FREE GRACE THEOLOGY IS THE BIBLICAL TRUTH — PART II
What happened to the Galatians?
I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel:
—Galatians 1:6
O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth, crucified among you?
—Galatians 3:1
But now, after that ye have known God, or rather are known of God, how turn ye again to the weak and beggarly elements, whereunto ye desire again to be in bondage?
—Galatians 4:9
Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.
—Galatians 5:1
Ye did run well; who did hinder you that ye should not obey the truth?
—Galatians 5:7
It is clear that the Galatians stopped believing the gospel and fell into a works-based salvation. Notice in the above verses that Paul expresses how they fell from what was preached unto them before. In order to fall from something, you need to have been there to begin with! This proves that a 100% saved person can in fact reject the gospel because of the temptation of hereticks.
But notice how Paul referred to the Galatians in spite of them falling into unbelief...
For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.
—Galatians 3:26
Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are the children of promise.
—Galatians 4:28
So then, brethren, we are not children of the bondwoman, but of the free.
—Galatians 4:31
Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.
—Galatians 5:1
Despite the Galatians falling into unbelief, rejecting the one and only gospel that saves, Paul STILL called them brethren. Why? Because eternal life is given at ONE MOMENT OF BELIEF, and that belief can cease afterward in ANYONE if they do not continue in the word and refresh themselves in Bible knowledge.
Did you know that HERESY is a work of the flesh?
Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,
—Galatians 5:19-20
Notice also one of the fruits of the Spirit...
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
—Galatians 5:22
We understand that a saved person is not always going to walk in the Spirit, and if one of the works of the flesh is heresy, then a saved person is 100% able to fall into heresy and cease having faith. And we know that faith is what saves a person...
He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God; And being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform. And therefore it was imputed to him for righteousness.
—Romans 4:20-22
The conclusion is simple: A saved eternally secure person is able to cease from the faith that he once had which saved him.

FREE GRACE THEOLOGY IS THE BIBLICAL TRUTH — PART III
Free Grace — A saved person is 100% eternally secure, but is able to later reject Jesus Christ and stop believing in him.
What is the purpose of 2 Peter?
5 And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge;
6 And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness;
7 And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity.
8 For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
9 But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.
—2 Peter 1:5-9
If a saved person is supposedly always going to continue believing the gospel of Jesus Christ, why is Peter warning the readers about the possibility of forgetting? Because a saved eternally secure person is at the threat of losing that saving faith if he is not exercising these things written here in verses 5-7.
10 Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall:
11 For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
—2 Peter 1:10-11
Why again is Peter warning about the possibility of a saved eternally secure saint to fall away? BECAUSE IT IS POSSIBLE even though he is still saved.
Furthermore, have you ever asked yourself why Peter in chapter 1 warns about the possibility of falling from the gospel and exhorting the readers to continue in it, to afterward in chapter 2 proceed to warn about false prophets and reprobates?
1 But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.
2 And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.
3 And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.
—2 Peter 2:1-3
Why would Peter warn about something that can't happen? The conclusion simple: If a saved person does not add to his faith (chapter 1) he is vulnerable to the influence of false teachers (chapter 2).
And look what we see at the end of the epistle...
Ye therefore, beloved, seeing ye know these things before, beware lest ye also, being led away with the error of the wicked, fall from your own stedfastness.
—2 Peter 3:17
The purpose of 2 Peter is to warn the brethren of the dangers of not adding to our faith.

