Two dangerous doctrines are back of these lifestyles. The first is the doctrine of eternal security and “cheap grace” which says no matter what you do or how you live after salvation, nothing is imputed to you. In other words, “sin as much as you can because grace covers them “. This of course is a lie from the pit of hell. Grace may be free but it is certainly not cheap, procured as it were with the very blood and esteem of the God-Man, Jesus Christ! The Second doctrine that has led many astray is the one which subtly enthrones self as Lord. This is at the heart of the pseudo-Kingdom gospel. With this doctrine, God in effect exists to service you – make you happy. The Holy Book encourages saints to seek joy, not happiness. Joy comes from the state of your relationship with God. Isaiah 12:3 says with joy, you shall draw from the wells of Salvation! Romans 14:17,18 says joy in the Holy Spirit(that which has no bearing with what happens on the outside but rather what happens in the inside) is one of the sure proofs of the Kingdom that is within you Luke 17:21.
