Having died more than once and speaking much first hand experience to how Heaven, the Earth, and other realms are setup, I can tell you suicide is no escape from anything and actually makes it far worse on you! Something to never forget. If you die on Earth most ways you usually end up places other than the Earth but in the case of suicide, you end up perfectly alive on Earth like nothing happened other than perhaps notice some small changes to what you know as Earth may be slightly different. You end up on a parallel Earth which is usually nearly identical with the same or n perhaps even worse troubles for you and though you wer successful killing yourself where you were originally, you begin to doubt that because all indications in the alternate Earth is a different course of events where that was not the case at all and in this loop you forever stay alive seemingly stuck on Earth. A situation actually worse than concepts of hell for most people.

@@j-life8502 You are approaching this with the mindset of a Pharisee or some other kind of legalistic perfectionist who believes they must work it all out on their own maintaining constant awareness about whether they were re "conscious" enough or "sorry enough" to keep walking with God. If we do not a random collision with a Mack truck may well send us to hell. This is not what traditional believers in free will think. It is just a straw man constructed by believers in antinomianism. When you make a straw man argument, you’re essentially arguing against an IMAGINARY scarecrow. It’s an easy way to make your argument sound infallible-and that’s what makes it a LOGICAL FALLACY. Regarding Matthew 11:28: Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me; for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.” Did Christ say look at my yoke, study and admire it in the abstract? No, He said Take my YOKE UPON you. An ox does not wear a yoke as a decoration. The yoke UNITES Master and Animal together in the common purpose of doing the master's WILL. It is WORK but since the Holy Spirit helps us do it the work is not laborious but LIGHT and brings rest not like the yoke of the Law which Peter said neither he nor his fathers could bear.

But being saved from our former sins isn’t the same thing as receiving eternal life in heaven. That comes thru obedience AFTER that debt is paid.

In my personal walk with christ, there have been times I have backslid, however, just in those backsliding time when my fleshly spirit did the things that didnt agree and life started to take a turn for the worse, God never gave up on me he sent laborers on the way and put me in circumstances where i had no choice but to turn back to him. Granted it is a growing process because my backsliding was a result of getting sucked in by the lies of the enemy and i fell farther into sin but i didnt originally intend to sin. Each time when he restores me and pulls me back i grow in knowledge of him. To me it reminds me of when God starts a work in you hes gonna finish it. God bless

Jon Singleton I have followed much of your thread and it appears that you are striving hard to debate with others to prove them wrong because you believe you have it all down, drawn out and put together. Brother, if you want to talk about something Biblical your talking it, it’s that biblical term Pride. To assume your position is dangerous and you should confess this area of your life to Jesus Christ and allow Him to rid you from this. Even this young woman who gave a testimony of how she walked away from God and was like the prodigal daughter and God pursued her in her backslidden state is the Agape love of God Almighty. I to walked away for sometime, but God never gave up on me. I came back praise God, because He didn’t want me to stay in that backslidden state. God is merciful to us all, and none of us are even worthy enough to deserve this gift of salvation that he offers freely to us. Some of the greatest apostasy that’s running rampant in the church today are self righteous people preaching a message that they themselves aren’t even able to live or abide by. They walk in arrogance and great pride like they have arrived. The fact is, none of us have truly arrived. We are always being changed and transformed to be more like Him. We must be teachable because the moment we stop, Pride takes the lead.

Not to mention verses like in the end times they'll DEPART from the faith which you can only depart if you were once walking in true faith. As well as go about your salvation with fear and trembling why would Jesus say that if it was impossible to lose.

@@jeffouellette9946 I’d be careful calling it doctrine of demons and assuming OSAS just makes people feel like they’re ok to compromise in sin, the Holy Spirit will let you know and convict you. I am genuinely curious though if you can lose salvation what is the line you can’t cross? The parable of the prodigal son is a great parable that shows that even if we turn away for a time he is always there to welcome us back into fellowship with him with open arms. It’s not like if you start falling back into your old sinful habits and attitudes for a time, that Gods grace and mercy doesn’t still cover you. He will chastise and discipline his children when they’re in disobedience but that’s evidence that we are truly his children, I think that’s what happens when “a dog goes back to its vomit” you get chastised but you don’t lose salvation if you genuinely have saving faith in Jesus Christ. His blood paid for past present and future sins in the eternal sense but he does not excuse us from the consequence of sin in this life when we slip up (which we will). I just don’t think it lines up with scripture that you can lose salvation even with the common anti OSAS verses people try to use like Hebrews 6:6. We need to rightly divide the word of truth and interpret the more difficult passages in context carefully and in light of the other plain truths about salvation that are in the Bible, after all the Bible has no contradictions but with the common interpretation of Hebrews 6:6 it would appear to contradict the prodigal son parable. I’m open to admitting if I am wrong and want to seek the genuine truth of God but I do truly believe OSAS after praying for the Holy Spirit to reveal the truth on this contentious topic and I feel like he has led me towards OSAS every time I go to prayer about it.

[@TheGravityShifter]

Yes. Those are the ones who were never saved in the first place. The best example of such a person is Judas. Who was given the power to perform miracles. But he was never saved. Not to mention John writes that those who turn from the faith, never had it to begin with. If they were one of us, they'd stay with us, but since they aren't one of us, turned away. Not word for word but that's basically what he wrote. This is irrefutable proof that you can't lose salvation. If you "lose it", that means you never had it.

[@celinamilian]

@@xepiloguex You just contradicted in that statement. It all means God is sovereign to give power to whomever He sees fit and that is amazing. Some shall ask and be given. And somewhere there is a story of disciples of some sort (70 something) who where sent somewhere to cast demons out and when they came back feeling all pumped up and pampered by the HS, the Lord said chill out buddies don't let this stuff get to your head. We have to remember we are in a longeated Spiritual warfare as opposed to being saved by daily battles as such. On another thing the fact you are uncertain is good but try not to go by your beliefs, this is the kind of thing you pray for for deeper understanding and He shall reveal. Hesitate not, to ask about anything. Because our self belief will lead to denying the Power of God and live in the faulty essence of intellectualism.

REPENT OF YOUR SINS JESUS IS COMING.

[@visit_vaticancatholic_dot_com]

@@labae8728 Your anti-Catholic sentiments are quite wrong and you need to get your facts right. If you really believe in praying to Jesus for yourself (in the way you seem to be trying to articulate, i.e. excluding intercessors), then logically you would have to condemn "Christians" for asking their fellow "Christians" to pray for them, in order to be consistent. Catholics do pray to Jesus directly, by the way. You need to stop all the anti-Catholic garbage and make consulting this information your number one priority. Your version of Christianity is a counterfeit, and is unhistorical and unbiblical. The Catholic Church is the original Church and you need to belong to it for eternal salvation. Before you dismiss this information by saying you only stick with the Bible, you should know that the very term "Bible" as applied to the books of the Old and New Testaments, comes from St. John Chrysostom, who was a fourth century Catholic bishop. This fact was acknowledged by Protestant scholar, F.F. Bruce. You can see more about this in the video, The First Use of The Bible: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oqqUZGqYp56Wqrs Also, the Catholic Church decided what books were to be in the Bible, so you don't even have a Bible without the Catholic Church. The Bible did not fall out of the sky intact. It was put together by the Catholic Church, which is the Church Jesus established (Matthew 16:18-19). You can't be a follower of Jesus unless you accept all of His teaching and hear His Church. That only happens in the traditional Catholic faith. Additionally, if you're one to label the Catholic use of statues as idolatrous, then your problem would be with God and the Bible, because God specifically commands the making of religious statues. The Bible does not condemn the use of true religious statues and images. See Exodus 25:17-19 below (and keep in mind that cherubim are angels): And thou shalt make a mercy seat pure gold: two cubits and a half the length thereof, and a cubit and a half the breadth thereof. And thou shalt make two cherubims gold, beaten work shalt thou make them, in the two ends of the mercy seat. And make one cherub on the one end, and the other cherub on the other end: of the mercy seat shall ye make the cherubims on the two ends thereof. Other Bible references which show God's command to make statues for true religious purposes are: Exodus 26:1, 1 Kings 6, 1 Kings 7:25-36 and Numbers 21:8. For more information about what the Bible teaches regarding the use of true religious statues and praying to Saints (not worshipping Saints), please see this audio with Bible references for one's learning: www.mostholyfamilymonastery.com/catholicchurch/bible-praying-to-saints/#.Xy2Eay2ZPs0 God wants you to become a traditional Catholic. I don't mean to join what purports to be the Catholic Church, which is currently headed by the evil man Antipope Francis. That's the Vatican II Counterfeit Catholic Church.

[@7tree1outlaw]

I got saved when I was 11. To avoid writing out my whole testimony, I will simply say that I stayed from God in my early 20s, and for all intents and purposes, lost my faith. It was to the point where I was angry with God, and tried MULTIPLE times to complete leave the faith. But GOD, through what I can only believe is the power of the Holy Spirit kept bringing me back. Kept pricking my heart and wouldn't let me go ”I am sure of this, that he who started a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.“ ‭‭Philippians‬ ‭1‬:‭6‬ ‭CSB‬‬ To God be the glory!

