Many people will fail because while they seek justification and pray for pardon, they have no intentions on giving up their sin, lust or evil desires, so they have to indulge in a hope founded on this false premise for justification. The condition of true justification is repentance, faith and love to God. How can a person expect to be healthy while still indulging in habits that are unhealthy? So in the same sense how can a man be justified while he is still indulging in unrepentant sin? 1John 3:8-9 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil. 9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.

This does not mean that if we fall into temptation on occasion that we are not Christians. There are some in the Church that say if you believe in Jesus and are under Grace that if you go back into unrepentant sin you are still saved. If asked, that if a person goes into all kinds of impurity will he lose his soul, they say not as long as he believes in Jesus. So when a drunkard was asked if he believed in Christ he said he did so according to this doctrine he is saved. The same goes for the homosexual churches and all the rest of these types of places. Of course the true believer does not believe this not for a minute. Matt. 1:21 "She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name JESUS, because He will save His people from their sins." True faith and love will produce works without such is not faith. Luke 3:8; 5:32 Matt 3:8 Mark 1:4 "Therefore bear fruits worthy of repentance,"..."faith without works is dead."

Antinomianism people don't like to hear the truth when it comes right down to it because it cuts their heart and makes them fear. The truth is they seek comfort from their doctrines and not from Christ our redeemer. It would be better to fear now than to fear in hell, and it would be mercy for us to go through fiery trials now to bring us back to faith than to be lost forever. A lot of people really don't want to take the time to search the bible out completely and dig for the truth. They would rather let someone else do it for them especially if it made them feel good. Instead of bringing the fear of a Holy and just God to them who will punish and send wrath upon all who pervert the truth they believe a gospel that makes excuses so they don't have to change. God help us for we know the truth and don't do it!

Rom 1:16-18 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. 17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith. 18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;

The Gospel is the power of God to change your life completely that's what it means in the bible that you are a new creature. 2 Cor 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.

. You can know the truth but hold it in unrighteousness meaning that you do not intend to change, because of the doctrines that have been taught and believed. The free gift is given but there are conditions on receiving it.
