Even tho certain people use the term "hyper-grace" in a disparaging way...in reality..it really is hyper..the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ is very biblical ...:)

We hold the sermon on the mount applies to all christians and through the cross we have power to obey.
There are two distortion hyper grace add to the sermon on the mount.
We must be perfect in everything, we must never get angry.

We are called to love our enemies as God does, because He is perfect, so we also should do this.

Hyper-grace believe it is impossible to walk blamelessly, and interpret the law as just stating so.
Now we agree this is what the law does to those who are trying to justify themselves by the law.
But those who walk in love overcome the limitations of the flesh, and walk in obedience to Jesus's commands.

But this is where they say we are lying, because they believe and find it is impossible for them to do. But rather than work through their problems they change their theology. Not a good combination.
You say that it all applies to us, but when Jesus said you must be perfect, as perfect as the Father in Heaven, you want to discount it and make it mean "just do your best". Doing your best is a program for failure.

Hyper-grace is a term that Dr. Brown came up with because he doesn't agree with some aspects of the grace of Christ. Like our sins are forgiven...and there is a lot of assumptions and "twists" in what is being said too...here is a common one..grace believers don't believe in confessing sins..it's a lie based on "twisting" the words some speak....we are forgiven children of God...and we love to come to our Father and tell him our sins and about everything in our lives.

Works-based salvationists are very antagonistic towards the grace of Christ as it exposes their self-righteousness and their own efforts to "keep" salvation that is "freely given as a gift" by the grace of Christ through faith only.
No, he doesn't agree with the teachings of free grace doctrine, which is based on a careless interpretation of scripture, that later was morphed by Prince and others into hyper-grace, which is a total abomination that redefines and twists numerous biblical words and concepts, and tries to eliminate the authority of some of Jesus' words (among other things as well).

Just to note.

I have been to alot of churches all over the united states (being military you travel alot) I have never heard a grace preacher, or follower say we should not go to God and confess our sins.

Most of the retoric of grace teaches this comes from people who do not understand it, Not from them themselves.

Everyone there is no point in attacking each other, we all are lacking in some way or form I am just as guilty as nikki or anyone else of doing these things sometimes but my heart wasn't changed with a heated debate my heart was changed because of the kindness and the love and patience that was shown to me.

Our job isn't to prove our doctrines and views and beliefs correct besides no one has every view and doctrine and belief correct, how is the heart of God who he is going to shine if we only bicker and debate? Jesus said we are the salt and light of the world now ask yourselves are you shining his light?

Can you back your claims? I think people have backed my claims against this person already.

All you have done is attack me then want me banned because I don't subscribe to your new gospel. Newsflash!!!!!! Most Christians do not follow this different gospel. Just sayin

I love ya bro.

It is one thing to get into a heated debate, we may even slip and call someone something out of anger,,

It is another to call people every name in the book in almost every post you make.
to refuse to answer peoples questions, but keep attacking with non provoked nger and name calling or strawmen arguments.

Oh okay, that's new to me. So I guess it comes down to whether free will is superior to the constraint of the Holy Spirit?
The holy spirit is gentle and meek. In terms of obedience to GOD, the spirit doesn't force anyone to do anything against their will. So it all boils down to what a person chooses to do.

The devil made 'em do it.

'smatter? Can't take a joke?
No, I cannot condone "joking" when people are already so offended that they are ready to leave the discussion.

I've read through the thread again today, and I see not much love.

We've all got some room for improvement.

Some people just like to live in a state of being offended, so I don't lose any sleep over it.

True he has called everyone horrible thins he treated others harshly as did all of us to each other Jesus was treated worse was called even worse things but how did he respond? True he rebuked the pharisee's a couple times but for the most part he responded in kindenss patience was calm exactly as still waters.

how we respond and react to such a harsh treatment decides more than we know. every word every action is like a pebble falling in a puddle of water it creates ripples starting our small but increasing in size affect people and lives. but the kind of ripple that is made is up to us

1. I asked you a simple question yesterday, about how reading something someone who has been dead for centuries can tell you what I believe. You got mad, and said I attacked you ( a few people has attemtped to show you this, You attacked them also)

2. I even asked you to stop responding to me, and answer another gentleman's questions, You got even madder.

3. You have never answered my questions, or even his, and all you have done from that point on is attack me, call me every name in the book, and bear false witness against me.


