Author: Jason Moore
Published: 2020

“Beautiful,” and “Broken,” are not words that naturally go together. We are all broken in some way, yet in the eyes of Jesus we are His masterpiece, a trophy of grace. With all our ideas of beauty, God personally expands us to show us His infinite beauty.

Have you ever looked at you life as a mosaic? Something that once was whole, but now is broken? Jesus can take our broken pieces and personally arrange them into a new design. Your life is not falling apart, it is being remade into something exquisite.

In our broken places of failure and struggle the beauty of grace works in personal transformation. Nothing is wasted, everything has purpose as we yield it all to Jesus.

We will discover in this book our hidden beauty and that we are Deeply Seen, Fully Known and Completely Loved by the One who knows us best.

Free Grace Theology 5 Ways It Magnifies the Gospel https://www.freegracealliance.com/2023/02/25/free-grace-theology-5-ways-it-magnifies-the-gospel/ https://www.freegracealliance.com/2023/02/25/free-grace-theology-5-ways-it-magnifies-the-gospel/#respond Sat, 25 Feb 2023 23:33:34 +0000 https://www.freegracealliance.com/?p=1434 Free Grace Theology 5 Ways It Magnifies the Gospel

Authors: Grant Hawley, Charles Bing, Joseph Dillow, Jeremy Edmondson, Roger Fankhauser
Published: 2021

Free Grace Theology: 5 Ways It Magnifies the Gospel sets out to demonstrate that this is not only biblical, but that it magnifies the gospel, giving glory to God. This is shown through five articles by leaders within the Free Grace movement, each article presents a distinct way that Free Grace theology magnifies the gospel.

In contrast to each of the five chapters in Dr. Wayne Grudem’s “Free Grace” Theology: 5 Ways It Diminishes the Gospel, the authors of this book show that Free Grace theology magnifies the gospel because:

  • Free Grace is returning to Scripture as our sole authority
  • Free Grace teaches us to turn from sins
  • Full assurance produces godly living
  • Free Grace exalts Christ and His work
  • Free Grace interpretations have great explanatory power

A Free Grace Primer https://www.freegracealliance.com/2023/02/23/a-free-grace-primer/ https://www.freegracealliance.com/2023/02/23/a-free-grace-primer/#respond Thu, 23 Feb 2023 00:12:46 +0000 https://www.freegracealliance.com/?p=1704 A Free Grace Primer

Author: Zane Hodges
Published: 2011

The Hungry InheritThe Gospel Under Siege, and Grace in Eclipse set multitudes free. These books were a match that lit a blaze that still burns brightly years after the author has gone to be with the Lord. These three books are combined under one cover. 

A Free Grace Primer promises to capture the attention of a whole new generation. This work answers the questions: How can I be sure I have everlasting life that can never be lost? What is the relationship between faith and works? How should I evangelize and disciple people? What can I do to gain the Lord’s approval?

A Free Grace Primer makes the Biblical messages of life and of life more abundantly clear and easy to distinguish. These are messages that are much needed given the legalism that pervades Evangelicalism today.

– Back Cover Excerpt

The Hungry Inherit: Explains the distinction between inheriting riches in the life to come and receiving everlasting life. The latter is a free gift received by faith alone. The former is a reward for work done. Thus those who are hungry to please the Lord Jesus Christ and to have His approval will inherit a life of richer service for Him in the Kingdom to come.

The Gospel Under Siege: The message of life which Jesus and His apostles preached is under attack by theologians today. No longer is justification by faith alone truly by faith alone. Theologians go to great lengths to define faith in such a was as to introduce commitment and obedience and perseverance as conditions for everlasting life.

Grace in Eclipse: Deals with the widespread failure in Evangelical circles to understand passages dealing with rewards and champions the power and majesty of the doctrine of eternal rewards.

