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.

Sola Fide and Heretics

1. There is a 'sola fide' that I reject as the lie from the pit of hell.
2. There is a 'sola fide' that I receive as the truth taught by Apostle Paul.
Which sola fide do you believe?

#Ignoramus #Heretic

Facebook reminded me of this post on May 24, 2012.

A Mr. Diaz called me a heretic; the RBs of Malaysia had done the same earlier in 2004 for similar reasons.

I left two comments as indicated in the screenshot; they are as follows:

Perhaps you can show us that you even understood my position.
1. There is a 'sola fide' that I reject as the lie from the pit of hell.
2. There is a 'sola fide' that I receive as the truth taught by Apostle Paul.

Now, please show us that you have read and understood my positions on the above two statements. Otherwise, you are just speaking ignorantly... and that is shameful enough!

There is a sola fide that is a lie of the devil and comes from the pit of hell, even this popular fiction about justification before God: "righteousness is imputed to a man through his believing." And this is what Nathaniel and the likes of him believe... whether they are of the reformed or Arminian tent. 

That view is just plain erroneous for this nonsense:
- it implies that a man without the imputed righteousness, therefore still under just condemnation and death, is capable of believing...
- it implies that a man without the imputed righteousness is already regenerated and capable of believing...
- If you need more, let me know!!!

A man is JUSTIFIED by the righteousness of Christ alone
- That's the LEGAL justification: the righteousness of Christ IMPUTED IMPUTED IMPUTED to him at the cross.

A man is JUSTIFIED by the grace of God alone:
- That is VITAL justification: how the righteousness of Christ is APPLIED APPLIED APPLIED freely to a man personally by the grace of God

A man is JUSTIFIED by faith alone:
- This is EXPERIENTIAL justification: believing in Jesus Christ is the manner how a CHILD OF GOD [ALREADY justified, regenerated and adopted, and given the Spirit of adoption...] EXPERIENCES EXPERIENCES EXPERIENCES the blessedness of his justified state by God's free grace. There is NO NO NO accounting of righteousness here at all.

A biblical distinction is the essence of sound theology.