1. I do not want you banned because you preach a different gospel MANY OF MY FRIENDS IN HERE TEACH A DIFFERENT GOSPEL
2. I questioned why you are still here because all you do is call people names, attack everyone who does not agree with you, and never respond to questions you are asked, This is a bible discussion forum, Not a lets attack anyone who asked us a question about the word of God when it does not line up with my interpretation of said word.

and by the way, Our posts are still available for all to see.. So if you want me to go back and re post them to prove what I just said is right KEEP IT UP!

The true grace of God exposes the self-righteousness of people. That is the real reason why they are opposed to the grace of Christ.

Sometimes you hear certain ones say " We must obey God.."...a very true saying...what they mean and what the grace of Christ means in the New Covenant are entirely different things.

They will say " You have to keep "yourself" holy "....to be holy in our outward behavior is what the Lord wants but the "works-based" people say that "they" are doing it.

Grace believers say that the Life of Christ in them is doing the transforming by the Holy Spirit.,,,one is relying on "themselves" ....the other is relying on the life of Christ in them.

The self-righteous saying that " They keep themselves holy"...They can be filled with malice and slander towards some one in the body of Christ and in reality the are the same as people practicing homosexuality. We see this in certain ones here on CC

They are both works of the flesh. But to the legalists - they are "holier" and "abiding in Christ"..while the practicing homosexual is cursed....these are the true hypocrites....denying the Lord and Master to do their own works of righteousness while condemning every one else.......it's the nature of the beast...

Jesus didn't ignore those who attacked him I believe his words were Father forgive them. What he is worthy of is not our decision that is God's

I would suggest grace7x77 is being ungracious.

The theology is about future sin is not forgiven, we are expected empowered by the cross to walk in righteousness.

Now I do not mind what you choose to take as your theology or method of belief, but to say I am evil, unsaved, in need of repentance, when I am following Jesus's words, that is wrong. It is condemnation and judgementalism.

So though hyper-grace appears to be doing people a service in emphasising the loving nature of God, the sting in the tail is to say normal christians do not have the gospel at all. So this doctinal view is speading hatred and condemnation. If you dare to question their position rather than comparing points of view, they put their perspective as the only one.

As has been pointed out by many this is typical of cultists and the brainwashed. They continually claim they have had their mind changed, rather than the only way to resolve their behaviour with their beliefs is to take this odd theology. Emotions are powerful things, and willfully blind a person who wants to run away from a difficult problem.

That is one of the straw-man arguments that they put up...it's a complete deception. We all say that the true grace of God teaches us to live godly in this present world..but it is still being thrown around as if it's true...it's very deceptive and reveals where that antagonism comes from...



Hypergrace - Grace same difference.

Hyper-grace does not teach licentiousness.. No one has proven yet in weeks and weeks of debate that they do..

I keep hearing people claim it does. Then I read their proof, and talk to people who they say teach it, And they teach nothing new under the sun.

Some examples that refute your teaching. There are many others.

Lay hands on no one hastily, and do not participate in the sins of others. Keep yourself pure. 1 Timothy 5:22

Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking forward to the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to eternal life. Jude 1:21

And you are blind. Your Grace only crowd says anything for God is works based Salvation and I don't understand why. I guess this is a site for the blind leading the blind to eternal damnation. If I'm wrong for standing up against this, then you are all so far gone, i hope my prayers will help

hmmmm....what you posted above is really not true...you are relatively new here and I've been here for about a year and I have never seen anyone posting what you state

seems your music might be a little 'flat' after all

why are you so aggressive? it's really not helping with any points you may want to make

further, stating 'this site' is for the blind leading the blind is a knock against everyone here
