You don't intend the "put-downs" but you're sure as heck using them!
I didn't like it at all when you called me "passive-aggressive" way back when and I thought it was uncalled for and unfair. Why insert that malarkey into a bible discussion??
Interestingly, I think it's similar now...you don't INTEND to say "Salvation by works" but that's what is there underneath what you're saying...in my opinion.
Tell me this...is there ANYONE in Christianity that preaches "Salvation by works?" Anyone? I would bet you think there is. So the next question would be....do THEY SAY they're preaching salvation by works? I've never heard anyone, in orthodox Christianity claim to preach "Salvation by works", as in, "Our works save us."