The Nature of Faith in the New Testament-An Exegetical and Theological Analysis on the Nature of New Testament Faith

Authors: Fred Chay & John P. Correia
Published: 2012

There is no more important issue in theological study than the meaning of faith in the New Testament. The perennial problem of the misunderstanding concerning the nature of faith has produced a variety of theological errors as well as pastoral problems for the church.

In a day of rampant theological confusion concerning justification by faith the nature of faith is paramount. This book provides a penetrating examination through exegetical precision, concerning the nature of faith. For those who believe in “faith alone in Christ alone” this book will guide you into an understanding of what faith is and what it is not. This is a book that needed to be written and a book that must be read
–Earl Radmacher, ThD, President Emeritus, Western Seminary

Author: Dave Anderson
Published: 2022

“With outstanding scholarship and insightful exegetical and theological reflection, Dr. Anderson shows that God’s way of relating to children has always been in terms of relationship and fellowship.

Our relationship with God can never be lost but our fellowship varies with our faith and obedience. He demonstrates that the Abrahamic and Mosaic covenants are paralleled by other Ancient Near Eastern covenants between the monarch and his servants. Abraham began an eternal relationship with God in the Abrahamic Covenant. However, in the Mosaic Covenant He provided the conditions for fellowship with God for those who are in relationship with Him, that is, are saved. The implications on our daily walk with Christ are significant.”
– Dr. Joseph Dillow (President Emeritus of BEE World & author of Final Destiny)

Free Grace Soteriology https://www.freegracealliance.com/2023/02/08/free-grace-soteriology/ https://www.freegracealliance.com/2023/02/08/free-grace-soteriology/#respond Wed, 08 Feb 2023 15:58:17 +0000 https://www.freegracealliance.com/?p=1506 Free Grace Soteriology

Author: Dave Anderson
Published: 2019

While nearly all branches of Christianity would lay claim to GRACE as the primary foundation for our future in heaven, there is wide divergence of opinion on just what that means. The understanding of GRACE among different factions within Christianity depends heavily on one’s understanding of justification, regeneration, sanctification, repentance, faith, and other biblical topics presented in this textbook.

The author holds that GRACE is free, not in the sense of being cheap or easy, but as a free gift (Eph 2:9) with no strings attached, in contrast to Arminian or Calvinistic soteriology which add requirements on the “front end” or “back end” of salvation. The Free Grace position is a biblical alternative to these systems of soteriology and is presented as a corollary of dispensationalism, affirming that God’s “so great salvation” is absolutely free.

Author: Fred Chay
Published: 2017

Today there are many theological issues and arguments concerning a variety of significant theological topics. However, the topic of, and biblical evidence for, soteriology is perhaps the most important issue of the day or for any day. Although evangelicals do agree salvation is by grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone, they do not always agree on some of the implications and consequences. 

A Defense of Free Grace Theology is a rejoinder to Dr. Wayne Grudem’s critique of Free Grace Theology and a response to other Reformed theologians’ articulations and conclusions. The contributors to this book seek to biblically describe and defend a true Grace Theology and answer the deficiencies and criticisms that have been expressed.

Authors: J.B. Hixson, Rick Whitmire, Roy Zuck
Published: 2014

For centuries people have enjoyed singing about the “amazing grace” of God. Discover in the book why God’s grace is so amazing . . . and free! Grace is what distinguishes authentic biblical Christianity from every world religion. Grace is free to the recipient but costly to the Giver. It changes lives and eternal destinies. It characterizes the Giver as “the God of all grace.” Theology itself, therefore, must be absorbed with God’s grace. Freely by His Grace provides a thoroughly biblical approach to theology, demonstrating how God’s grace remains consistently “free” in such relevant areas as:

  • Free Grace theology
  • Grace
  • the Gospel
  • Lordship Salvation
  • Discipleship
  • Faith
  • Repentance
  • Regeneration
  • Eternal Security
  • Assurance
  • Sin
  • Sanctification
  • Rewards
  • Dispensationalism
  • Missions
  • Evangelism
  • Disciple making
