Is this The British North American Act?
Yeah? (I think we can both agree it is.)
Does that explain the entire document that tells all we ever needed to know about Canada?
Silly question, right? No. It really did describe Canada in one particular way, but it doesn't explain all there is to how your country is run, right?
Same problem with Romans. It is the Christian Acts/Constitution/how we're supposed to work. Paul starts in Romans 1 at a good spot and works out what God has done, is doing, will do forever. And he finished it with the particulars. It is to Christianity what the Constitution is to Americans. It is the basic treatise on what our nation (the Church rather than any given country) was built. (Sorry, would have used your country's treatise, but y'all kind of did it through a bunch of different papers, so it confused me too much to understand the basic treatise of your country.)
You took a tiny piece out of context. When you nix what was said up to that point and then what was said after that point, you're left with the same confusion I had learning your country only has four provinces. (Eek! You lost a huge part of your country. lol) So, yes grace is involved, but, again, it's not about grace. It's about God!
