Gene Cunningham presented “Election, Predestination, and the Plan of God: The Biblical Case Against Calvinism, Lordship Salvation, and Replacement Theology” at the annual conference in Prescott, Arizona, September 7th through 9th. Gene’s teaching refutes Calvinism (Romans 9), Lordship Salvation (Romans 10), and Replacement Theology (Romans 11).
“And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those
who are the called according to His purpose. For whom He foreknew, He also
predestined, to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the
firstborn among many brethren. Moreover whom He predestined, these He also called;
whom He called, these He also justified; and whom He justified, these He also glorified.”
Romans 8:28–30

The Transforming Power of Grace 7
"adorn the word of God" (Tit 2:9). Is our life presentable to God? Humility and brokenness is the only way we advance in the plan of God (Tit 3:1-4). We've been saved for good works (Tit 3:5-8). Justification by faith vs. works: Jam 2:14. Not one of the five occurrences of the word "save" in the book of James refers to eternal deliverance from the lake of fire. We lack wisdom (Jam 1:4-5). Blessed are we when we endure temptation (Jam 2:12). Implanted word can save our soul (Jam 2:18, Jam 2:21). Life is full of various (multi-colored) trials. When we stand in His presence, we'll be approved if we pass through the trial if we "count it all joy." He collects our tears (Psa 56:8). James wants us to be delivered through trials to glorify God. Dead faith isn't visible (Jam 2:14-24). Abraham was justified by works before men (Rom 4:1-5). Our faith is like our body, our living body has to breath to stay alive. The spirit is breath.
