Explaining the simplicity of the Free Gift Gospel of Christ

Now, let me say right up front that I know without a shadow of a doubt that the free gift of eternal life (that the Lord gives to all who truly believe the gospel of Christ) is absolutely, 100%, totally free! It’s free! free! free! Romans 6.23 the wages (or consequences) of sin is death…however, the gift of eternal life IS FREE!  FREE means that a saved person’s eternal salvation is NOT determined  or maintained by how ‘well’ that person ‘behaves’ (after they get saved!) And since a person’s eternal salvation IS FREE…it won’t fade away because they’re not living up to a certain moral standard!  Yeshua Christ’s promise of a Free Gift of eternal life DIDN’T come with the stipulation that a person’s must strive to stop sinning OR make Christ the Lord of their life in order to BE or GET or STAY saved! Truly saved people received the Gift of eternal life the NANO-SECOND they believed the Gospel! 

The FREE GIFT of eternal life is NOT ‘doled out’ AFTER a born-again person spends a few years on the mission field, or after spending 6 months in a discipleship class or after attending Seminary school!  And I know that the Bible teaches that a person’s eternal salvation is NOT determined by HOW WELL they ‘behave’ because then a person would be saved by faith in Christ PLUS good works…which is contrary to what the Scriptures teach! Now, since salvation is a free gift that the Lord (freely offered to all who believe the Free Gift Gospel of Christ)…that means that no one receives OR KEEPS their free gift of eternal salvation ‘persevered’ by faith in Christ plus maintaining a righteous walk! Those who believe they need to ‘maintain’ a righteous walk of holiness (in order to keep them self saved), are basically (and foolishly) believing that they need to ‘help’ Christ with their salvation process! Since the Bible is crystal clear that FREE GIFT of eternal salvation comes thru faith in Christ plus nothing…you need to answer this question! How would a Believer ‘lose’ or ‘forfeit’ their eternal salvation for being bad….when they never received their free gift of salvation for being good in the first place! How can a Believer lose what they never deserved to begin with?

Brethren, there are a lot of Believers in the Church who sincerely but foolishly believe that if a true, blood-bought, eternally saved child of God is not maintaining a certain standard of morality or decency or obedience…they will lose their salvation! Again I ask! How can a Believer lose (for being bad) something that they didn’t (initially) get in the first place for being good? In fact…IF you believe that a saved person can forfeit or ‘lose’ their eternal salvation if they die living a carnal life…you’re most likely not saved yourself because you are believing in a ‘good works’ plus Christ Gospel! (Which is a false Gospel!)  Again…is the free gift of eternal life really free…or does a Believer have to maintain a certain walk to keep it? Is it possible for the FREE GIFT of eternal life to be both FREE and NOT free at the same time? NO! When a person thinks that they need to ‘help’ Christ keep them saved thru righteous or holy living…their ‘saving faith’ is not in Christ alone. And no one is eternally saved unless their faith is in Christ alone!  Behold I, Paul, say to you that if any Believer receives circumcision, (believing that it will help saved them) Christ will be of no benefit to you (i.e. you’re no longer saved!) ​And I testify again to every person who receives circumcision (believing that it will help saved them), is under obligation to keep the whole Law. Anyone you believes they need to DO STUFF (plus believe in the Free Gift Gospel of Christ) (in order to maintain their salvation) have been severed (i.e. CUT OFF) from (salvation thru) Christ! ANY of you who are seeking to be justified by law (i.e. good works); you have fallen from saving grace (i.e. you who choose to do that are no longer saved.)
