Don't want you to
be bored JD; don't you like the variety here? I'd say we agree on the
important basics.
The point of course for asking for a list is to make it clear that there is no list. That is the point. It is Christ. He is the list. We don't have to be right or agree on anything else - actually, we have to agree on Christ.
Which is impossible outside of His
Word. Have you ever sung "At Calvary" JD? 2nd Stanza "By God's Word at
last my sin I learned; Then I trembled at the law I'd spurned. Till my guilty
soul imploring turned, to Calvary .... Something to think about.
If the New Covenant is
the individualized relationship of God in Christ with man (Jere.
31:31-34), then our relationship -- the assembly of the
saints -- is all about encouraging the others to love and good
works.
You and the others speak of "essentials," speak of the "necessity" of corporate agreement, accuse those who disagree with being controlled by the "Accuser," yet, consistently refuse to offer any comment, biblical or otherwise, as to what this agreement includes. Judgment without content JD

No JD, only those who consistently accuse
are in cahoots with the "accuser" - and the
agreement includes obedience to all of God's Word without
"transliteration". judyt
JD, only the legalists among you want a list. The non-legalist Conservatives realize that if you have the Holy Spirit in your heart you donât need a list. And if we gave you a list it would only give you something else to argue about. Izzy
