What is the biblical way of dealing with a gospel message that isn't the one given to us by Paul? If you can add some insight to clarify how I should feel about this message of Lordship Salvation then please share it with me. The reason I feel so strongly about it, and Luke can attest to this, is because I used to believe in LS. I can attest to the countless nights I doubted my salvation because of the sin still in my life. So, if a born again, and SAVED Christian can be hurt by this LS gospel, then how much more potential is there for harm in it being recieved by those new to Christ?
Yes, I agree with you stephanos. I find Chick tracts very powerful and effective. I wish we have a lot of them. But I'm a little bothered by its tendency towards Lordship Salvation.
