They deny Jesus Christ and change the grace of God into dissolution
The Word of God denounces those who deny the Lord Jesus Christ as Almighty God and those who change the grace of God into dissolution, that is to say those who distort the meaning of the grace of God that is offered to us by making her something that allows one to live in sin. These are people who call themselves Christians and who use the word "grace" to mean that we will be saved even if we are sinners since Jesus paid the price on the cross for our sins. What these people don't understand is what the grace of God really is.
“My beloved, as I eagerly desired to write to you about our common salvation, I have found it necessary to do so to exhort you to fight for the faith which has been handed down once and for all to the saints. certain men have slipped among you, whose condemnation has long been written, ungodly, who change the grace of our God into dissolution, and who deny the only Master Jesus Christ our God and Lord. " (Jude 1: 3-4)
The grace of God is the fact that God came in the flesh, in order to show us the Example to follow and in order to shed his blood so that we can be reconciled with God. He ascended into the Holy of Holies and he offered his blood in sacrifice in order to appease Divine Anger against man and to satisfy Divine Justice. By his blood which he shed as a man he bought the Holy Spirit for men, so by faith in Jesus Christ all men have the power to receive this Spirit and to become children of God through it. sanctification and the new birth. This Spirit is therefore THE GIFT that God gives us BY HIS GRACE so that THROUGH HIM we can walk in SANCTIFICATION. The grace of God is therefore not to be able to walk in sin thanks to the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, but on the contrary to be able to walk in HOLINESS thanks to the sacrifice of Jesus Christ (Romans 6).
We therefore understand that the grace of God is the very opposite of what those preaching who change it into dissolution. The Word of God emphasizes these two points because they are of great importance. Indeed, if we do not recognize Jesus Christ as what he is, that is to say as our God and Father Almighty, the One and only Master and Savior, and if we do not believe that he can make us holy and therefore do not live in sanctification without which no one will see the Lord, we cannot be saved. We are saved by grace, by means of faith, by recognizing Jesus Christ as Yahweh who came in the flesh to save us, and by living in sanctification to be prepared for the Kingdom of God.
"And without a doubt, the mystery of godliness is great: God was manifested in the flesh, justified by the Spirit, seen by angels, preached to the Gentiles, believed in the world, and lifted up in glory." (1 Timothy 3:16)
"So he said to them: You are from below, but I, I AM from above. You are from this world, but I, I am not from this world. That is why I told you that you die in your sins; for if you do not believe that I AM, you will die in your sins. " (John 8: 23-24)
"" Seek peace with all, and sanctification, without which no one will see the Lord. "(Hebrews 12:14)
