1 | Problems w/ Carnal Christian Teaching? | Rom 7:14 | Radioman2 | 92052 | ||
'The Lordship Controversy and the Carnal Christian Teaching (Part 2)' 'Ernest Reisinger' 'Let me give a short review of our last study on the Carnal Christian teaching: '. The "Carnal Christian" teaching is primarily based on an erroneous interpretation of a single passage of Scripture (1 Cor. 3:1-4). '. The "Carnal Christian" teaching perverts many other doctrines of the Christian faith. '. The "Carnal Christian" teaching separates the two main doctrines of the Christian faith--justification and sanctification. '. The "Carnal Christian" teaching separates the new covenant by making the act of submission to Christ optional--what God has joined together let no man or teaching put asunder. '. The "Carnal Christian" teaching makes holiness, obedience and discipleship optional. See John 10:26-28; 14:21-23; 15:10; 1 Pet. 1:155,16; Heb. 12:14; Titus 2:10-14. '. The "Carnal Christian" teaching breeds antinomianism and gives a false standard of what a Christian really is. '. The "Carnal Christian" teaching is the mother of many of the second-work-of-grace errors. '. The "Carnal Christian" teaching actually teaches two ways to heaven: one, the carnal-Christian way and two, the spiritual-Christian way--whichever your prefer. '. The "Carnal Christian" teachers ignore the biblical distinction between the grounds of salvation and the grounds of assurance. '. The "Carnal Christian" teaching breeds a false spirituality and Pharisaism in the so-called "spiritual Christians" who have measured up to some man-made standard of spirituality. There ought to be no professed "spiritual Christians," much less "super-spiritual" ones! George Whitefield, a man who lived very close to his Savior, prayed all his days, "Let me begin to be a Christian." And another Christian has truly said, "In the life of the most perfect Christian there is every day renewed occasion for self-abhorrence, for repentance, for renewed application to the blood of Christ, for application of the rekindling of the Holy Spirit." 'Many are comfortable living sinful lives while hiding behind a teaching that is not biblical, comfortably going to hell on a false teaching.' ____________________ The Lordship Controversy and the Carnal Christian Teaching (Part 2) Ernest Reisinger (To whom it may concern: Please do not ask me to explain what Reisinger means.

Praise the Lord Radioman2, Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. 13And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are naked and open to the eyes of Him to whom we must give account. Since the word of God is a two edged sword, it not only cuts when we swing it out; it can also cut us when we pull it in. What I am getting at is that the word of God is the key to cutting evil out of our thoughts and intents of our heart. I don't know about you, but I welcome His cutting me as a skilled brain surgeon removes tumors. The reason I am saying this is because, when taken as a whole, the word of God is extremely balanced against sin. When we seek out all that God's word has to say about any matter, the Word staightens us out in areas that we did not realize we even had a problem. This is why it is important to cross reference scriptures before coming to conclusions. I don't trust myself to understand how God feels about a subject until I have examined many scripture passages. Remember that God's thoughts are far to high over our thoughts: Isaiah 55 8"For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways," says the LORD. 9"For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways, And My thoughts than your thoughts. This is why the Diocese of New Hampshire of the Episcopal Church cannot see the need for repentance. All they see is a loving Jesus with open arms. They have closed their eyes and hardened their hearts. They forget that God is also the great rightious Judge that deals justice and expects and requires perfection. They will not abandon their own thoughts as the Word requests: Isaiah 55 6Seek the LORD while He may be found, Call upon Him while He is near. 7Let the wicked forsake his way, And the unrighteous man his thoughts; Let him return to the LORD, And He will have mercy on him; And to our God, For He will abundantly pardon. I am very disturbed that more true Christians do not speak out against adultery in there own churches. Many seem to hate the self soul searching that repentance messages bring. They say "you are judging! For all have sinned and fallen short!" They say "what do you mean by shaming them? That is not loving!" Well it is "not loving" to let someone burn up when you could have told them that the house was on fire! Sorry Radioman2, but the preacher in me must speak out. God bless you, Pastor Glenn |
