CAN A TRUE CHRISTIAN FALL FROM GRACE?

Question: How do we explain Galatians 5:4 which talks of people falling from grace?

Answer: Gal 5:4... you have fallen from grace. - This shows that you can receive God's grace and then fall. Quite true: but what kind of grace, and in what context?

These words are addressed to a particular group, as the context shows:

Galatians 5: 2 "Behold I, Paul, say to you that if you receive circumcision, Christ will be of no benefit to you. 3 And I testify again to every man who receives circumcision, that he is under obligation to keep the whole Law. 4 You have been severed from Christ, you who are seeking to be justified by law; you have fallen from grace."

So in what way had those seeking to be justified by law "fallen from grace"? Read the answer HERE