[@LookoutMountain4ever]

Yes, that is true, and don't let anyone deceive you otherwise. There are many scriptures that show God's power in saving and "keeping" those whom He saves. Psalm 37:28, "For the Lord loves judgment, and forsakes not His saints; they are preserved forever..." He Himself "preserves" them. Psalm 65:4, "Blessed is the individual whom YOU CHOOSE, and CAUSE TO APPROACH YOU, that he may dwell in Your courts (implying forever)..." If it was all up to us to keep our salvation, then we would be our own saviors, and would have no need of the Holy Spirit. He "seals" us by His Spirit "UNTO the day of salvation," not until we decide to walk away. How could He call any of us His "elect" if we "could" forsake Him? Notice what Jesus said about His elect in Matt. 24:24, "For there shall arise false Christs (false anointed ones -- the charlatans always claim to operate in the "anointing"), and false prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders (slaying in the spirit? laughing uncontrollably? false gifts of the Spirit? fake casting out demons? etc.); insomuch that, IF IT WERE POSSIBLE, they shall deceive the VERY ELECT." This is a good example that Jesus will keep His elect from being deceived to the point of apostasy. Is it merely "our" will involved? John Baptist was filled with the Spirit while a fetus in his mother's womb. He didn't ask God first, nor did God ask him. His mission to pave the way for YHWH Messiah was prophesied by Isaiah about 700 years before his birth. John could no more apostatize from God and not complete his mission than the moon could decide to leave its orbit around the earth. Again, Isaiah prophesied of a coming king of the Medo-Persians named Cyrus, who he said would issue the decree to rebuild Jerusalem and the Temple, whom God called His "son" (He wasn't the Son of God, of course, but obedient to Him as a son in what God had raised him up to do for Him). But he wrote this prophecy over 200 years before his birth. Cyrus was made by God for this purpose, just like He raised up the evil Pharaoh to show His wonders in Egypt. But does God's will for us mean that we have no choice? Nope. Both wills are involved, which is a conundrum that no man can fully parse. All the warnings of scripture against sin, lethargy, apostasy, etc., only hit bone with God's elect. Those whom Jesus described as seed sown by the wayside, or on rocky ground, or among thorns, or tares, will not fully heed the warnings and repent. Lastly, as you read Jesus' final prayer for His 11 apostles in John 17, you will find that He said that He "kept" them. Compare those verses with John 6:39, the wording is identical. He "keeps" ALL that the Father has given Him, and will lose "NONE" (KJV says "nothing", but the Greek word is "me" [pronounced "may"], which means that all implications are ruled out, in other words, it is "impossible" for Jesus to lose even one of those the Father had already given Him before the foundation of the world, just as it was impossible for Him to have lost the 11 apostles, or Paul, or John Baptist, or Moses, or Elijah, or David. The only reason He lost Judas, whom He described early on as a "devil", was because his betrayal was prophesied in the scriptures hundreds of years before he was born. Jesus said of his betrayal, "that the scripture might be fulfilled." Well, John 6:39 is also a scripture that must be fulfilled -- He will lose NONE. Rejoice in His salvation!

You can lose blessings and rewards by living a back-slidden life and come under God's discipline and conviction of sin but you won't lose your salvation. I should know I got saved in 1972 and have had many ups and downs but I look for the Lord's appearing everyday.

[@raygabrelcik2578]

Good brother, "Phillip." Living a "back-slidden" life is very dangerous, you give "demons" open access into every area of your life. Why, if one cannot "fall-away" do we see those words in scripture? My friend, read CLOSELY the following verses, and then--ask the LORD for understanding--not MINE--but HIS. Gal.3:1-5; Gal.5:7; Gal.4:8,9; Luke 8:13b; Matt.26:31b; Mark 4:15; Luke 14:34; 2 Thess.3:6-15; 1Tim.1: 3-11; 1Tim.4:1; 1Tim.5:15; Also, chapter 6:10b. Check out Luke 9:62. "Putting your HAND to the plow refers to the "WORK" we do as believers! 2 Pet.2"20-22 is extremely clear in context. Also, 2 Pet.2:15. The following is a clear-cut, sober warning: Heb.2:1-3. And of course, Heb.6: 4-6, which is taken OUT if its obvious context by some Christians. And YES--Heb.7:27 says that "Christ died ONCE for ALL..." But that is NOT implying one cannot "fall." There are quite a few MORE, good brother, but tell me, why is there actually more WARNINGS in scripture than "pats on the back?" God TELLS us, "Be SOBER-MINED and...WATCH." Watch WHAT? It's the same thing as "take heed...stand...lest you FALL." Some would say it makes it sound as if God is impersonal--I beg to differ! He LOVES us enough to WARN us what can happen if we allow "laodicia" to get the better--or should I say--WORST of us. Pray for wisdom, my friend, for she is greater than "fine jewels." God bless you.

As a pastor who once was miles from God and knowing I was not covered by His mighty grace any longer, I believe with such an important doctrine where people’s eternal security rests, the topic needs much study to support such a stand.

So if someone decides to reject Christianity years later and live a satanic life or just godless existence, then why would this person deserve to live with Jesus in heaven when he clearly didn’t want to live with Him here?! I think in order to decide upon and to preach a doctrine, you need firstly not to find scriptures that support your view especially if the are plenty of scriptures saying the opposite. I would like to hear you overcome the many parables, warnings and teachings all through the Bible before we disregard and ignore clear teachings in the word. Especially when we are warned not to preach a foreign gospel or add to the word. Here are just a few; 1. 10 virgins, 5 that don’t make it and yet all are called and waiting 2.

Tasting of the heavenly gifts and partaken in the Holy Spirit but falling away there is no forgiveness of their sin 7. Rev 12 leave the out Court worshipers 8.

I guess you can make the argument that it's possible to lose salvation if you twist the meaning to fit a certain view. But in context, none of these support losing salvation. Study scripture as a whole. Not as individual verses. Pick one from your list and let's discuss it with scriptural support.

Ezekiel 18:24 KJV Word of God! ✨ It's said clearly. It clearly says that the "righteous" (who are the ones that are justified) can lose everything that they had done if they turn away from their righteousness... All of their righteousness won't be even mentioned. A righteous can fall and lose salvation.

I was saved several years ago. Easily the greatest moment of my life. I felt instantly transformed and different. The lord instilled in me something I never really had before, discernment. I still struggle with sin to this day. Mostly because I was a new Christian and was fairly ignorant of scripture or was fed a false gospel at times. But never once did I feel unsaved or condemned. But when I did commit a sin I felt something I never felt before which was guilt and remorse over what I had done. I look forward to the day I get to stand face to face with Jesus and rejoice in heaven with other believers.

@Melony Kilby Wrong. That's dangerously close to salvation by works, which we know from Ephesians 2:8-9 is not Scriptural. Salvation is by faith and faith alone. If believers could lose their salvation simply by sinning again, then we would constantly be losing our salvation and needing to regain it. Faith in Christ is the only way to reach salvation, and conversely renouncing that faith is the only way a believer can lose his/her salvation.

There are few saved because many refuse to BELIEVE in Jesus the Christ for Eternal Life. The way that leads to life is narrow (Matt. 7:13-14). Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but by Him (John 14:6). Self-righteous people are on the wrong path. They are on the broad way that leads to destruction (Matt. 7:13). Jesus came to save those who know that they are sick and lost and in absolute need of His deliverance (Matt. 9:12-13; Mark 2:17; Luke 5:31-32; 18:9-14). Of course, that is all of us, all of mankind. However, some people are unwilling to own up to the truth. The cross of Christ is a stumbling block to those who think that they are good enough to deserve kingdom entrance. Those who throughout the course of their lives reject the free gift of salvation and refuse to trust in Christ alone will find out that in reality they are sinners, those who “practice lawlessness” (Matt. 7:23). Only then it will be too late. What would you say if you appeared before God and He said, “Why should I let you into My kingdom?” Matthew 7:22 is the wrong answer. The right answer is, “Lord, I am an unworthy sinner who has placed his complete trust upon what Jesus did for me upon the cross, and He promised that whoever believes in Him has eternal life” (Luke 18:13-14; John 3:16; Rom. 4:5; Eph. 2:8-9; Titus 3:5).May we call people to do the will of God so that they can obtain entrance into the kingdom of God. Those who place their trust wholly in Jesus Christ have done the will of the Father and have already passed from death to life (John 5:24) and will not come into judgment regarding their eternal destiny (John 3:18).

Hate to burst your bubble, but he would forsake you if you forsake him. You can separate yourself from God, but cannot separate him from you. The scripture says so. However, you are right. "...True followers will never lose their salvation..." because in order to demonstrate that your faith is genuine, we have to do good works. As long as we do both, in accordance with his will, we will -always- be saved. God will always be with us. However, he may not SAVE us. Those are two distinctive issues. God is with the person shouting at the Cashier @ Walmart. However, he likely ALSO is with that cashier. The person shouting at the cashier isn't doing a good work. So, thus, her mistake if repeated without repentance, she is not doing good works continually. However, God is still with you. You just can't feel his presence/ the feeling of BEING saved. Still, Christ be with you!

You can separate yourself from that behavior and use it as an example of what not to do. However, you should not judge them or their relationship with God. The same goes for all non-believers. Instead of damning, or holding people in contempt, try to build a bridge. Otherwise, you are going to be separating yourself from god. A high horse is not a good work.

However, nowhere does that verse say anyone is fit to judge anyone. So, back to my comment, the only person(s) fit to judge the sins of another being is the Father & the Son. Nobody else has that right. God chose you to speak his word, but not to judge others. Condemning others before their judgement only adds sin to your own list. The meaning I'm getting at is described in Matthew 7. You are not perfect, so you are to discuss sinful nature, and provide constructive feedback. However, you cannot condemn people before they are truly condemned. Repentance is a concept we only partially understand. Divine Salvation plays a role in it, and we have to understand we didn't set the rules for salvation. God did. You must forgive your sister and your family. Forgiveness doesn't mean you forget, but it means you need to let go of the anger and resentment. That pulls you away from God. Just reading your comments, I can feel that raw anger and rage. You have to let yourself heal, but you also cannot condemn them. At some point, they will haver to atone for their sins (either on this Earth or in the Nether).

