The False Gospel of Rome / Douglas Wilson

34:00 "Where was your church before the reformation? Well, where was your face before you washed it."
What a great insight.

Thanks Doug. I love your style and I find your teaching refreshing. Others who seem to be hating are wedded to their own personal doctrines not necessarily God's.

Paul seemed to think that an outright denial of justification by faith alone meant the Judaizers were false brethren.

[thats_xrazy]

I love this presentation of the Gospel

Excerpt from John Calvin's Institutes of the Christian Religion, Book III, Chapter 21, Paragraph 7:
"We say, then, that Scripture clearly proves this much, that God by his eternal and immutable counsel determined once for all those whom it was his PLEASURE one day to admit to salvation, and those whom, on the other hand, it was his PLEASURE to doom to destruction."

Ezekiel, Chapter 18, Verses 23, 32 (ESV):
"Have I any PLEASURE in the death of the wicked, declares the Lord GOD, and not rather that he should turn from his way and live? ... For I have NO PLEASURE in the death of anyone, declares the Lord GOD; so turn, and live."

Very charitable- as a former Catholic I appreciate how he didn’t say all Catholics are headed for hell

29:50 - this Adam and Eve typology is totally new to me. Most Cathodox focus so heavily on Mary being the new eve, but this makes more sense

[johornbuckle]

Doug is more catholic than i am. This was good

[joshuastavos]

Righteousness among the Hebrew apostles, disciples, and followers of Yahshua is following his father’s laws, commandments, and warnings. This remains the definition of righteousness. Yahshua is clear about this in the Gospel. John and Paul made this clear in their writings. This is clear in Revelation too.

Is the strongest argument? I'm genuinely curious. Because I didn't find it convincing.

Imagine if DW was your jury foreman?!!

Concerning Ps. Doug's comment of the birth of the Church occurring at Jesus's death on the cross, that being: 'But one of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear, and at once there came out blood and water. '
John 19:34 consider 'On the last day of the feast, the great day, Jesus stood up and cried out, “If anyone thirsts, let him come to me and drink. Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said, ‘Out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.’” ' John 7:37-38

[gnomeresearch]

Imagine rejecting millenia of tradition, handed down by the Fathers and holy martyrs, of the full canon of Holy Scripture, of the full love of Christ - a living faith as He commands, shared by Catholics, Orthodox, and Copts, for a legalistic counterfeit espoused by a Swiss Lawyer...

[philcortens]

What about work out your salvation with fear and trembling?

[carld]

I'm a proud Catholic, and I LOVE THE LORD AND MY PROTESTANT BROTHERS AND SISTERS!

Seen this video probably a few times last years, helpfull. Good to watch when religous group identity or subculture becomes to big a thing

[clevelandburke]

If you love Jesus you have to keep His commandments.

[alexanderescoto]

Is the teaching that the Church was born from the side of the crucified Christ a common teaching?

[philcortens]

The problem for Protestantism is before their revolution there was no Church other than the Catholic Church (and of course the Orthodox churches that were essentially of the same faith but for the lack of a unifying agent in the Pope). As Newman (another convert from Anglicanism) said, to be deep in history is to cease to be Protestant.

[rockstar]

So God calls someone righteous though he isn't? He doesn't make righteous what he calls righteous?
