Good Angel Scene 5
627 wordsCould Faustus have saved his soul had he repented to God before facing his impending damnation? Coming from a Christian upraising and parochial schooling, I would have to think that Faustus could have saved himself. I was always under the assumption that sincere repentance could be given at any time in ones life for salvation. God is not an angry and merciless being. Being born with original sin, salvation may be gained no matter what the faults of any mortal. In fact, Christ taught of love and ...

Salvation Army Man Life
302 wordsOne dazzlingly bright and sunny morning a dirty, unshaven and unkempt man tentatively enters the sanctuary and takes a seat in the last pew. Those around him noticeably flinch as his pungent odor reaches their nostrils, and slide as far away as possible. No one talks with him, or deigns to even look him in the eye. The man leaves the church, humiliated, with nothing but a negative picture of those who presume to call themselves Christians. This tragedy hits directly home with me, and provides an...

Justification By Faith Sinful Nature
1,302 words... comments so far would be agreeable to a person who advocated that both physical and spiritual circumcision were necessary. But Paul's next comment would be too sweeping: A man is one of God's people if he is inwardly circumcised, since the real circumcision is a spiritual matter, of the heart, "not by the written code'' (verse 29). What value is there in being circumcised? Or, in synonymous terms, what advantage is there in being a Jew? Much, replies Paul (Romans 3: 1 - 2). He does not extol...
