Resurrection Replaced: Why Acts 2:38 Isn’t The Gospel - EP86

from Grace Escape · host Justin and Tiffany

This Resurrection Sunday episode points straight to the heart of what really saves us: the gospel of Jesus Christ. Today, Justin and Tiffany challenge the Oneness Pentecostal claim that Acts 2:38 is the gospel—or worse, a required 3-step formula for salvation. They explain why this interpretation is a distortion of the true good news, how it turns Christ’s finished work into a human effort, and why the gospel isn't about what you do, but what Jesus has already done. And you can walk in confidence knowing that is enough. If you’ve ever felt pressured to “earn” your salvation, this episode is your reminder that grace is a gift—and it’s yours through faith alone.If anyone is preaching to you a gospel contrary to the one you received, let him be accursed. - Galatians 1:9 ESVLast Week: Spiritual Gag Orders: How Abusive Leaders Keep You Quiet - EP84Playlists:Examining PentecostalismThe Church BuildingHoliness StandardsThe “MOG” (Man of God)All About The MoneyPodcast Playlist⁠ - YoutubeShow Links:Victims of Bait & Switch - S01E33Gentry Mangun – “don’t miss out”Nathaniel Urshan – “the gospel is given in Acts 2”FPC of Durham – “if you haven’t obeyed Acts 2:38”Nathan Holmes – “Peter’s Keys”Raymond Woodward – “the gospel needs our response”Nathaniel Urshan – “I’m afraid you’re not getting it”Nathaniel Haney – “God has one message”Matthew Tuttle – “you should be scared”Ken Gurley – “living your best life now”Resources:DivideTheWord.blogResponsible Faith - YouTubeSpiritualabuse.orgB.I.T.E.
