The Daily Word of Righteousness
The Perversion of Grace, #11
Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God. But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin. For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end; (Hebrews 3:12-14)
Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it. (Hebrews 4:1)
Of whom we have many things to say, and hard to be uttered, seeing ye are dull of hearing. For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat. (Hebrews 5:11,12)
For the earth which drinketh in the rain that cometh oft upon it, and bringeth forth herbs meet for them by whom it is dressed, receiveth blessing from God: But that which beareth thorns and briers is rejected, and is nigh unto cursing; whose end is to be burned. But, beloved, we are persuaded better things of you, and things that accompany salvation, though we thus speak. (Hebrews 6:7-9)
And we desire that every one of you do shew the same diligence to the full assurance of hope unto the end: That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises. (Hebrews 6:11,12)
For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins, But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries. (Hebrews 10:26,27)
But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul. (Hebrews 10:39)
Today's Christian scholars, teachers, pastors, and evangelists in many instances are not presenting the teachings of the Scripture. The scholars are following blindly their deductions from the "key verses" they have chosen. They are not adhering to what the Scriptures state. Rebellious man is perverting the Word of the most high God.
It is possible to make a profession of Christ and then be cast away. Jesus Himself declared that the unfruitful branch will be cut out of the vine (John 15:2).
Notice the implications of the following parable:
Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a net, that was cast into the sea, and gathered of every kind: which, when it was full, they drew to shore, and sat down, and gathered the good into vessels, but cast the bad away. So shall it be at the end of the world: the angels shall come forth, and sever the wicked from among the just, (Matthew 13:47-49)
The angels shall come forth at the end of the age and separate the wicked from among the righteous. What wicked and what righteous? The wicked from among the righteous of the Kingdom of Heaven. The wicked shall be removed from the Kingdom of Heaven at the end of the age. Does this sound like grace that is separate from works? Does this agree with a "pre-tribulation rapture"?
Or is this just for the Jews? Are the Jews the only members of the Kingdom of Heaven?
What unscriptural doctrines are preached in our day!
To be continued.
