The Failed Gospel by davidinchrist(m): 9:39pm On Apr 21, 2020
The gospel of Jesus is revealed in Grace and Truth: not just one of them. (John 1:14)

Grace = the Love of God
Truth = Judgement/Wrath of God

The gospel of Grace without Truth is as Demonic as that with Truth without Grace; no matter how it's painted. God's will for us is to be Balanced. There two major common extremes among christians and churches: the prosperity preachers (grace without truth); legalistic preachers (truth without grace). Have you seen a bodybuilder with only one side of his body built up, and the muscle of the side budging over, while the other side looks relatively paralysed? Definitely, he'll look pretty pathetic like those who have had failed plastic or body-building surgeries or procedures.

However, we should seek God's complete Will; not just a part of it, in order not to continued being pathetic spiritually, in any case.

John 1:14 KJV
And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his GLORY, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of *GRACE AND TRUTH.*

Hebrews 10:26-29 KJV
For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth No More sacrifice for sins, [27] But a certain fearful looking for of Judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.

[28] He that despised Moses' law died without mercy under two or three witnesses: [29] Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace?

May Jesus Give You Light.

John 15:6,10 KJV
If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.

[10] If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.

And he said unto them, Full well ye REJECT the commandment of God, that ye may keep YOUR OWN tradition.

[13] Making the word of God of NONE effect through YOUR tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye.

4 You happily put up with whatever anyone tells you, even if they preach a "Different Jesus" than the one we preach, or a "Different kind of Spirit" than the one you received, or a "Different kind of Gospel" than the one you believed.
