No, it isn't. I wish it were!This is verbatim what Bob Enyart teaches - verbatim!
If that were true, he would not teach that we are graffed in to anything (Romans 11:21-22 KJV).Bob is as strong as anyone I've ever heard on the idea that you cannot under any circumstances lose your salvation.
You have a problem as being "cut off" was eternal in nature for those of Israel who rejected the Lord’s earthly ministry (John 15:6 KJV) and it would be the consequence for these Romans to whom Paul wrote the letter also UNLESS they continued in the goodness of God.Romans 11 does not teach that any member of the Body of Christ can be cut off. It's a warning that if God can stop Israel's program then He can stop the Gentile's program too. When God cut off Israel, He didn't cut off anyone who believed! He didn't cut off Paul or James or John or Peter or any other of the Twelve or any of their converts, all of whom were Jews and members of Israel when God cut Israel off. Why then would you presume that Romans 11 is talking about cutting off believers and take that as an excuse to create a doctrine that requires Paul to have preached two gospels, one in the book of Romans and another everywhere else I presume?!
The Romans had a standing in the olive tree by faith (Romans 11:20 KJV) and were resting in the law making their boast of God (Romans 2:17 KJV), but the tree was coming down (so to speak). Israel had fallen (Romans 11:11 KJV) and these Romans needed to continue in the goodness of God or they too would be cut off (Romans 11:21-22 KJV).
There was only one way for them to continue in the goodness of God and that was to be established into the Body of Christ by Paul's my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ according to the revelation of the mystery which was kept secret since the world began, but now (at that time) was made manifest (Romans 16:25-27 KJV). That's why Paul "longed to see" them (Romans 1:11 KJV). He was "ready to preach the gospel to you that are in Rome also" (Romans 1:15-17 KJV! And all through the Acts period, we see Paul gathering the remnant into the Body. That is the context of Romans 11 and the "grafted in". It has nothing to do with you, me or anyone else today in the dispensation of the grace of God (Ephesians 3:1-6 KJV)!
I'm familiar with what Bob teaches and I’ll use his and other religious men's wrong conclusions all day long to testify the gospel of the grace of God and make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery. I charge you, him and anyone else who is adding to the confounding, to teach no other doctrine (1 Timothy 1:3 KJV).There is an axe. Anyone familiar with Bob's teaching can see it plain as day.
