People who want to be Christians and follow Martin Luther, and Calvin’s teachings instead of letting the Holy Spirit teach him or her; why?
Like Luther discovered something new. Some thing that the people who were taught by Jesus while he was here, and all those who were personally taught by Jesus, did not know?
How could anyone with any reason believe such garbage?
John tells us that a sinner is of Satan. Yet people will listen to the teachings of men like Luther and Calvin, and disregard John. Peter tells us that we are going to be judged by our works. Yet people keep on believing in what Luther and other theologians like him say. Satan must love Luther and Calvin.
(1 Peter 1: 14-19) “Like obedient children, do not act in compliance with the desires of your former ignorance but, as he who called you is holy, be holy yourselves in every aspect of your conduct, for it is written, "Be holy because I (am) holy. Now if you invoke as Father him who judges impartially according to each one's works, conduct yourselves with reverence during the time of your sojourning, realizing that you were ransomed from your futile conduct, handed on by your ancestors, not with perishable things like silver or gold, but with the precious blood of Christ as of a spotless unblemished lamb”.
Again you are teaching from those that were under the Law of Moses.
The RCC estabished a man organized church that was/is built on the Jewish teachings of Jesus and the 12 Apostles. It teaches Law.
Paul was sent by Jesus with the gospel of Grace that was hidden in God and the church for today is built on Paul's gospel, not on the teachings of the Law of Moses that Jesus and the 12 taught.
Oh, my word that means I am slighting Jesus. NOT AT ALL, I am honoring His work on the cross.
There is not one word in the O.T. and the first 4 books of the N.T. that teaches the gospel of grace. Not one word that says we are saved by the shed blood of Jesus on the cross. Not one word that says we are washed, justified and sanctified by the shed blood of Jesus on the cross.
