Let's remove the tense, and focus on the subject...

What SHALL provide remission? Believing on Him.....

How are our sins remitted? Through faith in His blood......

Make sense?

Well, I'm glad you can at least admit that you're confused. I'm sure that truth DOES confuse you.

I have GBTB for Logos

When we get down to where we're debating the meaning of the term 'eis' with multiple pages of doctrinal papers, we're in trouble, in my opinion.
This article is significant because the whole claim against Acts 2:38 is a grammatical one that according to perhaps today's most predominant greek scholar, does not exist.

Second, it seems the only argument against Acts 2:38 meaning what it actually says to begin with is "But it contradicts my theology on salvation", which happens to be the same reason Ive heard against a Oneness view of Jn 1:1

I appreciate Wallace's honesty with the text

Glad to hear you admit that women's legs catch your eyes. God can help you with that, you know. He delivers and sets free!!
I hope my husband is NEVER delivered!

Really...do you think God delivers men from their natural attraction to the female form? You actually believe that??????

God gives us boundaries and helps us out with self-control, but He doesn't take away natural attraction anymore than He stops us from being hungry for food.

So, unconfuse me, oh wise one....I pretty much spelled out my understanding of the scriptures, you haven't done that once......just a few drive by insults.

Show your work, student!

If BT is looking at women's legs (plural), yes, there's a problem and that would need a deliverance. Surely you would agree with that.

The easy fix is to just make shaving legs a sin
