RADICAL GENESIS EVANGELICALS
*
*
1. An R.G.E. POWERFULLY REJECTS the "GOD IS A MELLOW CALIFORNIAN" concept:
. a. God IS NOT LAID BACK
. b. IS NOT content as long as you're sincere in what you
. believe
. c. IS NOT SLOPPY or LAZY in communicating His will
. d. Is not a God of Errors, Myths, or Mistakes
. (a laid-back, sloppy & lazy god might be content
. with an error filled bible but the great I AM would not)
. e. Would NEVER BE a T.V. EVANGELIST.
. f. Has laid out an EXACTING & SINGULAR way for man to be
. saved. There is only ONE-WAY by which man can be saved:
. Faith in Jesus Christ.
*
2. RGE's hold firmly to SOLA SCRIPTURA (Scripture Only). The
. Bible is WORD-FOR-WORD EXACTLY CORRECT IN ALL IT SAYS.
. God's Word IS COMPLETE in the 66 books of the N.T. & O.T. Canon.
. There is NO OTHER or new revelation beyond the BIBLE ITSELF.
. a. An R.G.E. actually believes Jonah was swallowed by a
. big fish,
. b. believes Adam & Eve were the first humans; they did
. not evolve, they were created by God and ALL HUMANS
. are descended from Adam & Eve
. c. believe that God, in His infinite wisdom, had the
. Israelites totally destroy other nations.
. d. A RADICAL GENESIS EVANGELICAL may not always under-
. stand, but he DOGGEDLY BELIEVES.
*
3. RGE'S believe in a literal Heaven & a literal Hell.
. A minority of people who have lived on Earth will be in
. Heaven, the majority will be in HELL.
. *
4. RGE'S believe God is Self-Existent - no beginning no end.
. God is also Triune; Father, Son (Jesus Christ), & Holy Spirit.
. a. God exists whether or not man does
. b. God IS NOT a Chameleon forever changing to please man
. c. Man's subjective thoughts/feelings about God are only
. correct if they agree with the objective Scriptures.
. D. the CREATED cannot totally understand the CREATOR;
. it is ARROGANT & FOOLISH to think he can.
. *
5. God IS NOT Sentimental or Sloppily Emotional in His love
. for His children. HE IS a God of love but also a God of
. Implacable and AWESOME WRATH. Those people who think HE
. is a Mellow Californian will find they are DEAD-WRONG,
. in Hell.
. a. God never smiles at small sins
. b. Chastises his children with alarming regularity
. c. And does not listen to the prayers of unbelievers except
. when they call out in REPENTANCE for Salvation.
*
6. RGE'S think ALL mankind is incredibly evil and self-deceived.
. An RGE think the "biggies" are still Sins of the Heart more
. than behavioral misdeeds. Our society today suffers from:
. a. Pride (we think we're okay and we can take care of
. ourselves)
. b. Arrogance (especially some theologians who think they
. are smarter and more knowledgeble than the Apostle Paul)
. c. Incredible Materialism (the Christian community has
. bought into rampant materialism Hook, Line & Sinker.
. (Owning a BMW and a 5000 sq. ft. house is obscene.)
. d. Unrestrained Selfishness (I want, I think, I feel,
. I gotta be me, take care of # 1, etc. ad nauseum)
. e. Lack of Courage (how many of us will stand up to the
. taunts and ridicule of family & friends; of the media?)
*
7. An R.G.E. doesn't hate Gays, Adulterers, Liars,
. Politicians, Murderers, the Sexually Warped, liberals,
. Abortioners, T.V. Evangelists, and those who think RADICAL
. BELIEVERS are to be ridiculed and laughed at. Those
. individuals suffer the devastating consequences of their own
. sins here on Earth (and in Hell if they reject Jesus
. Christ). One doesn't have to be an R.G.E. to get to Heaven
. but there is NO BETTER WAY TO LIVE.
. (OBVIOUSLY, R.G.E.'s are not sinless. We also struggle with
. lust and all those other debilitating & destructive sins.)
*
8. R.G.E.'s believe that God, in His infinite wisdom, chose
. women to be subject to men. This IN NO WAY IMPLIES MALE
. SUPERIORITY in God's economy. But female dominated societies
. are NOT God's Plan. Women who seek equality or superiority
. are doomed to be frustrated and miserable (the men also).
*
9. R.G.E.'s believe that in the Culture:
. Divorce and remarriage are wrong except for:
. 1. Chronic sexual infidelity/perversion of a spouse
. 2. Desertion by an unbelieving spouse
. 3. If one was married & divorced before salvation.
. (Certainly, there can be family situations so destructive
. that marital separation might be the best alternative.)
*
10. R.G.E.'s STRONGLY BELIEVE "If anyone DOES NOT PROVIDE FOR
. HIS RELATIVES, and especially for his immediate family, HE
. has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever."
. Bar-hopping, beer guzzling, TV-addict husbands who selfishly
. spend money on their own WANTS are a CANCER in our society.
*
11. R.G.E.'s STRONGLY BELIEVE younger women (wives) should
. love their husbands and children, be self-controlled and
. pure, BUSY AT HOME, be kind, subject to their husbands so
. that no one will malign the Word of God. Titus 2:4,5.
. a. Mother's are ultimately happier and more fulfilled at
. home and
. b. KIDS WEREN'T CREATED FOR DAY CARE CENTERS.
. c. God placed the ultimate, responsibility of educating
. our children in THE PARENT'S HANDS not the State's hands.
*
12. Finally, RADICAL GENESIS EVANGELICALS:
. a. Will Never be in the majority: always be UNPOPULAR
. b. Under constant attack; mostly by people CLAIMING to
. be Christians,
. c. But striving to PERSEVERE; FIGHTING FOR THE FAITH!
LIVE 100%, FLAT-OUT for JESUS CHRIST. There "ain't nuthin'" else worth living
for on this planet.
LIVE RADICALLY!
