 | | Sovereign Grace: The Sovereign Grace movement, although it openly adheres to Orthodox Christian, Calvinist, and Baptistic doctrines, nevertheless errs in its opposition to the open confession of the 1689’s covenantal teaching, ecclesiastical polity, and Puritanism, especially, its Puritan doctrines of the regulative principle and Christian Sabbath (1689, 22:1, 7,8). |
 | | Health-Wealth: In opposition to the Puritan doctrine that spiritual blessings and graces are the distinctive mark of God’s people under the new covenant (1689, 10 - 20), the Health-wealth movement erroneously believes that physical health and material prosperity always distinguish those who please God. |
 | | Prevenient Grace: In opposition to the Calvinistic doctrine of total inability (1689, 6 and 9), the error of prevenient grace claims that God, by an act of “prevenient grace”, removes the moral disability and bondage to indwelling sin from all men, and thus morally enables all men to come to Christ in repentance and faith. |
