A Note on Justification (of free grace)

A note from Gershner's lecture on justification

For justification

-those whom God effectually called he freely justified by counting their sins as paid for Christ's sake alone-Justification by Christ alone...justification by faith alone-not imputing obedience of faith as righteousness, instead it is by imputing the righteousness and sacrifice of Christ to themselves.

Faith-justification-works

not

Faith-works-justification (Rome's error)

It's not a work of faith that saves you, it is through unification through faith with Jesus Christ

not

Faith-justification-minus works (Protestant error)

Neccessary works vs. meritorious works; no works are meritorious

Elect Infants that Die in Infancy are Saved

All elect infants that die in infancy are saved. It also may be that all that die in infancy are of the elect. (paraphrasing Gershner's WCF interp). Maybe that applies to those aborted as well.

Does Planned Pandahood Harvest Body Parts of Aborted or Infant Dead Pandas?

All elect infants that die in infancy are saved. It also may be that all that die in infancy are of the elect. (paraphrasing Gershner's WCF interp). Maybe that applies to those aborted as well. Humans have better opportunities that wildlife-those innocents are not saved, yet neither are they doomed to eternal hell.

Obama Foreign Policy-Expansion of Muslim Threats

After seven years of the Obama administration even blind men can begin to discern the shape of the President's version of the Democrat Donkey of foreign policy. In his own modest way, like John F. Kennedy, and Harry Truman before him, the President has stimulated conflict in the second or third world generating hundreds of thousands or millions of casualties while increasing risk of nuclear attack on the U.S.A. It was an achievement subtly developed though-it began with a call for liberation of the oppressed in the Cairo speech like a muezzin's call to arms and insurrection.

The Arab spring began two administration's worth of civil unrest and revolution across the Middle East. As has been joked Iraq now is a state safe for terrorists. the Islamic State has grown and is expanding presently. http://blog.acton.org/archives/81004-5-facts-about-islamic-states-theology-of-rape.html

The President's continuing demand that Syria's President Assad step down stimulated a civil war that has generated hundreds of thousands of casualties and millions of displaced persons. A flood of Muslim Yet migrants from the war have joined those of Africa to bring Muslims to Europe wherefore some that are terrorists and jihadis will subvert security and increase costs for decades. Government armories that were taken over by rebels have provided terrorists from Syria to Libya with explosives, ordinance and demolition implements. Afghanistan has experienced a series of setbacks after the Presidential push to homosexualize the military kicked American moral pretenses regarding Muslim allies in the teeth.

The President has brought more series issues to fruition in his second term, some of which were enabled by the success in thwarting decades of careful American foreign policy in the first. While former Sect. of State Baker negotiated carefully with an Assad, the Obama administration simply supported war and provided training and money to build the raging conflict. At the same time the President signed a pact with Iran that provides immediate financial and trade relief by the tens of billions of dollars; Iran will be able to fund the Assad government and provide weapons and personal to sustain itself in its battle against American encouraged and Saudi-backed rebels, and also to battle against ISIS. President Obama ostensibly signed off with the Iran deal that will soon allow them to buy unlimited conventional weapons as sanctions end, in order to support the fight against Sunni ISIS. In short, the President has a non-rational, confused foreign policy that generally supports Islamic military and terror expansion and increased arms sales.

Beyond the Syrian issue the President has supported adverse relations with Russia and annexation of Ukraine-all of Ukraine, to Western interests. Ukraine has for most of history been a part of Russia-to skunk Russia is to ask for long-term enmity and distrust. Russia needs to have at least the land east of the Dnieper. Conflict may then wither away. The world needs peaceful relations with Russia in order to slow down global warming that will increase with significant development of the Arctic basin. Russia, the U.S.A. and Canada together can act to make the entire Arctic basin a development free-existential habitat for humanity continuity zone. If they fail at that, they may be doomed (I personally would like to move to Mars if it gets bad, and if their is free transport, housing and shelter-or at least good job prospects).

An Excellent Accordion (poem)

When a builder of metaphors

brought time and space together

decorating dreams with temporal ocean waves

spinning strings of infinite dimensions

like cat's cradles

that was a show

If every Universe is an excellent accordion

compact as a singularity

in the beginning

where modge panc-mind plans of God

said ‘let there be light’

From the center moving wherewithal

sparks of expansion may grow

like polkas and frescoes over expanses

of compact dots of space and time weathering

360 degrees of notation

the singularity of information

nearly nothingness centered in-itself

as potential symphonies still unsounded

are blues and polkas unbounded

-flickering dreams unfounded

except in ordination  of God

Destinations of Multiverse

metaphors being more than nothingness

whild spacetime expands every place

reaching into every possible Universe

stretching filaments of structure everywhere

music of  spheres, of stars,

of worlds that’d never been

gave a disconformal, conformal pace

built lighter, and heavier, than air

In the midst upon a roundish world

appeared fallen mankind with sin unfurled

eradicating nature for lusty simple goals

of loutish immorality fancy interiors swole

swinish nature to kill the spirit

twas never possible that none would jeer it

save for the elect whom with grace that were saved

Information arisen from nothing becomes complexity

virtually simplifies existence like chords

Isaac Newton pondered and Einstein knew

information stretched with Shannon entropy

is a thin cloud

The Word never created or destroyed

recycles pasts of providence

with black holes penultimates waiting return

unto the one with all complexity in simplest form

from nothing to everything to nothingness

everything that was drawn out like manifest wealth

actualized as diamonds

find transitions to dust

discovering present, future, past

Metaphorical red shifts when chords dissipate energy

crunching colors like rivers running down

-when the extent of spacetime returns through itself

to end infinite, unbound

signpost information returns to nothingness

slipping away like diminishing tsunami ripples in darkness

decreasing as the Lord increases

eternal light for-others

an excellent accordion

fades its tunes

into new song.
