Yes, "Red Letter Christian" means more than just literally the particular words written in red.  But the problem embodied in Ransom's post still applies.  "Red Letter Christianity" prioritizes the Gospel accounts above the Epistles, because Jesus is above Peter, Paul, John, etc.  But Jesus...

Sooo... You don't think it's possible someone might decline to vote for Trump on actual obedience to his or her conscience?  Or is it that you think that people whose consciences tell them not to vote for Trump should just ignore their consciences? Kind of a jackass, arncha?

ALLEGEDLY, n.b.

In the context of the book, particularly the first two chapters, what sort of "works" do you think Jimmy had in mind?

Not a ton of that in my Feed.  I did reply to one person that "Basket of Deplorables" sounds like something I'd order from Amazon. There's a LOT more of the ridiculous jingoistic anti-Kaepernic ranting.  So far I've mostly ignored it.

Right, but even the subsequent generations of Arminians that do believe in the possibility of apostasy do not believe salvation can be "lost."  Well, "Classical" ones at least; Wesleyan beliefs could more easily be interpreted as believing salvation can be "lost," IMO.

Yep.  Well, except for the fact that Arminians don't believe it's possible to "lose" salvation.  But aside from the fact that the whole premise of the spoof is fallacious, quite the hilarious bit of satire.

Like most Pentecostals and other Evangelicals, I would qualify as a "Fundamentalist" in terms of believing in the Five Fundamentals.  But since I'm given to understand that those Five Fundamentals comprise only a small part of "true" Fundamentalism, I'm probably not one at all. OTOH, in the...

I can't decide whether that's hilarious or tragic.  I thought the AoG's "holiness" torah was crazy, but that pile there is above and beyond. Is there a link to an original source for that list?

I'm not at all convinced that the sports scenario cited in the OP really is, as the Title of the thread suggests, the "logical conclusion" of gender equality. I also think there are various truths in Scripture which, if carried to their "logical conclusions" in practice, will crash together...

Do you have clear and explicit Biblical evidence that "proper" Xian music should not be in the loud, boisterous, multi-instrument celebratory style of Psa. 149-150?

Scripture uses the term "modest" (aidos) exactly one time -- 1 Tim. 2:9.  In that context, the primary meaning is that women are not to dress in ways that flaunt their wealth or social status.  By definition, then, any other meaning we ascribe to "modest" comes from outside Scripture. In the...

AFAICT, it is a song of praise in honor of heroes, gods, God, etc.  I don't see anything there about style. I see from 1 Cor. 14, Eph. 5, and Col. 3 that "psalms" are also recommended; presumably these would include those such as Psa. 149-150. I also see from 1 Cor. 14, Eph. 5, and Col. 3 that...

Good points.  I'll adjust my prayers accordingly.

Directing my righteous indignation and prayers of imprecation toward the blue-nose fundies rather than smugly judging those who don't wish to be forced to endure ignominious suffering -- It is well with my soul.
