THOSE THAT PREACH GRACE

ARE FIRST TO THROW STONES

By Watchman Dean

Christ DIED for you but is belief in that enough for you to be saved? Is salvation purely by belief
in the free gift that Christ gave when he DIED for you on the cross for your sins? Or is there
something more required for you salvation? Do you have to believe that "God raised him from
the Dead?" In order to be saved? If so, do the Christians, by saying that he rose himself from
the dead, actually nullify the DEATH and thus the RESURRECTION. (For if he's God then he didn't
really die, which means he didn't really RISE from the dead).

Have you ever noticed that those who preach grace the most are the first ones to throw out and
cast stones at the sins of others' when those others disagree with them? If I've seen it 100 times
I've seen it 1000 or more. They preach grace, you see, but it's only grace for them and for those
who agree with them. If you don't agree with them, then suddenly they come to your
FACEBOOK page and begin scrutinizing your posts and the posts of your friends and the memes
you saved etc.

They call you names like "sinner" and "evil" and "child of the devil" even though they've already
said that you are saved by grace (regardless of your works) and say that no matter what sin you
commit, you are saved by the grace of God; But again, that doesn't apply to those people that
don't agree with them.

I can give you a perfect example.

If you say to them "Jesus is not God" they will then call you "unsaved" and "child of the devil"
and scrutinize your life looking to find the sin "evidence" that they shouldn't listen to you. (All
the while saying that you have no choice but to overlook THEIR SINS because God has forgotten
them and covered them up with Jesus' blood how dare you mention their sins, are you
preaching salvation by works?). They do not see the hypocrisy in this. Not at all.

They say "while I was yet a sinner Christ died for me" and thus "I can be a sinner and Christ's
death will still save me". Meanwhile, they preach that you, another sinner like them, do not
have Christ's death (even though scripture says that he died for the sins of the whole world).
This is where Universalists get the Christian dead to rights. They preach that if Christ died for the
sins of the whole world while the whole world was yet sinners, and if Christ's death saves you
from sin, then everyone is saved.

You can't argue with that logic.

Yet, Christians say, "no, no, you don't understand, Christ died for everyone, but they have to
BELIEVE that Christ died for them in order for it to be true."

I've heard Christians say, "...If you don't believe that Christ died for you, then he didn't."

Say what?

I have to believe something is true in order for it to be true?

Do they hear themselves?

So, if Donald Trump becomes President, for me, if I don't believe he became President for me,
then he didn't. It never happened?

If Christ died for the whole world while they were yet sinners then this would be true whether
they believed he did it or not! When they say "he didn't die for you because you don't believe
it," they nullify what the Apostle said when he said that grace is unconditional! For if Grace is
unconditional and the whole world has grace because Christ died for all of them when they were
yet sinners and his death wipes their sins away and hides them from God, all that is needed for
salvation is his death, and he died for the whole world while they were sinners...

See my point? I don't even have to finish.

Clearly someone is wrong.

What does this mean?

Does it mean that everyone is going to heaven because Christ brought grace?

When they say "no but you have to say the sinner's prayer, admit you are a sinner, and that you
need this grace, and you have to do this or that," they are adding conditions to a grace they
claim is unconditional.

Clearly we need something else besides GRACE and the DEATH OF CHRIST for salvation, or
everyone in the world is now saved having both the DEATH OF CHRIST and GRACE (long before
they were even born or ever sinned).

Enter salvation by grace THROUGH FAITH!

For you while they are correct that you must believe, it's what you must believe that they have
twisted and perverted. NOW, they've added the requirements to Salvation that you must
believe, not only that Jesus Christ died and was risen for you, but that he is God Incarnate, and
you must believe in Trinity. Even though scripture merely requires that you believe he is the
"begotten Son" of God and does not require you believe he's God HImself, or a member of a
trinity.

Nowhere does scripture say, "If you believe that Jesus Christ is God Incarnate," or "you must
believe God come to earth in fleshly form" or "you must confess that he is a member of a trinity
of Godhead" in order for the death of Christ to count.

So, when they call me a sinner, and start scrutinizing my life and FACEBOOK, because I tell them
that Jesus is not God, they are in violation of their own terms of GRACE, which state that even if I
am a SINNER and believe that JESUS IS NOT GOD (they say this is sin and the unforgiveable one
apparently) even if they were right and my lack of faith that Jesus is GOD INCARNATE is a terrible
sin, all I have to do is believe he DIED for me, and I am forgiven, I have GRACE!

So they deny me the GRACE that they claim and take for granted!

Now, they preach that they are saved no matter what they do, but others are not (especially if
those others don't believe their Church's Deity of Christ dogma) even though those others
believe as they do that Jesus Christ died for them. It's quite an eye opener isn't it?

Yet, again they say, "no but you have to believe religion THE WAY I BELIEVE IT." So this is
admittance that they don't really believe that their sins are forgiven because Jesus Christ died for
them, because if they believed that, then they would believe it for me as well whether or not I
agree with their religious dogma!

