Spirit in the Sky? Okay song. Lousy Theology.
"Never been a sinner. I've never sinned. I've got a friend in Jesus"
uh-huh....
Is a Christian what a Christian thinks he is, or is he what God says he is? The lyric understandably agitates, but there is a way to understand it when viewed from the perspective of objective justification. In this life we will always agonize over theology. This song has a way of amplifying the agony. No substitute for a solid, ancient hymn or psalm.
