Austin Duncan has been fired from GCC last week. No real reason was given. I found that his most blasphemous and disqualifying sermon was on Ps. 22. In recent days GCC edited it with Duncan making additional notes. I have included those below.
At the time I marked what he said and when he said it:
Time mark 41:40 "His distress, pain,
trouble, misery, wretchedness, misfortune, sorrow,
adversity, torment, and tribulation, is not ultimate."
Time Mark 43:58 - he says "Jesus was evil incarnate".
Jesus is abandoned by God: 15:40 - 19:00
"Jesus, who had God as His God, was forsaken by God. This is the anguish, the terror, and the despair of the cross." 19:28
God could not look upon sin especially in His
own Son 17:38
Jesus bore our sins in His body on the
cross 18:25
No Christian should ever use the terms
"wretchedness" and "misfortune" in describing Christ Jesus
on the cross. Neither of those words are biblical and promote sin and
happenstance, which clearly is impossible with the God of Scripture. And
to accuse Christ as having sin "in" Him, and that He was "evil
incarnate" is absolute blasphemy. He was without sin, a perfect and
pleasing sacrifice on the cross in the place of elect sinners. Is. 53 as well
as the New Testament say that the Father was well pleased with Him and that He
is without sin.
Psa 22:24 For He has not despised nor abhorred the
affliction of the afflicted; Neither has He hidden His face from him; But when
he cried to Him for help, He heard.
Isa 53:10 But the LORD was pleased To crush Him,
putting Him to grief; If He would render Himself as a guilt offering, He will
see His offspring, He will prolong His days, And the good pleasure of the LORD
will prosper in His hand.
Quote:
A correction has been made to this sermon at 43:58, removing a phrase. The following is a note from Pastor Austin Duncan regarding the correction:
"'Imputation' is the word I should have said, not 'incarnation.’ This truth is found throughout all of Scripture. 2 Cor. 5:21, 1 Peter 3:18, Gal. 4:13, and Isaiah 53 clearly teach that Jesus having no sin Himself, was treated as if He sinned. That's imputation. Jesus was not ontologically evil and He committed no sin whatsoever. Christ carried our sins and bore the wrath of God on behalf of all who believe. Jesus is perfectly holy in His righteous life and in His atoning death. That's the imputation of our sin on the eternally perfect, sinless Son of God."
End quote.
However, I don't think they edited the other blasphemous remarks:
Besides that, evil can't be imputed INTO Christ. He was very clear on what he stated at the the time. Jesus is eternally sinless and our sin, while imputed or charged to His account was not put INTO HIM. That's still abject heresy. That he held to this is clearly shown when he ALSO said sin was "in Him" and our sins He "bore IN His body". That's exactly what lead to his summariazing such blasphemy as "evil incarnate" because He wrongly holds to sin having been PUT INTO CHRIST, rather than symbolically placed UPON Him as was the case in during the annual atonement using animals. The animals never had sin placed IN them.
