MAKE YOURSELVES A NEW HEART AND NEW SPIRIT (Ez 18:31) Arminian - TopicsExpress



          

MAKE YOURSELVES A NEW HEART AND NEW SPIRIT (Ez 18:31) Arminian Premise: A just God would not command anything we cant obey My response: Ok, my humble challenge to EVERY Arminian on planet earth. OBEY Ez 18:31! :) Dont cite bits and pieces of Ez 18 which is an almost verbatim parallel to Ez 33 (often cited by Arminians as a proof passage against sovereign-grace). Obey the whole thing! Keep ALL of Gods precepts (Ez 18:21) - which means keep the WHOLE LAW! (Gal 3:10-12). DO THIS, and you will live, God said. For WHY will you die? Dont downplay it, JUST DO IT! ;) Make YOURSELVES a new heart AND a new spirit - JUST LIKE GOD COMMANDED! Prove your premise here! Obey this! When you DO enough righteousness to live by YOUR OWN WORKS - for that is precisely what Ez18, 31 promise, then come let God and everyone else know how YOU did it where all others failed! ;) Come back and tell us all how it was that YOU made yourselves the very thing which God a few chapters later declared HE would sovereignly do! (Ez 36:21-31). And only HE can do! ...when you for all your best efforts at self-reform FAIL, as ALL do (Rom 3:10-12); when you realize that the Apostles MEANT it when they said that through FAITH in Jesus we can be justified from all the things we COULD NOT BE JUSTIFIED FROM under the law (Acts 13:39); when you realize Isaiah MEANT it when he said We are ALL as an unclean thing...and all OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS is as filthy rags (Isa 64:6) - it is not merely our sins which are considered as filthy rags, but our righteousness which is; When you like Paul cry out O wretched man that I am! WHO shall deliver me from this body of death?, and come back to the grace of God ALONE - to which NOTHING can be or ought to be added (Rom 3:20, 26-28; 4:1-5; Gal 1:5-6; 2:5, 10, 21; 3:15), then we who by grace alone affirm the truth of grace alone - did you catch that?, we will still be here, from whence, we by grace, will never depart :) May God give light.
