Legalistic thinking puts the cart before the horse. People are saved FOR good works. No one is saved BY their own good works, unless you believe, as some seem to, that people can acheive the holiness of God if they only work a little harder. If you have caught yourself in a good work perhaps you should think of it as a gift God gave you and not a gift you gave God. We are all beggars before God and no one has anything to brag about.

Dude, the meaning of civilization is that not EVERYTHING has to be explained or justified. There are some things — indeed, many things — that the civilized person just “gets.” If you don’t understand what’s wrong with stoning, or any form of the death penalty, for adultery, I’m not going to lower myself to explain it to you. You’re a fanatic and a barbarian who is unworthy of discourse.
If you need to look up “discourse” in the dictionary, don’t blame me ...
Good one!
Oh my sides... to be called a “fanatic” by the guy who can’t bother to propound an arguement, but rests his whole case in accusing me of being a barbarian.
Thank you, sir. This shot of irony is a true brightspot in my day. :)
bill clinton’s an adulterer,
and he used to get stoned.
I’m sorry to have given you a bright spot. You don’t deserve it.
Maybe you should move to Iran.