Yet, scripture does not say that salvation comes from the death of Christ, it says that it comes
from "his life."

Romans 5:
8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

9 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.

10 For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much
more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life.

So, even though Christ died for you, that doesn't make you saved, you are saved "by his life." His
death "reconciles" you to God but that is not salvation apparently or he would have stopped at
the death, there would have been no resurrection (especially if Christ existed from all eternity
without a fleshly body before he died), there would have been no need for a resurrection, and
certainly no need to mention the life (resurrection) when speaking of salvation.
Indeed, Scripture states elsewhere that if you don't believe in the resurrection you are "yet in
your sins."

1 Corinthians 15:
14 And if Christ be not risen, then is our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain.

15 Yea, and we are found false witnesses of God; because we have testified of God that he raised
up Christ: whom he raised not up, if so be that the dead rise not.

16 For if the dead rise not, then is not Christ raised:

17 And if Christ be not raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins.

So, scripture and the Spirit teach expressly that it is not the death of Christ, but his resurrection
that takes away your sins, and without the resurrection you are "yet in your sins."

Now, one might say, "well yes, but in order for him to be resurrected he must die" so they are
equally a part of the role of salvation.

Most assuredly that is a true statement.

However if you have the one but not the other, you aren't saved.

If you have the DEATH but not his resurrection, you are not saved according to 1 Corinthians 15
and you are "yet in your sins." So it is the DEATH and the RESURRECTION that "Takes away sins"
not just the DEATH (blood).

The only way for Christ to sprinkle his own blood on the MERCY SEAT in heaven and gain an
everlasting atonement for you as your High Priest Christ was for him to shed his blood in the first
place, but if he stays in the ground he cannot be your High Priest, neither can he shed his blood
for propitiation on the MERCY SEAT when he ascends to heaven. He must RISE! So it is his
RESURRECTION that finished your work of SALVATION.

Yet Christians quote Christ dying on the cross and with his last breath saying "it is finished," and
preach that their salvation was finished then. So it is his death that saves them, and since the
whole world has his death (he died for the sins of the whole world) therefore the whole world
must be saved and why do we need the Christian or his doctrine?

The Christian himself has made his own religion obsolete by saying salvation is finished by his
death! He died for the sins of the WHOLE WORLD! NOT JUST for those who believe!

So what is the answer, yes the world is reconciled to God with his death but they are "saved by
his life" and you must believe in his resurrection (life) to be SAVED! Just believing in his death
the way Christians do, is NOT ENOUGH!

You might say, "but they preach you must believe in his resurrection."

No, they don't for they say he died and as he died he said "salvation is finished." Therefore, at
that moment the whole world would have been saved! Their own doctrine teaches that the
WORLD is SAVED, salvation was finished when he died and he brought salvation to "all men."

Scripture is the voice of reason in this madness, for it says that you might be reconciled and
changed from an enemy to a friend by the death of Christ, but it's only by your belief that he is
alive and is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him that you find SALVATION.

For faith will bring about a change in you and you will now seek to be LIKE HIM!

This is, unfortunately, the only truth the Catholic Religion carried when the Protestants broke
away from them and equally as unfortunate it is the ONE DOCTRINE that was the bone of
contention for the Protestants. They thought "faith without works is dead" was a lie from SATAN
and that you are saved "by faith alone." James said "can faith alone save you?" Then he said no
it cannot. Yet, somehow they reject the word of James and say that faith alone does indeed save
you and that the Catholic religion was preaching "salvation by works."

So the Protestants broke away because of the TRUTH then kept all the LIES, like deity of Christ
and TRINITY.

You must believe in the RESURRECTION of CHRIST and believe that it proves that he who strives
to walk as Christ walks on this earth will succeed, and will not be left in the grave because they
are one of his HOLY ONES.

I believe we can overcome sin!

For saying this, I've been called a sinner by those who preach Grace.

Yet, the worst you can say about my belief that I can overcome sin, is that if I am wrong and I
cannot overcome sin as Christians say, then it's a "foolish" and "silly" belief. I don't think God is
going to fault me for trying to behave and keep my nose clean. (Even if I fail over and over
again). The Christian can now stand back and mock me, saying, "look at this guy, he keeps
saying he can overcome sin but he never does, he just keeps sinning and sinning, yet he never
gives up on the idea that he can overcome it!" At the worst I look foolish in your eyes.

So they call me a sinner for saying I can overcome sin, saying that "He that says he is without sin
is a liar" and it never occurs to them that this is a contradiction itself. For by my saying I can
overcome sins I am acknowledging that I have sins to overcome, otherwise would I not just say "I
have overcome my sins and I have no more to overcome?"

Yet, I never say that but in their minds I do.

I am acknowledging that I have sins to overcome and they are saying "you claim to be sinless."

If I claimed to be sinless I wouldn't be talking about overcoming my sins.

So we now see how far they have drifted from sound thinking.

