Is Once Saved Always Saved Biblical?

[@awalkthroughtorah6897]

I think we need to stop trying to aim for the bare minimum for Jesus, and start walking in a way that draws nearer to Jesus every choice we make.

[@nicholas3354]

Mindy, why do you say such a thing? It seems clear that you already aim for the truest because Christ is drawing you toward Him. You say "we", "stop", and "start". Believing what is true is the key. Speaking what is true is to offer Light. It's good to rejoice and be glad because Christ is our Good Shepherd. This may sound knit-picky, but "every choice we make" is to knit-pick. Also, Truth is sharper than any two-edged sword, and sharp is precise. I agree that we need to not aim for the bare minimum, but we cannot stop such if we have already been stopped from such by Christ. I agree that we should draw nearer to Him in every choice, but we can't start such if Christ has already started us on such. There is much talk of how not good enough we are, much warning. But we have been given eternal life. For many the time for warning is past and the time for encouragement is now. We will not be that nor do that which we do not believe. We are saved; let us encourage this belief so we will be and do as the saved shall be and do. I hope this encourages you, and I look forward to checking out your videos. Much love to you Mindy. Peace is yours in Yeshua Christ.

[@dennishagans6339]

A walk that draws closer to Jesus means you are walking further away from the world. as I have drawn closer to Him, I have laid aside more weights that though they were not sin their weight was a hindrance to my walk, I do not want any strings tying me down to this world When Jesus comes, or I go by the way of the grave.

[@dominicochoa9925]

Jesus's crucifixion is the means by which we may be forgiven. This doesn't mean that His sacrifice isn't enough to remove and forgive us for our sins, but it means that if we continue in sin and remain unrepentant, we can and will lose salvation. Good works go hand in hand in faith. There are a plethora of verses in Mark, Peter, and Matthew that say that we must strive for righteousness. Therefore, good works go hand in hand. We can be forgiven for our sins, but we should not live in them. This is not works based salvation. Righteousness is a lack of evil works. A lack of works. Faith and repentance still save. Repentance is not a work, because it is a work of God to forgive us for our sins. Salvation can be lost. It's a day by day task for a lifetime, not a lifetime that decides whether or not every previous day was enough

did you catch that????? You conveniently added the word Forever but it never said forever! and also you conveniently skipped over the fact that the word sealed is used in the bible as a stamp a mark NOT as meaning it is Closed and Locked in that is a different definition of the word. You are using the definition of sealing something like "locked in" yet the bible speaks of a seal as being a mark or symbol representing ownership. In verse 14 RIGHT AFTER THIS VERSE in the bible it refers to it like a Down payment or a deposit. But does a down payment/deposit, a symbol showing you are God's that he purchased you and you belong to him, mean that it is "unsealable" and he cant cut you off? He cant remove his deposit? no because being marked doesnt mean you cannot be disowned. But of course to remain consistent with your already preferred idea of osas you have to be told that seal means locked in so you can feel comfortable. Even though the word used in the greek for seal is to mark. not to close up or lock in. I suggest you reread the word through clean and unbiased eyes.

Edward Russell agreed, but it’s not our works that saves us, it’s our faith through grace, a gift from the Lord. Good works is evidence of our faith, something that naturally occurs because God lives in us and sanctifies us, but it’s not what determines our salvation. We just have to examine if our faith is truly in Christ because even demons believe in the name of Jesus.

@Edward Russell those verses was for Israel, they had to sacrifice animals and show their works with Faith.

The entire chapter is not talking about running the race in order to earn one’s keep with God. It’s talking about running in order to obtain a prize (i.e., an eternal reward). Eternal life is a free-gift received at the moment of belief, whereas, eternal rewards are earned by a life of faithfulness. Paul speaks about an incorruptible crown which will be earned by remaining disciplined in service to the Lord. Paul is by no means teaching that we have to prove we deserve to be kept least at any given moment God gets rid of us.

He says, "depart of from I never knew you" not "I knew you and I lost you." In the example of the ones he says it to, they are rattling off their works (lordship salvation). They added their works as a condition of salvation and thus grace was of no effect to them. It is trusting only the completed work of Christ that saves.

