Are All Who Identify as Free Grace Cessationists?

July 5, 2022 by Bob Wilkin in Blog - Cessationism, charismatic, pentecostal
The following question was put on the GES Facebook page in light of a recent post there: “Are all who identify as Free Grace cessationists?” That is a great question. Cessationism is the view that the sign gifts ceased in the first century during the lifetimes of the apostles. Tongues, interpretation of tongues, prophecy, and

Can You Lose Your Salvation If You Keep Sinning?

July 1, 2022 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - charismatic, Eternal Security, pentecostal
I remember the day I left my first church. I was around 18 years old and had been a Christian for less than a year when I started attending my friend’s charismatic church. I was brand new to Christianity and didn’t know about different types of Christians, but I loved the worship there. Eventually, I

Is Restitution a Condition of Salvation?

December 25, 2020 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - pentecostal, restitution
How many conditions of salvation are there? Is making restitution one of them? It is, according to this Pentecostal statement of faith: CONDITIONS FOR SALVATION Even though Christ made atonement for the sins of the world, reaping the benefits is on condition.

When Were the Disciples Born Again? A Pentecostal’s Confusing Answer

November 2, 2020 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - Born Again, John, New covenant, pentecostal
Howard M. Ervin (1915-2009) was a longstanding faculty member at Oral Roberts University (in fact, the second longest-serving faculty member). I have to imagine that his theology impacted generations of ORU pastors, so his views on salvation are worth looking into. For example, in his book, Spirit Baptism: A Biblical Investigation, Ervin asks when the

Charles Parham and Agnes Ozman on Speaking in Tongues and Missions

January 1, 2020 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - Charles Parham, pentecostal, Pentecostalism, tongues
I came across an interesting admission in a footnote in a book about Pentecostalism, missions, and speaking in tongues. The Topeka Outpouring of 1901, a book edited by Larry E. Martin, gives the reader a documentary history of the beginning of the Pentecostal movement. Long story short, in 1900, a man named Charles Parham opened

Is Free Grace Universalist?

March 27, 2018 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - Faith, kowalowski, pentecostal, Sandeman, Works
A Grace in Focus reader alerted us to the following bad quote. It comes from an Assemblies of God pastor named David Kowalowski. He wrote it for a website called www.apologeticsindex.org. As a Pentecostal, his main concern seems to be the hyper-grace movement. But along the way, he says this about Free Grace Theology: “Though
