We always want to remember that the main story of God, is his love.
That’s the foundation of all our hopes and the reason for the message.
That God would give his only begotten son to die for our sins, so that we would be with him for all eternity…if we chose to follow Christ.
And lots of times, as believers, we are criticized when we talk about God’s love and mention that he’s a “ Just” God as well.
I believe Satan is sending a strong delusion to people. Christian and non-Christians alike are included, and he is planting seeds in their minds. That God is all about love, period! No matter what you do or how you live or what your beliefs are, it’s ok because of Gods grace.
I am not disputing God‘s amazing Grace, but his grace is not a license to sin, that makes it “cheap grace” that’s not Christ at all.
And although God is about love, mercy, compassion and he loves his people fiercely, he cannot allow sin in his presence.
So, this is where some people are veering into a different direction. They’re creating, in their mind, a God who loves them so much he will tolerate any sin and turn a blind eye concerning any action or any lifestyle that they want to live. All of this in order to pacify their sin.
This is wrong. These kinds of people, when they talk about love, will make it sound good even though they have to twist scripture to do so.
*The Bible is the sole objective source of all God has given us about Himself and His plan for all people, period!
As the infallible Word of God, the Bible is inerrant, authoritative, reliable, and sufficient to meet all of our needs.
Each claim, belief or teaching of ANY movement should be filtered through the Word of God, and whatever does not line up with Scripture should be rejected.
*Progressive Christianity
For I resolved to know nothing while I was with you except Jesus Christ and him crucified.
1 Corinthians 2:2
Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
1 John 14:6
For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear.
They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths.
2 Timothy 4:3-4
The only way that we are going to be prepared for this delusional spirit that is bent on destruction towards us, is to be prepared and to know God really well.
All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.
2 Timothy 3:16-17
But time is running out. Turn from those ways and back to God. He loves you fiercely!
Every word of God is flawless; he is a shield to those who take refuge in him. Do not add to his words, or he will rebuke you and prove you a liar.
Proverbs 30:5-6
We definitely have to RUN from anyone who twists or subtracts from Gods Holy Word.
Now the Spirit expressly says that in later times some will depart from the faith by devoting themselves to deceitful spirits and teachings of demons.
1 Timothy 4:1
Seek God closely, know the scripture well so that you don’t believe any nonsense, seek God’s face and pray hard!
Many Blessings,
