       So in a rare facebook priivate message discussion I was told I
       was a throw bak to the old monastic scholasticism.  I had to
       actually go look up the exact definition an background of that.
       It appears that was a rather nice complement.
       I admit I prefer the historical and academic side of Theology
       and still not comfortable with the real time application.

       In our youth we build an image of ourselves, then spend a
       lifetime trying to live up to that image.  Why not deconstruct
       that image and build one that is based on one you do not have to
       live up to but can live daily with.

       Have you ever wondered why there is no plain language theology?

       Don't think I have ever heard about a Plain Language? Must be
       something NEW! What people or nation uses this "Plain" Language.
       LOL...
       Have a great evening, my friend.

       I haven't either, but instead of all the terms in jargon and
       dead languages, how about simple straight forwards saying it.

       Okay, I am going out on a limb and hope it starts a conversation
       and not a conflict.   I have heard and read about salvation.
       There is salvation through Grace alone, there is Salvation
       through Faith alone and there is Salvation through both Faith
       and Grace.   All of the reformers appear, to the best research I
       can do, to base their salvation theory’s on Augustine's writings
       on Paul or from Paul’s writings alone.
       I struggle with this.  You see, I have no idea what God will
       ultimately do.  I am not one to assume based on 2000 years old
       inspired writings nor presume they still apply as originally
       intended since they were not intended for humanity to become
       what it has.  That is my internal battle.
       As I see it, no one, absolutely no one can speak for or to what
       God will do with or to us as our spirit/soul passes on.   We
       have all made assumptions on the importance of Grace and Faith.
       We even make assumptions and arguments on what each of those
       means.  So in deep reflection and prayer, I came to the only
       answer I can come to and works for me and how I understand all
       of this.
       
       Live your life in such a way that you leave no doubt to God your
       holiness, grace, and faith is/was according to his word.   That
       way you remove worry about how others interpret and the argument
       over salvation because of grace and/or faith.    I have always
       believed life is to be lived for God’s glory, not for someone
       else’s determination of what God’s glory and love is.  You know
       inside if you are doing this.  So do it: Live your life for God.

       [/quote]Great post brother. I will read it some more and reply
       Saturday, later today now actually. You touched on what everyone
       thinks eventually and we all want answers in this life etc.
       Great topic.
