The Gospel of the Grace of God is under attack today, perhaps to a greater degree than any time since the Reformation. The current attack is coming in the form of a doctrine known as "Lordship Salvation." During the past decade or so, Lordship Salvation has become a burning issue among evangelicals. On the one hand, this is good because it is forcing Christians to reevaluate and reexamine that most basic question of life: "What must I do to be saved?" The unfortunate result of this debate is that many believers are becoming desperately confused as some very popular Christian leaders are abandoning the Gospel of the Grace of God for "another gospel." The stakes in this discussion are high. This is not merely a debate on theological fine points. The Lordship Salvation issue strikes at the very heart of the Gospel. The very souls of men are at stake in this debate. As much as the two sides of the Lordship debate differ in their view of how one obtains salvation, both sides agree on this: whoever is wrong is in danger of leading precious souls straight to eternal Hell; both sides admit this. That is why it is so important for us to examine the issue and have a proper Biblical approach to understanding it.
