The Lord supernaturally brought to me the message of the gospel of grace even before I watched anyone speak about it. One morning He started to put scriptures in my spirit and then for a few months after that every day He would give me more. I listened to no one until months after I had digested and meditated on those scriptures He gave me...Rhema words
...the first one I heard was Rob Rufus. When I first heard Joseph Prince talk it was about 1 John 1:9..I said..he's a heretic for sure....and I shut him out completely....lol...my religious mind balked at what he said....
The Lord was faithful to me and took me around Prince to other people..... .each of them giving me a "part"..then it came to me and now I say.." How did I not see that?"..
....revelation is like that..don't you find?
I didn't know I was hyper-grace until I read it one day in Charisma Mag....who knew???....
I heard a
Bob George teaching on the New Covenant, and I was like, YES! SOMEONE is FINALLY preaching this!!!
My experience is that I've always been a 'Grace' believer, ever since I was 8 \
/. Growing up and into my adult years I've been around so many different streams of faith - but Grace always made sense and was never weird or out there and was completely compatible with all cultures, ages, etc.
That concept has matured, especially in the last 8 or 9 years.
In my capacity as JGIG, my primary focus has been in examining the beliefs found in the Hebrew Roots Movement. I have written much on the New Covenant Gospel of Grace and what that actually means. Through these last several years, I've found areas even in what I've believed to be challenged - where was I mixing Law and Grace? Where were theological systems I was coming across mixing Law and Grace, formulas and Grace, mis-perceptions of God and His Law and Grace?
I take everything back to Scripture, and issues that are not clear, I'm willing to set aside and just let them be until God shows me clarity on an issue.
On the Core Issues, however, the Scriptures are completely clear. The Gospel of Grace and a bunch of the teachers out there preaching God's Good News are right on target.
That's a good thing. Both believers and unbelievers are being pointed to Christ and His Work.
Again, that's a GOOD THING, folks!
