Does Free Grace Encourage or Give License to Sin?

[@jolookstothestars6358]

Greenwood Arkansas, I listen probably every day because you guy are the only ones who don't teach any form of Lordship salvation. Thank you!! And keep grace in focus. 😇

Grace has provided us all things that pertain to Life and Godliness, having been made partakers of the Divine Nature.

Why did God make us a part of Adam's fall?

[@GiftofGrace88]

Romans 9 19 Thou wilt say then unto me, Why doth he yet find fault? For who hath resisted his will? 20 Nay but, O man, who art thou that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why hast thou made me thus? 21 Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour? 22 What if God, willing to shew his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath fitted to destruction: 23 And that he might make known the riches of his glory on the vessels of mercy, which he had afore prepared unto glory,

Hunter Hestekin , why are you asking that ?

[@DannyLoyd]

GES believes that you can believe for three-six seconds, be saved and then you can have an evil unbelieving heart, fall away from the living God, and heaven will be your home. You would have grace... But if you believe you have to walk in the light, walk by the Spirit, obey his commands, you are a work salvationist and will be lost, there is no grace for you.

Still Working for a Free and Never Deserving Gift ? Try making sense to a little child . Then the Free of all behavioral performance (works) criteria will accord with John 3:16 & Ephesians 2:8-9 : the insurmountable Barrier to all forms of Self Righteous Idolatry .

[@2Chronicles714_]

​​​@@timgrady4630 Jesus said to Repent and Believe. Free grace says simply believe. Jesus said to count the cost. Free grace says do nothing. Jesus said to deny yourself and take up your cross and follow me. Free grace calls that conflating discipleship with Salvation. Jesus never said IF you are a follower it's optional IF you want to be a disciple. The author of Hebrews says to strive for Holiness. Free grace says that's trusting in yourself. John says IF we sin we must confess and ask for forgiveness. Free grace says past present and future sins are already forgiven with no need to confess.

Sure it does, Once Saved Always Saved. Tell us GES, once we have been saved, can we WALK IN DARKNESS, 1 John 1:6, and never repent, and still be saved? GES says, YES YOU CAN!! Can we LIVE BY THE FLESH AFTER WE HAVE BEEN SAVED, commit adultery, fornication and even commit murder, never ever repent and do so 24/7/365 and still be saved? GES says, yes you can. Can you DISOBEY his commands? have an evil unbelieving heart and fall away from the living God, Heb 3:12 and can you depart from the faith and give heed to doctrine of demons, 1 Timothy 4:1, and still be saved? GES says, yes you can. But if you believe you must walk in the light, live by the Spirit, obey his commands, you are a works salvationist and you are lost....... So, does it give you a license to sin.......YEP!! according to GES

The Bible says what it says. If someone wants to abuse the grace of God, that's between them and God. MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS.

[@eddiebaker2368]

This issue has been asked and answered on this platform EXTENSIVELY. And your stupid exaggeration is about as unlikely as the prospect of convincing all of the works salvation cult group that being eternally saved by grace is even possible. Can you even name a single person that accepted Christ so they could "commit adultery, fornication and even commit murder, never ever repent and do so 24/7/365 and still be saved?" I doubt it. Every born again Christian still sins. The very idea that anyone will stop ALL sinning is preposterous. Even my own grandmother was a worrier, though that was about the only sin I ever remember from her.

[@DannyLoyd]

@@ALLL135 What I said is what GES believes, it is called ONCE SAVED ALWAYS SAVED. So, tell us, if someone ABUSES THE GRACE OF GOD, after they have been saved, are they still saved? If they depart from the faith and give heed to doctrine of demons, 1Tim 4:1, are they still saved? If they have an EVIL UNBELIEVING HEART, falling away from the living God, Heb 3:12, are they still saved? GES says that yes they are, and tell us, are those of us who believe you must WALK IN THE LIGHT, walk by the Spirit and obey his commands, are we abusing the grace of God? And yet GES says we are work salvationist, and we are lost. But you can have an evil unbelieving heart, depart from the faith etc....and yet GES says you are still saved.

[@timgrady4630]

You're a sinner , according to the infallible Word of God . When you sin are you "24/7/365" walking in the Light , Continuously believing and obeying Him ?? Did Jesus Judicially Propitiate for some of your Wicked , Evil , Nasty sins ...or ALL of them ? Do you think your imperfect and entirely fallible behavioral performance (works) till death will be rewarded with/paid with His Free and Never Deserving Gift of endless Life after physical death ? So , we're all in the same Boat . All Undeserving of His Meritless Gift . Therefore , you too have a "License to sin" , very obviously . Only issue that matters forever is : did the work of Redemption that He performed actually take away the Judicial Penalty , or not . Scripture unequivocally affirms His Full & Finished Propitiation (1 John 2:2) . He did it all by Himself , without any of our "help" via behavioral performance (works) . That's why His doubtless Guarantee of Everlasting Life is Free of ALL Cost to its recipients, because He did it ALL for Us . Can't add to an Infinite Payment . Can't Earn the Unearnable . Can't Work for a Free Gift . Doesn't make sense to a little child that there's a Performance Contract till death hidden inside their Birthday or Christmas Gift .

@@eddiebaker2368 So, then answer, can a person have an " evil unbelieving heart and fall away from the living God", Heb 3:12 and still be saved? Can a person " Depart from the faith and give heed to doctrine of demons" and still be saved? So, Paul has stupid exaggerations? And tell us, how long does someone "DEPART FROM THE FAITH'? The fact of the matter, GES and apparently you, believe after a person is saved they can commit the works of the flesh, commit fornication, adultery and even murder and yet heaven will still be there home, correct!! So, tell us why would Paul warn about walking in the flesh in Romans 8? Gal 5? And can you prove there is no person who accepted Christ so they could sin? The point is, there is no exaggeration, it is what GES believes.... So, tell us, must we walk in the light? 1 John 1:7 Must we obey his commands, 1 John 2:4? Must we walk by the Spirit? Romans 8 Can we walk in darkness, and still be saved? Can we disobey his commands and still be saved? walk by the flesh and still be saved? GES says that after you are saved, you can walk in darkness as 1 John 1:6 says, and you will still be saved, correct!! and GES believes that I am lost, for I believe you must walk in the light, correct? This is the consequences of OSAS....doctrine of demons.
