U
Ralphie,
Let's deal with this one statement you have made. You have stated it very clearly so I assume you do sincerely believe what you have stated.
I and will assume to know your position on this because you made a clear statement of belief. I will make my position clear too...nothing sends me more than when I hear/read this accusation......just an fyi
You are not the only one to make this false accusation, they also accused Paul of the same thing.
When you say grace is a license to sin you are actually using distorted reasoning by any moral human being by saying "let us do evil that good may come"
So you accuse me and some others of this moral perversion by this statement. Why?
Because your thinking is this....... if God eliminates works in every way, as a basis to determine the righteousness of one's salvation of a person and places it solely upon the work of Jesus, then you twist that and you say it makes no difference how a saved person lives.
You miss truth with perverted reasoning, to preach Grace is to settle our trust in our Saviour not a license to sin
Are you following Ralphie? .....
But since Paul dealt with this slander he made a statement about it, I will also let you read what he said.
Romans 3:8
8Why not say, as some slanderously claim that we say, “- Let us do evil that good may result?” Their condemnation is deserved!
Did you catch that last line, those who slanderously say let us do evil that good may come, their condemation is deserved
Are you ready to retract this false allegation that some here promote a license to sin?
That's making grace a license to sin

How do you know a position that I have not said either way I have? You're assuming you know my position. Which is fine. You can do that if you want. But you'd probably be SHOCKED if I told you everything that I think about once saved always saved and the Bible. Utterly shocked. Both Calvinists and Arminians.
But anyway if two people stand before Jesus at his return and neither believes, and because they don't believe they have no works, they both go into the furnace, not into the kingdom. Now, explain what it matters if one of them never believed to begin with and the other did believe but fell away? You'll see that once saved always saved is absolutely irrelevant to whether a person living in a Galatians 5:23 life will be saved when Jesus comes back. Absolutely irrelevant. The only way that it could be relevant is if you believe that the unchanged person will be saved despite his 'living in' sin. That's making grace a license to sin.
