4. Tell them they do not have to judge or confess their sins to escape chastisement.

5. Tell them that God does not bless or reward believers under grace according to their works.

6. Tell them they will not suffer tribulation.

7. Tell them that the local church is not important, but they can serve God sitting at home in their lazy boy.

8. Tell them that they are always in the will of God and in fellowship with God no matter what they do.

9. Tell them that God wants them to be “happy”.

10. Tell them that God is not interested in what they do, just in what they believe.

11. Tell them that it matters little to God if they defile their bodies with alcohol and cigarettes or their minds with rock and rap music.

12. Tell them that those who preach against their sins are really trying to “put them under the Law”.
