Reformed Charismatics

Was on FB and some mutual friend of some of my friends whom is a pastor of a church and the man is loaded with tattoos', dresses very baggy, loves rap music, and hangs out with people loaded with Tatoo's showed up on my wall and he apparently is one of these Reformed Charismatics like Mark Driscoll. While I agree with their soteriology these people are bad news as they have the appearance of evil. While men like Erwin Lutzer and Charles Stanley may not be Reformed in theology, they sure come across more decent in appearance. I also can't stand the garbage rap music that some of these hokey's love to play and how that garbage dishonors God.

Whats your view of these Reformed Charismatics? I know that Mac has a low opinion of them, as Mac is a Fundamentalist Calvinist.

A mental concept expressed verbally has no more validity than the impact it has on your lifestyle.

What some on this forum regard as "preaching Christ" is merely verbalizing the right Biblical phrases irregardless of right Biblical definition. Like the ETC (Evangelicals Together with Catholic" agreement). They agreed on similar language but opposing meanings.

Moreover, there is a clear distinction, or should be between "spiritual" songs (Eph. 5:19) and "fleshly" music. Some believe you can take music that obviously excites and moves the flesh into sensual expressed bodily gyrations but dress it up with the right lyrics and that makes it a "spiritual" song. Thus they manifest a visible orgy by their body movements and call it worship. Others believe you can take traditional heart moving melodies set to unbiblical lyrics and that is "spiritual" songs. Neither is correct.

"irregardless" is not a word.

Although I don't agree with the charismatic movement, "reformed" "dispensational" or any other variety, I have to say to this comment: "Not to the people to whom they minister."

How well do you think you relate to leather-bound bikers? My guess? Though it could be wrong, I'd say about as well as I do: Not well.

They do. Leave 'em alone. As long as they preach Christ and Him crucified and win people to Him, leave 'em alone.

Not at all. But you know what you say may be correct. These type can usually be more laid back, not as rule centered, an environment where one does not come to church all dressed up, a place where the leaders are more lenient on Bible translations and music, and the like.
