Status Updates From The Same Sex Controversy: D...

Finished reading the Appendix A that deals with the relationship between law and grace in Romans 6:14. In essence, "under law" means "under condemnation"; "under grace" means "under the mastery of Jesus Christ." This is based on the word "master" or "reign" in Romans 6 (based on the versions the authors used). The Bible is replete with references to the Christians duty to obey and keep God's commandments.

The authors deal with other arguments that are not based upon Scripture. These arguments include science and biology – such as “I was born this way.“ In the section I’m currently reading, they deal with why scholars who read the same Bible come to drastically different conclusions. The answer? Some place experience and other factors above the Bible.
