In twenty-five canons the entire powerlessness of nature for good, the absolute necessity of prevenient grace for salutary acts, especially for the beginning of faith, the absolute gratuity of the first grace and of final perseverance, were defined, while in the epilogue the predestination of the will to evil was branded as heresy (cf. Denzinger-Bannwart, nn. 174-200). As Pope Boniface II solemnly ratified the decrees in the following year (530), the Synod of Orange was raised to the rank of an œcumenical council."Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16120027058653022897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-853207333094285361.post-73998688829371716962007-07-17T10:08:00.000-07:002007-07-17T10:08:00.000-07:00Elena,I have been lurking her for quite some time ...Elena,<BR/>I have been lurking her for quite some time now and just want to tell you that I think you are doing good work.

It is the best that Satan has to offer of man-made and man-centered religion that sees salvation by joining grace plus merit, faith plus works, and Christ plus Pope. The theological term is called semi-Pelagianism. This is works righteousness at its finest. This is another gospel (Gal. 1:6-9) which is no gospel at all."<BR/><BR/>This quote says it better than anything I've come across. Salvation IS ONLY through Christ and NOTHING else.
