Convictional Reception
1 & 2 Thessalonians (Chapter 8: Not of Men but of God (1 Thessalonians 2:13–17))
: “Will you recant?”
Luther’s bold answer consisted of these famous words: “Unless I am convinced by the testimony of the Scriptures or by clear reason, for I do not trust in the pope or the councils alone, since it is well known that they often err and contradict each other, I am bound to the Scriptures I have quoted and my conscience is captive to the Word of God.…
I cannot do otherwise.
Here I stand.
May God help me.
Amen.”
“I am bound to the Scriptures I have quoted and my conscience is captive to the Word of God…I cannot do otherwise.
Here I stand.
May God help me.
Amen.”
The Word comes from God
This convictional reception by the Thessalonians and by us is not a mere “burning in the bosom” but an actual transformed new creation.
Not only do we have the validation of history, science, etc. but we have actual new birth.
v.14
Judean churches were the first to be planted and therefore were surely models of faithful convictional life under persecution.
v.15
v.16
The Jews were guilty of what then?
And what does the Holy Spirit do?
