The Carnal Christian, by Dr. R. C. Sproul (1939-2017)
Here are some short excerpts from this great message:
"If it's really true that self is completely dominating your life, and Christ is in no sense exercising Lordship in your life, and if you are utterly carnal, and not spiritual at all, you are not a Christian."
"The theme song of the antinomians is,
'Freed from the law,
O blessed condition!
I can sin all I want
And still have remission!'"
"How did they respond to that? They did it with this little formula that's easy to remember:
'Justification is by faith alone - comma - but not by a faith that is alone'"

The following 2 quotes are from R. C. Sproul's (1939-2017) book Faith Alone: The Evangelical Doctrine of Justification
"Does saving faith require a trust in the righteousness of Christ alone as the grounds of our justification? Or may a person have a different view of the gospel and still be a Christian?"
"The Reformation was waged, not over the issue of justification by faith, but over the issue of justification by faith alone. It was the Sola of Sola Fide that was the central point of dispute."
