    Gospel Confusion...

    "salvation via faith rather than via circumcision" You are trying to make this say what you want it to say.... Paul is talking to Jews that thought that their "Jewishness" was enough for salvation.... He was saying that their Jewishness was not sufficient for salvation, that faith is...

    Gospel Confusion...

    Thanks for the reply..... Reading this in context, though, it's pretty plain that he is responding to an issue in the Corinthian church, or body of believers. Some of the believers were trying to say they were "better" than the others because of who baptized them.... "I was baptized by...

    I've always liked the "feel" of Pachmayr better. Most Hogues feel too "slim" for me. At least on revolver grips. Might not be the same on grip panels for an auto...

    I am beginning to get more comfortable with my S&W Shield in .45 ACP.... this was today, 7 yards, one shot at a time from the low ready position. Pull the gun up to eye level and fire.... I also shot the new SP101.... these were moderately warm .357 loads at 7 yds... 158gr plated bullet at...

    I would say that risk is about zero. This is a legit load from the manufacturer's website load data. Similar to loading the 38 special with small charges of bullseye powder for target loads.

    I have a hone that I can use, if I choose to do so... still deciding.... That charge of AA 5 is nowhere near filling. It's like using Unique. It doesn't appear to fill more than 1/3 of the empty space, once the bullet is seated. I was looking for a moderate load to use with cast, pc'd...

    I have found that my new GP100 has pretty "tight" chambers. I'm finding that if I don't use the Lee Factory Crimp Die for handguns, my reloads tend to stick in the chambers, requiring me to tap on the ejector rod to break them free. I even bought a box of factory ammo for it to test, and they...

    Movies and TV shows to avoid

    Avoid "The View" like the plague. Avoid CBS, ABC, MSNBC, etc Avoid Jimmy Kimmel all shows like those will rot your brain.... Nearly every show on any of the streaming services actively promotes and legitimizes gay/lesbian relationships. I don't watch much TV anymore. The list of shows that...

    My new Shield in .45 is showing a lot of promise, accuracy wise. Both with factory loaded fmj rn bullets, and some of my reloads using "hi-tek" coated cast bullets.... this is a pic of the coated bullet, and then targets shot at 7 yds standing with each bullet styles...7 rounds each target...

    yes.... the BEST kind. :D I've been to the other one... back in 2001. Right in the middle of gay pride week. Haven't felt the need or desire to go back.... although the pier and Alcatraz were pretty ok.
