What is Hyper-Grace??? The term hyper-grace has been used to describe a new wave of teaching that emphasizes the grace of God to the exclusion of other vital teachings such as repentance and confession of sin. Hyper-grace teachers maintain that all sin, past, present and future has been forgiven, so there is no need for a believer to ever confess it. Hyper-grace teaching says that, when God looks at us, He sees only holy and righteous people. The conclusion of hyper-grace teaching is that we are not bound even by Jesus' teaching, even as we are not under the Law; that believers are not responsible for their sin; and that anyone who disagrees is a pharsaical legalist. In short, hyper-grace teachers "pervert the grace of our God into a license for immorality" (Jude1:4) and flirt with antinomianism.  (source:  gotquestions.org ) In this post and the thread that follows, we will be discussing the erroneous teaching of Hyper grace . We will be posti

Breatharianism is a dangerous false teaching that believers can live without eating any food (a fasted lifestyle) by partaking only of the Holy Communion everyday, drawing from sunlight and other energy vibrations.  Immortality on Earth is the false teaching that a believer in Christ does not have to physically die and has the potential to overcome physical death through faith, to live forever on the earth. In this post and the thread that follows, we will be discussing erroneous teachings of Breatharianism & Immortality on earth.

Joseph Prince , one of the major proponents of Hyper Grace (a false doctrine, we have exposed on our blog) is scheduled to do a conference in Mumbai, later this year (2018).  A team of senior pastors from Prince's Singapore Church are doing an introductory breakfast meeting for pastors/leaders of Mumbai in the month of May.  It appears that similar meetings are likely to take place in other Indian cities as well. This is a concern since we have exposed Joseph Prince's erroneous teachings in this FTA group for over 3 years. As a first step, FTA intends to approach the event organizers , by submitting a letter highlighting our concerns about the teachings. We also plan to circulate this letter to Pastors in Mumbai. Please follow the updates, under this thread. - admin@FTA-India
