Saving Faith is a Grace Gift
Only God’s elect will ever believe - belief is a grace gift from God. Man does not generate saving faith from the condition of total depravity in which he was born – that’s impossible.
What’s Fair?
We all end up in Hell that’s fair, according to God’s justice. End of discussion. The book is closed on the subject; yet, man, in his satanic arrogance, wishes to impose his own version/definition of “fairness” on God (he wills to put God on trial, as if man were sovereign).

Jn 10:3b-4
The sheep hear his voice, and he calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. When he has brought out all his own, he goes before them, and the sheep follow him, for they know his voice.

Do you think there’s a direct relationship between our respect for God’s glory and our Gospel?
The Satanic Way
The easiest, arguably the most popular, way of twisting the Word of God is to take it out of context. (e.g. Mt 4:1-11)
God’s Will Isn’t Up for Debate
Satanic temptation begs us to challenge God at His Word, enticing us to find “loopholes” in the Bible in order to “lawyer” our way into or out of the demands of our fleshly will. If we give in to this temptation, we are flagrantly disrespecting God, taking pot shots at His glory.

Psa 8:4
what is man that you are mindful of him, and the son of man that you care for him?
Know Your Place
God is holy…we are sinners.
God is sovereign…we are slaves.
God is glorious…we are nothing without Christ.
To God Be the Glory
To slight God’s glory is to slight one’s own sanctification, for you cannot be sanctified in the absence of respect for His glory. (Ps 24:7-10; 1Co 2:8; 1Pe 4:14; 2Pe 1:17)
Synthesize
Lk 18:27 But he said, “What is impossible with man is possible with God.” - Jesus
Psa 8:4 what is man that you are mindful of him, and the son of man that you care for him? - David
The Root Cause of a False Gospel
Man has a terrible, though predictable, habit of stealing God’s glory for himself - STARTING with the Gospel!
2Ti 1:9
Who saved us and called us to a holy calling, not because of our works but because of his own purpose and grace, which he gave us in Christ Jesus before the ages began.
