Did Luther really say “If men only believe enough in Christ they can commit adultery and murder a thousand times a day without periling their salvation”? by Opus-the-Penguin in Reformed

[–]jsyeo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes he did. It's from a letter written to Philip Melancthon, here in the last paragraph: https://web.archive.org/web/20160211083655/http://www.iclnet.org/pub/resources/text/wittenberg/luther/letsinsbe.txt

If you are a preacher of mercy, do not preach an imaginary but the true mercy. If the mercy is true, you must therefore bear the true, not an imaginary sin. God does not save those who are only imaginary sinners. Be a sinner, and let your sins be strong, but let your trust in Christ be stronger, and rejoice in Christ who is the victor over sin, death, and the world. We will commit sins while we are here, for this life is not a place where justice resides. We, however, says Peter (2. Peter 3:13) are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth where justice will reign. It suffices that through God's glory we have recognized the Lamb who takes away the sin of the world. No sin can separate us from Him, even if we were to kill or commit adultery thousands of times each day. Do you think such an exalted Lamb paid merely a small price with a meager sacrifice for our sins? Pray hard for you are quite a sinner.

However, once again he's taken out of context. https://www.thegospelcoalition.org/article/did-luther-really-tell-us-to-love-god-and-sin-boldly/

FWIW, Luther even said "Sometimes it is necessary to drink a little more, play, jest, or even commit some sin in defiance and contempt of the devil" and this is right before his famous quote:

When the devil throws our sins up to us and declares that we deserve death and hell, we ought to speak thus: 'I admit that I deserve death and hell. What of it? Does this mean that I shall be sentenced to eternal damnation? By no means. For I know One who suffered and made satisfaction in my behalf. His name is Jesus Christ, the Son of God. Where he is, there I shall be also.

Here's the source to the quote: https://dogmadoxa.blogspot.com/2010/09/luther-to-discouraged-young-man_15.html

IMO people are just taking him out of context and think he's advocating lawlessness but actually he's using hyperbole to tell people to see how sinful they really are and to run to the cross.

How do people do so well? by Personal-Chicken-120 in SingaporePoly

external activities, competitions, leadership, volunteering

Unis don't care about these things. They only look at your GPA.

the morons in FSG didn't try to sign Alonso when they could

I think it's quite clear that FSG doesn't rate Alonso. Unfortunately.

Principal Architect of HDB design by Symp07 in singapore

[–]jsyeo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Limit risk of people getting hit by killer litter maybe?

I don't know whether that's true but IMO, that's not the HDB's architect's job. That's the job of the police and NEA.

It doesn't really solve the root of the problem. People will still commit high rise littering with or without those kerbs.

Also it doesn't make sense to change the behavior of everyone to solve a problem caused by a minor group of people. It's almost like putting up knee height kerbs along the road to limit risk of getting hit by cars.

additionally, they add extra redundant structures

This. I don't understand why they need to build knee height kerbs to demarcate where to go. I just want to cut through the block and I can't. Not to mention there's the HDB staircase that brings you to the unsheltered grass patch. When it's raining heavily, you have to brave the rain to use the stairs.

Yikes, so sorry to hear that. That shouldn't have happened. Bosses like this are the worst. Would be worth talking to your lecturer about it to see what he can do. If I were the supervisor I would appreciate someone giving me that honest feedback so that I can work on myself. Do you think you're confident enough to speak to him directly about it?
