Hubby, who was a Catholic until he was born again, said that was one thing that always worried him, that God would withdraw His grace through sinning. When he accepted Christ into his life and discovered that God’s grace was always there and he didn’t have to fear going to hell because he sinned, it was a huge weight taken off this shoulders. Now he knows that when he sins, he can go to the Father and ask for forgiveness and he is restored. Grace doesn’t bop in and out.

The Bible says we will be judged for our deeds. The Portestants deny it. That's fine with me. But the fundamental message throughout the whoe Bible, Old or New Testament, is not a free ride, but repentance that's required for forgiveness. Not one time repentance, but repentance, period. Repentance is not just saying I am sorry.

Protestantism is a feel-good religon. Man-made, for and by men (and women of coruse). It is tailored to make everyone feel snug and safe no matter what they do. It appeals to our fallen nature. It is a deception, and the root of deception is known to all of us.
