Brennsuppe (flour Soup)

There should be some non-negotiables on which you must never compromise. In particular, make certain that the church is committed to: 1. The Bible as the fully inspired, inerrant, infallible and authoritative Word of God. 2. That God is exalted as holy, sovereign and all-wise. 3. That salvation is by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone. 4. That there is solid, biblical, expository preaching and teaching. 5. That the church recognizes its duty to evangelize its own community and those around the world through missionary efforts. 6. That it teaches and insists upon holiness among its membership. 7. That it is characterized by a love toward both the saved and the lost. 8. That it both feeds and protects the flock. 9. That it encourages genuine fellowship among its members. 10. That it is a church that prays, recognizing its absolute dependence upon the grace of God. 11. That it is a vibrant, joyful Christian fellowship.

True repentance has a distinct and constant reference to the Lord, Jesus Christ. If you repent of sin without looking to Christ, away with your repentance! If you are so lamenting your sin as to forget the Savior, you have need to begin all this work over again. Whenever we repent of sin we must have one eye upon sin and another upon the Cross. Or, better still, let us have both eyes upon Christ, seeing our sin punished in Him and by no means let us look at sin except as we look at Jesus. A man may hate sin just as a murderer hates the gallows – but this does not prove repentance. If I hate sin because of the punishment, I have not repented of sin – I merely regret that God is just. But if I can see sin as an offense against Jesus Christ and loathe myself because I have wounded Him, then I have a true brokenness of heart. If I see the Savior and believe that those thorns upon His head were plaited by my sinful words; If I believe that those wounds in His heart were pierced by my heart sins; If I believe that those wounds in His feet were made by my wandering steps and that the wounds in His hands were made by my sinful deeds – then I repent of sin after a right fashion. Only under the Cross can you repent. Repentance elsewhere is remorse which clings to the sin and only dreads the punishment. Let us then seek, under God, to have a hatred of sin caused by a sight of Christ’s love.
