D A Waite The Bible is silent as to "HIS WHOLE LIFE" as forming any basis whatever for "THE REDEMPTIVE EFFICACY OF CHRIST'S WORK." It was as the "LAMB OF GOD" that He could "take away the sin of the world" (John 1:29), and this "LAMB" was crucified and shed His precious blood (1 Peter 1:18-19) as the atonement and sacrifice for the sins of the whole world! "Without the shedding of blood is no remission" (Hebrews 9:22). To say that Christ's "WHOLE LIFE" had anything to do with the "REDEMPTIVE EFFICACY OF CHRIST'S WORK" is to partake of the HERESY of modernistic religious APOSTASY!

I am somewhat perplexed as to the "offense" of the above, Kevin. I understand that you do not hold to the same view as I, concerning the inward nature of Christ's humanity, but Westcott's belief seems to be a "true" even under your view. What would it have done to the redemptive efficacy of Christ's work if he had sinned at some point throughout his life? Was it not via his whole obedience that he fulfilled the Law? It seems to me that obedience to the Law was very much a part of his redemptive work. Do you disagree?Bill----- Original Message -----From: Lance MuirSent: Saturday, February 19, 2005 6:29 AMSubject: Re: [TruthTalk] vessels meet for masters useYes, unequivically!

Westcott: "My faith is still wavering. I cannot determine how much we must believe; how much, in fact, is necessarily required of a member of the Church." (Life, Vol.I, p.46).Westcott: "After leaving the monastery we shaped our course to a little oratory...It is very small, with one kneeling-place; and behind a screen was a 'Pieta' the size of life (i.e. a Virgin and dead Christ)...I could not help thinking on the grandeur of the Romish Church, on her zeal even in error, on her earnestness and self-devotion, which we might, with nobler views and a purer end, strive to imitate. Had I been alone I could have knelt there for hours." (Life, Vol.I, p.81).Westcott: "All stigmatise him (a Dr. Hampden) as a 'heretic,'...I thought myself that he was grievously in error, but yesterday I read over the selections from his writings which his adversaries make, and in them I found systematically expressed the very strains of thought which I have been endeavouring to trace out for the last two or three years. If he be condemned, what will become of me?" (Life, Vol.I,p.94).Hort: "But the book which has most engaged me is Darwin. Whatever may be thought of it, it is a book that one is proud to be contemporary with. I must work out and examine the argument in more detail, but at present my feeling is strong that the theory is unanswerable." (Life, Vol.I, p.416).Hort: "I entirely agree - correcting one word - with what you there say on the Atonement, having for many years believed that "the absolute union of the Christian (or rather, of man) with Christ Himself" is the spiritual truth of which the popular doctrine of substitution is an immoral and material counterfeit...Certainly nothing can be more unscriptural than the modern limiting of Christ's bearing our sins and sufferings to His death; but indeed that is only one aspect of an almost universal heresy." (Life, Vol.I, p.430).Hort: "I have been persuaded for many years that Mary-worship and 'Jesus'-worship have very much in common in their causes and their results." (Life, Vol.II, p.50).
