Abigal's progeny deftly warns: "D, I recommend you NOT get into a discussion with JD. He will try to snowjob you with a literal flurry of words, lots of words. When you sort through them and see where he's coming from, reply back to him, he will deny he ever said any such thing. "I definitely respect your advice and will certainly heed it. I don't particularly care for fellows who portray God as some cruel, arbitrary, unjust deity that capriciously punishes his own innocent, "beloved" son in whom he claimed he "was well pleased" to allow "snow covered dung" to avoid "reaping what they have sown," in any case. Abigal's progeny beautifully paints a picture of DEAD reformed theology: "It's all about me, me, me, mine, mine, and elect, and chosen, and saved forever, and free gift, and all these words they use like hermaneutics, exegesis, sovereignty, regeneration, justification, dry doctrine, mostly all false doctrine at that." You know, this just may be the second most damning argument of reformed theology that I have ever come across. I have always found their rhetorical sermons rather dry (many here on sermonaudio fit into this category) and their entire service very cold and lifeless, ritualistic, and completely lacking in spirit (as well as spiritual gifts). |

Here's God's take on "educated" ministers: "For the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men. For consider your calling, brothers: not many of you were wise according to worldly standards, not many were powerful, not many were of noble birth. But God chose what is foolish in the world to shame the wise; God chose what is weak in the world to shame the strong;"There is a reason why Jesus had no formal education folks!!! I'll take a Spirit-filled, blameless, saintly, and self-denying God-ordained spiritual elder over a seminary-trained, shameful gain-seeking, Greco-Roman philosophy spouting, pulpiteer any day!!! |

Discerned Believer,
We are well aware that the works of the Old Covenant law (circumcision, animal sacrifices, feast days, Sabbath worship, dietary requirements, Mosaic penal systems, ritual washings) have absolutely no power to make one righteous, that is, to justify. Paul found the class of Judaizing Christians to be a particularly pernicious problem as the context of the entire letter to Galatia makes rather clear. Romans 3 is also dealing with the same problem among the contingent of Jewish Christians who felt some type of superiority to the Gentiles because they had the circumcision of Abraham and the Law.However, that being said, OBEDIENCE to Jesus Christ is the sole criterion for ultimate salvation which is something altogether different from the 'works of the law' that the passages you cited dealt with. For Jesus Christ, the Judge of the 'quick and the dead' warns that "the Son of Man is going to come with his angels in the glory of his Father, and then he will repay each person ACCORDING TO WHAT HE HAS DONE." It did not say according to his election, or his "Sinner's Prayer," or to Christ's "imputed righteousness," or his acceptance of 'cheap' grace, or belief in Calvin's Institutes, or membership in New Age Antinomian Baptist churches, but rather his deeds!!! |
