In the following video Evangelist Robert Breaker gives a whiteboard presentation on the numerous events that are converging on this month of September!
This amazing video provides a warning to non-believers that their chance to be saved is fleeing away. To the believer in Christ Bro. Breaker gives an encouragement to finish the race strong for the Lord's return surely draws nigh.
I hope you will watch this video and I trust that it stirs your heart as much as it did mine. If you are not saved I implore you to trust in the shed blood of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sin and the reception of eternal life!
Robert Morris is the pastor of the third largest church in America. Gateway Church is located in Southlake, Texas and boasts an active membership of 36,000 members. Millions of people follow Morris on YouTube and via Gateway's media ministries. But Robert Morris is dead wrong on the doctrine of salvation. Morris teaches a works based version of salvation called "Lordship Salvation".
Listen to the video above and Robert Morris saying from the pulpit that salvation is a free gift...but there's a catch...total commitment.. Morris is guilty of front loading the gospel. He adds a requirement to the truly free offer of salvation and that is the total surrender of our life to God.
It is amazing that 36,000 people could be so duped to fall for a false gospel but it is happening all over the world! When the jailer in the book of Philippians asked Paul what he needed to do to be saved Paul answered by telling him to believe on the Lord Jesus Christ. Paul consistently presents belief as the sole response of any sinner who would seek Heaven and forgiveness.
There is nothing we can do that is acceptable to God when it comes to being saved...nothing. Surrender, devotion, good works all come in to play later in the Christian life. Even then, these works cannot be used as a backload to salvation. In other words, even good works in the Christian life are not proof of our salvation.
It is ironic that Pastor Morris in this video references Matthew 7:22-23. These verses actually describe people who think their supposed "total commitment" should get them into Heaven!
My hope and my assurance are based on Christ's salvific work on the cross and His imputed righteousness.
All my works, if they are presented to God for merit, are as filthy rags! Any attempt to "totally surrender" to God as a means to be saved or to demonstrate that I am saved are an affront to a Holy God. If you think that your works are in any way a piece of the salvation puzzle then you are lost and need to be saved...now.
To my knowledge there has only been one man who was totally committed to the Father and that was the Lord Jesus Christ!
Paul said that in the last days there would be a great falling away. I believe that falling away is happening in the church and is well underway. It is very difficult to find pastors who present an accurate version of God's way to Heaven. Most pulpits are presenting some form of works enhanced soteriology.
We need to call these teachings what they really are...heresy. Here is a definition of heresy "belief or opinion contrary to orthodox religious (especially Christian) doctrine". Adding works in any shape destroys grace.
No doubt there will be thousands who will continue to defend this man's ministry. However, false teaching is false teaching. Robert Morris "there is no catch"!
Are you uncertain of your eternal destination? Do you need the full and unconditional forgiveness of Almighty God? Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and be saved today!.
