What are the Characteristics of a NT Christian?
#94
RE: What are the Characteristics of a NT Christian?
There are some sites on the internet that charge Jack Chick with heresy. For instance:

Jack Chick plainly teaches in every Chick Track that faith in Jesus Christ is insufficient to save unless you are willing to cease from your sins. That is works salvation!!! Mr. Chick puts the cart before the horse, demanding a willingness to change as a qualifying prerequisite to faith in Christ. That is a back door approach to Lordship Salvation. I am not loyal to men, but to the Word of God. Anyone who messes with the Gospel needs to be exposed. Jack Chick is hindering sinners from coming to Christ!


But that raises to me the question if one has sincere faith in Jesus why would that individual be unwilling to stop sinning?? "Works salvation" is an inescapable side effect of sincerely held belief in the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

To posit a real world example: simultaneous, concurrent and totally synchronized ejaculation into a child's butt and belief in Jesus Christ.
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