Scripture against osas. Mathew 25 for starters, Luk 13:23-30, Mat 13:3-23 - Mar 4:3-20 - Luk 8:5-15 The sower, 3 of the casting of the Word of God began to grow, they started the race but 2 of those casting did not endure unto the end. Luk 8:13 They on the rock are they, which, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, which for a while believe, and in time of temptation fall away. Luk 8:14 And that which fell among thorns are they, which, when they have heard, go forth, and are choked with cares and riches and pleasures of this life, and bring no fruit to perfection. Joh 15:2 Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. Joh 15:5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing. Joh 15:6 If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned. Those that fail to bring forth good fruit like the seed in Luk 8:14 are subject to John 15:2,6. 1Co 6:7 Now therefore there is utterly a fault among you, because ye go to law one with another. Why do ye not rather take wrong? why do ye not rather suffer yourselves to be defrauded? 1Co 6:8 Nay, ye do wrong, and defraud, and that your brethren. 1Co 6:9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, 1Co 6:10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God Eph 5:3 But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints; Eph 5:4 Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks. Eph 5:5 For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God. Eph 5:6 Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience. Eph 5:7 Be not ye therefore partakers with them. there would be no need for these warnings to Christians if they could not be subject to them because osas says they cannot be. a man-made doctrine does not get to sit in judgment of God's Word. Gal 5:19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, Gal 5:20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, Gal 5:21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God Gal 6:7 Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. Gal 6:8 For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting. Gal 6:9 And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not. Rev 21:8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death. It does not matter what your doctrine says, what matters is what God's Word says, and when there are scriptures that have eternal consequences if you do those things, your doctrine does not get to change God's Word and no that scripture is not osased. (osased) made null and void by the doctrine of osas. Either God's word says what it means and means what it says or it doesn't, when God's Word says if you do this, that, or the other thing you will not inherit the Kingdom of God, it means exactly what it says and osas is not going to get you out of it. Heb 6:4 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, Heb 6:5 And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come, Heb 6:6 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. Heb 6:7 For the earth which drinketh in the rain that cometh oft upon it, and bringeth forth herbs meet for them by whom it is dressed, receiveth blessing from God: Heb 6:8 But that which beareth thorns and briers is rejected, and is nigh unto cursing; whose end is to be burned. Heb 10:26 For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins, Heb 10:27 But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries. Heb 10:28 He that despised Moses’ law died without mercy under two or three witnesses: Heb 10:29 Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace? Heb 10:30 For we know him that hath said, Vengeance belongeth unto me, I will recompense, saith the Lord. And again, The Lord shall judge his people. Heb 10:31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. Osasers do not get to interpret away or explain away the hard verses that stand against their osas, they get to read them and believe them exactly as they read. Anyone that says, those verses do not mean what you think they mean is a liar, and they are about to interpret or explain those verses in such a way as to render them null and void of what they plainly say. God's Word says it and that settles it. Luk 11:24 When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest; and finding none, he saith, I will return unto my house whence I came out. Luk 11:25 And when he cometh, he findeth it swept and garnished. Luk 11:26 Then goeth he, and taketh to him seven other spirits more wicked than himself; and they enter in, and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first. It takes the power of God to evict the unclean spirit to start with, but after time has been given by God for that person to grow and obey, and they refuse to do so, God will leave, and when He does the unclean spirit finds his former home vacant and ready for reoccupation and this time he brings some friends.

That’s the part that you’re not realizing: (1 Timothy 5:8) “But if anyone does not provide for his own, and especially for those of his household, he has 👉denied the faith👈 and is WORSE than an unbeliever.” You as a believer can “deny the faith” by your deeds. It’s not automatic that your faith will produce good works. You must participate in your own salvation. We are not sponges 🧽 soaking up God’s grace.

Gotta repent from eating the Forbidden Fruit of the flesh of God's creatures. Judgement is on the horizon because most are still eating the Forbidden Fruit of the flesh of God's creatures, "thou shalt not kill", remember? For those who think "thou shalt not kill" only applies to killing people, have a read. Isaiah 66:3 "He that kills an ox is as if he slew a man; he that sacrifices a lamb, as if he cut off a dog's neck; he that offers a grain offering, as if he offered swine's blood; he that burns incense, as if he blessed an idol. Yea, they have chosen their own ways, and their souls delight in their own abominations." .

