By Silvanus, our faithful brother as I consider him, I have written to you briefly, exhorting and testifying that this is the true grace of God in which you stand.

I Peter 5:12

Incredible as it may seem, there are people who deceive others with false grace. Someone’s charisma, a preacher’s suffering countenance or any other device employed to do the work cannot suppress the operation of God’s grace. A deceiver does not always act with intent, but because he does not know the truth he gets carried away by situations or makes statements that do not come from the Lord.

Everything that goes against the divine will has its origin in the devil. Nothing can be preached, taught or considered to proceed from God if not in accordance with the Bible. Besides, no one is authorized to change or distort what the Holy Book says. So, be careful! After all, in a time of crisis and if you do not know what to do, you may be forced to come up with something in order to help someone.

The Lord did not give anyone the prerogative to alter His grace. In my childhood, in the church I belonged to, I heard people fight the miraculous ministry of Jesus by saying that the days of miracles were gone. They had certainly not heard it from God, but probably the reason why they said such a thing was motivated by the jealousy they had of the ones the Lord answered with miracles.

It was Christ who brought us grace and truth. For theologians, grace is an undeserved favor, which I agree at. But I go even further because I consider it to be God’s action on behalf of mankind. Through His work He forgives, heals, delivers and performs other wonders in favor of those who believe in His Word. Now who can declare that this grace is no longer in action if the Bible does not say so?

A doctrine can be good, comforting and can even help someone in need, but if it is not according to the Scriptures it is garbage of the worst kind. In order for you not to be included in the list of rebels, never accept or tolerate the falsification of God’s grace. The Word must not and need not be improved and there will be punishment for those who add or take something from it.

Grace is revealed in God’s Word. It is the existing foundation and those who hold fast to it will never be shaken by the onslaughts of the enemy. Strive to be firm in the truth because otherwise you will not be able to resist the attacks of hell. By believing in God’s promises, grace – the power of the Most High – acts on your behalf.

Flee from those who try to counterfeit the divine grace because they do not deserve any credit. What Christ and the apostles taught is the true grace of God through which He heals all diseases, undoes evil works and baptizes in the Holy Spirit. Whatever differs from that is counterfeit.

In Christ with love,
