Things New and Old

Ancient truths revealed in the Scriptures are often forgotten, disbelieved or distorted, and therefore lost in the passage of time. Such ancient truths when rediscovered and relearned are 'new' additions to the treasury of ancient truths.

Christ showed many new things to the disciples, things prophesied by the prophets of old but hijacked and perverted by the elders and their traditions, but which Christ reclaimed and returned to His people.

Many things taught by the Apostles of Christ have been perverted or substituted over the centuries. Such fundamental doctrines like salvation by grace and justification have been hijacked and perverted and repudiated by sincere Christians. These doctrines need to be reclaimed and restored to God's people.

There are things both new and old here. "Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things"
2Ti 2:7.

Poisonous milk from John's Mad-Udder

John MacArthur yesterday on Grace to You plainly said:
"when you accept Christ you receive the imputed righteousness of Christ" and he calls himself a five-point Calvinist. Anyone saying this and saying he is five points is inconsistent and confused! Good morning America, rise and shine and give man the glory, children of Pelagius!!! (copied from Charles Page)

He who has a pea mind to think and reason, let us reason together for just a wee bit.

A man is conceived and born in his native state of sin and condemnation. He is in his native un-justified state, i.e. without the imputed righteousness of Jesus Christ. In his native state, he is DEAD in trespasses and sin. He is dead in the sense of utterly incapable of performing any activity that brings himself to God. But he is very much alive in his rebellion and enmity against God!

If a man in that state is able to accept Christ in order to receive the imputed righteousness of Christ, then every dead Americans can eat french fries!

God bless John Mad-udder!

Bitter milk is POISONOUS milk... and that's what John Mad-Udder is spewing forth, and many are addicted to it!
Going off for our mid-week bible study... at Acts 6 this evening.

I preached from Acts 6 this past Sunday. Please share your thoughts with me if you have time 🙂

John M's lordship salvation doctrine is not a far leap to Pelagius, IMO.

The 'reformed' folks rightly say that their regeneration precedes faith, BUT always insist that their LEGAL justification, the actual imputation of Christ's righteousness to them follows their act of believing Jesus Christ.

And no matter how hard you try to explain to them their DEFORMED view, they refuse to see the plain contradiction in their understanding.

In their above understanding, they are saying that an UN-justified person is already regenerated, or a regenerated person is still UN-justified, i.e. still in his native state of death and condemnation. How about a reformed view that a man in his native state of death and condemnation is also at the same time regenerated and able to believe IN ORDER to be justified, i.e. have Christ's righteousness imputed to him!

How could an unjustified man be regenerated? Sin brings condemnation and death. Righteousness is a prerequisite to justification and life. Without the imputation of Christ's righteousness, there is no justification and no life. Condemnation and death remain.

Justification is the ground of regeneration: the IMPUTATION of righteousness at the cross, and the APPLICATION of righteousness to an elect personally at the effectual call to grace and salvation is the GROUND of regeneration.

Look here for the Biblical Order of Salvation in contrast to the Deformed Disorder of Salvation of the Calvinists.