@Charles Pieters the commandment keepers don't even keep the 10 perfectly! Jas 2:10 For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all. they offend in one point and are thus guilty of all 613 OT commandments.

[@dennishagans6339]

@Charles Pieters first of all, the quote from Exodus is not a part of the Law Exo 32:31 And Moses returned unto the LORD, and said, Oh, this people have sinned a great sin, and have made them gods of gold. Exo 32:32 Yet now, if thou wilt forgive their sin; and if not, blot me, I pray thee, out of thy book which thou hast written. Exo 32:33 And the LORD said unto Moses, Whosoever hath sinned against me, him will I blot out of my book. this is a conversation between God and Moses and God is making a Direct Statement to Moses *_Whosoever hath sinned against me, him will I blot out of my book._* secondly, I stand firmly against osas it is a doctrine from the pits of Hell thirdly you misunderstood what I meant about offending in one point and being guilty of all. if you offend in one point of the Law as James says you are guilty of breaking all of the Law of which there are 613 old Testament commandments google it, so to offend in one point of the Law is to be just as guilty as if you broke all 613 commandments. sda's and other cultist groups that claim we have to keep the 10 commandments violate The law of The Sabbath in one point. there are two of the 10 commandments that have two parts. Exo 20:12 Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee. Eph 6:1 Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right. Eph 6:2 Honour thy father and mother; *_(which is the first commandment with promise;)_* Eph 6:3 That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth. as that commandment has two parts there is one more with two parts the one that the law keepers stress the most. Exo 20:8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Exo 20:9 Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work: Exo 20:10 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: Exo 20:11 For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it. this commandment also has two parts and the second part is not kept by the law keepers Exo 31:13 Speak thou also unto the children of Israel, saying, Verily my sabbaths ye shall keep: for it is a sign between me and you throughout your generations; that ye may know that I am the LORD that doth sanctify you. Exo 31:14 Ye shall keep the sabbath therefore; for it is holy unto you: every one that defileth it shall surely be put to death: for whosoever doeth any work therein, that soul shall be cut off from among his people. Exo 31:15 *_Six days may work be done; but in the seventh is the sabbath of rest, holy to the LORD: whosoever doeth any work in the sabbath day, he shall surely be put to death._* Exo 31:16 Wherefore the children of Israel shall keep the sabbath, to observe the sabbath throughout their generations, for a perpetual covenant. Exo 31:17 It is a sign between me and the children of Israel for ever: for in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day he rested, and was refreshed. Exo 35:2 *_Six days shall work be done, but on the seventh day there shall be to you an holy day, a sabbath of rest to the LORD: whosoever doeth work therein shall be put to death._* those who violate the Sabbath are to be put to death that is the second part of the Law of The Sabbath, the so-called Sabbath keepers are offending in this one point of the law in that they do not do the whole of the Law of the Sabbath but only half of it. and to get out of the second part of the Law of the Sabbath the law keepers must run to the New Testament to get their reason why they do not have to do the second part of Keeping the Sabbath, so if they are going to get one reason for not keeping one point of the 10 commandments from the New Testament why not get the rest of the reasons for not being under the Law but under Grace from the New Testament as well.

Hi. It is absolutely true, 'once saved, always saved.' Remember that salvation is to know Christ, "This is eternal life, that you know God and Jesus Christ Whom He has sent." A person who falls away never knew the Lord, as it is written, "Love never fails." If 'love' fails, it was never really love in the first place; if someone denies the Lord permanently, then they were never saved in the first place; if a person loves sin but professes Christ, they are a tare among the wheat, a wolf in sheep's clothing, a false convert. Jesus said that whoever believes in Him will have rivers of living water bubbling up within them. Do you know the Lord? Are you seated in the heavenlies with Christ? Does the Holy Spirit bear witness with your spirit that you are a child of God? Remember that salvation is a personal encounter with the Lord. Simply confessing or going to church does nothing unless you are filled with the Holy Spirit. Ask and you shall receive! If you are not certain about your salvation, you probably are not saved! Jesus Christ is the light of the world.

