About the author, Robert
Christian and economist, Chief Economist at infineo, and Senior Fellow with the Mises Institute.
Baus and Murphy dance around a false dichotomy regarding Armenian vs Reform view of Salvation. Though Baus manages to at least take one step in the direction of the Christ, who said: “I have come only for the lost sheep of Israel.” Neither have shown the courage to confront the contradictions that their adoption of the popular, institutional doctrines inherit.
Neither lacks the intelligence to endeavor to become serious enough Scholars to correctly answer this question: Did Jesus say to the Pharises, “You are not of my people because you do not believe in me” or did he actually say “You do not believe in me because you are not of my people”?
The translations matter, and the power of the air (waves) has long ago marched through the institutions.
Be-ware!
I’ll ignore your childish and pompous insults.
We don’t dance around anything. As recorded in John 10:26, Jesus says to the Pharisees and others “you do not believe because you are not among my sheep.”
This is not in any way contradictory to our views.
Loved that Roderick Long series.
