Grace Revolution? Or the Man of Lawlessness Revealed?

Book Cover & Preview Text
We need God’s grace or empowerment to make this a love letter to those who have blessed us for many years with their Holy-Spirit-inspired revelations and especially to those they have unwittingly misled with a subtle and popular deception they call the grace revolution. We aim to show that God doesn’t lie, and that His Word is consistent in teaching the exact opposite of this wind of doctrine that is flooding the earth.
We want by the grace of Jesus to explain clearly from God’s Word the falseness you may have assumed to be biblical, but is instead a clever deception that could open the door for the universal church to beckon its protesting daughters back into the fold. Sadly, and surprisingly, wolves in sheep’s clothing are about to start what looks like the great end-time apostasy or great falling away.
As we enter 2016, the Christian world is embracing a prophesied apostasy that will lead to the appearance of the man of lawlessness who will fight Jesus at His coming. The Bible says that a little leaven or sin leavens the whole lump (1 Cor. 5:6). Every month that this grace revolution continues, the arguments get further afield from God’s Word, making a 2016 update at the very end of this book necessary. The information contained in the update is extremely important. Don’t miss it, even if you have to turn there right now.
In this book I want to show that God is Love and that “love is the fulfillment of the law” (Rom. 13:10). I pray you can see “this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments, and His commandments are not burdensome” (1 John 5:3). I also hope you can see the gospel that Jesus preached was that “the kingdom of God is at hand,” so we need to “repent and believe in the gospel” (Mark 1:15). For two whole years Paul welcomed all who came to him, “preaching the kingdom of God” (Acts 28:31).
I must show you why this teaching is heresy from God’s Word. I do hope, however, that you will see that the God of the law is kinder than the god of false grace. He gave us the laws of His Kingdom of Love to protect us within his fatherly boundaries. He didn’t give the law to condemn us, but to bless us and to see His children live joyous, successful lives. “Do good, get good,” sounds like we are doing it ourselves. That’s not true. We allow Jesus in us to do it with the cooperation of our will. His true grace is more than enough to enable us to overcome every weakness, to endure every trial, and to climb every mountain in life.
Do you think you will have a vibrant, abundant and eternal life doing your own thing your own way, doing what is right your eyes? God’s law is called “the way” in Acts. It’s a way of life based on the rules of the Kingdom, laws of love made because our Daddy in heaven loves us more than we can even imagine. He’s given us the path to overflowing joy and delight, the law that we delight in and gladly obey, because it’s the way to peace (Ps. 119:35, 163-165).
Some of you, I hope many of you, don’t have peace about this grace revolution. You can’t put your finger on it yet, but you will as you use your fingers to flip to verses in every part of your Bible, verses that will make you wonder how you were ever enamored with this revolutionary teaching or why you never really understood it. It’s so easy to be deceived when all the demons of deception have been unleashed to marshal the best of men to fight the returning Jesus.
We love God’s people, and we don’t want you to be deceived. We want you to be part of the Bride of Jesus.
Why should you listen to me? First of all, I am speaking God’s Word without my private interpretation. What I write is based on years of studying law and grace and the various and sundry heresies on those subjects, whether it be legalism or greasy grace. It’s an easy subject to be misunderstood when addressing, so I’m going to say like politicians, “Let me be clear.” They hardly ever are, but I want God’s Word to speak loud and clear.
I am a law keeper by grace. Jesus in me is the Grace or empowerment to walk in the gift of righteousness He has given me. I often fall short of my Father’s standard of perfection (Mat. 5:48), so I need His mercy, which is only a small part of grace, every day.
The perfect righteousness of Jesus as He did what His Father said by the power of the Holy Spirit is an unearned gift. I didn’t earn it and you can’t either. Nothing in this book should be construed to mean that you have a salvation by your own works or effort. God calls our own righteous efforts to keep the law filthy rags (Isa. 64:6).
Righteousness is a gift, yet it has a definition. Love Himself, our Father in heaven through His Son Jesus, defines it. Neither you nor I have any right to define righteousness. There’s a right way of living, and a wrong way. To decide for ourselves right and wrong was what God told Adam not to do.
The tree God forbade represented good and evil, or deciding what is good and evil. That tree didn’t symbolize the law. It represented mankind deciding what should be called good and evil, righteous or unrighteous. It was like Israel when everyone did what was right is his own eyes because they had no king and thus no law.
The gospel of God is the gospel of the Kingdom of God.

About the Book
The grace revolution is a rebellion against God, opening the Christian world to accepting a man of lawlessness and to fighting Jesus at His coming. Televangelists have convinced a majority of the Christian world to tell God that His definition of grace is all wrong, that grace means His law of love is done away. They are calling the Father and Jesus liars and telling God they know better, saying we can believe Paul’s words, but not Jesus’ words. As this most important book by a pastor and author who faced the false grace heresy a half-century ago and has studied it thoroughly over the years appears, the anti-law, end-time falling away has begun, becoming the norm for the Christian world. Few understand the danger: it opens the door for the appearance of the man of lawlessness whom Jesus will destroy at His coming. You can be one of the few who escape this great last days’ falling away. This book is the first to lay bare the weakness of all the arguments of this end-time apostasy. It reveals the true biblical grace, principally the empowerment to keep God’s law of love as well as opening the door to reap its abundant blessings. You don’t have to fall for this heresy, condemned by Jesus (Mat. 5:17-20).
