I think Dr. Gerald may have done a marvelous job
as to the writing and format of his book Addiction
and Grace. As a psychiatrist and teacher with
years of experience, I totally agree with his
statement that all human beings have an inborn
desire of God, whether one is consciously
religious or not. Some people repress this desire
by intentionally or inadvertently hiding it among
the many other interest of life. I have noticed
frequently in my line of work as working closely
with people in the hea...

dearly bought, Peace, by his injured Sovereign
wrought, His Sovereign faster to a tree. For
strife with earth, and hell begins; They hate the
soul that hates his sins. They may assault, they
may distress; It is by the same Christ Jesus that
we have gained access to grace through faith. The
Bible says that God has given every man a measure
of faith (Romans 12: 3), but that measure of faith
does not mean that all men have their eyes and

melody to the song House of the Rising Son, but

generations. In this style, guitars mark the song

Jesus Christ Second Statement
1,369 words
"Cheap grace means grace as a doctrine, a
principle, a system. It means forgiveness of sins
proclaimed as a general truth, the love of God
taught as the Christian conception of God" (43).
Cheap grace does not give God what He deserves
from us; it takes advantage of His grace. The
grace of God cannot and should not be reduced to a
system for getting to heaven. It needs to be a way
of life. "You are not your own; you were bought at
a price. " (1 Corinthians 6: 19 - 20). Christians
are called to do...

Hinduism from which Buddhism grew. Buddhism is a

The Symbiotic Relationship of Violence and Grace
Extending reality outward until it embraced
religious mystery, says Gilbert H. Muller (56), is
something that Flannery O Connor did with
extraordinary finesse. The mystery of grace
captivated her and she used violence to shock both
her characters and readers into making a decision
about grace. O Connor used violence to illustrate
the pointlessness of a purely secular world and
the indispensable need of God to correct the
absurdity of man s conditi...

Purgatory and the Bible Some Christians reject the
Church's affirmation of purgatory because the word

Incarnation. But for all three the teaching is

the Sacred Tradition of the Church, the very
Tradition which Paul places alongside Scripture as
the rule of faith (2 Thes. 2: 15) and praises