[@kenshiloh]

@@iceyblue1077 Hi. I hope that you will carefully and prayerfully consider what I have to say, as I am sharing accurately from the Word of God. Paul wrote, "Whoever calls upon the Name of the Lord shall be saved (Romans 10.13)." From Scripture, can we agree that those who are saved 1) bear much fruit and 2) endure to the end? Therefore, when a person calls upon the Name of the Lord, they will be born again. Conversely, if a person prays the 'Sinner's Prayer,' but is not filled with the Holy Spirit, they did not truly call upon the Name of the Lord. For example, you mentioned that if a person acts according to fleshly desires without repentance they shall be cut off. Yet, those who have been born again will not fulfill the lusts of the flesh, as they hunger and thirst after righteousness. You cannot be saved and not love and serve the Lord. Those who have been born again HAVE eternal life. They will live forever in Christ, they will hate sin, and they will endure to the end - otherwise they did not have eternal life in the first place. You cannot have temporary eternal life! Therefore, a person cannot 'lose' eternal life, as they were never born again, as they were never saved in the first place. What I am about to write is of eternal importance to you. Referring to the Holy Spirit, Jesus said, "Whoever believes in Me shall have rivers of living water bubbling up inside of them." Do you have that? Do you know the Holy Spirit? Does He bear witness that you are saved (Romans 8.16)? If not, then ask, trusting that God always keeps a promise. Whoever asks of Him shall receive the Holy Spirit. Work out your salvation with fear and trembling. Christ died on a Cross so that we may know Him. If you are living in fear that you mighty lose your salvation, my question is, how do you know you are saved in the first place? The problem is easily solved by asking for and receiving the Holy Spirit. Christ died on a Cross so that we may know Him. Jesus Christ is the light of the world.

And in that case you are eternally secure because He does the saving. He promises it is eternal life. Not maybe so life. Many who taste of the Holy Spirit but not swallow or gobble it completely are not saved. And can be enlightened but not surrendered and born again. Tasting and being enlighted are not salvation. Jesus said that all that come to Him in salvation He will not lose one. He even promises that those that are under the blood of Jesus are predestined to be like Christ someday. To mix one's filthy rags self works with the finished work of Grace is satans biggest tool to get people to trust in themselves and not in Jesus and His work on the cross.

Because of the righteous things they have done, they will live. 23 Do I take any pleasure in the death of the wicked? declares the Sovereign LORD.

Luk 8:13 They on the rock are they, which, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, which for a while believe, and in time of temptation fall away. Heb 6:4 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, Heb 6:5 And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come, Heb 6:6 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. Heb 6:7 For the earth which drinketh in the rain that cometh oft upon it, and bringeth forth herbs meet for them by whom it is dressed, receiveth blessing from God: Heb 6:8 But that which beareth thorns and briers is rejected, and is nigh unto cursing; whose end is to be burned. Mat 25:7 Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps. Mat 25:8 And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out. Mat 25:9 But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves. Mat 25:10 And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut. Mat 25:11 Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us. Mat 25:12 But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not. all 10 were VIRGINS but 5 of them were shut out of the Marriage Supper of the Lamb. Mat 25:24 Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering where thou hast not strawed: Mat 25:25 And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, there thou hast that is thine. Mat 25:26 His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed: Mat 25:27 Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury. Mat 25:28 Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath ten talents. Mat 25:29 For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath. Mat 25:30 And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. all of these were SERVANTS of The Lord, but one of them was fearful and did nothing with what his Lord gave him, and he was cast into outer darkness. Rev 21:8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death. the fearful SERVANT was cast into outer darkness. Rev 3:5 He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels. Rev 3:6 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches. Rev 22:19 And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book. names can be blotted out or removed from the Book of Life Rev 20:15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. it is obvious that if a name has been blotted out or removed then on that day it will not be found. this is but a fraction of the verses that stand against osas. but people will hunt for anything to deny these scriptures and change them so that they do not stand against their beloved osas. they would rather find ways around what the Scriptures plainly say so they can keep their man-made doctrine rather than to believe the Word of God. because to admit that your doctrine is wrong is to admit that you have been deceived by those you LOVE, and that prospect is too painful to radical to even consider, pride will not let millions admit they were deceived, they would rather maintain the status quo, not make waves, not ruffle any feathers and walk as an enemy of the Cross than to admit they have been deceived. I was a Baptist once but I left over osas. God did not allow me to become indoctrinated into that heresy. when you have to find ways to deny scripture to save your man-made doctrine from them, that should throw up a huge red flag, but it does not because people become blinded to the truth to keep their lies. so many people have the rose-colored glasses of their Pastor and denomination on so that when the truth is right in front of their eyes, those glasses filter out that truth so that it is not perceived. the very Word of God has to be wrong so that the doctrine can stand because we know the doctrine is true and cannot be undone therefore the scriptures standing against their doctrine are WRONG. they prefer to accuse God's Word of being wrong rather than their doctrine. the emotional bond of love for the Pastor and denomination they got saved in blinds them to the Truth of God's Word in favor of the doctrine they have learned from those that would never lie to them. one of their favorite tactics is to claim that you are not rightly dividing the Word of Truth because if you were then you would believe as they do so you must be wrongly dividing the Word of Truth because only believing in their doctrine is rightly dividing the Word of Truth.

