I dedicate this e-book to the memory of Steve Hill. Steve stayed with Jesus during a seven-year health trial with his faithful wife by his side every step of the challenging way. One of the most important and prophetic visions he had was one in which he saw in vivid images a spiritual avalanche, and he has a book by that title that warns of a coming and great deception that could cause the death of millions. He always sought truth, and he chose to guard the truth God gave him without letting go. He was passionate about truth, as I am. He got emotional about the prospect of having to try to rescue unsuspecting saints from the avalanche of false doctrine that is now descending upon them. He foresaw this grace revolution, and one of his colleagues, Dr. Michael Brown, has also written books on this hyper grace. We, God and I, thank Dr. Brown for speaking against these layers of false teaching that have come in a way we have never seen before. These are the very last days, and all the spirits of deception have been released from the pit to prey on sincere and unsuspecting pastors, TV evangelists, and gullible saints who need someone to extend a pole to find them under the snow and pull them to safety. For some few, it could be a matter of “snatching them out of the fire” of hell (Jude 23) before they turn from the truth they once believed for a clever, end-time lie, a grace rebellion against the King of the Kingdom and His laws. They are only laws of love, boundaries to keep us far away from death and danger. These laws are good, and God’s love and grace in Jesus fulfill their requirements or demands (Rom. 8:4). Jesus doesn’t give burdens, but He wants for us, as does our Father Love, everything good for us. He wants to pour out blessings upon us. While Satan stole a dedicated man of God from us, God will receive him now for his reward. Other men of God, dedicated but misled, are now basking in the accolades of millions of believers who haven’t checked what they heard in the Book of Love and truth. Grace and truth came indeed with Jesus. He is the Grace that fulfills the law, but deception and death come from Satan, the one who inspires men to twist the pure and unadulterated truth. You will read this truth in this e-book, the fruit of nearly fifty years of study of this subject by a pastor of over forty years and the author of a number of books. This author joins the valiant, past efforts of Steve and the present efforts of Dr. Brown to pull sincere Christians out of the snow or out of the fire before it’s too late, In these last and perilous days, truth is being attacked and “honesty is such a lonely word.” We pray for the comfort and continued success of Steve’s family, friends, and ministry. We pray especially that you all will keep your eyes on Jesus and your fingers in the pages of His Word so you will not fall. God bless you. Pastor Robert B. Scott
TV evangelists have begun to resurrect an old heresy that is deadly serious. They say that the words of Jesus are not to be taken seriously because He was talking to those under law, which they say is done away. They preach a gospel of grace and not the gospel that will be preached before the end, the gospel of the Kingdom, the same one Jesus preached (Mark 1:14-15; Mat. 24:14). It’s not a revolution, but a lawless deception and rebellion. As an author and Bible student for some fifty years, I have known the truth about law and grace these charismatic preachers have abandoned. We even play their videos and audios in the church I pastor and at http://www.freedomtruthseekers.com. Nevertheless, we see in their twisting of truth that millions are applauding as a dangerous open door to the prophesied last day’s apostasy leading to the appearance of the man of lawlessness. We don’t condemn anyone to hell, and we explain briefly the extensive and unknown truth about hell. We love and respect these gifted TV evangelists, yet God has commissioned us to warn you of the lawlessness they teach, which Jesus condemns in Matthew 5:19. I am compelled to warn you of a deception ending in Jesus destroying the man of lawlessness and those who follow him (2 Thes. 2:3-8). Never has there been such an urgent need for an e-book, especially in the wake of a lawless mother church beckoning even charismatics back to the fold. They are accepting unity with the mother church, a shocking fulfillment of prophecy. All who prayerfully read need to check everything in their Bible. Don’t believe them or us. Believing right means to believe God and His Word.
First, why should you listen to me? Number one, I am speaking God’s Word without my private interpretation. What I write is based on years 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 He 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. The gospel of God is the gospel of the Kingdom of God. Mark 1:14-15 shows clearly this was the gospel Jesus preached and Acts 28:30-31 shows that Paul wasn’t lying when he said to follow him as he followed Jesus (1 Cor. 11:1) because he preached the same gospel. The Kingdom of God is not only the gospel but also the theme of the Bible. Adam became king of the earth. God made him in His image, yet he had free will, as we also have. Jesus came to be the last Adam, dying for the lawlessness Adam committed. Adam and those born after him adopted a sin nature, which Jesus replaced in us when we accepted him. God’s definition of righteousness was simple at first. It was only, “Don’t eat of that tree.” Satan even twisted that, saying, “Did God really mean what He said?” He has always meant what He said, and the saying “Jesus did it all” is misleading. He told the woman who broke the law by committing adultery, that He didn’t condemn her, yet He said, “Go and sin no more.” Jesus is the One who gave the Law to Moses, and later He came as Grace and Truth. He is the Grace and the Love inside us that empowers us to keep the law He gave to Moses and amplified in the New Testament. It’s essentially the same power Jesus received from His Father to keep the law perfectly, the Holy Spirit.
