Quote “..the Gospel and nothing else.” http://www.jeremiahgriffin.com/index.php/2009/12/19/quote-the-gospel-and-nothing-else/ http://www.jeremiahgriffin.com/index.php/2009/12/19/quote-the-gospel-and-nothing-else/#comments Sat, 19 Dec 2009 23:13:06 +0000 Jeremiah Griffin http://www.jeremiahgriffin.com/index.php/?p=161 I have my own private opinion that there is no such thing as preaching Christ and Him crucified, unless we preach what nowadays is called Calvinism. It is a nickname to call it Calvinism; Calvinism is the gospel, and nothing else. I do not believe we can preach the gospel, if we do not preach justification by faith, without works; nor unless we preach the sovereignty of God in His dispensation of grace; nor unless we exalt the electing, unchangeable, eternal, immutable, conquering love of Jehovah; nor do I think we can preach the gospel, unless we base it upon the special and particular redemption of His elect and chosen people which Christ wrought out upon the cross; nor can I comprehend a gospel which lets saints fall away after they are called, and suffers the children of God to be burned in the fires of damnation after having once believed in Jesus. Such a gospel I abhor.  –—C. H. Spurgeon

I cannot shape the truth; I know of no such thing as paring off the rough edges of a doctrine. John Knox’s gospel is my gospel. That which thundered through Scotland must thunder through England again.”—C. H. Spurgeon

The only non Calvinists I know are those who have not studied the Bible enough to have realized the error of THEIR ways… ;)
