Hi Sterling,

As far as I know, this saying belongs to the Reformed theologian, J. H. Alsted, at least in this form. I think this is significant because it suggests the falsehood of the claim that justification is the "Lutheran" (central) dogma and predestination is the "Reformed" (central) dogma.

Social and ethical issues and Evangelicals and Catholics Together is NOT the Gospel.
