Steve Copland | "Just Believe": The Cheap-grace Perversion of Salvation. @stevecopland6001 | Uploaded 3 months ago | Updated 3 hours ago
There are those who teach that a person can merely believe certain historical facts about Jesus Christ and this gives them a free ticket to heaven. This theology is labeled as ‘free grace’ or ‘cheap-grace’. Proponents of this view state that a person can just believe, live any way they wish and go to heaven.
They also state that turning from sin is unnecessary, repentance is just a change of mind, that producing the fruit of the Holy Spirit is no evidence of salvation, and that anyone who just believed and later denied Christ and call themselves atheist, is still going to heaven. This is dangerous and heretical teaching that saves no one.
00:01 Free-grace doctrines.
02:12 Defining grace and works.
05:17 Jesus definition, Luke 18.
08:23 Repentance: Turning from sin.
10:17 Peter’s first sermon: Acts 2
14:40 Free-grace versus true repentance and faith.
17:18 Helping seekers receive real regeneration.
