TOPIC: Grace To Sin?
MEMORISE: Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. Philippians 2:12
BIBLE READING: Psalm 7:11
11 God judgeth the righteous, and God is angry with the wicked every day.
MESSAGE:
l once listened to a teaching of a man on YouTube who said that God is love and once He saves you, you’re forever saved. He also mentioned that salvation has brought grace which covers your sins. So, when you sin, you shouldn’t feel condemned but rather, believe that God has overlooked your sin since you are already His child. Clearly, his statement is a lie from the pit of hell because God’s grace is meant to keep you from sinning and not empower you to sin.Open Heaven merchandise
There is no doubt that God is love. However, saying that He will condone a fellow’s sinful lifestyle after his or her salvation is heresy. The reason He said that believers should work out their salvation with fear and trembling is that when the time of judgment comes, He will show up as a Consuming Fire to judge their sins.
My dear child, don’t believe the lie of the devil; a sinful lifestyle will lead you to hell, and the devil is preparing to allocate rooms to those who would be his tenants. I pray that you will not be one of his tenants, in Jesus’ name.
KEY POINT:
The grace of God does not give liberty to sin; rather, it strengthens you to say NO to sin.
