The Doctrine of Antinomianism Attempts to Turn Heaven into Hell!
The idea that a person can get saved and never get sanctified and regenerated is so blasphemous. No truly saved person can ever buy that even for a second. How can you be saved and stay the same? The answer is it's just impossible. The reason is because 1 Corinthians 6:11 says the wonderful truth of not just justification but also sanctification. Romans 3:31 says that faith doesn't make the Law void but rather it fulfills the Law. Ephesians 2:10 has every Christian ordained into good works. Titus 2:11-14 has it that God's grace teaches righteous living. How can that even hint for even one second that a person can get saved and remain the same?
The problem today is that Antinomians may pretend not to be Antinomians but their doctrine teaches otherwise. The backdoor approach of Antinomianism is that they may put a cover that they're supposedly against sin but they teach that a Christian may get saved and still remain to sin. Again, let me ask them where do they get that from the Bible? While good works don't contribute to getting saved or staying saved but they come out as a result of getting saved. In their teaching that you can get saved and never change they're catering to false conversions. Nobody can get saved and stay the same. Just realizing your own sinfulness and God's graciousness is life changing!
Again, can a Christian be carnal? For a time it's true that they can be carnal but not indefinitely. The term "carnal Christianity" is an oxymoron because Christianity is against carnality. A Christian hasn't reached perfection yet but one can see that Christians aren't happy in their sins. How can a Christian be happy in their sin if they're already saved? The answer is it's just impossible. Hebrews 12:5-7 has God chastising the Christian. God chastises sin but He's also gracious to provide the power to live righteously. No Christian can live sinfully because sanctification is also by the grace of God.
What I really hate about Antinomianism is that they tend to show a God that winks at the sins of the sinner or that He leaves sinners the way they are. When Christians are saved, it's never been that you're saved and you're on your own. John 15:1-8 teaches that you need to abide in Christ to be fruitful. To try to do God's will on your own is foolishness. Since a Christian is saved then it makes them abide in Christ. Authentic faith is like a rough diamond and dug out gold. It's not yet pure but it's subject to purification. True gold and true diamonds survive the purifying process and fake ones don't. That's what differentiates the truly saved from those who aren't (1 John 2:19).
