The words Reformed and Charismatic are like fried onions and ice cream, they just don't go.

And yet, many people who hold to Charismatic view points are still considered "Reformed".

John Knox, D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones among them.

According to The Charismatic Movement: A Biblical Critique, the Charismatic doctrine of the second blessing (i.e. Spirit-baptism) is a deviation from Protestant orthodoxy. It was not taught by the Spirit-filled Protestant Reformers (e.g., Luther, Zwingli, Bucer, Calvin, Knox, etc.). It was not taught by any of the great theologians of sixteenth, seventeenth or eighteenth centuries (e.g., Gillespie, Rutherford, Owen, Edwards, Turrentin, Hodge, Dabney, Warfield). And it has already been shown to you that MLJ did not speak in tongues, et. al.

Instead of examples which you can't prove, prove it from the Scriptures. First, prove that "all" the gifts are "still" in existence. Second, show their compatibility with true Reformed doctrine. We are waiting!


Reformed and Always Reforming,