You can not water down clear, succinct and truthful scripture. Gods grace is a free gift! No works are actually required! Although, once a person is saved the Spirit that abides in them will pursue good works.

Better works even, but ultimately they have the freedom that Christ promised, an easy yoke and a light burden. The free gift of grace that the Lord gave us. We are confident in our salvation and know that should we not always attain the perfection laid out in the bible, we are still saved.

Eternal security is most definitely taught in the Bible. One cannot be chosen before the foundation of the world and then un-chosen in time. Believers are "sealed unto the day of redemption." The other side of the coin is that a professing Christian is not going to live like the devil. The good news is that we don't have to separate all the tares from the wheat. God will do that, for "knows them that are His." The doctrine of eternal security must not be rejected in an attempt to combat the abuse of God's wondrous grace.

[@RevelationTwelve11]

Formerly Rabbi Chris ... What many people fail to understand is that, although Yeshua (Jesus) will NEVER leave us or forsake us, WE CAN leave HIM and FORSAKE HIM and thereby lose our salvation. The Bible is clear about this and even foretells that there will be Christians who will "DEPART FROM THE FAITH" in the last days: "Now the Spirit expressly says that *in latter times some will depart from the faith,* giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons ..." (1 Tim. 4:1) In order to depart from the faith, one must first be IN the faith, a true believer in Yeshua. 2 Thess. 2 refers to this departure from the faith as "the falling away." Under the persecution and threat of death from the antichrist, many will renounce Yeshua during the tribulation to come. And when they DENY HIM by accepting the mark of the beast in order to save their own earthly lives, then HE, BY HIS OWN WORD, must then DENY THEM. "This is a faithful saying: For if we died with Him, We shall also live with Him. *IF we ENDURE, * We shall also reign with Him. *IF we DENY Him, * *HE also will DENY US."* (2 Tim. 2:11-12) Do you SEE that it is CONDITIONAL? IF we ENDURE ... or IF we DENY HIM. His people will have to MAKE A CHOICE to either REMAIN IN HIM or DENY HIM. And when speaking of the tribulation at the end of the age prior to His return, Yeshua Himself said, "He who ENDURES TO THE END shall be saved." (Matt. 24:13) "But WHOEVER denies Me before men, him I will also deny before My Father who is in heaven." (Matt. 10:33) "Once saved, always saved" is NOT sound doctrine, but is rather a dangerous deception from Satan and is meant to cause deceived Christians to cast away their own salvation ... because they erroneously THINK that they CANNOT POSSIBLY LOSE THEIR SALVATION, EVEN IF THEY CAST IT AWAY THEMSELVES BY DENYING YESHUA in order to save their physical lives! TAKE HEED TO YESHUA'S WARNING: *"For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will save it."* (Luke 9:24)

Essentially, it comes down to who is doing the saving? If we are trusting in anything we do to save us, we have no hope of even temporary salvation, much less eternal salvation. However, if God is saving us then we can truly say we are being saved and know that He who has begun a good work in us will complete it.

