05-Observations on a Colloquy

The colloquy in question is the In-Depth Studies Colloqu : ‘Is
the Cross Alone Sufficient for Salvation?’, which was held on
the 29th of April 2017 at the Gilbert Regional Library,
Phoenix.1 rian Arnold too the ‘No’ position and Geoff
Vol er too the ‘Yes’.
The issue under debate was the old question of Christ’s
active/passive obedience. Is Christ’s life of obedience under the
law imputed to those who believe, so that the justified sinner is
both cleansed from his sin in the blood of Christ (in simple
terms, the passive obedience of Christ) and accounted righteous,
made positively righteousness, having received the imputation
of Christ’s perfect obedience under the law (in simple terms, the
active obedience of Christ)? rian argued ‘Yes’ Geoff argued
‘No’.
