7 Types of Christians Who Cannot Be Saved | C.S. Lewis 2025

Matthew 7:21-24. That’s all you need to know.

Ain't that the truth

Please believe in God

So if I have sinned deliberately knowing that what I was doing was wrong but thought in my mind that I can ask for forgiveness later then am I damned? I truly have regret and distain for those things but I feel I have trampled Christ under foot and taken for granted his Grace.

De Heer is gestorven ook voor deze zonde. De zonde van weten dat je verkeerd bent en de zonde toch doet. Vraag vergeving daarvoor, met oprechte spijt. De Heer zal je vergeven en zeggen zoals tegen de blinde die Hij genas: " ga heen en zondig niet meer" De Heer kent onze zwakheden. Vecht tegen de zonde, steeds opnieuw. Het is een gevecht tegen overheden en machten die niet van deze wereld zijn zegt Paulus in de Efeziërsbrief. Vecht ertegen, en faal je opnieuw, Hij zal je vergeven. Je kunt ver afwijken van God, maar het is altijd maar 1 stap terug zei John Barnett eens.

So, would seeking justice and restitution from a govt employer who willingly violated laws, neglected duties to address repeated complaints of unlawful practices, and knowingly destroyed a career that took 30 years to achieve be wrong? Long term mental abuse affected my executive functioning. I was earning over 100k, but now I get less than half once a month. I'm about to be homeless. Do I just forgive and forget and let my family suffer along with me? I don't want revenge; I don't want millions; I want to be restored. Any advice, suggestion, or opinion?

Is this Billy Graham's voice?

[@cslewisdivine]

That's right

[@Longing-for-home]

@cslewisdivine, did he be actually read this at some point, or is it an AI copy of his voice?

@@Longing-for-home This is a stock voice to sound like that freemason Billy Graham. And yes, I've been a born again and baptized Christian in the Baptist faith since the age of 10. Graham isn't who you think he was. He spoke words from the bible with the sound of conviction. Believers, guard your hearts from online stock voice channels. Amen. Jesus saves. 💯👍

@@RichardC5568 , thanks. - I only asked the initial question because I didn't think it likely that Billy Graham had preached verbatim, someone else's message. Also, I'm not sure what axe you have to grind against Billy Graham, but I don't think it's helpful or relevant here. I for one have never seen or heard anything that even hints that the evangelist Billy (William Franklin - to check we're talking about the same one) Graham was a freemason. He preached all his life the same basic message, that of salvation by grace through faith in Jesus. He went out of his way at times to practice inclusivity (such as refusing to preach to a racially segregated audience, when such a practice was normal), whereas freemasonry is typically considered to be a secretive, exclusive organisation. He and his organisation also apparently denied being a mason. Secondly, we are called to have unity with one another. Jesus said in Luke 9:50 that someone who is not against us is for us. Even if you have some doctrinal point of difference with Billy Graham, beware of criticising a brother. He clearly drew and pointed thousands of people to Jesus over the course of his life. Thirdly and maybe a caveat, no-one is infallible. Whilst many bible teachers may communicate gospel truth very well, Billy Graham - just like everyone else - obviously would have made some mistakes along the way / had some weaknesses (less than me though, I reckon).. We are to follow and worship Jesus, not Billy Graham or any other teacher.
