The Truth About Grace




It is true that grace cannot be withheld from man or be mixed with the law of works;but this does not prove that there are no conditions men must meet in order to get the benefits of grace .




Not one scripture teaches unconditional grace or that God gives grace to men who disobey the gospel. 

If so ,then God is under obligation to save all,even sinners who disobey if he saves even one.


God is under obligation to saints, only when they walk in the light and remain true to the gospel.


He is not obligated to sinners until they come to full obedience of the gospel.