[@theministerartist9249]

Brother Allen, I appreciate and respect the work you do for the lord. I am a subscriber and I will continue to watch your videos. However, with that said I must respectfully disagree that once saved always saved. I agree works do not save us but the grace of God. We cannot earn our way to heaven. I also believe we can be forgiven multiple times for our sins and no sin is too great to be covered by Jesus atonement for our sins. Nevertheless, if we turn away from God and do not repent we chose not to serve him. Matthew 7:21Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. This verse is not just for false prophets but anyone who is not doing God’s will. If a believer is unrepentant of the sins in 1 Corinthians 6:9, Galatians 5:21, and Revelation 21:8 they will not enter the kingdom of heaven. Continually committing the sins mentioned in those chapters without repenting would contradict God’s word. Saying I am sorry is different from repenting. Furthermore, in Matthew 6:24 No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon. Many people want to have enough of Jesus to be saved but still have fun with the devil. I believe that it is risky because your heart could turn away from God and you won't repent anymore. Some peopleget old, sick, or injured and choose to repent. However, we could be killed instantly without a chance to repent. Even when we have been baptized we must choose who we will serve. We could fall away and even come into unbelief. God does not force us to choose. God wants all of us to return home to him. God will forgive us if we ask Him. However, individuals have to ask for forgiveness and try to serve to the best of our ability. Respectfully. Your brother in Christ The Minister Artist

[@Silverheart1956]

Dear The Minister Artist I am not sure what point you are making. I assume that you agree with Christian theology that salvation comes by faith only, in the work of Jesus Christ, separate of you own efforts (works). Are you implying that salvation is maintained or retained (at least in part) by what we do (our works) ? If this is what you are trying to say, then this would not be a Scriptural understanding of the Christian doctrine of salvation. It appears that your understanding of soteriology may have some misconceptions. Do genuine Christians sin ? Yes. If a Christian sins will he lose his salvation ? No, not under the Gospel endorsed by Scripture, because Scripture clearly teaches salvation is by faith, not by works. If you say one loses his salvation because of his behavior then your salvation is based upon faith plus works, which is not the Christian basis of genuine salvation. The faith plus works gospel, is one of the "different gospels" mentioned in Gal. 1. Christians don't work and serve God, to become Christians (because all our good we do is not up to God's standards); we work and serve God because we are Christians. You said, "Many people want to have enough of Jesus to be saved but still have fun with the devil." This description does not fit the Biblical description of a Christian, who is a new creation in Christ where the old has passed away and he is now indwelled and sealed by the Holy Spirit. If you see someone like you described, I would assume they were not a genuine Christian. Your perception of regeneration and Spiritual grow appears to be weak. They may have enough of Jesus to be Christianized into institutional Christianity, but not enough belief in God's grace through Jesus, to be a geniune Christian. There is a very significant difference between the two. You mentioned, "We could fall away and even come into unbelief." I'm just curious; how would your statement be understood in the light of 1 John 2:19 ("They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would have continued with us. But they went out, that it might become plain that they all are not of us.") Would you agree that people could verbally profess to be Christians, fellowship regularly with Christians and externally act and look like Christians, but not be genuine Christians; just very close Christian counterfeits. They are not genuine Christians and do not have the Holy Spirit indwelling them; they have never become a new creation in Christ, but are imitation Christians; and they may be convinced in their mind, they are Christians. When they leave (fall from grace/fall away), it appears that they have fallen away from Christianity and many would describe the situation as such. This scenario certainly explains a lot of the phenomena that we see. Wish I could sit and talk with you. Many thanks for your consideration. DZ

[@theministerartist9249]

I agree that we are saved by faith and accepting Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. Sin cannot make anyone lose their salvation. Works strengthens our faith and we can show our faithfulness through works. Works itself cannot save. I am simply saying that if someone chose to deny Christ after being saved that person chose to reject Christ. Christ calls us but he does not force us to stay with Him. Anyone who repents and asks for forgiveness will receive His grace and mercy.

No one spoke more emphatically about hell then Jesus himself and those who are going there and what it takes to miss the mark.

You reference an Old Testament scripture as opposed to New Testament when Jesus fulfilled mosaic law.: so if you disagree with Alan parr then you believe sins are greater than gods atonement and promises of salvation for those who are committed to believing in Jesus? If you think Jesus is greater than our sins then case close salvation can’t be lost. That doesn’t mean you can do whatever u want becusse a saved person is convicted by Holy Spirit to refrain from doing things of the world so even though we will not be perfect we have grace whereas the people who don’t accept Christ reject his gift of salvation

[@danparks8290]

I think part of the problem that leads to the controversy is seeing our salvation as something that is already complete rather than that we are "being saved". We can't lose something that is not complete and by the same token we can't fully have it until it is complete. In fact, salvation really has to do with being "made whole" rather than an idea of being "rescued from hell". He who endures to the end will be saved. Certainly by definition the "elect" are secure and the Lord knows those who are his.

[@jeffreygerfen2784]

Again, I agree with you 100%. I would add that if a person thought he or she was saved then rejects God later in their lives, then I would have to question their salvation in the first place. But I believe rejecting God and backsliding are two different things. We can’t make the judgement of a persons salvation because we can’t see into a persons heart, their salvation or lack of salvation is between them and God.

Love you brother, but you misquoted scripture. You said, “All that the Father has given me, I will not lose one” (7:50). That’s not what the Bible says and is very misleading. The Bible clearly says that it is the WILL OF GOD that He does not lose one. Big difference. It’s also the will if God that none should perish, but that all should come to repentance; but the will of God is not always accomplished. It pains me to see this doctrine promulgated as it is. There is a great apostasy coming (2 Th 2:3, 1 Tim 4:1, Mat 24:9-13) and we should be warning believers as the Bible does (Heb 3:12, for example). Instead, many are receiving false assurance because of teachings like this.

Hal Chaffee Thank you for using Scripture to back up what I believed. It is so important as teachers of Scripture that we rightly divide the word of truth. The Scriptures are the final authority on which we base our beliefs. But if our beliefs are based on a misinterpretation of the Scripture we’ll continue to teach it incorrectly.

We see many departing from the teachings of the faith and are believing lies, but they were never OF the faith. If one truly believes eternal life is by the grace of God through faith in that grace, they would never depart. The problem with those who believe they can lose their salvation is that they don't actually put their faith in Jesus Christ. They put it in their own ability.

What about the 10 virgins parable ? They’re a representation of a Christian and they ALL fell asleep waiting for the husband (Jesus) but when they heard He was arriving (most likely the rapture) only 5 of them were wise enough to have oil in their lamps (speaking about an intimate relationship with God. Basically, your gas tank is full lol) and it lights up the way for them to go to the bedchambers. The foolish virgins asked if they could have some of the oil from the wise virgins but the wise ones were wise once more and told them that they needed to go buy some oil for themselves at the market (“pay a price” for that relationship. And I don’t mean we are saved by works. Don’t misunderstand me. But the “price” I speak about is a life of sacrament and intimacy with God in prayer and the reading of His Word). So the foolish virgins left and went to buy oil. But upon their return, the bedchambers were closed and no one else could enter (like the Noah story when the door to the boat was shut.) They knocked and the king (bridegroom) told them to go away because He knew them not ! And He also alluded to them being unclean because of the hour that they were knocking on His door. These were a representation of CHRISTIANS. I strongly believe that if you’re living a righteous life before God then you’re fine. But if you’re a Christian and you continue to sin then I’m sorry, buddy but you can’t be near God cuz He is HOLY. There’s another passage that says that we must have white clothes that is neither stained nor wrinkled (meaning our souls must be clean before Him) and there’s another verse that says that we must be holy because God is holy.

It’s been a couple days since I’ve seriously decided to have a better relationship with God so I’m going to give it some time. It would be great if you could pray for me and let me know any suggestions:)

9/17/2017 God changed my heart forever and delivered me in one night. That night He delivered me from a bad cocaine addiction, pornography, a foul tongue, alcohol addiction and even cigarettes. At night I feel and hear demonic forces in my home and over my body. I anoint my head with oil and drop to my knees and purge myself from any "willing" or "hidden" faults. Then I go to war with the Kingdom of Darkness. If you "lost" your salvation then you was a just another one of the many "false" convert. True converts by the mercy and grace of God crawled out of the snares of death, disease, destruction, desolation and damnation and once given a taste of salvation, we would rather die than to give it up and turn back to the old man like a pig goes to his slop. 2 Cor. 5:17 God Bless, Brother Zachariah Isaiah

(Romans 1:17) ............................................... Only by CONTINUING to live and walk by faith can we CONTINUE to enjoy forgiveness and cleansing that Christ bought for us (1 John 1:7-9). If we should choose to turn away from this walk of faith or even cease believing altogether we will not complete our journey and stand before Him: …21 Once you were alienated from God and were hostile in your minds because of your evil deeds. But now He has reconciled you by Christ’s physical body through death to present you holy, unblemished, and blameless IN HIS PRESENCE- 23 IF indeed you CONTINUE IN YOUR FAITH, established and firm, NOT MOVED from the hope of the GOSPEL you heard, (Colossians 1:22-23) IF introduces the condition which we must fulfill if we are to complete our journey and stand in His presence. However, God has already given us the power to do this in the Person of the Holy Spirit. ............................................... The idea that we must CONTINUE in faith is repeated in other scriptures: Take notice, therefore, of the KINDNESS and severity of God: severity to those who fell, but kindness to you, IF you CONTINUE in His kindness. Otherwise you also will be CUT OFF. (Romans 11:22) The gift of the son was a great act of KINDNESS towards us on the part of God but we must CONTINUE in that kindness or else we will be CUT OFF from it. ............................................... To be CUT OFF from the Vine means that we no longer are SHARING His life. Without His life, we wither and die and, if we meet God in that condition, we will be burned: 6 If anyone does not remain in Me, he is like a branch that is thrown away and withers.

