Should Christians own a Facebook account because its founder is gay?

…on THIS site!

You can still read my other blog at www.RobbLawson.net.

Dear family and friends,

I have been urged by many to re-open Good Morning, Jesus Christ!. I have thought about it, prayed about it, and now I’m doing it: the blogcasts will return. I will still keep my newest blog For Crying Out Cornflakes! open as well.

Let’s do this thing.

From now on I am going to refer to myself as “Sgt. Robb Lawson, retired 5-point Calvinist in the 44th division.”

I think you will enjoy it. I will not have the mic, either!

Over 100 years ago “born again” was not used in the deep south to describe one’s conversion. It was actually more common to use “I was seized by the power of a great affection” instead.

A good friend of mine linked me to this clip on YouTube. In order to understand my blogcast, you will need to visit the YouTube link.

Joh 3:16  For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
Joh 3:17  For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

1Jn 2:1  My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous:
1Jn 2:2  And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.

I preached my second sermon today at Living Word of Faith in Pensacola, Fl. The sermon was 8 pages long with 2,885 words, but I had to condense it without losing its message. It turned out to be even better.

Unless otherwise noted, all scripture verses are from the New King James Version.

Dear Mr. Friel,

I wish to be as irenic as possible in this letter. I am a former student of The School of Biblical evangelism. I’m not trying to pick a fight; I merely want to point out some things that I’ve noticed on WOTM Radio and now Wretched Radio.

First, I believe you point to man more than Scripture. I’m not saying you do not use Scripture. No sir, indeed you use Scripture. Yet you often appeal to Spurgeon. Now, Spurgeon has had a great influence in my life and I love his material, but the man was fallible. Moreover, while I do believe Spurgeon and other saints before him (Wesley, Augustine, Anselm, etc.) had great things to say about Jesus Christ, these men are fallible. When you start quoting man rather than Scripture to back-up your views, there is a serious problem.

Second, I must say that I am not a wretch. Sir, we have a new self, a new nature which is the righteousness of Christ. The Scriptures state,

2Cor 5:17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!

&&

I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. I do not set aside the grace of God, for if righteousness could be gained through the law, Christ died for nothing!”
(Gal 2:20-21)

We ought not identify with our sin nature, which is wretched. Rather, we should count ourselves as righteous in Christ Jesus. By calling yourself a wretch, you are demeaning our new identity. You’re a saint, I’m a saint, Ray is a saint — I think my point is clear. Wretch theology for the Christian is folk theology. Indeed, before I had my new identity, I was clearly a wretch. To call the nature of Christ, which you and I both have, “wretched” is very wrong. Christ is not a wretch; His nature is not wretched, either.

I appreciate your time for reading this.

In Christ,
Robb Lawson, MRS; ThD

Yes, it’s a joke. I see no reason why a Christian should not learn about the above subjects.

If you look on the right hand side of Good Morning Jesus Christ, you will notice a “Donate” button. I’ve added it since, #1). It would help pay the cost of running Good Morning, Jesus Christ! and 2). Since I’m out of work, it is tough to pay the cost of hosting.

I’m not trying to pressure anyone, be sure of that.

In Christ,

Robbi Lawson

 

 My brush with death...and some advice! [31:55m]: Play Now | Play in Popup | Download

19 For I know that this will turn out for my deliverance through your prayer and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ, 20 according to my earnest expectation and hope that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ will be magnified in my body, whether by life or by death. 21 For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain. 22 But if I live on in the flesh, this will mean fruit from my labor; yet what I shall choose I cannot tell. 23 For I am hard pressed between the two, having a desire to depart and be with Christ, which is far better. 24 Nevertheless to remain in the flesh is more needful for you. 25 And being confident of this, I know that I shall remain and continue with you all for your progress and joy of faith, 26 that your rejoicing for me may be more abundant in Jesus Christ by my coming to you again. Phil 1:19-26 (NKJV)

Whew! It has been a long time since I updated. I have been home, but I’ve been healing. I want to give more details — and I will — but let me say that I almost died. The doctors gave me a 0% chance of living.

More to come. Just letting everyone know this blogcast is still active.

I believe in God the Father Almighty,
maker of heaven and earth;

And in Jesus Christ his only Son our Lord:
who was conceived by the Holy Spirit,
born of the Virgin Mary,
suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, dead, and buried;
the third day he rose from the dead;
he ascended into heaven,
and sitteth at the right hand of God the Father Almighty;
from thence he shall come to judge the quick and the dead.

I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the holy catholic church,
the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,

the resurrection of the body,
and the life everlasting. Amen.

“Be a sinner, and sin boldly (esto peccator et pecca fortiter) but even more boldly believe and rejoice in Christ, the conqueror of sin, death and the world. During this life we must sin. It suffices that, by the mercy of God, we know the Lamb who takes away the sins of the world. Sin will not separate us from Him, even if we were to commit a thousand murders and a thousand adulteries a day.” — Martin Luther.

Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow, we shall go to such and such a city, and spend a year there and engage in business and make a profit.” Yet you do not know what your life will be like tomorrow. You are just a vapor that appears for a little while and then vanishes away.

(James 4:13-14 NAS77)

 

 Regarding "A Jesus Manifesto" - Audio Sermon 0001 [32:38m]: Play Now | Play in Popup | Download

Our text today is Matthew 2, verses 1 and 2.

Now after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, magi from the east arrived in Jerusalem, saying, “Where is He who has been born King of the Jews? For we saw His star in the east, and have come to worship Him.” (Matthew 2:1-2 NAS77)

You can find “A Jesus Manifesto” by clicking here.

I agree with and endorse A Jesus Manifesto. I will comment on this tonight via blogcast.
