfectly, no one has nor can keep the law of God and thus all men are under condemnation... but One, the Lord Christ. And even if it was possible that a person did keep the law perfectly, that person would still be liable to judgment for all men are by nature guilty before God. And, the fact that all men at conception inherit a corrupt (sinful) nature, they being spiritually dead, there is no desire nor ability to keep the law perfectly (Rom 8:8,8; et al).

Therefore, the text cannot be understood that anyone will be justified for keeping the law.

Hey sport. Paul's direct quote is not a question. And secondly the topic's OP is "What is your favorite Quote?". That you holistically disagree with the apostle is your problem. But I do have the freedom under this forums rules to post what you absolutely despise and it is scripture by the way. Have a good day.

1. My name isn't "sport", which btw is rather a rude way of addressing me.

2. It doesn't matter if what you posted is a "direct quote", it doesn't belong HERE in this forum, which is for the announcing of changes and/or additions to the Discussion Board. As I pointed out to you with a direct link included, we have a "QUOTES" forum where quotations are posted.

3. Yes, you have the freedom, albeit limited, to discuss topics which are contrary to the biblical and confessional standards upon which this board embraces.

4. I believe ALL Scripture without hesitation. What is to be disputed and even despised, depending upon the severity of error, is one's interpretation of the Scripture.

5. Pelagianism and semi-Pelagianism, which it would appear to be your position from what you have written thus far are damnable heresies which the Church has condemned for 20 centuries. Thus, you have jumped into a hornet's nest and should expect much strong resistance and rejection of your view(s)>

6. Lastly, I am having a lovely Sabbath Day, thank you.

A little cheeky aren't you?

Second, I can understand that you may not have read the OP properly. Pilgrim posted this as an announcement that he had created a new forum for the purpose of posting quotes. Sorry, but this is not it. If you look in the forums below, you will see one designated "Devotional" and under that "Quotes".

I would like to welcome you to The Highway Discussion Board, just please be courteous.