Of how much worse punishment, do you suppose, will he be thought worthy who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, counted the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified a common thing, and insulted the Spirit of grace?

Hebrews 6:4-6 King James Version 4 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost, 5 And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come, 6 If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame. The Sin (For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins) that Hebrews is referring to is rejecting the Gospel of Salvation that is the only Sin that can not be forgiven. For rejecting Christ is the unforgivable Sin. So many times people use Hebrews wrongly to try to place people back under the law. When you hear the Gospel and accept its truth you are sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise, and are saved. Therefore you can not fall away. this verse obliterates the "You can lose you salvation argument", because first it says "IMPOSSABLE", second it says if you reject that Gospel you can not earn your way thus reiterating all the scripture that confirms security. Every time you go back to the Law you are in fact crucifying' Christ all over again ignoring John 19:28-30 King James Version 30 When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.

[@judddavis3548]

Ok, Buddy, ( good channel, I respect what you are doing) I just started watching this video and had to comment at 1:42 already ( and I will continue to watch afterward). You preface your statement of "once saved always saved" by saying; " Once you become a GENUINE follower of Jesus Christ ". THAT is where the issue begins in my humble opinion. We need to all have the same definition of what is a "Genuine follower of Christ' . 2 John in verse 8 says " 8 Look to yourselves, that we lose not those things which we have wrought, but that we receive a full reward. 9 Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son.( end) Now, with that being said. Some people's experience in being saved involved nothing more than a guy asking someone " Are you saved?" and the person says " No". "Would you like to be"? " Yes". Then say this prayer and yahoo they are saved and they give it no thought ever again. To some, that is the experience that they have based their salvation on. That person may think that they are saved, but in reality, are they? Real salvation is when I fall to my knees and submit my will to the higher authority of God, telling him that I realize that on my own I have NO chance of salvation and that I accept the Blood of Christ to cover me and my sinful nature. Some people think that the prayer is like a magic spell or that God changes sin so it is not sinful anymore, FALSE. God changes the sinner and real faith is a faith that works and creates fruit. I am really studying this hard right now. We are surely saved by faith and the grace of the Lord but we do not still just wallow in our sins, we still wallow in sin because we have a sinful nature but we do not keep sinning ON PURPOSE and expect God to be happy with that can we? God made law and the penalty for breaking it was and IS death. So now when we become Christian we can break it with no consequence? Did Christ die so I could keep on sinning? This once saved always saved doctrine is a slippery slope. Every time I pray for clarity on these issues It seems God is telling me that the law is only dead for SALVATION. I will close with this my Friend and continue with the video, in Revelation when Jesus comes back, what does He find? It says He finds a one-world government, a one-world currency, an APOSTATE one world church and a remnant.. a remnant of His true believers that " Keep the commandments of God AND the faith of Jesus!

[@truthsayer6414]

Can a Christian lose Salvation? "If I can show your Catholic doctrines are false my belief in eternal security, sola fide/scriptura, Predestination, OSAS therefore win by default." The idea that a Christian can somehow achieve both salvation and “eternal security” instantaneously from just one mental commitment by simply declaring one’s faith and repentance to the Lord, has to be a statement of eternal optimism, rather than a claim to eternal security. It is the height of arrogance defying the 75 verses that how a committed Christian can lose their salvation. These "doctrines" were unknown in the Church for the first 1500 years, before Calvin and few scholars supported them. Look at all the great theologians of the Church like Origen, Augustine, Iraneous, Lucian, Aquinas and others who were familiar with such passages but NEVER made such a dangerous inference from any Scriptural passage. There are an abundance of warnings in Scripture however, of how salvation can be lost. If grace is ALL that’s needed and salvation cant be lost these warnings are utterly nonsensical. It is a common view among protestants who believe Salvation by faith alone but only a small minority who claim eternal security. Even Luther believed that a Christian can commit apostasy or grave sin and lose salvation! There are numerous examples of Christians who have renounced their faith and lost the grace of God. Some scholars however audaciously claim, that not even apostasy can cause loss of salvation. John 15:- For those faithful attached to the True Vine, they can clearly lose salvation if they fail to produce “good fruit. When Jesus speaks in parables it is to all ages. In the following quotes below , some protestants will claim, the passages are to either a select “unsaved” audience or in general to those who were never true Christians in the first place. For your Salvation's sake, the Vine Keeper can't cut off what wasn't attached in the first place!! Paul affirms JOHN 15 that the faithful may be "CUT OFF" He writes in Romans 11 "Note then the kindness and the severity of God: severity toward those who have fallen, but God’s kindness to you, PROVIDED you continue in his kindness. Otherwise you too will be cut off." 2 Peter 2:20, NIV: "If they have escaped the corruption of the world by knowing our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and are again entangled in it and are overcome, they are worse off at the end than they were at the beginning." Clearly if you have come to know the Lord but then fall back into the evil ways of the world, you will be worse off than those who do not know Christ. Luke 15: In the parable of the Prodigal Son, the Father will never turn his back on us but knows that its nearly always thru suffering and failure that we may come to seek forgiveness. If God has orchestrated or predestined our future before we were born, why would there be so much joy over one son/sheep who was lost than 100 ungrateful angry “faithful” followers? 2 Tim 2 IF we died with him, we will also live with him; 12 IF we endure, we will also reign with him. IFwe disown him, he will also disown us Hebrews 6 4 It is impossible for those who have once been enlightened,(the author was likely an eye-witness) who have tasted the heavenly gift, (received sanctification/grace!) who have shared in the Holy Spirit, (Baptised?) 5 who have tasted the goodness of the word of God (inspired by Scripture) and the powers of the coming age 6 and who have fallen away (gravely sinned), to be brought back to repentance (state of grace). Calvinists will claim this passage refers to a specific audience of Jews or uncommitted Christians. But no one who has read and understood the implications of John and Luke 15 could make that assumption. In the light of Jesus’ parables which chronologically predate the epistle, no one familiar with them could suggest that the Hebrews text is not a conformational warning for ALL “enlightened“ Christians and those to come of what might happen if they “fall away.” Hebrews 10 The author concludes that Christianity is consequently superior to Judaism. The Christians are then warned against apostasy and the “fearful prospect of judgment” (10:27) that awaits “those who have spurned the Son of God” (10:29). They are urged to persevere in their faith following the heroic example of others well known to them. The emphasis on Christ’s priestly mediation and statements on faith and the Mosaic Law are not typical of other Pauline writings 26 If we deliberately keep on sinning after we have received the knowledge of the truth, no sacrifice for sins is left, 27 but only a fearful expectation of judgment and of raging fire that will consume the enemies of God. 28 Anyone who rejected the law of Moses died without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses. 29 How much more severely do you think someone deserves to be punished who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, who has treated as an unholy thing the blood of the covenant that sanctified them, and who has insulted the Spirit of grace? 30 For we know him who said, “It is mine to avenge; I will repay,”[d] and again, “The Lord will judge his people.”[e] it is rather tragic and sad when some Christians make the text fit their theology rather than vice versa. Such I believe is the minority view of unconditional or eternal security. I believe there are many instances that the text says salvation can be lost in the following passages: Heb 6 4 It is impossible for those who have tasted the goodness of the word of God….. to be brought back to repentance (state of grace). Heb 10 26 If we deliberately keep on sinning after we have received the knowledge of the truth, no sacrifice for sins is left, John 15 “IF you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; 10 IF you keep my commands, you will remain in my love….. IF you do not remain in me, you are like a branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned. 2 Peter 2:20, NIV: "If they have escaped the corruption of the world by knowing our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and are again entangled in it and are overcome, they are worse off at the end than they were at the beginning." Do I need to show more examples of warnings in Scripture of how salvation can be lost? No one with an openmind could read these passages and claim they refer to false or uncommitted Christians who may be tempted and fall away. Why would a born again need to pray daily for the grace of God to save us from temptation, IF only a TRUE believer has eternal security and cant fall away how can anyone belive ? Moreover, think about the Jesus CHOSE 12 disciples who all initially accepted him as true believers, but one after several years through temptation and greed chose to sell him out. Another chose to deny him three times. What does this say about loss of salvation and eternal security?. None of the great theologians of the Church like Origen, Augustine, Eranaus, Lucian, Aquinas and Luther who all knew such passages believed in unconditional salvation. Yes, some people who were never saved may fall away but one cant say all followers like Peter were never saved. See Rom 11:22 ....... also "it is the one who endures to the end who will be saved."(Matt 10:22) and "they believe for a while then in times of temptation, they fall away." Luke 8:13 Care to comment on these passages? "IF we hold fast to the Word I preach to you?" 1 Cor 3:15 Paul was clearly concerned about his followers who might return to former sinful ways that might lose them salvation, right? So may I ask are you a Calvinist who believes in eternal security? The path to salvation is a battlefield of fighting the good fight, keeping the faith and staying in the race, as Paul said to Timothy so that the reward is his. "Faith without GOOD WORKS is dead" faith! Where in the Sermon on the Mount did Jesus say "bless are those whose faith alone has saved them, for the Kingdom of God is theirs." Everything about his life and those of the disciples was about WORKS! Those who stand, stand by God's Grace, Those who fall, fall by their own freewill!

