You’re St. Melito of Sardis! You have a great love of history and liturgy. You’re attached to the traditions of the ancients, yet you recognize that the old world — great as it was — is passing away. You are loyal to the customs of your family, though you do not hesitate to call family members to account for their sins. Find out which Church Father you are at The Way of the Fathers! |
You’re St. Justin Martyr! You have a positive and hopeful attitude toward the world. You think that nature, history, and even the pagan philosophers were often guided by God in preparation for the Advent of the Christ. You find “seeds of the Word” in unexpected places. You’re patient and willing to explain the faith to unbelievers. Find out which Church Father you are at The Way of the Fathers! |

Mike, I'm fascinated by you asking how union with Christ actually works. I'm not sure why that question needs to be asked. Doesn't union just 'work', by virtue of what it inherently is? Why does some mechanism (such as imputation) need to be present?
Interesting interview. I like how you said how Paul "present us with a “warts and all” picture of the church (especially in Galatians and the Corinthian letters)." I have been doing a Bible study on Acts and Acts presents such an ideal picture of the church, it is refreshing to read Paul again and realize that the church is still made up of the same fallen individuals who need grace.
