Of Sin, Because They Believe Not
At the Revival Focus blog an excellent
and concise refutation of the Lordship Salvation interpretation of the
gospel has been published. Lordship Salvation corrupts the
simplicity that is in Christ (2 Cor.
11:3) and frustrates grace (Gal.
2:21). Brother James Hollandworth exposes and answers one of the most egregious errors of Lordship Salvation.
And when he (Holy
Spirit) is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of
judgment: Of sin, because they believe not on me; John 16:8-9

The way in which the Holy Spirit convicts unbelievers of sin is by shining a light on their unbelief. Lost men do not believe on Jesus Christ, in the sense that they do not depend on him for salvation. That is their great sin.... Lost man may not realize the full extent of his sin, but the Holy Spirit convinces him that he is guilty of rejecting Jesus as Savior when a believer declares the gospel to him.... Going forward, that new believer is then equipped to repent of individual sins, as the Holy Spirit reveals them through the Word, working toward the goal of making Christ Lord of his life.
