2KR

FLAME

You know I ain't even really
Know there was a difference i mean a lot
Of people in the Calvinistic world
They they salute the homie Luther
But you never really get exposed to
Especially what he taught on justification
Who he really was
The teachings he really brought to the table
(For real)
The more I do that I'm really being liberated
(Teach)

Let me show the difference
Of these two traditions (Let's get it)
It can be complicated but
Let's go to distance (With it)
The Lutheran approach versus John Calvin's
You know a lot about the
Latter from my nine albums (Ha)
Philip Melanchthon, Luther's young boy
Book of Concord, AP article four
Explains fully what it means to be justified
And where to go to find
Proof that you trusted God
But first, there're three uses of the law
The first one really serves as
A curb for us all
The fear of punishment keeps us
From going too far
That's for Christians and non-Christians
Alike to be sure (Give 'em more)
The second use really serves as a mirror
And always accuses keeping
Consciences in terror
It's where the (Where the what?)
Law comes crushing and you feel
Like you were nothing
Now you live in fear of judgement hold up

Two types of righteousness call it 2KR (2KR)
One is horizontal
One is vertical (Yes they are)
One before each other, one before the Lord
One is active, one is passive
Keep em apart, say less

The third use, exclusive to the Christians
Empowered by the Spirit shows us
How we should live in (Yuh)
A sinful world with sin
Remnants while being forgiven (Yuh)
The old Adam got drown down in baptism
(So remember it)
If you been redeemed better say so
(I been redeemed)
We can't become clean, Coram Deo
What that mean?
That's Latin for "before God"
We spiritually poor and on the pay role
(Whatchu pay?)
The wages of sin is death cased closed
(How you get saved?)
So vertically if Jesus doesn't save souls
Then the doors of heaven
Forever will stay closed
Even our righteousness to God is
Like a waste load
Oh, but praise God for His Son though
(All to him we owe)
Another Latin phrase, called Coram Mundo
What that mean?
"How we live before each other"
We should be serving, loving, healing
And building one another up (Go)

Two types of righteousness call it 2KR (2KR)
One is horizontal
One is vertical (Yes they are)
One before each other, one before the Lord
One is active, one is passive
Keep em apart, say less

In the Calvinistic tradition emphasis
On holy living
Starts to reach out it's position (Facts)
In such a way that
It proves our justification
Progressive nature of sanctification
Becomes the basis (I know I'm right)
Upon which one can find his assurance
So more self-examination
Pure motives and endurance into Coram Deo
Misusing the third use of the law
If I can say so (You can say so)
Yeah the third use serves as a guide
But our sanctified lives will
Not get us justified
Listen, Paul quoted Genesis in Romans 4
(Romans 4)
Said that Abraham was justified by his faith
(True)
But the chapter he quoted, Genesis 15 (Okay)
In chapter 12 in Genesis was
When he got saved (Facts)
He called him ungodly on that same page
(Facts) but he'd been living sanctified and
Left his pagan ways (Facts)
The point is if you're fresh
In or been saved (Connect)
He counted him as righteous
Because of his faith (Yeah)
That's why Luther emphasized the
Completed work of justification
Over the partial incompleted work
(Sanctification)
So then how should we then live below?
Focus on serving our neighbor
That is Coram Mundo (We get active)
And when the second use is crushing your soul
Let it drive you to the gospel
'cause Christ carried that load say less

Two types of righteousness call it 2KR (2KR)
One is horizontal
One is vertical (Yes they are)
One before each other, one before the Lord
One is active, one is passive
Keep em apart, say less

2KR, two kinds of righteousness (Yeah)
