The Highway Forums General Discussion Theology Discussion Forum Is the church in crisis

No, I am not saying YOU made that statement but rather someone else did and you relayed it here: Now, as to the quote, the word that should be given much scrutiny, especially knowing how these FV heretics communicate (read: deception) is "essential" doctrine. So, playing the Devil's advocate, I could assent to the basic statement that, 'justification is by faith alone in Christ alone' and STILL advocate FV, i.e., adding that it is faith alone AND by works (the keeping of the covenant law) that saves. This is very much akin to the Roman Catholic doctrine of justification. Given how Wilson has written on such issues over many years and how convoluted (by intention I assert) he states his beliefs, I have absolutely no confidence that this man has actually repented and has totally rejected all or anything of Federal Vision, NPP, ad nauseam. The Evil One is a master of deception and counterfeiting the truth to lead people astray and away from the actual truth of God's word.
