BEHOLD
THUS SAITH THE LORD:
It is fashionable in pentecostal circles to
teach “we are in the new covenant, we are under grace;” “we are not under the
old covenant under the law and judgment:” This, teaching the people that
“grace” is only a new testament phenomenon, and that the law and judgment of
the old covenant is done away with, thus having no room to embrace that it is
possible to “fail of the grace of God:” Heb 12/15; and if a man fail of the
“grace of God,” where does that place him? Doesn`t it place him back under
“wrath, judgment, the law?” John 3/36. It only takes one act of disobedience,
one heresy imbibed to place a man in this condition, just as it did with Adam
male and female in the garden! “A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump,” 1
Cor. 5/6, and again, Gal. 5/9. “Dead flies cause the ointment of the apothecary
to send forth a stinking savour: so doth a little folly him that is in
reputation for wisdom and honour.” Ecc. 10/1. IF YOU ARE UNDER GRACE, THEN YOU
EXPERIENCE A CONTINUAL MOVE OF HIS SPIRIT, (REVIVAL,) THE MOVE CANNOT BE
STOPPED BY ANY MAN…. SO WHY ARE SO MANY OF YOU BUSTING YOUR BOILERS TO TRY TO
GET “A BREAK THROUGH, THEN YOU TEACH THE PEOPLE THAT YOU ARE UNDER GRACE!!!
WHEN IN FACT YOU HAVE “FAILED OF THE GRACE OF GOD,” AND ARE ABIDING IN
WRATH???.....THEN PRETEND FROM THE PULPIT THAT YOUR PREACHING, TEACHING, MUSIC
IS ANOINTED, PREACHING A WORLDLY DOCTRINE OF POSITIVE THINKING, POSITIVE
CONFESSION???......WHAT A LOAD OF
The Greek word for grace in the new
testament you all know, but do you realize that it really means FAVOUR,
ACCEPTANCE: The Hebrew word for grace in the old testament means exactly the
same thing, KINDNESS, FAVOUR, ACCEPTANCE!!!
CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING:
“But Noah found grace in the eyes of the
Lord.” Gen 6/8.
BEHOLD THE GOODNESS OF GOD:
“And Joseph found grace in His sight,” Gen
39/4.
BEHOLD THE GOODNESS OF GOD:
“For thou hast found grace in my sight, and
I know thee by name.” Ex. 33/17.
BEHOLD THE GOODNESS OF GOD:
What about all the others, Abraham, Isaac,
Samuel, Samson, Deborah, Hannah, Solomon, Ezra, Nehemiah, Jeremiah, Isaiah,
Ezekiel, Micah, Joel, Amos, Hosea, Daniel, Jonah, Nahum, Ruth, Habakkuk,
etc….etc….etc….How could these have found “favour, acceptance,” in Loving
Father`s eyes……. THEY ARE UNDER THE OLD COVENANT!!!!!.... I THOUGHT,GRACE IS
ONLY A NEW COVENANT DISPENSATION,….. ISN`T IT????:……..

“But a certain fearful looking for of
judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries. He that
despised Moses` law died without mercy under two or three witnesses: Of how
much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden
under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant,
wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the

HOW COME THERE ARE SO MANY REFERENCES TO (
THERE ARE MANY MORE EXAMPLES THAN WHAT I HAVE PENNED HERE) THE LAW, JUDGEMENT,
WRATH, IN THE NEW TESTAMENT,……..I THOUGHT THAT WAS DONE AWAY WITH…..ONLY AN OLD
COVENANT DOCTRINE:…….
DO YOU NOT YET COMPREHEND, THAT “GOD
RESISTETH THE PROUD, (THE LAW, JUDGEMENT)……BUT GIVETH GRACE TO THE HUMBLE?”
(MERCY, FAITH)…….Jam. 4/6, and again 1 Pet. 5/5.
DO YOU NOT YET COMPREHEND, THAT “HE THAT BELIEVETH, (OBEYS)
NOT THE SON SHALL NOT SEE LIFE; BUT THE WRATH OF GOD ABIDETH ON HIM.” John 3/36.
DO YOU NOT YET COMPREHEND, THAT “BECAUSE OF
THESE THINGS COMETH THE WRATH OF GOD UPON THE CHILDREN OF DISOBEDIENCE.” Eph.
5/6, and again,
DO YOU NOT YET COMPREHEND, THAT IF YOU ARE
PREACHING, TEACHING, BELIEVING, ANY OF THE HERESIES NAMED BY THIS MINISTRY, AND
OTHERS IN THIS COUNTRY,……THAT YOU ARE NO LONGER UNDER GRACE!.......YOU ARE IN
DISOBEDIENCE!........ “AND THE WRATH OF GOD ABIDETH ON YOU”?
“WOE UNTO YOU, SCRIBES AND PHARISEES,
HYPOCRITES! FOR YE PAY TITHE OF MINT AND ANISE AND CUMMIN, AND HAVE OMITTED THE
WEIGHTIER MATTERS OF….THE LAW…..JUDGEMENT;…..MERCY;…..AND FAITH:…..THESE OUGHT
YE TO HAVE DONE, AND NOT TO LEAVE THE OTHER UNDONE.” Math. 23/23.
“BEHOLD THEREFORE THE GOODNESS AND SEVERITY
OF GOD: ON THEM WHICH FELL, SEVERITY; BUT TOWARD THEE, GOODNESS:….. IF THOU
CONTINUE IN HIS GOODNESS:…..OTHERWISE THOU ALSO SHALT BE CUT OFF.”
“For the Lord God is a sun and shield: the
Lord will give grace and glory: no good thing will He withhold from them that
walk uprightly.” Ps. 84/11.
“Surely He scorneth the scorners: but He
giveth grace unto the lowly.” Pro. 3/34, Ja. 4/6, 1 Pet. 5/5.
