Urban Legends of Evangelicalism

17. One way to share the Gospel is to say, "ask Jesus into your heart".
FALSE!
This is a sub-Christian euphemism, foreign to the Scriptures. Better would be: "today if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts as you did in the rebellion."

18. God's love is unconditional
FALSE!
Unconditional love is a farce. God's love is completely conditioned upon Christ.

19. God loves you just the way you are
FALSE!
God loves you the way Christ is. We please God by relying on His grace to make us like His Son.
