Let No Man Tear Asunder

Posted on September 26, 2020 by RC

My favorite theologian of all time was known to argue that the defining quality of the theologian is to make distinctions. That’s what we do. We bring clarity through precision, precision through distinction. That man who may well be my … Continue reading →

Ask RC- What does 1 John 2:2 – “And He Himself is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the whole world” mean?
