The misnomer, and it is a major misnomer, is that GES is the voice of the Free Grace movement in general. <BR/><BR/>The GES has in fact become a shrinking cell of extremists that have fallen into the trap of Zane Hodges’ “<I>Crossless</I>” interpretation of the Gospel. This “contrary doctrine” of Hodges and Bob Wilkins’s “<I>Crossless/Deityless</I>” interpretation of the Gospel has been the cause of “<I>division and offences</I>” in the FG camp and churches. (<B>Rom. 16:17-18</B>).<BR/><BR/>The teachings of Hodges is what has come to be known and accurately defined as the <B>“<I>Crossless Gospel,” “ReDefined Free Grace Theology</I>” and the “<I>Promise Only Gospel</I>.”</B> It is largely because of GES’s heretical views of the Gospel; many men in the Free Grace community have separated from GES and do not want their name or ministry to be identified with the GES. <BR/><BR/>The Free Grace Alliance (FGA) was formed in part to become and is the new home of many men who have departed GES over the egregious errors coming from Hodges and Wilkin.<BR/><BR/>Exposure of the egregious errors of Hodges, Wilkin, Neimela, Myers, and lesser knowns like Antonio da Rosa has put GES in cardiac arrest. It is my hope and prayer the GES is soon to become totally isolated and outside any relevant discussion of the Gospel. May I share this article with your guests, <A HREF="http://indefenseofthegospel.blogspot.com/2008/05/is-re-defined-free-grace-theology-free.html" REL="nofollow">Is “<I><B>ReDefined” Free Grace Theology- Free Grace Theology?</B></I></A><BR/><BR/>The article will help them understand that Hodges & Wilkin do not speak for and do NOT represent the general population of men who identify themselves as members of the so-called Free Grace community. <BR/><BR/>The Free Grace community has been fractured, and it is a good fracture in that large numbers of FG men have withdrawn from GES over the Hodges/Wilkin “<I>Crossless</I>” interpretation of the Gospel.<BR/><BR/>Lord willing not one more unsuspecting believer will fall into the trap of the <I>Crossless</I> gospel.<BR/><BR/><BR/>LMLou Martuneachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08683967904677815711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34749839.post-86542511464607717812007-03-07T08:05:00.000-05:002007-03-07T08:05:00.000-05:00Please do.
