General Third Way Café | Is Church an Embarrassment?

Hi Robert,
You mentioned Abraham's faith in God and it was credited to him as righteous. Rightly so. But Abraham did not just say, 'yeah God I believe' and left it at that. Abram did something about it. He packed up his entire family and ACTED on God's word. That is to say, he actually did something, he responded to God's Word. So you can see that Abram's actions matched his faith.

Again Bob, what are you on? What has the Pope got to do with mennonites. You sound like you are having a fit of rage or something.(as did Luther when he wrote).

Hi Robert,

Also who is hating you, certainly not me. When did I ever mention that we have to observe the LAW. What has the position of the Papacy to do with Mennonites.
The essence of Jesus teachings is to love God and to love neighbour. And as I have already mentioned that Christian love is something that we do - not just say.

Beyond the News: Facing Death | John paul and the lutheran church.: in response to your article on John Paul: a pope even protestants could love

The statement that the Lutheran church is not a real church and its pastors are not real pastors was written by Pope Benedict when he was still Cardinal Ratzinger, and it was published by John Paul II. You can find this in the document Dominus Iesus, which is on the Vatican web site. Benedict repeated this position last year. This is not ancient history. This is the current position of the present pope also. Also when the pope was asked to remove the curses on the Lutheran teaching and on Luther which were made at the time of the Reformation, he did not do so.

Hi Bob,
You seem intent on carrying this on, so in order to humour you I will play your 'game' even though 500 years of theological debate has proven it to be futile.
First, why are you preaching to me, the converted?
Secondly, I have made it plainly clear that we cannot earn our salvation.
Thirdly, do not presume to know with whom you are dealing with. Your tone is spiteful and unchristian.
Why do you find it necessary to rewrite scripture here at TWC? Surely the normal thing would be to give scripture verses.We are quite capable of reading them for ourselves.
Are you so full hate that you find it necessary to make an idol of your own beliefs? Where is the Christian love that you say you profess?
I believe, as a Christian, that the word Love, as used by Jesus and the authors of our Christian scriptures, is a verb.Christian love is something we do, not just say.
