My pastor recently did a study regarding grace. So this is all fresh on my mind.
Many think the bad things that are happening are a result of some kind of divine discipline, a la The 5th Cycle of Discipline that Israel faced.
But we are NOT under the law. (Praise God!) We are under the grace of our Father.
So once again, sadly, Pat Robertson and other legalists don’t get it.
Yet another episode of him dragging God’s name through the mud–Oral Roberts did it too. Sadly, so many on the ‘fringes’ of Xianity think these guys do/did speak for God.
