    [/qb]No ... I have no idea what you are talking about.

    Able to do what?

    Because there is sin in the world and the human mind is affected by sin (noetic affects of sin). God has not seen fit to overrule all of that.

    He has revealed his truth in Scripture for all to see. Some bring their own ideas to it and redefine God's choosing in strange ways. Some just don't like the truth it gives about the affects of sin on the mind and person of man. But the truth remains the truth, even when some don't accept it. The Bible is consistent; it does not give conflicting messages. It simply needs to be believed.

    Amen, Wes!

    Ok then if the Law could not save them, and they weren't saved by faith, are you saying they were saved by works? If so, where does Scripture say this?

    Actually, it was The Council of Nicea. Don't ever let people fool you into thinking the Catholic Church we know today was the same as it was back then.
    Here is some interesting info on some of this that you might enjoy reading:

    Matt talks about them all there.