OSAS is built on a FALSE premise: the word "saved" That word is not defined correctly by OSAS clergy. In the new testament there are 2 similar words ...salvation and saved. Salvation in the GREEK is soterion which means to deliver from. Saved in the GREEK is sozo. which means to heal, to make whole. A person who believes about the death, burial and resurrection of JESUS..or accepts the gospel or JESUS , or grace or forgiveness or pardon is not healed or transformed in character just by acceptance or assent to truth. JESUS teaches ,that the meek shall inherit the Earth, the pure in heart shall see God, a person's righteousness has to exceed that of the Pharisees. Heb 12:14..one must be holy. ALSO God's forgiveness is void if one does not forgive others . MATT 6 , MATT 18 See parable of soils and.....the word "IF" in the bible!!!!! THEN….. look at 1 COR 9:27 where PAUL , of ALL people, does not have eternal security. He explains in the next chapter. Then there is JUDE, 2 PET 2, Heb 6 & 10 OSAS is for the deceived bible ignorant.

Hi Allen, I will reply to this, as you asked - with a scripture. I think it speaks well enough for itself: "For it is impossible to BRING BACK TO REPENTANCE (Meaning there has been one previously), those who were once enlightened - those who have experienced the good things of heaven and shared in the Holy Spirit, who have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the power of the age to come - and who THEN TURN AWAY from God. It is impossible to bring such people back to repentance; by rejecting the Son of God, they themselves are nailing him to the cross once again and holding him to public shame. When the ground soaks up the falling rain and bears a good crop for the farmer, it has God's blessing. But if a field bears thorns and thistles, it is useless. The farmer will soon condemn that field and burn it." Hebrews 6:4-8

Yes, it is biblical. There's lot's of evidence that we can't lose our salvation. Jesus said in John 5:24, "Truly truly I say to you, whoever hears my word and believes him who has sent me has eternal life and will not be judged but has crossed from death to life." That is exactly what salvation is, the process of crossing from spiritual death to spiritual life. That transaction cannot be undone, hence we cannot lose it. In Romans 6, Paul assures Christians that they have dies to sin of being "in Adam". This does not mean we have died to sinning. We all know that. He mentions this 11 times in Romans 6 in the following verses back to back, 6:2, "we died to sin." 6:6, "so that the body of sin would rendered powerless." 6:7, "no longer a slave to sin." 6:7, "we died to sin." 6:11, "count yourselves dead to sin." 6:14, "for sin shall not be your master." 6:17, "you used to be slaves to sin." 6:18, "you have bee set free from sin." 6:20, when you were slaves to sin." 6:22, "you have been set free from sin." 8:2, "you have been set free from the law of sin and death." There verses should seal the deal for a born-again Christian. Will you ever be an unbeliever again? Wil Jesus Christ ever leave you? Absolutely not! You have received the very life of Jesus Christ and have been marked by the holy spirit (Ephesians 1:13). Here are more verses to prove you can't lose salvation: Hebrews 6:18, 7:25, 13:5 Ephesians 1:13-14, 2:8 John 3:16, 5:24, 6:37-40, 10:28-29, 11:25-26 1 Peter 1:4-5 2 Timothy 2:13 Titus 1:2 Romans 8:35-39 To further help Christians know that they can't lose salvation, it's important to ask the question, "Why did Jesus take away our sins?" And yes, he did die to take our sins, but there's a second reason why Jesus died on the cross: So that the spirit of God would never leave we once we are saved. That is how the cross and resurrection go together. And that, my friends, is why once saved, always saved is true and biblical. God bless you all.

Orthodox/Catholics argue that works is required to maintain salvation (and that it is possible to lose salvation). The general consensus among believers is that salvation is a free gift by the grace and mercy of God, and that none of us are good enough to deserve such gift regardless of how many good works we do. Yet, once we have received the wonderful gift of salvation by trusting in Jesus as our Lord and Savior, all of a sudden we're now good enough somehow to maintain this gift through good works? Something we weren't even good enough to deserve it in the first place?

[@jimkraft9445]

Why so many believe they are saved by what they do instead of what Jesus has done for us. Romans 11:6 It is all grace, not works, if it was by works, then it would not longer be grace, and if by grace, it is no more work. You can not mix law/works with grace. If you add one thing a person has to do to be saved, then it is all works and no grace. And no one can save themselves. We can only be saved. Romans 4:5-8 But to him that worketh not, but believeth on Him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness. People who believe you can lose your salvation are trusting in their works, and not Jesus Finished work on the cross. They have never done the will of His Father. Matthew 7:21-23 Many will come to me on that day and call me Lord, and tell me about all their good works. Jesus says, Depart from me ye that work iniquity, I never knew you. Jesus tells us in verse 21 why these people believed they were saved, but they were lost.. They never did the will of His Father. What is the will of His Father? John 6:40 And this is the will of Him who sent me, that ALL that seeth the Son, and believeth on Him, may have everlasting life, and I will raise him up on the last day. Salvation by works never works. We can only be saved by faith alone in Christ alone plus nothing. No works. Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but the GIFT of God is eternal life, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Free gift. No works. Ephesians 2:8-9 For by grace ye are saved, through FAITH, and that not of yourselves, (we did nothing for it) it is the GIFT of God, NOT OF WORKS, lest any man should boast. Those boasters that told Jesus about all their good works, never said one thing about Him dying and paying their sin debt in full so that they would not have to go to hell to pay for their sins. They never believed Jesus paid it all and we paid 0. They never trusted in His AMAZING GRACE, they trusted in their own works to save themselves. Not what Jesus did for us. John 6:29 Jesus, answered, and said unto them, this is the work of God, that ye BELIEVE ON THE ONE HE HAS SENT. AMAZING GRACE, JESUS PAID IT ALL AND WE PAID 0. IT IS FREE, or not at all. Good works are fine, they just can not justify a sinner. Keeping Gods laws is good, it just can not save us. John 6:47 Verily, verily, I say unto you, he that believeth on me HATH EVERLASTING LIFE. No works, FREE GIFT. Our sin debt is paid in full and we can never be condemned again. John 3:18 Those that believe you can lose your salvation are trusting in what they do to save themselves and are not saved.

I once used to believe in "Eternal security" or the "once saved always saved" doctrine, but the more I studied the scriptures the more i realised this wasn't the case, I realised how difficult it was to continue holding on to that doctrine, I do believe that a Christian can lose his/her salvation through apostasy and I think that worldliness and continual sin can eventually cause a Christian to turn their back on God and that's what I believe Paul refers to when talking about the "falling away" in Hebrews 6:6 and what Peter talks about in 2 Peter 2:20-22, we have been clearly warned in scriptures about this matter.

[@billlee2194]

Yes, I agree. You have the correct understanding. Salvation is something we must strive to hold on to daily by freewill cooperation with the grace of God won for us by the finished work of Jesus. Jesus' passion does not remove our freewill after we come to know Him like some teach. That's why Paul states 'work out your salvation in fear and trembling'. OSAS is a dangerous theology and lulls many into thinking the blood of Jesus will simply cover their sins. Some simply are taught to ignore the warning verses or to attribute them to others but not to themselves.

A good way to think about this is that when we are unsaved we are bobbing up and down, treading water in a big ocean. Jesus rescues us and takes us out of the ocean and puts us on a boat.

