Rusty's Notes from The Grace Conference
Paul White - "The cancer of the grace message is not trusting the Spirit to do what He says He will do and then infiltrating bits of law to control the church & keep the machine running."
"The church today is multi-million dollar business that focuses on sin management. If the believers ever become victorious the church would lose money."
"Accountability was established because there is a lack of trust that Jesus is enough."
"Satan used the 1 rule in the garden against Adam because that was the only law. Satan uses the law against us. Satan pulls the Law off the cross and uses it against us."
Jeremy White - "The 10 Commandments is a constant reminder of how we have blown it."
Lucas Miles - "We are not always going to talk about grace. We will talk about Jesus."
Lynn Hyles - "I didn't come to just to get you out of trouble. I came that you might have life."
"I'm gonna get to heaven and God is going to say to me, 'I had a heck of a time living my life through you. I loved eating with you. I loved loved going to ballgames with you. I loved teaching with you.'"
Ralph Harris - "Do you have a sin problem? NO! But we have been induced to believe that we need to work on our sin issue. Why? When it has already been dealt with?"
Steve Eden - "Ministry with intimacy is a beautiful thing. Ministry without intimacy is idolatry."
Lynn Hiles - "Addiction is pleasure without satisfaction. And you are only going to be satisfied in Jesus."
"Jesus was dealing with the pressure of doing great things/miracles for the approval of men around Him." (Power of sin working on Jesus)
"Live under the inward approval of God rather than the outward approval of man."
Steve Eden - "Nothing works outside of God's fashions, attitudes and principals."
"The priest never examined the one who brought the sacrifice... the priest always examined the sacrifice to make sure it was perfect."
Paul White - "Righteousness is right standing with God. 'Be righteous' has nothing to do with doing things. It is a state of being based upon what Jesus did for us."
