This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

This is in fact the Calvinist doctrine, which is quite different from Catholic one. BTW, "sola gratia" is quite well known as the shibboleth of Protestantism.

Pelagians taught that men DO NOT need grace at all, and that they can save themselves by their own effort.
