LOOKING TO PRAISE AND WORSHIP JESUS THE CHRIST, THE SON OF THE LIVING GOD. 18 No man has ever seen God at any time; the only unique Son, or the only begotten God, Who is in the bosom [in the intimate presence] of the Father, He has declared Him [He has revealed Him and brought Him out where He can be seen; He has interpreted Him and He has made Him known].

Consistent Free Grace

I've seen a lot of that term over the past year.

I wonder about some things...

Those who declare themselves such also claim that their system is the only system that allows people to view all of scripture at face value.

I see an inevitable contradiction here. Doesn't the term "Consistent Free Grace" suggest that a system is employed, and that all of scripture is then viewed through a lens?

The ONLY thing consistent about the GES's REDEFINED Free Grace Theology is that it is consistently wrong.

See The "Crossless" Gospel (is) Consistently ReDefined!

What is done to Romans 10:9 in their system brings to focus their whole way of doing theology. It must all go through a grid.

I don't doubt that their theology is as consistent as humanly possible.

It isn't like other religious systems lack consistency - Catholicism, Mormonism, Jehovah's Witnesses, Islam, Buddhism, Animism etc. All of these are consistent with the premises they are built upon.

The problem with free grace theology is that its foundation is all messed up.

A lens does not necessarily distort what is viewed.

But some lens do.
