Evangelicals and Catholics Together: A Distinctive People

Evangelicals and Catholics Together documents are often problematic. Especially "The gift of salvation". I have to say at first glance I like this one for the most part. I think the reference to "cheap grace" is sloppy. The term is best not used. Since Christ paid the price it is not cheap! What can we add? However over all Christians must strive to be "A Distinctive People".

While Evangelical Protestants and Catholics can agree on many social issues, salvation through Jesus alone can not be compromised. However, I like that Billy Graham works with Catholics in his crusades.

My mother was Catholic and she loved and believed in Jesus. There is no doubt in my mind that she is with Him now even though she did not strictly follow the "born again" formula espoused by Evangelicals.

I agree. As Charles Spurgeon said, "We must pray that their hearts are smarter then their heads"
