Confirmation vows and practices. A Nagel sermon on Luke 9:51-58 after which Cwirla suffers brain lock @ 27:50 but makes a remarkable recovery to discuss the “for you” rhetoric of preaching. Third “use” of the Law as it applies to the “recalcitrant ass” of the old Adam with reference to legalism, antinomianism, and other bogus ideas. And what is a “fundagelical” anyway?
