You can only call it "back peddling" if you pretend not to have read the entire post from which you plucked the sentence. Which would be a low-integrity thing to do. And, I see that it is, indeed, what you have done.
So you think that quoting the ENTIRE paragraph would be better?
Okay. Same question on -
There is One God, and One mediator, Jesus Christ. God so loved the world [not Jews or Christians only], that he gave his Son Jesus to die so that .. by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life. (Romans 5:18 KJV) [all men - regardless of religion], so that whosoever believeth on Him [with their heart] as evidenced by good works clearly identified by Jesus, For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in: Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me. (Matthew 25:35-36 KJV), will have everlasting life.
The whole enchelada there.
Its clear to you though.
Do the goats who are condemned to join the devil and his angels in eternal punishment go there with the free gift of justification ?

I undoubtedly could [explain Rajk999's theology to you], having read countless ramrod-consistent and succinctly-crafted Rajk999 posts over the years, yes.
But am I going to explain to you what Rajk999 believes? No. You have a sneering and puffed-up sense of self-importance, sonship.
Asking me to explain Rajk999's theology to you? When he's here for you to talk to whenever you want?
This must be an informal fallacy of some kind; I wonder what it's called.

A point against: he condones slavery. I have taken him to task over this several times.
Sounds like you believe in an ultimate justice and real human dignity.
Can you just tell me where is your ultimate source for these two things ?
I mean the final decision on the reality of these two things in the universe is who?
You?
Them?
Which them?
This is the same tired argument that dj2becker repeated over and over.
We're here, now. We have some evidence. Make a call. That's the best anyone can do, no matter how much they may insist otherwise.
You want to claim you get your morals from a sacred book? The book is just some evidence. You made the call to run with that evidence.
