Vikings Recap

Recapping the last game against the Vikings....

We had a nice win over the Vikings 24-14. Romo was doing quite well the first half, but did next to nothing in the second half. He hurt his hamstring and I really wonder if he could throw the ball more than 20 years. The cowboys had to rely on the run in the second half. Marion Barber did a great job, rushing for a touchdown and also stringing together a series of important first downs late in the game. Two big plays canceled each other, the Vikings running back a fumble and the Cowboys running back a blocked kick.

The Cowboys defense played good but not great. Roy Williams finally made a play!!! The pass rush looked great and Hatcher forced Adrian Peterson to fumble. Nice to see Hatcher develop. Gregg Ellis did well in his first start, getting 2 sacks. He's got 4 on the year, but looks to pressure Ware who has 6 but with 5 more games than Ellis. With Ware, Ellis, and Spencer we should get the QB all day.

The game ball goes to the Vikings coach. He started Tavaris Jackson as Vikings QB, who looks like he doesn't have a cue as to what he needs to do. The coach also only gave Adrian Peterson 12 carries. With a back like that, he should get 20+ a game. This one could have been a lot closer.

Responsibility - Evaluation of Arminian Grounds for LFW

Outline of Edwards Arguments in part V.I Arminians say if something causally predetermines our choices, we are not responsible. But responsibility is not the cause of choices, it’s in the nature of choices If responsibility is in the cause of choices, we search through an infinite regression of causes, and nothing is ever responsible. My Response Point 1 is close, but not quite accurate. While our actions can be predetermined, our choices cannot be. Choice cannot be predetermined, else it’s not choice. Predeterminism leave us with only one possible action, but choice requires alternatives (i.e. more than one). A “predetermined choice” is self-contradictory, implying we can choose something we can’t choose. So we think Calvinists are inconsistent for saying we can choose. Also, Arminians agree that we are responsible for our choices. Even though we deny we are responsible for things we are causally predetermined to do, we are not saying responsibility lies in the cause of choices,

The Equivocation of Regeneration

In the order of salvation, which comes first, faith or regeneration? Before we can answer that, don't we first need to understand what regeneration is? In this post I plan on contrasting Hodge's view with Arminius'. Hopefully, in the process we can clarify the issue of monergism vs. synergism. Hodge’s Order of Salvation Common Grace – a “moral suasion” that brings good works, but is insufficient to enable justifying faith Regeneration – God’s supernatural and immediate change of a person’s nature Vocation – same Gospel as the one in common grace, but it’s effectual on the changed man. Conversion – faith and repentance “first conscious exercise of the renewed soul” Justification Two Definitions of Regeneration Hodges provides two alternative definitions of regeneration. Sometimes regeneration means just the imparting of life, other times it means the whole process including the things coming before and after the imparting of life. 1 Hodge says these two difference sense