Yet, they don't want to hear that they can overcome sins. They say, "NO you ovecome the
PENALTY for the sins, not the sin itself (no one can do that because only Jesus is righteous and
that because he's God)."

They don't want to hear they can overcome sins because next comes the nagging question "if
you can overcome sins why haven't you done so?" That is a question they don't want to answer
and the real sad thing is, there is a very easy answer for it that does not implicate them at all.

We are all "Growing up together" in "unity of the faith" until we are all perfected and are the
"fulness of the stature of Christ." So, none of us might have overcome our sins yet but that
doesn't mean we won't or that we can't. The MINUTE you say you can't overcome your sins, you
deny the faith that you can. For no one is looking for something to happen that they have
already plainly stated will never happen because it's impossible! If I say that something will
never happen how am I "apprehending" that to happen in my life? The answer is, I'm not.

They deny that we can overcome and say that Jesus "overcame for them."

So, in reality, it is they who are saying they "have no sins" (to overcome) for they claim they are
already "overcomers" by the blood of Jesus and God "no longer sees" their sins.

I assure you, if God doesn't see something, then it doesn't exist because he's the creator of all
things and he "binds all things together." So, it is they who are saying "I have no sins" and if you
have no sins then you don't have to overcome them (which is what they say, that Christ
overcame the sin for them). They are not striving to overcome, for they deny their sins and say
that God no longer sees them! How are they NOT saying "I have no sin" they say "what sins?
God doesn't see them." How is that NOT saying "I have no sin?"

Why do they confess their sins? They are confessing to something that doesn't exist (or that God
is determined to say never happened).
It would be like if you worked for the MOB and your committed a crime for the Boss and he
covered up that crime for you, so that no one even knew the crime occurred. Why would you
have to confess to the Crime Boss that you committed this sin? Wouldn't he simply say, "I know
what you did, I'm the one that covered it up?"

They will NEVER overcome their sins for they deny them (saying that God doesn't see them) and
they say there is no need to overcome them for salvation was "finished by Christ on the cross."

Yet, Christ said that we can overcome sin!

Revelation 3: 5
5 He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his
name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels.

Revelation 3:
12 Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more
out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is
new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my
new name.

Revelation 3:
21 To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and
am set down with my Father in his throne.

If we couldnt overcome and Christ already overcame for us because we believe in him, then why
did he say to the Churches, the BELIEVERS that "if they overcome" he will grant this and that? It
would be empty meaningless words and promises for Christ would know that NONE OF YA'll can
OVERCOME!

Christ is urging the believers to overcome, and they are saying "he already overcame for me."

WOW!

Then, despite all this grace they lavish upon themselves, patting themselves on the back for
being such strong "believers" in grace, they will cut down to size anyone who says anything with
which they disagree (especially regarding the deity of Christ) and they violate their own tenets of
Christian religion to do it!

One final note: They will quote John the Baptist, "behold the Lamb of God that takes away the
sins of the world" and use that as evidence that it was his dying as a LAMB (a sacrificial LAMB)
that takes away their sins. When Hebrews states clearly that the blood of LAMBS cannot take
away sins:

Hebrews 10:
4 For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins.

While Christ is the Lamb of God, and while he did in fact "take away the sins of the world," it
does not mean that he took away the sins of the world by "being a Lamb" and dying! For it is
by his RESURRECTION that our sins are taken away (and he that has no resurrection is yet in his
sins according to 1 Corinthians).

So, it was by being a Lamb and being "led to the slaughter" that Christ was able to achieve
salvation because he RESURRECTED and then ascended to the Father and sprinkled his own
blood on the MERCY SEAT! Some liars teach that Christ had no blood left when he rose! Then
how would he ascend to the Father as our High Priest and "sprinkle his own blood" on the Mercy
Seat?

Hebrews 9:
7 But into the second went the high priest alone once every year, not without blood, which he
offered for himself, and for the errors of the people:

8 The Holy Ghost this signifying, that the way into the holiest of all was not yet made manifest,
while as the first tabernacle was yet standing:

9 Which was a figure for the time then present, in which were offered both gifts and sacrifices,
that could not make him that did the service perfect, as pertaining to the conscience;

10 Which stood only in meats and drinks, and divers washings, and carnal ordinances, imposed
on them until the time of reformation.

11 But Christ being come an high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect
tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building;

12 Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the
holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us.

13 For if the blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of an heifer sprinkling the unclean,
sanctifieth to the purifying of the flesh:

14 How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself
without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?

This is why you must believe, not just in the death of Christ, but in his resurrection to be saved.
(His life). Because it was only by the resurrection and his ascension to the father in FLESH to
sprinkle his blood on the mercy seat that we have a propitiation. For it is not the ANIMAL that
makes the propitiation (through his death) but it is by the HIGH PRIEST who takes the blood and
sprinkles it on the Mercy Seat that brings the propitiation.

I shall leave you with these thoughts...

Shalom and grace and mercy to you all...