FREE GRACE THEOLOGY IS THE BIBLICAL TRUTH — PART IV
Free Grace — A saved person is 100% eternally secure, but is able to later reject Jesus Christ and stop believing in him.
King Solomon fell away at the end of his life due to his many wives and concubines from different nations and customs.
1 But king Solomon loved many strange women, together with the daughter of Pharaoh, women of the Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites, Zidonians, and Hittites;
2 Of the nations concerning which the LORD said unto the children of Israel, Ye shall not go in to them, neither shall they come in unto you: for surely they will turn away your heart after their gods: Solomon clave unto these in love.
3 And he had seven hundred wives, princesses, and three hundred concubines: and his wives turned away his heart.
4 For it came to pass, when Solomon was old, that his wives turned away his heart after other gods: and his heart was not perfect with the LORD his God, as was the heart of David his father.
5 For Solomon went after Ashtoreth the goddess of the Zidonians, and after Milcom the abomination of the Ammonites.
6 And Solomon did evil in the sight of the LORD, and went not fully after the LORD, as did David his father.
7 Then did Solomon build an high place for Chemosh, the abomination of Moab, in the hill that is before Jerusalem, and for Molech, the abomination of the children of Ammon.
8 And likewise did he for all his strange wives, which burnt incense and sacrificed unto their gods.
9 And the LORD was angry with Solomon, because his heart was turned from the LORD God of Israel, which had appeared unto him twice,
10 And had commanded him concerning this thing, that he should not go after other gods: but he kept not that which the LORD commanded.
—1 Kings 11:1-10
You may have heard certain critics of Free Grace say that Solomon did not fully apostatize, but rather did so partly. They bring attention to this verse...
And Solomon did evil in the sight of the LORD, and went not fully after the LORD, as did David his father.
—1 Kings 11:6
...and they argue that because it says "went not fully" that it means that Solomon still believed in the one true God while he was sacrificing to and going after false gods. This argument is incorrect for a few reasons...
Firstly, ask yourself this: Would you say that a person must partly believe the gospel to be saved, or fully? Fully, of course. A person must trust only in the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ in order to be saved. This makes it clear that Solomon did in fact go astray by a margin that would be considered apostacy.
Secondly, notice again verse 6...
And Solomon did evil in the sight of the LORD, and went not fully after the LORD, as did David his father.
—1 Kings 11:6
This verse is speaking about David who died prior, which implies that it is referring to his life as a whole rather than one particular instance. So to be consistent across the text I believe that it is most logical to conclude that "went not fully" in verse 6 is referring to Solomon's life as a whole, not the exact thing he's doing at this moment in the text. Indeed it would be strange to assume that Solomon still trusted in the coming Redeemer while he was sacrificing to and going after false gods who are in fact devils. Solomon joined other religions!
So what can we conclude here? It is entirely possible for an eternally secure person to apostatize from Christ and join another religion, despite his state as a saved person.

FREE GRACE THEOLOGY IS THE BIBLICAL TRUTH — PART VI
Free Grace — A saved person is 100% eternally secure, but is able to later reject Jesus Christ and stop believing in him.
The Parable of The Sower in Luke 8 proves Free Grace.
11 Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.
12 Those by the way side are they that hear; then cometh the devil, and taketh away the word out of their hearts, lest they should believe and be saved.
13 They on the rock are they, which, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, which for a while believe, and in time of temptation fall away.
14 And that which fell among thorns are they, which, when they have heard, go forth, and are choked with cares and riches and pleasures of this life, and bring no fruit to perfection.
15 But that on the good ground are they, which in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, keep it, and bring forth fruit with patience.
—Luke 8:11-15
Right here we have 100% proof that a person can believe temporarily, and later stop believing. And what is the single most important thing that we have learned about Jesus Christ?
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.
—John 6:47
Eternal life is given at the very moment of belief. So even those on the rock who temporarily believed ARE STILL SAVED despite ceasing to believe afterward.
Furthermore, notice again verse 13 of Luke 8...
They on the rock are they, which, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, which for a while believe, and in time of temptation fall away.
—Luke 8:13
Those who stopped believing did so because of temptation. Reading the parallel verses we find something interesting...
Yet hath he not root in himself, but dureth for a while: for when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, by and by he is offended.
—Matthew 13:21
And have no root in themselves, and so endure but for a time: afterward, when affliction or persecution ariseth for the word's sake, immediately they are offended.
—Mark 4:17
What was the temptation that caused them to stop believing? It was tribulation and persecution. If this tribulation/persecution directly causes people to stop believing in the gospel, then a good example of this are the gospel-denying hereticks who make videos online in attempt to bring people away from the true gospel unto another gospel. Why warn about tribulation/persecution if a saved person doesn't have the ability to fall away from the faith and join another religion? Even though a saved person will always be saved no matter what, apostacy is a real threat to a Christian's relationship with God on this earth.
