Shai Linne, Stephen the Levite - Atonement Q&A lyrics

Yo, what's good Stephen the Levite!
Chillin, fam, how you doin?
Oh, man, I'm good, yo
It's a pleasure to have you here on my album
The Atonement, man
Oh, it's my pleasure to be here, man
And, I thought it'd be dope
To kinda chop it up
About certain terms that we throw out a lot
But never really define, so
Why don't I throw out some terms
And you can give us the definition?
Alright, let's do it
Alright, let's start it off with:

Who is God? God is the universe's Creator
And Sustainer plus the only Savior
There is no one greater
He triune, holy, omnipotent, omniscient
Absolute
Loving, sovereign and righteous are a


Few of His attributes
How do we know this? Well
We know this from the Bible
Where God has revealed Himself- anything
Else is just an idol
What's the Bible about? Man's
Complete ruin in sin
And what God has done in Christ
To bring us to Him again
What is sin? Sin is the breaking of God's law
Plus our condition
Which means from birth we all got flaws
What's the result? The result is
By nature we're God's enemies
And must pay the penalty unless
God provides the remedy
What the remedy? The remedy is
The cross of Christ
Where He suffered all the strikes
For the lawless type
I've been rescued by the Lamb
I'm convinced that He's risen
And blessed is the man
Whose sins are forgiven!

Just fall back, and with the eyes of faith
Behold the beauty of surprising grace
Because the Lamb has died
Third day He had to rise he's magnified
God's wrath is satisfied
So fall back- there's an atonement now
The cross of Christ is holy ground
Because the Lamb has died
Third day He had to rise he's magnified
God's wrath is satisfied

Regeneration: the Holy Spirit's true
Work in His love to the elect
Who receive new birth from above
Expiation- expiation means God's
Removed my filthiness
The old testament type was the
Goat into the wilderness
Redemption- we've been freed from
Slavery to sin
And His very own blood is the price He paid
My friend
Propitiation- Propitiation means since the
Lamb has died his work is finished- God's
Wrath is satisfied
Adoption- adoption means God is now my Father
I got the hottest Poppa and
By the Spirit holler Abba
Reconciliation means there's no more enmity
God is now a friend to me
We're no longer enemies
Justification- God declares us righteous
Sanctification- we're being made
Into His likeness
Glorification- that's what happens
At the finish
When God conforms believers perfectly
To Christ's image!

Just fall back, and with the eyes of faith
Behold the beauty of surprising grace
Because the Lamb has died
Third day He had to rise
He's magnified- God's wrath is satisfied

God's grace is magnificent
He slayed His innocent
Son- through faith and repentance
We get the benefit's
What is faith? Faith is a gift
From God- when we receive this
We trust and treasure the person
And finished work of Jesus
Repentance? Repentance is turning
From your sin and trusting Christ as the
Spirit cleanses you within
What is grace? Oh, grace is unmerited favor
Our inheritance major 'cause we
Cherish the Savior
Right, and if I may quote again
We were doomed with Satan
But believers get Jesus'
Righteousness through imputation
Imputation? God takes Jesus'
Righteousness amount
Through faith He credit's it
Into the Christian's account
Anything else? Well
I guess this overview must suffice
But none of this is possible
Apart from union with Christ and finally
Once you know the ways of the Lord than the
Only thing that you can say
Is Soli Deo Gloria!

Just fall back, and with the eyes of faith
Behold the beauty of surprising grace
Because the Lamb has died
Third day He had to rise
He's magnified- God's wrath is satisfied