You can research the shroud of turin that is a miraculous relique, or the picture of our Lady of Guadalupe that can not be of human origin either. Also, the eucharistic miracle of Lanciano was investigated scientificaly and baffles modern understanding. Jesus said to his disciples to eat his flesh snd drink his blood at the last supper, and to do it again in remembrance. He said that the bread is really his flesh, literally. Therefore the catholic priest consecrates the host in the eucharist, that it my in a mystic sense repeat the sacrifice of Jesus. And throzghout history hundreds of eucharist miracles are recorded and explored. The results are the same: the flesh is always that of an around 30-year old man, blood-Group AB, the cells are not cut and keep preserved thrpughout centuries which is actually "impossible". In 1917, in Fatima, 70 000 people witnessed the sun wonder, an atmospheric wonder, because oft the Holy Mother Mary, who gave messages to three children there, prophecies about the second world war, the spread of communism, the great apostasy (the greater part of the church authority lost faith, in fact), liturgical changes after 1960 ect. ("Fatima Crusaders", "The Remnant") If there is a rightousness that is also inscribed into our conscious, it must have reason. Every sin, according to the faith, is an offense to the Infinite Good, God, who created man out of His love that he might love him in return, see what is good and do it, and avoid evil. All that happens, our deeds included, have consequences. According to Jesus, hell is the consequence of unrepented sin. Many things point to the traditional catholic Church. Luther revolted out of personal reasons: he was unable to cope with his own sin. Hete sone quotes of Luther who "invented" the protestant ideas that this KZbinr uses: Christ taught: "If you wilt enter into life, keep the commandments. " Matt 19:17 Luther in speaking of the commandments teaches: "Their only purpose is to show man his impotence to do good and to teach him to despair of himself." Denifle`s Luther and Lutheranism, Volume lll "It does not matter what people do; it only matters what they believe." Erlangen Vol. 29, Pg. 126 "If we allow them - the commandments - any influence in our conscience, they become a cloak of all evil, heresies and blasphemies." Comm. ad Galat, p. 310 Christ taught: "Be therefore wise as serpents and simple as doves." Matt 10:16 "You know than how to discern the face of the sky, and you can not know the signs of the times?" (Matt 26:3) Luther teaches: "No good work happens as the result of one`s own wisdom; nur everything must happen in a stupor... Reason must be left behind for it is the enemy of faith. " Tischreden, Weimer Vl, 143, 25-35 "Reason is the devils handmaid and does and does nothing but blaspheme and dishonor all that God says or does." Against The Heavenly Prophets, On Images And Sacraments "Reason is directed opposed to faith, and one ought to let it be; in believers it should killed and buried." Erlangen, Vol 44 "A person that is baptized cannot, thou he would, lose his salvation by any sins however grieveous, unless je refuses to believe. For no sins can damn him but unbelief alone." The Babylonian captivity. It's worth mentioning on this point that Luther himself had early written: "Pray for me I am falling into the abyss of sin." - Enders, Vol 3, Pg. 193 "Be a sinner, and let your sins we strong, but let your trust in Jesus be stronger, and rejoice in Christ who is the victor over sin, death and the world. We will commit sins while we are here, for this place is not where justice resides... No sin can separate us from him, even if we were to kill or commit adultery thousands of times each day." 'Let your sins be strong' from 'The Wittenberg Project', 'The Wartburg Segment', translated by Erika Flores, from Dr. Martin Luther`s Sämmtliche Schriften, Letter No. 99,1 Aug. 1521 - Also Denifle`s Luther and Lutheranism "Do not ask anything of your conscience, and if it speaks, no not listen to it; if it insists, stifle it, amuse yourself; if necessary, commit some good big sin, in order to drive it away. Conscience is the voice of Satan, and it is necessary always to do just the contrary of what Satan wishes." J. Dollinger Christ taught: " Let your light shine bevor men, that they may see your good works and glorify your father who is in haeven." Matt 5:16 There are also many warnings in scripture that warns against falling away from salvation. (Gal 4:9, Col 1:23, Tim 1:19, 4:1, Heb 3:12-14, 12:14-15, 2 Peter 2:20-21, Apoc 2:4-5) Christ taught (in the words of St. James) "What shall it profit, my brethren, if a he has faith, but has no works? Shall faith be able to save him? So faith also, if it has not works, us dead in itself." James 2:14-17 Luther: "It is better to guard against good works than against sin." Trischreden, Wittenberg Edition, Vol. Vl., p 160 "God works are bad and are sin like the rest." Denifle`s Luther and Lutheranism Vol. Ill "There is no scandal greater more dangerous, more venomous, than a good outward life, manifested by good works and a pious mode of life. That is the grand portal, the highway that leads to damnation." Denifle "He that says the Gospel requires works for salvation, I say, flat and plain, is a liar." Tischreden, P. 137 Christ taught: "Blessed are they that hunger and thirst after justice: for they shall have their fill." Luther teaches: "Peasants are no better than straw. They will not hear the word and they are without sense; therefore they must be compelled to hear the crack of the whip and the whiz of the bullets and it is only what they deserve."

[@theLuminaryAI]

@@lightninlad James 2:24 James 2:24 You see that a person is considered righteous by what they do and not by faith alone. James continues to make the case that those who truly trust in God naturally end up participating in good works. As James showed in prior verses, no one can be saved by good works. Works are not required for salvation-they are a "symptom" of saving faith. In verse 22, he used the Greek word eteleiōthē to explain good works as the "completion," or the natural end result, of saving faith. James is urgently making the case that all those who are saved through faith by God's grace will participate in good works. It is in that spirit that James writes that a person is "justified" by works and not by faith alone. In verse 21, James used the concept of "justification," which some see as a contradiction to Paul's use of "justification" in passages such as Romans 4. Here, it is common for a reader to assume a contradiction with Romans 3:28: "For we hold that one is justified by faith apart from works of the law." It's important to remember two things, however. First, James is not claiming works are required for salvation. His entire argument has been about what kind of faith actually saves. He is on the attack against the attitude that one can be saved by a faith that has no works. He has stated repeatedly that such a faith is dead, useless. He is not saying that faith is not the means through which we receive God's grace; he is saying that a so-called-"faith" which results in no actions is not a genuine faith. A "works-less" faith cannot justify anyone. The other thing that is important to remember is this: James has been consistent in upholding faith as necessary for salvation. This includes his quote in verse 23 that Abraham was counted as righteous for believing God. Context is the key to all Bible study, and especially for resolving apparent contradictions. In Paul's writings, it is clear he is describing "justification" in the sense of salvation: being declared righteous by God. James, according to this context, is referring to "justification" in the sense of proof for human beings. Faith saves, says James, but "saving faith" cannot be a mere intellectual opinion, which produces no resulting actions. God bless

Brother Allen, I agree with most of your teaching. In fact, you are doing a GREAT work in these last days that you MUST continue with all due diligence. NO sin can sever us from Christ - He paid for it all on Calvary's cruel cross. Notwithstanding, God will NEVER override man's free will. If, like Judas, we believe in and follow Christ and later turn away, He will honor our decision to apostatize. It's not a matter of sin, rather free will and choice. Hebrews 6:4-8 makes that abundantly clear. The word for "fall away" in verse 6:6 is PARAPIPTO, meaning to knowingly turn away and reject/return the free gift of salvation that we once embraced. You can never LOSE your salvation - however you CAN premeditatedly walk away. Keep up your critical ministry! And God bless and guide you in all things.

I am warning you, as I warned you before: those who do such things will not inherit the kingdom of God." Hebrews 10:26-27: "For if we willfully persist in sin after having received the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, but a fearful prospect of judgment, and a fury of fire that will consume the adversaries." Hebrews 6:4-6: "Since therefore it remains open for some to enter it, and those who formerly received the good news failed to enter because of disobedience, again he sets a certain day- 'today' ..." 2 Peter 2:20-22: "For if, after they have escaped the defilements of the world through the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them and overpowered, the last state has become worse for them than the first. For it would have been better for them never to have known the way of righteousness than, after knowing it, to turn back from the holy commandment that was passed on to them." Romans 11:22: "Note then the kindness and the severity of God: severity toward those who have fallen, but God’s kindness toward you, provided you continue in his kindness; otherwise you also will be cut off." 1 Corinthians 9-10: "Do not be deceived! Fornicators, idolaters, adulterers, male prostitutes, sodomites, thieves, the greedy, drunkards, revilers, robbers-none of these will inherit the kingdom of God." Galatians 6:7: "Do not be deceived; God is not mocked, for you reap whatever you sow." Mathew 25:44-46: "Then they also will answer, ‘Lord, when was it that we saw you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not take care of you?’ Then he will answer them, ‘Truly I tell you, just as you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to me.’ And these will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.'" Mathew 7:22-23: "On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many deeds of power in your name?’ Then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; go away from me, you evildoers.’" Mark 10:17-19: "'Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?' Jesus said to him, 'Why do you call me good? No one is good but God alone. You know the commandments: ‘You shall not murder; You shall not commit adultery; You shall not steal; You shall not bear false witness; You shall not defraud; Honor your father and mother.’” Mathew 6:14-15: "For if you forgive others their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you; but if you do not forgive others, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses." 1 John 3:15: "All who hate a brother or sister are murderers, and you know that murderers do not have eternal life abiding in them."

He said, “Leave at once for the important city, Nineveh. Announce to the people that I can no longer overlook the wicked things they have done.” Jonah immediately tried to run away from the Lord by going to Tarshish.

It says, “My son, do not make light of the Lord’s discipline, and do not lose heart(B) when he rebukes you, 6 because the Lord disciplines the one he loves,(C) and he chastens everyone he accepts as his son.” 7 Endure hardship as discipline; God is treating you as his children.(E) For what children are not disciplined by their father? 8 If you are not disciplined-and everyone undergoes discipline(F)-then you are not legitimate, not true sons and daughters at all. 9 Moreover, we have all had human fathers who disciplined us and we respected them for it. How much more should we submit to the Father of spirits(G) and live!(H) 10 They disciplined us for a little while as they thought best; but God disciplines us for our good, in order that we may share in his holiness.(I) 11 No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace(J) for those who have been trained by it. Ephesians 2:8-9 New International Version 8 For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith-and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God- 9 not by works, so that no one can boast.

Few false doctrines are more dangerous than the Calvinistic assertion of “eternal security” or “once saved, always saved.” Sadly, this dangerous doctrine flatly contradicts Scripture, and it is commonly used as a smokescreen to justify sinful lifestyles. In other words, “once saved, always saved” appeals to the most carnal leanings of our humanity. It gives false legitimacy for sin, false comfort to sinners, and builds a pseudo-biblical barrier between countless sinners and repentance. Let’s put it this way; nothing can force you to separate yourself from God except you. Satan can’t make you do it any more than he made Eve do it. Eve exercised her free will. Adam exercised his free will. And they both suffered the consequences of their actions. Sin separates us from a right relationship with God, but it does not remove us from the love of God. For example, “…(Romans 5:8).” God loves us even while we are in sin, but to say the cross made sin acceptable is to undermine the cross’s necessity in the first place completely. The phrasing shows Paul’s assumption that believers would naturally understand sinful lifestyles must be discarded after salvation. Furthermore, the apostle Peter calls us to follow in the footsteps of Jesus, (1 Peter 2:21-22).” A few verses down, he underscores that Jesus “(1 Peter 2:24-25).” "...Go and sin NO MORE" (Jesus) James 4:4 You adulterous people, don’t you know that friendship with the world means enmity against God? Therefore, anyone who chooses to be a friend of the world becomes an enemy of God. Wrong understanding of Grace: "Grace gives you the freedom to sin." Right understanding of Grace: "Grace gives you the power NOT to sin." We don’t do good works to become saved, we do good works because we are saved. OSAS is not Biblical. Please study your Bibles vs listen to man.

