Christian Clarity Review

“Truth in Love”.

What a clear example of anti-Christ’s false gospel that is not true grace but only a serruptitious emotional wrestling maneuver of the ‘free’ will lie to deceive the victim whose time has been monopolized by the lie in which they grew up …again. What a clear example of every ‘common sense’ parsing out of non-creating speech/anti-Christ by those truly deceived God’s grace can be thwarted at all, those deceived only one speech exists in total reality and that the unconditionally elect must give God permission to save them by first giving the messenger permission to speak words exactly in line with a supposed etiquette that fell from heaven that if transgressed is supposed proof of the messenger’s message being not-Jesus and not-the-gospel. What a plain example of those deceived there is no literal new birth in Jesus Christ, but only a change of emotional ’skill’ set in the same creature as ’salvation’ into ‘civilization’:

Riddleblog - The Latest Post - Some Dos and Don’ts of Evangelism

1. Be clear about what you believe and why you believe it. Know the Scriptures and know the confessions and catechisms. The more you know about your faith, the easier it is to talk with non-Christians.

2. The essence of evangelism is communicating the correct information about sin and grace, simply and clearly. Talk about the law and the gospel, not about infralapsarianism and divine simplicity. That comes later!

3. Avoid the use of Christian jargon. Speak about real sin, real guilt, real shed blood!

4. Use tact and be charitable! Don’t talk about reprobation with someone who has just lost an unbelieving family member. Be kind and courteous! Many non-Christians act and speak out of ignorance, not malice.

5. Be sensitive to someone’s past—if they’ve had a bad experience in church, struggle with a particular sin etc., be understanding and compassionate! Non-Christians hate self-righteousness, and they have a right to do so. Do not soft-peddle the law and the guilt of sin, but make sure they understand that you are a justified sinner, not a self-righteous “know it all,” who is here to correct them!

6. Stick with the subject—don’t get side-tracked. When the conversation wanders, pull it back to center stage—the law and the gospel.

7. Evangelism is not about winning an argument, but leading people to Christ. Discussions may get heated and intense at times—that’s okay. But the purpose of evangelism is not to show why you are right and they are wrong. It is to communicate the truth of the gospel. The message is to be the offence. Not you!

…

10. Stick with what all Christians hold in common wherever possible. Leave the internecine fighting among Christians aside when talking to non-Christians. A non-Christian will not care much about why the Lutheran view of the Lord’s Supper is in error, or why Baptists are wrong about infant baptism. That will come during catechesis.

11. Wherever possible, speak about Christianity as factually true— “Jesus did this,” “Jesus said this,” “people heard and saw him,” etc. Keep away from the subjective line of approach— “it works for me.”

…

17. Don’t force things. If people balk, ridicule and otherwise are not interested, back off. Find another time and place. If after repeated attempts to communicate the gospel, and someone still shows an unwillingness to hear what you have to say, “shake the dust off your feet and move on to a new town!”

…

20. You don’t have to become a practical Arminian to be a faithful evangelist! A Reformed approach to evangelism simply means telling people the truth in love.

There’s more, but really the main point is merely reiterated many times as if the number of points were actually different than one: “BE POLITE according to what the non-regenerate already know of speech and reality with a twist here and there to ’shake them up’ so they will say positive things in non-creating speech about Jesus and Christ but forget about actually and non-metaphorically birthing them in Jesus Christ. After all, only God can do that and you are not God.” (That God is in you doing His will to include birthing new creatures in Jesus Christ completely passes Kim and all free willers by..)

Anti-Christ also forgot to include his lie about “under no circumstances appear to be “a Christian attacking other Christians”. To anti-Christ, that’s bad form and might lead the listener to discredit what you say and therefore reject God because of some fault in yourself.”

Anti-Christ has never known that no child of God will come up missing in heaven, no matter what happens –no matter how they feel, if they are having a bad day, no matter how they think of themselves as emotional ‘genuises’ who supposedly out-fox their nieghbor in that “sensative” situation to ‘convert’ them, or to keep from being converted, etc. No lie will thwart the Truth for any who have been chosen before the world’s foundation to be the children of God in Jesus Christ as new creature, no matter how anti-Christ makes it appear any slight wind of ..anything will disrupt the ‘gospel experience’ for the non-regenerate.

God plainly Says as spirit and life:

Romans 8:37-39 But in all these things we more than conquer through him that has loved us. For I am persuaded that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Yet anti-Christ has said in reply through Kim (and countless other free willers now calling themselves “reformed”) : “..some things CAN separate us from the love of God: going beyond our neighbors own limits of any kind, not worshipping the ‘free’ will and ‘its’ pecularities; emotional mis-steps, impoliteness, speaking to our neighbor in the Speech/Word they have never heard nor understand as God Speaks through us, etc.

——————————————

It isn’t about being ‘liked’ or ‘loved’ by those yet to be born again as new creatures in Jesus Christ. It is NOT about “building fellowship”. It is only and exclusively Jesus Christ taking up residence in those the Father chose for Himself through us as a blessing on themselves and many others and as a praise and glory of God as total Trinity. Trying to “build future fellowship” with those babes in Jesus Christ is treason against Jesus Christ. We only have true fellowship IN Jesus Christ and free from each other IN Him. There is no fellowship at all “about” Jesus Christ or ‘about’ the ‘gospel experience’ or ‘about’ the ‘worship experience’.

God never said, “I’m leaving and I’ll be back later. Talk amongst yourselves about me.”

Plainly He Says:

Hebrews 13:5 Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.
