O Sacred Head Now Wounded

http://www.radicalgraceradio.com

Why can't you stop talking about yourselves for just long enough to notice your Savior? It's a good thing you're saved by God's mercy and grace, because if it were really about "Following" Jesus like you think you should, you'd all be lost.

Bless you, Mr. Chemnitz - from one former reed bruised by Baptists.

[1689Baptist]

cont... Also testing oneself goes for all who claim salvation, a person could look to me like the perfect saint, but be nothing more than a blind Pharisee. I do not want to break the bruised reed or snuff out the smoldering wick, but I also dont want someone going to hell being deceived.

@waltherchemnitz

I was not talking about testing other people, I was talking about testing ourselves(myself and you test youself) I am not setting myself up as judge over other people, but I also in love have a fear for other peoples souls. A pastor IN LOVE should deal with those in his church who claim to be saved that are living in open sin to test themselves to see if the be in the faith.

[waltherchemnitz]

@1689Baptist and if you test someone's faith, and you get it wrong... what does that make you? And accuser of the brethren. Read Zechariah 3 for God's view of such.

I don't like pointing these things out, but for every believer who has had some fool thrust his or her hands into the workings of the spirit and wind up breaking the bruised reed or snuffing out the smoldering wick... I stand here for them. Those who failed the "test of faith"... I stand up for them.

BTW, I do love this old Hymn thank you for posting.

God Bless

@waltherchemnitz

I see the makings of a lot of false conversions in your view. I believe there is a "faith" that looks and acts like true Faith (true faith is placed squarely upon the Solid Rock of Jesus Christ and absolutely nothing else) and many, many, people are fooled by it, so faith MUST be tested whether true or false. True faith that is resting on Christ looks like Christ.

Again, let me say, I am not talking sinless perfect. God in His "sovereignty" will not allow perfection, for if a man could live sinless he would have room to boast.

@Afrikitty

More Precisely one who holds to the five points.

Yes, I do believ in the absolute sovereignty of God, I consider myself supralapsarian, infact my view of sovereignty offends most people.

My view of sanctification, holiness (Perseverance) is found in the sovereignty of God, man has no free will God causes His people to Persevere in holiness.

Therefore when we see a person in open sins with no repentance we can question, is God working in this man or is he reprobate?

[Afrikitty]

@1689Baptist Would you consider yourself to be a Calvinist, or more precisely, one who simply holds to the 5 points of the Doctrines of Grace? The TULIP?

If you do, do you fully understand what these five points (TULIP) teach?

Finally, do you believe in the absolute sovereignty of God?

[waltherchemnitz]

In Lutheran Circles, our assurance is placed squarely upon the Solid Rock of Jesus Christ and absolutely nothing else. We do this not to stand in contradistinction of the likes of you, but because God's word demands it, and to continue to stand against the tyranny of Rome, the guile of the Devil, and the rationality of the world. Nulla Salus Extra Christum, Sola Fide, Favor Dei Proptor Solus Christum, Verbum Domini manet in aeternum.