I'd say that yes, once you are saved you are always saved. If, for instance, you continue to live a life of sin (and that of course, is only between you and God, yet can be highlighted by others in love), then I would say that possibility you were never saved to begin with. But even then, we are led into the dangerous territory of, ok so what is the bar? So if someone tells white lies as a 'Christian' and someone else is found to be continually cheating on their spouse as a 'Christian', then who is 'going to heaven'? By our standards, more likely the first person. By God's standards, none of them except if by Jesus which covers all sin, although yes we should still run from it. I pray that makes sense.

[@abideintheWord]

@@connorkilby4598 there is a way that seems right to a man, but it’s end is death. It sounds right to our flesh to say that person must not have ever been saved. Unfortunately it’s just not what the Bible says. The Bible says that someone who is truly saved and forgiven can in fact lose their salvation. Jesus taught this in Matthew 18:23-35 when he tells the story of a guy who was forgiven of all of his debt but because he refused to forgiven his fellow servant then all of his forgiveness was revoked. Then Jesus said to his disciples this would happen to them as well if they didn’t obey Him. Check it out and come out of your deception.

[@jafethuerta]

@@abideintheWord We find the Parable of the Unforgiving Servant only in Matthew 18:23-35. The Apostle Peter had asked how many times one should forgive, "Till seven times?" and Jesus answered, "Not seven times but seventy times seven" (Matthew 18:21-22). The context of this passage is Jesus teaching His disciples about the "kingdom of heaven." We can take some very important principles from this parable and apply them to our lives today. The servant whose lord forgave him much, ten thousand talents, equivalent to several millions of dollars, was unwilling to forgive another servant who owed him a hundred denarii. A denarius was a day’s wage and was worth approximately sixteen cents. Therefore, compared to what the first servant was forgiven, this was a very small amount. The principle here is, "the one forgiven much should forgive much." In other words, the principle of forgiveness is that grace or forgiveness to another is without limit. The disciples are not to count the number of times they forgive. Rather, as the parable teaches, they are to forgive much because God has forgiven much. In the Parable of the Unforgiving Servant, Jesus is presenting a new principle that is similar to the basis of the forgiveness command for believers found in Ephesians 4:32, "And be ye kind to one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you." Jesus is teaching His disciples pre-cross, and therefore in the pre-church age, but the basis for forgiveness is the same. Because God has forgiven us, we are to forgive each other. Therefore, because we have received much grace, "while we were yet sinners Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8), we are commanded to give that same grace to others. In the Parable of the Unforgiving Servant, the first servant’s debt was forgiven, and he was not required to repay until his unforgiving nature was discovered. In contrast, our sin debt was paid in full by Christ and is the only basis for God’s forgiveness. We cannot repay our debt to God or earn our salvation. It is a gift of grace (Ephesians 2:8-9). Therefore, in the Parable of the Unforgiving / Unmerciful / Unjust Servant, Jesus is teaching His disciples, and us by extension, that forgiveness should be in like proportion to the amount forgiven. The first servant had been forgiven all, and he then should have forgiven all. In like manner, a child of God by faith through Christ has had all sins forgiven. Therefore, when someone offends or sins against us we should be willing to forgive him from a heart of gratitude for the grace to which we ourselves are debtors. So, yeah... once your saved.... your always saved. Stop preaching add-ons to salvation 😉

Sin is a condition of the heart; not of actions. A sinful heart leads to sinful action. It is willing rebellion against God. Saying it's 5:00 when it is 4:58 is not a sin. That is straining at nats and swallowing camels. And it matters not what people think or believe, it matters what the Word of God says. The truth is not determined by what we believe. There is plenty of scripture pointing to the fact that a person can give away their relationship with God and be damned.

[@JimiSurvivor]

cheron buchanon a. "I believe someone thinking they can lose salvation is very prideful and self-righteous, we are saved because of what God did We are not saved by what we do This is interesting since EVERY orthodox teacher, apologist, author, and theologian for the first 1600 years (back to the First Century) taught that Christians could fall away from the faith. Even Augustine and Luther did not believe in OSAS as it is currently taught. Are all of these people throughout history "prideful and self-righteous" Because they did not teach OSAS. Conversely is EVERYONE who teaches OSAS humble and self-effacing? Surely you are not going to make that generalization. b. "If you are a true believer sealed and regenerated by the Holy Spirit you can't lose salvation God will continue the work he started in you" Although you did not cite any scripture this seems to come from Philippians 1:6: "being confident of this, that He who began a good work in you will continue to perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus." If you read this scripture in the context you will see that Paul was not saying that the work God begins in EVERY believer INEVITABLY continue and reach completion. What he said was he was CONFIDENT (or PERSUADED) that it would in the case of the Philippians. Paul went on to give REASONS this belief and none of it had anything to do with a belief in OSAS. In part, his confidence was based upon the Philippian's active long-term partnership with him in the ministry of the gospel "...always making the supplication with joy in my every supplication for all of you, for your PARTNERSHIP in the GOSPEL from the first day UNTIL NOW, He had other reasons as well: "Accordingly, it is right for me to feel this about all of you since I have you in the heart. Both in my chains and in the DEFENCE and CONFIRMATION of the gospel, you all are fellow PARTAKERS OF GRACE with me. (Philippians 1:4-7) c. It looks to me like the Philippians were very well grounded in truth and grace. This is the reason for Paul's confidence that they would continue on in the Faith. He says nothing about a belief that they would continue because of OSAS? If THAT had been the real reason for his confidence then would he have not said so in the passage? Also if OSAS had been the basis for his belief that "the work that had begun in them would continue until the Day of Christ Jesus" then he would have had the same confidence for ALL the believers under his care but he was NOT at all CONFIDENT about whether the Galatians would continue in the faith: "But now, having known God, but rather having been known by God, how do you TURN AGAIN to the weak and destitute principles, to which you desire to be ENSLAVED again anew? 10 You observe days and months and seasons and years. 11 I fear for you, lest perhaps I have toiled for you IN VAIN. (Galatians 4:9-11) If Pauls "labors" had saved the Galatians from damnation and brought them into onto a path that would lead them UNCONDITIONALLY into eternal joy I hardly see how could say his work was "in VAIN." On the other hand, if they were turning backward I could easily see how he would be concerned. Being "enslaved AGAIN" is the inverse from being freed from slavery through salvation. d. "We are not saved by what we do" If by "works" you mean meritorious works of the LAW (like circumcision, eating kosher, keeping feast days) then I agree because these are not required under the New Covenant. It is to this KIND of ACTION that Paul is referring when he contrasts "works" and faith in the work of salvation. However, when James, speaks of WORKS he does not mean this kind of action. Instead, he means "acts of obedience" The word of faith cannot save us unless it is accompanied by an obedient response of the will.

Yep, but silly man tries to pollute that by saying we can voluntarily leave God. When He says nothing can pluck us from Him, that also means that we, ourselves, cannot pluck ourselves from Him.

Repent and do the things you did at first. If you do not repent, I will come to you and remove your lampstand from its place." God addressing the churches in Revelation...how could their lampstand be removed if it was once saved always saved? "But suppose that servant is wicked and says to himself, ‘My master is staying away a long time,’ and he then begins to beat his fellow servants and to eat and drink with drunkards. The master of that servant will come on a day when he does not expect him and at an hour he is not aware of. He will cut him to pieces and assign him a place with the hypocrites, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth" Why would Christ himself say, if that servant chooses to behave wickedly he'll be cast to hell, if its once saved always saved? "Then you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and you will be hated by all nations because of me.

[@BrotherTris]

