[h=2]Luke 8:13[/h] But the ones on the rock are those who, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, who believe for a while and in time of temptation fall away.
[h=2]John 6:66[/h] From that time many of His disciples went back and walked with Him no more.
[h=2]Matthew 24:10-12[/h] And then many will be offended, will betray one another, and will hate one another. Then many false prophets will rise up and deceive many. And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold.
[h=2]2 Timothy 3:1-7[/h] But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, holy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away!
For of this sort are those who creep into households and make captives of gullible women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts, always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
[h=2]2 Timothy 4:3-4[/h] For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables.
[h=2]Jeremiah 17:5[/h] Thus says the LORD: “Cursed is the man who trusts in man And makes flesh his strength, Whose heart departs from the LORD.
Rev2:4
Nevertheless I have somewhat against you, because you have left your first love.

True freedom recognizes obligation. Freedom to do as one wishes is not freedom. There is no model of freedom found in scripture that is not bound by constraint. Scripture itself serves as a set of revealed constraints that obligate us to obey whatever comes out of the mouth of God. When one views freedom as latitude to do as one wishes this is a failure to understand what true freedom is. The Bible shows us that when we choose to do as we wish this is sin. Sin is the freedom to do as one wishes. Paul says this is what we have been freed from and have now become slaves to righteousness. This is true freedom.
The critique of "works based theology" is rooted within the paradigm of the theology developed in the Reformation. That being the premise of "monergism" where God does ALL the work due to the "inability doctrine" which sits at the foundation of Reformed theology. Upon this basis is introduced the teaching of "Penal Substitution" (developed in the 16th century) where the basis of Justification is in a forensic legal exchange (ie. Jesus obeyed and was punished as a substitute) out of which the "Christ Alone + Nothing" is expounded.
The above is actually part of the falling away, it is not in opposition to it as so many may like to believe.
Jesus taught that the dynamic that brings salvation is "hearing + doing." It is in the DOING that transformation of the heart occurs. The grace of God that brings salvation teaches us to deny ungodliness and worldy lusts and to live soberly, uprightly in the present age. It is through godly sorrow working repentance unto salvation that an individual is positioned into a state where they are wholeheartedly yielded to the grace of God. This is the dynamic of "saved by grace THROUGH faith."
Satan has subverted "hearing and doing" via the fallacy of "Christ alone + nothing." Thus converts under this deception merely "confess" a state of sinfulness (which people are convinced cannot be forsaken due to inability doctrine) and then "trust" in the provision of "Christ alone + nothing." Thus salvation is redefined to be a mere abstraction as opposed to a transformation. The transformation in this doctrine is relegated to something that occurs later on down the road in sanctification. Thus it is perceived that those whom are saved remain "workers of iniquity" and passages like 1Joh 1:8 and Rom 7:14-28 are twisted to support such a notion.
Jesus taught that we are to strive to enter in at the strait gate and endure the narrow way which leads to life. The word strive literally means to diligently put in great effort or work.
When the Bible teaches "not of works" it is referring to the fact that outward rule keeping is not the dynamic of transformation. Salvation is wrought via "grace THROUGH faith" which is simply the dynamic of "wholehearted yielding to God." Law keepers rigidly hold to rules and regulations apart from the dynamic of "grace THROUGH faith" and that is the error Paul is contending against in his letter to the Galatians.
We are in a very dark time in the world today and genuine Christianity is manifested in only the few. Satan's ministers control the platform being the seminaries, tv stations, publishing houses, book stores, radio etc.
Jesus has warned that MANY people will cry out, "Lord, Lord" and Jesus will reject them. Jesus will call them "workers of iniquity."
These people who professed Jesus as Lord NEVER ceased from iniquity because in their mind they did not have to. Instead they trusted in a salvation that was a mere abstraction of the mind. They unfortunately rejected the transformative dynamic wrought through yielding wholeheartedly to God, a transformative dynamic which produced genuine purity of heart.
Please consider.

Just because I say I have the freedom to choose good or bad does NOT in any way imply that it would be good or beneficial for me to do so, but it also does not change the fact that free IS free. There is NO love relationship that wants ANY obligatory service. If someone lays down there life for another, there would be nothing right or acceptable in of an obligatory sacrafice. You serve out of a humble gratitude

you have just proved my point sir. Like I said, clear through History, the Christ + nothingers have been amongst the most unpopular crowd because their mouths didn't fair well for the hierarchies in place. The institutions needed the people to believe that they MUST do and GIVE according to their dogmas else the system would fail. These great martyrs loved God and believed in protecting their Saviors precious blood from the vampires.

Settle a controversy with your accuser quickly, before he gets you into court; or your adversary may deliver you to the judge, the judge deliver you to the officer, and you be put into prison. Truly I say to you: You will never come out of there until you have paid the last penny.

Gods word is applicable to ALL people at ALL times
16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
17 That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.
Same problems/different days. God gives us all we need. We are saved unto good works, NOT by them!!!