@Puppet 777 please give scripture to back up everything you are saying (church age etc)... You know that he was revealed to take away our sins, and in him is no sin. Whoever remains in him doesn’t sin. Whoever sins hasn’t seen him and doesn’t know him. Little children, let no one lead you astray. He who does righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous. He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has been sinning from the beginning. To this end the Son of God was revealed: that he might destroy the works of the devil. 1 John 3:5‭-‬8 But if we sin on purpose that's totally different according to the word... For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remains no more a sacrifice for sins, but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and a fierceness of fire which will devour the adversaries. A man who disregards Moses’ law dies without compassion on the word of two or three witnesses. How much worse punishment do you think he will be judged worthy of who has trodden under foot the Son of God, and has counted the blood of the covenant with which he was sanctified an unholy thing, and has insulted the Spirit of grace? Hebrews 10:26‭-‬29

[@Damian.Williams]

@Puppet 777 so no scripture to back up your theory of church age ? As Paul says in a number of places that those who come to Messiah are no longer Gentiles but are the children or seed (literally “sperm,” which is the meaning of the Greek word) of Abraham (Eph 2:11-19; Rom 4:16; 9:8-11; Gal 3:7,9,14,28-29). The word Gentiles as used in the Scriptures (both in the Hebrew and the Greek languages) simply means ethnic groups or nations. There are many places in the Scriptures where Jews and Israelites are referred to as “Gentiles.” There is no class of people called Gentiles in the spiritual body of Messiah. Scripture uses the following terms for the redeemed of God: the saints, the called out ones (or church), the body of Messiah (1 Cor 10:16; 12:27; Eph 4:12) the one new man (Eph 2:15), sons of God (Rom 8:14, 19; Phil 2:15; 1 John 3:1, 2), children of God (Rom 8:16, 21; Gal 3:26; 1 John 3:10), or Abraham’s offspring (Gal 3:29), for example.... There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free man, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus. If you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s offspring and heirs according to promise. Galatians 3:28-29 Therefore remember that at one time you Gentiles in the flesh, called "the uncircumcision" by what is called the circumcision, which is made in the flesh by hands- remember that you were at that time separated from Christ, alienated from the COMMONWEALTH OF ISRAEL AND STRANGERS TO THE COVENANTS OF PROMISE, having no hope and without God in the world. But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ. Ephesians 2:11‭-‬13

[@Damian.Williams]

@Puppet 777 my understanding is that we must first Know what sin is, then when we've gained the knowledge of truth we repent (turn away from sin) how many times did our Messiah say go and sin no more? For example if your a Murderer and you repent and you are forgiven... then you continue to murder people have you truly repented? What does scripture say?... My little children, I write these things to you so that you may not sin. If anyone sins, we have a Counselor with the Father, Jesus Christ, the righteous. And he is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not for ours only, but also for the whole world. This is how we know that we know him: if we keep his commandments. One who says, “I know him,” and doesn’t keep his commandments, is a liar, and the truth isn’t in him. But whoever keeps his word, God’s love has most certainly been perfected in him. This is how we know that we are in him: he who says he remains in him ought himself also to walk just like he walked. 1 John 2:1‭-‬6

Romans8:1 Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus Romans 8:39 nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. John3:15-17 that everyone who believes in Him may have eternal life. For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that everyone who believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through Him.… John6:47 Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me has everlasting life. colossians1:20 and through Him to reconcile to Himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through the blood of His cross. psalm103:10 He has not dealt with us according to our sins or repaid us according to our iniquities. psalm 103:12 As far as the east is from the west, So far has He removed our transgressions from us. 2 corrin 5:19 For God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, no longer counting people’s sins against them.

HE is the one that does the saving and HE promises that those who believe un HIM are declared righteous when born again.

Like apostle Paul writes, 'yea, let God be true, but every man a liar... there is none righteous, no, not one...' when 'There is no fear of God before their eyes'. Thus, like Paul, let us all 'rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh' so as to 'walk after men' (Rom.3:4,10,18, Phil.3:3, 1Cor.3:3). Paul trumpets this saying, 'Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of The World, and not after Christ' (Col.2:8).

