Steven Lawson declares:
You can be wrong about sovereign election and still go to heaven.
But you cannot be wrong about justification by faith and enter.
This Steven Lawson video contains mostly truth. Those truths were preached with such powerful conviction. The truths that he preached are not heard loud and clear within most Protestant churches. Many who hear it will feel uncomfortable for it speaks of many within unregenerate unrepentant "Churchchianity" loving to have their ears tickled by false teachers who let them continue living in sin but give them false assurance of salvation.

But my disagreement with her was over...
He was in the thread where I shared the ton of verses which teach that judgment is according to works.

On John 15v2: Every branch in me that does not bear fruit he takes away, and every branch that does bear fruit he prunes, that it may bear more fruit.
Another tweeter replied to this:
2 Cor 5 (ESV): 19 that is, in Christ God was reconciling the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and entrusting to us the message of reconciliation. 20 Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, God making his appeal through us. We implore you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. 21 For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.
1 Cor 1 (ESV): 28 God chose what is low and despised in the world, even things that are not, to bring to nothing things that are, 29 so that no human being might boast in the presence of God. 30 And because of him (i.e. God) you are in Christ Jesus, who became to us wisdom from God, righteousness and sanctification and redemption, 31 so that, as it is written, “Let the one who boasts, boast in the Lord.”

End of conversation.
So we return to where we began.
Steven Lawson declared:
You can be wrong about sovereign election and still go to heaven.
But you cannot be wrong about justification by faith and enter.
Application:
Protestants define justification by "faith" as: justification by grace ALONE through faith ALONE depending on Christ's (imputed righteousness) ALONE.
These are all man-made traditions directly distorting the Scripture: https://searchingscripture.wixsite.com/solascriptura/post/some-protestants-don-t-believe-iroc-too
Steven Lawson obviously holds to this Protestant definition of justification by "faith" which I was attacking with the Sword of the Spirit. Which is why he blocked me.
Steven Lawson is right that: "you cannot be wrong about justification by faith and enter (heaven)."
But since Protestants are wrong about justification by "faith", the truth is, they cannot enter heaven.
Protestants have not entered the true narrow gate opened by Jesus and taught by his apostles. Protestants have entered through the wide gate opened up by Martin Luther in the 16th century. Millions upon millions have walked through it and continue to do so.
Dear reader, please repent for your own eternal good.
