@TomHicks2LCF So as long as two Christians are godly they must marry each other?

A former adulteress who repented of her sins is a Christian. To deny that she is someone a godly man may faithfully marry is to deny the power of God in the gospel.

If someone argues that a former promiscuous woman is "damaged goods" and questions whether a Christian young man should marry her, remember Rahab. She was a Canaanite prostitute but became a mother in the lineage of Jesus. God redeemed her, cleansed her, and Salmon married her.

One reason Paul said we should not continue in sin is because he understood that grace does not destroy nature.
What shall we say then? Are we to continue in sin that grace may abound?

I’d rather one of my children marry someone who was sexually immoral before they got saved, repented, came to Christ, and is walking in faithful obedience than any of these self-righteous people who don’t either believe or understand the power of the gospel to transform lives!

You could say whatever you want about any of the Christian saints, popes, martyrs, reformers, church fathers, venerated dead. Heck, you can even mock Christ on Joe Rogan's podcast and not lose any Evangelical podcast listeners.
But Corrie Ten Boom is off limits. Interesting.

@PerfInjust FYI it wasn’t DeYoung’s syllogism (though he seemed to agreed with it), he was quoting a syllogism Leeman used in his book.

We just finished Lamentations in Family worship this morning.

My wife just passed her US citizenship exam.
She moved here from Canada 7 years ago, raised 3 kids, and passed it on the first try.
Meanwhile I’ve been here 41 years and couldn’t tell you half of what she studied.
Couldn’t be more proud. Welcome home, babe. 🇺🇸

Just imagine how much more American this nation would have been if these people could have saved us from letting Bob Hope in…how much stronger if we had barred Albert Einstein, etc.

Mark Driscoll, you coward, you refuse interviews from me, block me, and now selectively edit me (I know you didn't do the edit, some poor, terrified intern did it) — point to anything I've ever written or spoken that endorses progressive politics of progressive theology.
You won't.
Because you can't.
Now when you get the courage for it, let's have that 1:1 conversation — on the record. I'll live stream it. Let's go tough guy.
