⚔️ “The Heresies of Denominational Churchianity”
Compared with the Sound Doctrine of the Pauline Grace Revelation (KJB 1611–1769 | Mid-Acts Right Division)

🔹 INTRODUCTION
In this present evil world (Galatians 1:4), “the god of this world” (2 Corinthians 4:4) has blinded many through religious systems that appear Christian but deny “the revelation of the mystery” (Romans 16:25). These denominations mix Law and Grace, prophecy and mystery, Israel and the Body of Christ — creating another gospel, another Jesus, and another spirit (2 Corinthians 11:4).
Paul commands believers in this dispensation:
2 Timothy 1:13
Hold fast the form of sound words, which thou hast heard of me, in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
2 Timothy 2:15
Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

🕱 SECTION I — THE ROOT HERESY: MIXING LAW AND GRACE
❌ Denominational Error:
Most denominations (Catholic, Orthodox, Protestant, Pentecostal, etc.) teach salvation as a process, dependent on works, sacraments, or endurance.
✅ Pauline Grace Doctrine:
Salvation is a free gift, complete, eternal, and received by faith alone in the finished crosswork of Christ.
Romans 3:24
Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
Ephesians 2:8–9
For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
Not of works, lest any man should boast.
Titus 3:5
Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us...

🕱 SECTION II — THE HERESY OF “SPIRITUAL ISRAEL”
❌ Denominational Error:
Claiming the Church today is “spiritual Israel,” inheriting her covenants and kingdom promises.
✅ Pauline Grace Doctrine:
Israel and the Body of Christ are two distinct entities. The Body was a mystery hidden from ages, not revealed until Paul.
Romans 11:25
For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery... that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.
Ephesians 3:5–6
Which in other ages was not made known unto the sons of men... That the Gentiles should be fellowheirs, and of the same body, and partakers of his promise in Christ by the gospel:

🕱 SECTION III — THE HERESY OF WATER BAPTISM
❌ Denominational Error:
Teaching water baptism as essential for salvation, membership, or sanctification.
✅ Pauline Grace Doctrine:
There is only one baptism today — by the Spirit, not water — identifying the believer into the death, burial, and resurrection of Christ.
Ephesians 4:5
One Lord, one faith, one baptism,
1 Corinthians 12:13
For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body...
Romans 6:3–4
Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?

🕱 SECTION IV — THE HERESY OF SIGNS, TONGUES, AND HEALINGS
❌ Denominational Error:
Charismatic and Pentecostal systems seek sign gifts and miracles as evidence of the Spirit’s presence.
✅ Pauline Grace Doctrine:
Sign gifts ceased with the completion of Scripture and the setting aside of Israel’s prophetic program.
1 Corinthians 13:8–10
Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail... whether there be tongues, they shall cease... But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.
2 Corinthians 5:7
For we walk by faith, not by sight:

🕱 SECTION V — THE HERESY OF LORDSHIP SALVATION
❌ Denominational Error:
Teaching that salvation requires making Jesus “Lord of your life,” repentance from sin, or enduring to the end.
✅ Pauline Grace Doctrine:
Salvation is by believing the gospel of Christ — His finished work, not your performance.
1 Corinthians 15:3–4
For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
Romans 4:5
But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.

🕱 SECTION VI — THE HERESY OF CONFUSING THE GOSPELS
❌ Denominational Error:
Mixing the Gospel of the Kingdom (for Israel) with the Gospel of the Grace of God (for the Body of Christ).
✅ Pauline Grace Doctrine:
Only Paul’s gospel saves today.
Galatians 1:8–9
But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
Acts 20:24
But none of these things move me... so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry... to testify the gospel of the grace of God.

🕱 SECTION VII — THE HERESY OF TITHING
❌ Denominational Error:
Commanding believers to tithe ten percent as under Moses’ law.
✅ Pauline Grace Doctrine:
Giving today is voluntary, cheerful, and according to one’s purpose of heart.
2 Corinthians 9:7
Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.
Romans 6:14
For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.

🕱 SECTION VIII — THE HERESY OF “KINGDOM NOW” THEOLOGY
❌ Denominational Error:
Teaching that believers today are building the kingdom, reforming the world, or ushering in Christ’s return.
✅ Pauline Grace Doctrine:
The Body of Christ has a heavenly calling, not an earthly kingdom program.
Philippians 3:20
For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ:
Colossians 3:2–3
Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.
For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.

🕱 SECTION IX — THE HERESY OF LOSING SALVATION
❌ Denominational Error:
Teaching that a believer can fall from grace, lose salvation, or must maintain it by good works.
✅ Pauline Grace Doctrine:
The believer is eternally secure — sealed by the Holy Ghost until the day of redemption.
Ephesians 1:13–14
In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,
Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.
Romans 8:38–39
For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life... shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

🕱 SECTION X — THE HERESY OF ECUMENISM
❌ Denominational Error:
Uniting under false “Christian unity,” ignoring doctrinal truth for outward peace.
✅ Pauline Grace Doctrine:
True unity is spiritual — in the one faith, one body, and one gospel revealed to Paul.
Ephesians 4:3–6
Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.
There is one body, and one Spirit... One Lord, one faith, one baptism, One God and Father of all...

🔚 CONCLUSION
Modern denominationalism is the product of confusion, because men refuse to “rightly divide the word of truth.” Religion mixes Law and Grace, Earth and Heaven, Israel and the Body, Prophecy and Mystery — producing error after error.
Paul warned:
2 Timothy 4:3–4
For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
Let us therefore stand firm upon Paul’s gospel and the revelation of the mystery:
Romans 16:25–26
Now to him that is of power to stablish you according to my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery, which was kept secret since the world began,
But now is made manifest...
