Very helpful. I note that P.E. Hughes in 88′ and Stott, about the same time, came out in favour of conditional immortality.
This was an helpful post; it still boggles my mind over his “entanglement” over ECT-equivocations and concessions.
To Jim’s failure on this, Rome is exactly one ocean in which we “must” fish. Rome is a lying hell-hole and Jim grandly erred by concession that one shouldn’t evangelize Roman communicants.
Nonetheless, thanks for this.
