Re: Sattler College Turmoil
With respect JM, your demands on others that they answer yes or no and using terms such as telling people they are using “weasel words,” has made it incredibly easy for one to think you are expressing an attitude of what we’d see from a reformed person. Trying to use definitions that are effectivel...

Re: Sattler College Turmoil
I haven't read the whole argument back and forth in S&T, but even I can see the nuance in FotW's position in this sentence alone. It seems to clearly mean that salvation is granted to those who have faith, repent, and are baptized; but that it is only a REFUSAL to participate in the process tha...

Re: Sheetz hit with federal discrimination lawsuit
Actually the line of what constitutes "discrimination on the basis of sex, nationality, religion, etc" is a question that can be decided by the courts, which seems to be the goal here - to convince a court to rule that unnecessary use of background checks is not permissible if it results ...

Re: Sheetz hit with federal discrimination lawsuit
I don't think that the current EEOC cares whether or not Sheetz is compliant with what Federal law currently requires. I think their goal here is to tighten the restrictions on what is considered acceptable use of background checks. The current administration hasn't been shy about that being one of...

Re: Sattler College Turmoil
Are you kidding here? Do you actually know what you are talking about? Are you playing with definitions again? I am using the definitions provided by the "Three Forms of Unity." That is how continental reformed define themselves. Any definition other than this is a definition that is not l...

Re: Sattler College Turmoil
I'm echoing FOTW's position in the S&T articles which say that just as life doesn't begin at birth, so spiritual life doesn't begin at baptism. Life begins at conception. And the work of the Spirit begins prior to baptism. No one can know the moment that happens. But baptism is the end-point of...
