"Radical grace" preaches against all the laws including God's laws and commandments. It is not the pure grace we normally believe for salvation. Instead it is something that is radically and beautifully preached to give sinners and believers the false impression that Christians have no more laws or do not need to keep God's commandments, and hence they have more freedom and more prosperity as compared with the traditional believers. Many preachers have started to preach this grace radically or just the radical grace. they preached no more laws ? no more future sins ? no confession of sins ? Repentance is just believing only ? Repentance has no mentioning of sins ? Paul is a grace preacher, not a repentance preacher ? Cast out the bondwomen means cast out all God's laws ? Teaching of God's laws and principles is 'mixture' with grace ?
Non-believers would receive these messages because they are untrained in Bible knowledge. They are as ignorant as Nicodemus who did not know repentance or the re-birth of their spirit through the dying of self or repentance, commonly known as being born again. Jesus knew that the Pharisees would have difficulty to understand the re-birth or born again experience (John 2:1-21, Matt 3:7-11)
I believe in sound doctrine. One of the ways to promote sound doctrine is to identity any radical or controversial doctrine. It should be followed by an honest and open discussion of it without hypocrisy. Hence, genuine short comments on the title are welcomed, if possible with supporting Bible references please.
Radical Grace is totally unbiblical:
Luke 13 There were present at that season some that told him of the Galilaeans, whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices.
And Jesus answering said unto them, Suppose ye that these Galilaeans were sinners above all the Galilaeans, because they suffered such things?
I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.

Jeremias 18.9
And at what instant I shall speak concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to build and to plant it;
If it do evil in my sight, that it obey not my voice, then I will repent of the good, wherewith I said I would benefit them.

The Rich and the Kingdom of God
Just then a man came up to Jesus and asked, “Teacher, what good thing must I do to get eternal life?” “(...) . If you want to enter life, keep the commandments.” 18 “Which ones?” he inquired. Jesus replied, “‘You shall not murder, you shall not commit adultery, you shall not steal, you shall not give false testimony,honor your father and mother,’ and ‘love your neighbor as yourself.’ ”
