The New Evangelical Semi-Pelagian Love of Self Loudly Whines
Published October 30th, 2007 by Ken Silva in Apostasy, Catholicism, New EvangelicalismIt was brought to my attention that in the midst of a post attacking our Lord’s Reformation using the logical fallacy of the false analogy we read the following; which also happens to be a very pervasive view today within the dying American Christian Church:
there was good reason to depart from the direction taken by the systematic theology of the Roman Catholic Church, which was – and is – off the rails in many regards, though it is up to God to judge if it is so far off the rails as to be eternally damnable.
Clearly the writer of that post should stick to things he may actually know something about because this is exactly what the Refomation was; a judgement of God. Through the Reformers–His chosen instruments–the Lord condemned the spiritual whore which is the Church of Rome and called His children out of its apostate Roman Catholicism with its false gospel (see–Gal. 1:6-9). I for one, as a former Roman Catholic myself, will be eternally grateful that the Lord set us free from the sordid spiritual bondage of The Deceivers.
The aforementioned anti-Reformation rant also uses some quotes from Dr. Martin Luther but they missed these:
My dear pope, I will kiss your feet and acknowledge you as supreme bishop if you will worship my Christ and grant that through His death and resurrection, not through keeping your traditions, we have forgiveness of sins and life eternal. If you will yield on this point, I shall not take away your crown and power; if not, I shall constantly cry out that you are the Antichrist, and I shall testify that your whole cult and religion are only a denial of God, but also the height of blasphemy against God and idolatry.
The negotiation about doctrinal agreement displeases me altogether, for this is utterly impossible unless the pope has his papacy abolished. Therefore avoid and flee those who seek the middle of the road. Think of me after I am dead and such middle-of-the-road men arise, for nothing good will come of it. There can be no compromise.
