Which manuscripts constitute the scriptures?

by ~JM~ on 12-01-2009 at 10:21 PM
Not a huge fan of Doug Wilson's soteriology but I think he makes a valid point,

"This witness is not offered by the Church as “something to think about” or as a mere “suggestion.” The testimony of the Church on this point is submissive to Scripture, but authoritative for the saints. For example, if an elder in a Christian church took it upon himself to add a book to the canon of Scripture, or sought to take away a book, the duty of his church would be to try him for heresy and

Phil Johnson on Christ Being Made Sin Only Figuratively

by ~JM~ on 10-16-2009 at 06:22 PM
I had no idea Dr. Ella held to this view:
Christ knew no sin but He certainly knew our sins and suffered under them in His agonising punishment. He certainly carried our sins. The Bible is even stronger in its condemnation of our vicarious substitute, Christ. He was made sin itself as if He had sucked all the sin of all the elect into Himself and was so full of it, He was called ‘Sin’ itself because sin was no where else. This was the method prophesied by Daniel that Christ would put an end to sin.
