Conditionalism is antichrist !3
Here again, another scripture passage that shows Gods Saving Mercy is applied to His Elect without them meeting any conditions and while they are walking contrary to God in rebellion
Isa 57:17-18
17 For the iniquity of his covetousness was I wroth, and smote him: I hid me, and was wroth, and he went on frowardly in the way of his heart.
18I have seen his ways, and will heal him: I will lead him also, and restore comforts unto him and to his mourners.
The word frowardly is the hebrew word showbab and means:
- backsliding, backturning, apostate, recusant, faithless
refusing to submit, comply,
But Gods Promise to them while in rebellion is that He will heal them ! This is the same word heal in Isa 53:5
5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
So His stripes, meaning His death heals our apostate, rebellion, our walking frowardly. The condition we met for the healing was our walking in rebellion and faithlessness !
Thank you for this timely study on Conditionalism is antichrist!
We see this false gospel of works preached everyday here by many antichrist ministers.
They emphatically state that Salvation is not of works, but yet insist that some condition on the sinner's part must be met such as: call upon the Lord, accept Him, receive Him, seek Him, obey His commands, come to God as a repentant sinner, or that they have placed their faith in Him, which is their own faith of the flesh (`iddah)!
All these conditions they have attached to becoming saved are an abomination to God Rom. 8:8; Is. 64:6
which proves them to be hypocritical liars, thus exposing themselves for the false ministers that they are 2 Cor. 11:13!
But those God Loved and were given Grace from Everlasting John 3:16; Eph. 1:4; 2 Tim. 1:9, He quickens them out of spiritual death to Life because they were already reconciled to Him Rom. 5:10 by their Surety Christ Jesus.
This is God's Promise to His Sheep whom Christ their Chief Shepherd died for John 10:11:
1 Pet. 2:24-25
24 Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed. 25 For ye were as sheep going astray; but are now returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls.
Thus He says to them Live Ezek. 16:6, and they shall indeed!
