This is not a well thought out interpretation of Paul on my part, I should add.Ken Schenckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09745548537303356655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8355052.post-1134508359463940192005-12-13T16:12:00.000-05:002005-12-13T16:12:00.000-05:00So Paul would say that whatever God does is good, ...So Paul would say that whatever God does is good, purely because he is God. The act itself is sanctified by the fact that God is the one doing it? Is this true also for the trinity? Dr. Bounds seems to say that the Tradition of the church falls on the side that God does not transcend his nature morally nor .... personhoodwise.(couldnt' think of a better term for the what the trinity does)Aaronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13906916515752645256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8355052.post-1134497768755679732005-12-13T13:16:00.000-05:002005-12-13T13:16:00.000-05:00Aye, there's the rub.

If God would have gone through and had Isaac sacrificed we would have a very different view of God than the one he has revealed to us.Aaronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13906916515752645256noreply@blogger.com
