    The false gospel of grace

    I do not normally teach this; but it may even be a requirement for salvation for all you know. I wouldn't put it past the devil to teach God's flock that doctrine that is essential to salvation is heresy.

    The false gospel of grace

    It is no heresy. It is biblical doctrine. I can quote to you a plethora of verses that teach it.

    Convince me of Annihilationism

    As soon as they become unconscious of their pain, the smoke that rises is no longer of torment. It is the soul that will be burning for all of eternity; which thing is immortal and will never lose consciousness. Consider it as a warning and a deep motivation to be sure that you are correct on...

    I've seen people who have it in their walks.

    The false gospel of grace

    Peter's so-called hypocrisy had to do with the fact that Peter was an apostle to the circumcision and Paul to the uncircumcision. From Paul's perspective, as the apostle to the Gentiles, Peter was compromising the gospel. But from Peter's perspective, he may have only been obeying a principle...

    Convince me of Annihilationism

    Except that it is the smoke of their torment that rises for ever and ever.

    The false gospel of grace

    In the document in question, it shows how that sanctification comes as the result of free justification.

    Convince me of Annihilationism

    Eze 13:21, Your kerchiefs also will I tear, and deliver my people out of your hand, and they shall be no more in your hand to be hunted; and ye shall know that I am the LORD. Eze 13:22, Because with lies ye have made the heart of the righteous sad, whom I have not made sad; and strengthened the...

    The false gospel of grace

    Are you willing to explore further? Because if my ideas are off, then I want to know about it; and if they are not, then I am willing to show you biblically how they are sound. The truth is not something that will be easily dismantled; it will stand the test when scrutinized. So if you...

    The false gospel of grace

    I was simply making a statement of fact. I want to make it clear to you that my own entrance into salvation was very much a situation where I called out to the Lord and said, "God be merciful to me a sinner." This reality does not change what the Bible says about the work that He does in our...

    The false gospel of grace

    To me he has always been a big name that many people look up to. I have to admit to being blindsighted by the fact that he was one of the preachers preaching falsely concerning this doctrine. I had never seen him before and did not know what he looked like. But apparently the Holy Spirit (and...

    The false gospel of grace

    Context of the epistle: 1Jo 3:3, And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure. 1Jo 3:4, Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law. 1Jo 3:5, And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him...

    The false gospel of grace

    The following might even be charged with Antinomianism...though it brings needed balance to the subject. Wet Paint Principle (Freedom)

    The false gospel of grace

    Unfortunately, the message of holiness is often rejected along with those who teach it; and people heap up to themselves teachers with big names who have the ability to crush the ones who come to you with Bible truth. I would point out, though I think it will fall on deaf ears (because of the...

    The false gospel of grace

    1 John 1:8? I would say that you have misinterpreted that verse. It is saying that we all have sin dwelling in our mortal flesh; not that we can never come to a place of real repentance in our lives, wherein we would be set free from the power of sin, as we find is clearly spoken of in 1 John...

    What to do when you are beyond repentance?

    It sounds like the Lord is just having you in a state where He is showing you more clearly your sin. He loves you. Have you come to the place where in your heart you have adopted the saying that is written in 1 Timothy 1:15? He may simply be showing you the reality of Jeremiah 17:9. When you...

    The false gospel of grace

    There is the issue of what we grow up into: Eph 4:12, For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: Eph 4:13, Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the...

    The false gospel of grace

    Perhaps not generally. But if he is teaching that entire sanctification is a myth, that amounts to grace as a license for sin impaho. Sorry if I'm stepping on your toes by messing with your human idols.

    The false gospel of grace

    You are making excuses. Man up and repent of the sin that you are defending in your own mind.

    The false gospel of grace

    I won't say that that has never happened or even that it hasn't happened recently. However, there is a certain victory that I am experiencing in this area. Pro 4:18, But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day. And the perfect day might...
