David Wilkerson exposes the deadly doctrine of antinomianism—the false grace that says you can live like the devil and still claim Christ's righteousness—warning that saying "I believe" without surrendering your whole life is not saving faith but damning presumption.

Preached: February 18, 1996

Main Points:

1. Justification by faith is Christianity's foundational truth, but if you stop there and never forsake worldly corruptions, you're living in a fool's paradise. Christ died to deliver us from this present evil world, not excuse us in it.
2. The antinomian doctrine says, "I can murder like David, worship idols like Solomon, deny Christ like Peter, and never forfeit divine favor." This theology still infects Christianity today through false grace messages.
3. Many have said a sinner's prayer and gone home unsaved because they gave mental assent rather than saving faith. Demons believe and tremble, but they're still demons.
4. True saving faith begins when you quit all trust in yourself and come empty-handed, saying, "Lord, I've tried and failed. There's no hope in me. I have nothing to offer you."Saving faith requires submitting your whole life with all your heart. If it's not a commitment to follow Jesus for life, it's not saving faith but a 30-day trial that ends in hell.
5. The strongest feature of saving faith is hunger for intimacy with God. If you won't pray, read God's Word, and have no desire to know him, you never had saving faith.
6. Christ didn't just die to get you to heaven. He died to deliver you from every roadblock of guilt, shame, and condemnation so you can have daily fellowship with the Father.
7. Many sit in church still smoking, drinking, and living unchanged, crying, "Grace! Grace!" while hiding behind false righteousness. You're blinder than any street addict who at least knows where they stand.

David Wilkerson exposes the deadliest sin ravaging the church—one that nearly destroyed the psalmist Asaph and is causing multitudes to shipwreck—the sin of making no sense of your suffering, which leads to the fatal unbelief that God doesn't keep his promises or care about your pain.

Main Points:

1. David Wilkerson shares a testimony of a 24-year-old Nigerian woman, faithful to God for four years, sending money home while barely surviving, who lost both parents in a crash and cried, "Why is it so hard to do right?"—revealing the dangerous moment when grief can turn to doubt.
2. Asaph nearly slipped into the abyss of unbelief because he couldn't understand why the wicked prospered while he was "plagued all day long and chastened every morning" despite his pure heart.
3. The deadliest sin isn't adultery, drugs, or pride—it's the sin of making no sense of your suffering, which opens the door to accusing God of being unfaithful or unconcerned.
4. When your God-given dreams blow up in your face, and plans crumble to ashes, the devil whispers, "You can't hear God anymore—why trust any voice now?" seeking to destroy your confidence in God's faithfulness.
5. Asaph found deliverance when he went to the sanctuary, and God showed him that the wicked live in terror behind their wealth. It's all a false dream that will burst while the righteous inherit glory.
6. Ministers are leaving the ministry not because of adultery or pornography, but because of this sin: "God, I tried to do right, and you did me wrong. You didn't protect me or guide me."
7. Unbelief that isn't dealt with quickly becomes fatal. It destroys and shipwrecks everything, costing people their salvation and sending them to hell despite years of faithful service.
8. God has a purpose for everything he allows, and when you can't understand, you go to the sanctuary and cry, "Lord, I don't have to understand anymore. You are the strength of my heart forever."

David Wilkerson reveals the horrifying scene of Solomon kneeling before pagan idols—the wisest man who ever lived lost his fear of God, proving that when you keep shaking off Holy Spirit conviction, you'll quickly turn aside to destruction.

Main Points:

• Solomon—the wisest man who ever lived, who built God's temple and experienced divine visitations—ended up kneeling before detestable idols while his abandoned temple stood empty with doors shut.

• The beginning of all wisdom is the fear of God, but when you keep shaking off Holy Spirit conviction, you're shaking off the fear that keeps you from falling away.

• Israel maintained their fear of God for less than 40 days after seeing Mount Sinai shake with divine trumpets. They turned aside quickly because they lusted exceedingly and got weary of the narrow way.

• People turn aside not to nothing but to someone or something that captures their heart. What is that thing God is dealing with that you refuse to lay down?

• Solomon had dreams and heard God's voice twice, but he never read the written Word that warned kings not to multiply horses, wives, or gold—the very things that destroyed him.

• In these last days, people run to prophets for a "word" that costs $100 while refusing to spend hours in the Book that would ground them against every deception.

• Your television, computer, and phone are your chariots to Embassy Row—click for pornography, click sports idolatry, click for shows and movies where you watch adultery while claiming to love Jesus.

• God has a Josiah company who will tear down every idol in their heart. They will not turn from following the Lord, keeping the fear of God burning until their casket radiates holy fire.
