Dr. LAW And Dr. GRACE

By David J. Stewart | September 2020

Galatians 3:22-26, “But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe. But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed. Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith. But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster. For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.”

       God made two great divisions to His blessed Word: LAW and CHRIST! (or respectively, LAW and GRACE). The LAW shows a person their sinnership and guilty condition (Romans 3:19-20; 7:13), and then brings that person to Jesus Christ to be saved by grace through faith (Galatians 3:24-26). Brother Lester Roloff called them: Dr. Law and Dr. Grace. Dr. Law diagnoses you with the cancer of sin, which is terminal (Romans 6:23a, “For the wages of sin is death”). Then he sends you to go see Dr. Grace (Who is Jesus) and he is a miracle worker, let me tell you! This guy is such an amazing Doctor, that He can just speak the word and you are healed! Romans 6:23b, “but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”

“Yes, Jesus is Lord. He is Lord of the universe, and, of course, we believe that He is Lord. However, to believe that in order to be saved one must make Him the Lord of his life is just another form of salvation by works.” —Pastor Jack Hyles, “Lordship Salvation - An Enemy of Soulwinning

This is one of my favorite passages of Scripture. Oh how plain and simple the Scriptures are! In verse 26 we plainly read that the LAW brings us to Christ, “THAT WE MIGHT BE JUSTIFIED BY FAITH”!!! Could the Bible be any clearer? I think not. Where in the world do the Lordship Salvation crowd get their teachings? They sure don't get their doctrine from the Holy Bible. You cannot show me one verse that says to surrender all to Christ, turn from your sins, or follow Christ as “Lord” to be saved. The Bible simply teaches to believe.

1st Corinthians 6:9-11, “Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.”

Many people misunderstand the preceding Scripture passage. You don't go to Hell because you won't quit your sinning, you go to Hell because you reject Jesus as your Savior. Pastor Jack Hyles wrote a helpful book titled: 'Enemies Of Soul Winning.' One of my favorites is chapter 4, 'Misunderstood Repentance.' If you get repentance wrong, it's like the buttons on a shirt while getting dressed—if you get the first button wrong, then all the others buttons will be wrong too! 

We are living in apostate times today! I am shocked at the junk theology which has slowly crept into the churches. Many pastors have succumbed to the heretical teachings of Pastor John MacArthur, who has done more than anyone to destroy soulwinning churches! Likewise, if you watch and listen to Evangelist Ray Comfort, he never praises the Lord for the people he led to Christ. That is because in Ray's mind you cannot know for certain you are saved, not until your life is finished, conditional on whether you continue believing and repenting. Sadly, Dr. Steve Pettit (president of Bob Jones University) has also succumbed to this doctrine of devils, befriending and bidding Godspeed to John MacArthur.


We've got a bunch of quack doctors in our churches, rescue missions, ministries and Bible colleges today! Instead of Dr. Law bringing sinners to Dr. Grace, they are being brought to Dr. John Calvin (1509-1564) to be experimented on in a theological lab called a seminary! There is no deadly curse like the false gospel of Lordship Salvation. I thank God for Pastor Jack Hyles (1926-2001), who was 100% Free Grace Theology, and made this great statement:

“Yes, Jesus is Lord. He is Lord of the universe, and, of course, we believe that He is Lord. However, to believe that in order to be saved one must make Him the Lord of his life is just another form of salvation by works.” —Pastor Jack Hyles, “Lordship Salvation - An Enemy of Soulwinning

Amen and amen! Dr. Law has diagnosed every human being with terminal cancer, as a result of the wages of sin (Romans 6:23). No one can escape death! We are all sinners by nature and by choice. Although some people manage to live above reproach, no one can live above sin! Romans 3:23, “For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” Dr. Law has diagnosed you my friend, and the news is very bad. If you haven't been to Dr. Grace yet, you very much need to go see Him as soon as possible. His official name is Jesus. The faithful Old Testament prophet Isaiah foretold of His coming 700 years later:

Isaiah 53:5-6, He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not. Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.”

What a glorious Savior!!! If you haven't been to these doctors yet dear friend, now is the time. You need to realize that you are a dying sinner, on your way to Hell. And then you need to heed Dr. Law's advice and go see Jesus Christ, who is THE GREAT PHYSICIAN, to be healed of all your iniquities and receive God's free gift of eternal life. ...

Mark 2:15-17, “And it came to pass, that, as Jesus sat at meat in his house, many publicans and sinners sat also together with Jesus and his disciples: for there were many, and they followed him. And when the scribes and Pharisees saw him eat with publicans and sinners, they said unto his disciples, How is it that he eateth and drinketh with publicans and sinners? When Jesus heard it, he saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.”

He is waiting for you oh wretched needy sinner! The blessed Savior, Who has the nail-scared hands and feet, is lovingly waiting to embrace you with His love and give you eternal life. All you need to do is trust in Him! John 6:47, “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.” 

“If you do not put a difference between justification wrought by the man Christ without  and sanctification wrought by the Spirit of Christ within, you are not able to divide the Word aright; but contrariwise, you corrupt the Word of God, and cast stumbling blocks before the people.” —Evangelist John Bunyan

Truth + Half Truth = a Lie

Romans 16:17-18, “Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them. For they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple.”

1st Kings 18:17, “And it came to pass, when Ahab saw Elijah,
that Ahab said unto him, Art thou he that troubleth Israel?