I hope the scriptures are self explanatory, but I have also including comments on many of them for clarity's sake. Please read them carefully: 1 Corinthians 9:27 "But I discipline my body and keep it under control, lest after preaching to others I myself should be disqualified." If Paul, the greatest Christian to have ever lived (probably), should confess that it was possible for him to be 'disqualified' from the race, whilst having the strong 'belief' that he did, how much more should we be careful to watch our own steps in regard to holiness and disciplining ourselves? To me, this is a key verse against OSAS because he wouldn't mention the possibility of 'disqualification' at all otherwise. Romans 11:19-22 "Then you will say, “Branches were broken off so that I might be grafted in.” That is true. They were broken off because of their unbelief, but you stand fast through faith. So do not become proud, but fear. For if God did not spare the natural branches, neither will he spare you. Note then the kindness and the severity of God: severity toward those who have fallen, but God's kindness to you, provided you continue in his kindness. Otherwise you too will be cut off." Paul is comparing the severity of judgement of the Jews to our own possible judgement, should we not be walking with Him. It means that someone who is 'grafted in' to the tree (gentiles into God's kingdom) can also be cut out of it again. This is clear teaching against OSAS. Hebrews 6:4-6 "For it is impossible, in the case of those who have once been enlightened, who have tasted the heavenly gift, and have shared in the Holy Spirit, and have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the powers of the age to come, and then have fallen away, to restore them again to repentance, since they are crucifying once again the Son of God to their own harm and holding him up to contempt." Self explanatory, I think. someone who has 'tasted the heavenly gift' is someone who has been born again, yet the author is remarking that to truly 'fall away' is to 'crucify Jesus again' and hold Him up to public shame, in contempt, and that this is possible for someone who has been born again. It suggests that it is indeed possible to lose salvation, and that salvation must be guarded closely by those that have received it, to run the race and finish it well. Hebrews 10:26 "For if we go on sinning deliberately after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins." Matthew 7:21-23 “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’" How many so called Christians believe they are saved, when in fact they work iniquity? You might say that anyone with belief WILL be saved, and that anyone who teaches that this is not true is a false prophet/teacher/pastor etc. Well, Jesus Christ is telling you different here, I'm afraid. People don't cast out demons or heal in His name without SOME belief in His power, and believing Him to be real. Yet, it is iniquity that prevents them from truly knowing Him. I understand that it can be argued that they were never 'saved' in the first place, but only a belief saving you is still under fire from this verse, because it's simply not true. You can quote other scriptures to back your points, but without the balance of scripture, you only have half the story, and it makes this OSAS doctrine you're preaching false. Matthew 10:22 "And you will be hated by all for my name's sake. But the one who endures to the end will be saved." 1 Timothy 4:1 "Now the Spirit expressly says that in later times some will depart from the faith by devoting themselves to deceitful spirits and teachings of demons" I put these 2 together because they are related; one must 'endure to the end to be saved', because in the end days people will depart from the faith and fall into error. I pray this doesn't happen to anyone I know, but there it is... believers CAN fall away and be seduced by the devil, and you can bet that they will not be saved in the end because of that. 1 Corinthians 15:1-2 "Now I would remind you, brothers, of the gospel I preached to you, which you received, in which you stand, and by which you are being saved, if you hold fast to the word I preached to you-unless you believed in vain." It is possible to believe in vain. Grace alone does not save us, we need faith... and faith without works is dead. How many people calling themselves true believers are producing the works of the Holy Spirit in their lives? Less than you might think, is my opinion. We must 'hold fast' to every aspect of the gospel, and tremble in fear that people we know and love might not make it... we must 'work out our salvation with fear and trembling' Ezekiel 18:24 But when a righteous person turns away from his righteousness and does injustice and does the same abominations that the wicked person does, shall he live? None of the righteous deeds that he has done shall be remembered; for the treachery of which he is guilty and the sin he has committed, for them he shall die. Finally, this scripture from the OT tells us that a righteous man who turns to wickedness will not find grace; he will die. The flipside is that an unrighteous man who turns to righteousness can be saved - and that's the good news for all of us.

Do not misinterpret "work out your own salvation." This means to let it come out of you, not that you can keep salvation by works. The very next verse says, "For it is God that causes you to will and to do His good pleasure.":It is not by your own works, but the Holy Spirit in you that gives you the will to do what God desires.

V 5 says "He saved the people out of Egypt and afterward destroyed them that believed not (continued not, I Cor 10:1-10)". We know He only saved Joshua and Caleb (but saved ALL the others). Thru rebellion they backslid and were all destroyed. I Cor 10:21 "you cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of devil's", same chapter, same topic, diff example. V 6 The angels IN heaven (without a sin nature) rejected God, followed Lucifer, now Satan, and He condemned them to hell. V 7 Sodom GIVING THEMSELVES OVER ... you know that story. Jude clearly is making the case we can backslide and turn the grace of God into lasciviousness (v 4, depravity, sexual sin extremes). They are TWICE DEAD, whose fruit withers, without fruit, plucked up by the root (v 12). Jesus CAN keep us, and will but not against our will. This is why "snatch" is the key there. We cannot snatch ourselves. He didn't say we cannot NOT MOVE ourselves because we can do what we want. Snatch is from outside. This is why He keeps our steps, guides our way, preserves the Word forever. Stay in it and you are preserved. Sin, if repented of, is forgotten and removed. Jesus told Peter (an apostle, saved) in John 13:8 "if I wash thee not, thou has no part with me". That is extreme and complete. I don't think Jesus was exaggerating to make His point. And in Rev 21:7-8 "he that overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be his God, and he shall be my son. But the fearful, unbelieving, .... and all liars will have their part in the lake of fire". I don't think he's just saying "sinners" there. 8 follows 7 and we must overcome. Every church (Rev ch 2-3) was told that. Some were told He would take their candle out if they did not return to their first love, Him. They started right and turned away. Peace brother.

@@redfaux74 also..you said we stay saved by trusting in Christ..that sounds like you're trusting on your will and works to keep you saved..if we couldn't earn salvation.then we definately cant keep it..only he can..and he said so himself in John 6:39.

[@redfaux74]

@@thehourifirstbelieved3655 - Please read my comment first. I've read Romans over 50 times. It won't change. Why did the angels in heaven (before Earth was created) sin and God used that to warn us? They didn't have a sin nature yet God warns US not to sin in the New Testament? Using them as an example for us?

Read the whole chapter. Salvation is a free gift of God in Jesus Christ! kzbin.info/www/bejne/aYLIY5yHepd8o7M

[@CAsnowman]

And that would reinforce the idea of the perseverance of the saints which Alan mentions in the video. Just saying I don’t think that verse disproves OSAS at all, God bless my brother in Christ

[@NickHawaii]

@@CAsnowman Many think all is needed is just believe. The demons “believe” and shudder. Endurance and obedience is necessary. Not optional. 👍🏼

[@CAsnowman]

@@NickHawaii right, but demons cannot put their faith and trust in Jesus even if they intellectually know he is real. Works are good and will follow believers with genuine saving faith but it’s not what saves you or keeps you saved, put your whole trust in what Jesus did, not trusting your ability to obey him. There’s a difference between discipleship and sanctification, and salvation. We need to rightly divide the word of truth.

[@NickHawaii]

@@CAsnowman Absolutely! Our own works don’t save us but it’s a dead faith if we don’t show we have works, proof of love. And true demons “believe” God exists but don’t have the kind of faith needed by his servants. One thing for sure. We can lose our salvation if we practice what God condemns. No doubt about that. We can be in a saved condition now but can lose it if not careful and there are warnings about that in scripture as we know.

Your videos are great. But Im not sure why you said that the bible does not teach that God does not send people to hell. Luke 12:5 "But I will show you whom you should fear: Fear him who, after your body has been killed, has authority to throw you into hell. Yes, I tell you, fear him"

[@hello855]

How exactly does he not teach about hell???

[@kittyhylbert5283]

Hi, I think what he is saying is that God have us Jesus as a way out of hell. God gives us the chance to choose. God creates every person to be his own. We send ourselves to hell by not choosing Jesus.

[@hellbillyoutlaw8719]

Hell is the grave its was never in greek hebrew stop spreading the nonsense around.

@@hellbillyoutlaw8719 Revelation 21:8 "As for the cowardly, the faithless, the polluted, the murderers, the fornicators, the sorcerers, the idolaters, and all liars, their place will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death." The first death is the grave. The second is the lake of fire.

[@beautifulsoulsbystayeshay8003]

We can break our covenant with God as I did it in year 2020 when I became very interested in the occult and started practicing pagan/occult things. Although the Holy Spirit eventually stepped in to warn me in many ways, if I decided to ignore the Holy Spirit I would have lost my inheritance. See I had to ask for repentance and except Jesus back into my life otherwise I would have been working for the devil. We cannot serve two masters as the Bible says. Therefore, you can lose your salvation.

[@JesusUpliftsAll]

You just posted that the Holy Spirit saved you. Negating everything you said.

[@Daniel-go4jr]

@Jesus is My Greatest Friend Thank you! That's exactly it! Sin isn't ok, and if we keep sinning in spite of "being saved" there will be consequences. So if the Holy Spirit is truly in us we will wrestle with our sin, try and figure our what our sins are, where we fall short. If we're convicted we'll truly repent. The Lord can miraculously remove our sin but I think sometimes some of it is left for us to wrestle with, because He uses the fight as a tool to sanctify us. But we are supposed to engage. We have to wage war with our flesh. But the conviction to do so is itself a gift of grace, and not everyone does it, because not everyone professing to be saved is truly saved, and not everyone is on the same place on their path of sanctification, and a lot of reasons. But we're supposed to help each other with the fight, and point out dangers and blind spots to each other. All part of our incredible Sovereign God's plan for us.

[@tracyleonard7910]

Which or how many sins does it take to lose an eternal salvation? Answer: Jesus on the cross took All the future sins not just particular sins. 🙏

[@phinehoshi]

I believe we can lose our salvation like Judas. He is close to Jesus as one of the apostles and in the end, he turned away from Jesus and committed suicide without salvation.

[@BrotherDuncanGM]

[@andrewhundeby]

Hebrews 1:26 - "For if we go on sinning willfully after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, but a terrifying expectation of judgment and the fury of a fire which will consume the adversaries." Can you lose your salvation through willful sin... yes.

[@lightninlad]

Andrew Hundeby Yup. The OSAS crowd will do all kinds of verbal gymnastics not to acknowledge that verse but no matter how hard they try, there’s no getting around it.

[@demeatrialawhorn5220]

Andrew Hundeby, thank you! AMEN!

[@iicecourt00]

Andrew Hundeby You want me to explain this verse? I can explain what it means

[@estebanblanco2001]

It just means God will punish you, it doesn't mean he will send you to hell

[@all_mine1233]

No, they won't lose salvation. They will just be disciplined.

[@SeeYouNtheRealms817]

This is dangerous for those that “receive”it as a pass to sin…and then engage in a cycle of repentance as a belief.
