"Antinomianism comes from the Greek meaning lawless. In Christian theology it is a pejorative term for the teaching that Christians are under no obligation to obey the laws of ethics or morality. Few, if any, would explicitly call themselves "antinomian," hence, it is usually a charge leveled by one group against an opposing group.
Antinomianism may be viewed as the polar opposite of legalism, the notion that obedience to a code of religious law is necessary for salvation. In this sense, both antinomianism and legalism are considered errant extremes."

Antinomianism is heresy in my opinion. A Christian cannot be a 'lawless' person.
The scripture says.....
YLT
Gal 2:15 we by nature Jews, and not sinners of the nations,
Gal 2:16 having known also that a man is not declared righteous by works of law, if not through the faith of Jesus Christ, also we in Christ Jesus did believe, that we might be declared righteous by the faith of Christ, and not by works of law, wherefore declared righteous by works of law shall be no flesh.'
Gal 2:17 And if, seeking to be declared righteous in Christ, we ourselves also were found sinners, is then Christ a ministrant of sin? let it not be!
Gal 2:18 for if the things I threw down, these again I build up, a transgressor I set myself forth;
Gal 2:19 for I through law, did die, that to God I may live;

Antinomianism means against "against the law".It holds to the theory that there are no moral laws God expects Christians to obey.It is not Biblical.Paul dealt with this issue in Romans 6:1-2.God expects us to live a life of morality,intergrity and love.I think antinomianism would fit well into a life Satan would like us to live.

so if one is a law breaker as I was, one can still steal and think one is saved?
Isn't that mocking God?
Do you ever break God commandments now that you are saved? Let's say you speed one mile per hour over the speed limit and don't ask forgiveness are you lost? At what point does Jesus deny you as a part of Him?
2 Tim 2:13 If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself.
Joh 6:37 All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.
Rev 3:5 He that overcometh (1 Jn 5:4), the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels.
We are all sinners.I know I try my best to be obedient to Jesus but it is impossible for me as a human to not sin.Just an angry thought is a sin.I will not be perfect until I get to heaven.
And then to be face with Him who died for us on a cross exacting unmerciful punishment for our sin, and then some believe that was not sufficient; it's now up to me. Oh no, when I see Him I read in:
Rev 22:12 And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.
Mat 25:21 His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
I am anxiously waiting to hear those words "Well done good and faithful servant".
Are you born of God? What I have read of your posts I certainly believe so.
1 Jn 5:4 For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.
And even any faith we have was given to us.
Rom 12:3 For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.
And that is not applying to any believer. Those not forgiven partook of all the word preached, the miracles performed, and yet turned away. The result? Act 4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
Yes,I am a OSAS believer.Although rewards at the Judgment will be given or taken away.
I am sort of messing with you.
Romans 2:14
For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves:
Is this sort of a doctrinal statement?
Technically this does not say (all) the law, but it does have the Gentiles doing things of the law. The ox is all of a sudden a bishop when they do the law though.