Dude, Please study, 1. The believer has everlasting or eternal life. John 5:24: “Verily, verily, I say unto you, he that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.” John 10:28: “And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.” 2. The believer is born of God. John 1:12-13: “But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.” 3. Christ will raise every believer up at the last day. John 6:44-47: “No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day. It is written in the prophets, and they shall be all taught of God. Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh unto me. Not that any man hath seen the Father, save he which is of God, he hath seen the Father. Verily, verily, I say unto you, he that believeth on me hath everlasting life.” 4. The believer has already passed from death unto life. John 5:24: “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.” 5. The believer is not the object of God’s wrath. John 3:36: “He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.” 6. Believer are God’s sheep. John 10:2-4: “But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep. To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out. And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice.” 7. The believer will not listen to nor follow a stranger, but will flee from him. John 10:5: “And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers.” (The stranger here is Satan and his false teachers.) 8. The believer is known of God. John 10:14: “I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine.” 9. The believer listens to the voice of the shepherd. John 10:27: “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.” 10. The believer is in Christ’s hand and cannot be plucked out. John 10:28: “And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.” 11. The believer is in the Father’s hand and cannot be plucked out. John 10:29: “My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father’s hand.” 12. The shepherd is charged with the responsibility of keeping the sheep. John 10:11-14: “I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep. But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep. The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep. I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine.” 13. The believer is not condemned. John 3:18: “He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.” 14. The believer shall never thirst. John 4:14: “But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.” 15. The believer will keep Christ’s commandments. John 14:23: “Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.” 16. The believer is secure because of Christ’s prayer. John 17:9-12: “I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast given me; for they are thine. And all mine are thine, and thine are mine; and I am glorified in them. And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee, Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are. While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled.” 17. The believer shall never die. John 11:26: “And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?” 18. The believer to be kept from the evil. John 17:15: “I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil.” Jesus prays that the believer may be kept from the Devil. Was this prayer answered? 19. The believer to be with Christ in glory. John 17:24: “Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given me, be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given me: for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world.” 20. The believer shall never hunger. John 6:35: “And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.” 21. The believer will in no wise be cast out (Not under any circumstance). John 6:37: “All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.” 22. Christ will not lose a single believer. John 6:39: “And this is the Father’s will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day.” 23. Christ will raise up the believer at the last day. John 6:38-40: “For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me. And this is the Father’s will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day. And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.” 24. Whosoever eats the bread of life shall never die. John 6:51: “I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live forever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.” 25. Because the Holy Spirit abides in the believer forever. John 14:16-17: “And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you forever; even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.” 26. Because it is the Father’s will that Christ should lose nothing. John 6:39: “And this is the Father’s will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day.” 27. Because one cannot be unborn. John 3:5: “Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.” 28. The believer will follow Christ. John 10:27: “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.” Following Christ, can one be lost? Have we any right to add to God’s Word by inserting if” to the passage?

For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.

[@kenshiloh]

Hi. It is absolutely true, 'once saved, always saved.' Remember that salvation is to know Christ, "This is eternal life, that you know God and Jesus Christ Whom He has sent." A person who falls away never knew the Lord, as it is written, "Love never fails." If 'love' fails, it was never really love in the first place; if someone denies the Lord permanently, then they were never saved in the first place; if a person loves sin but professes Christ, they are a tare among the wheat, a wolf in sheep's clothing, a false convert. Jesus said that whoever believes in Him will have rivers of living water bubbling up within them. Do you know the Lord? Are you seated in the heavenlies with Christ? Does the Holy Spirit bear witness with your spirit that you are a child of God? Remember that salvation is a personal encounter with the Lord. Simply confessing or going to church does nothing unless you are filled with the Holy Spirit. Ask and you shall receive! If you are not certain about your salvation, you probably are not saved! Jesus Christ is the light of the world.

[@Adam-ue2ig]

If you used assurance as an excuse to sin you didn't understand the doctrine correctly...what did Paul teach in romans 1-5 that caused him to anticipate an objection in romans 6:1 what then shall we say shall we continue to sin that grace may abound, certainly not...

Understanding that He finished the work and justified us on the Cross will cause us to love and serve him more in humble obedience because we have such a great savior that was willing to die for us.

[@kenshiloh]

@@Adam-ue2ig Hi Adam. In all respect, you have it backwards. That is, once saved, always saved is totally true. That said, only the Holy Spirit knows who is saved. To gain salvation, a person must be filled with the Holy Spirit. Jesus said, "Whoever believes in Me will have rivers of living water bubbling inside them to eternal life." Conversely, if a person does not have an encounter with God, if they are not filled with the Holy Spirit, if they do not have those rivers of living water, neither are they saved. Moreover, Jesus said, "Whoever loves Me will keep My Commandments." Many Christians misunderstand the Lord. That is, it is not a guilt trip as in, "If you love me - prove it!" Instead, it is a 'cause and effect.' Just like the sun lights the morning sky, so those who know the Lord breathe every breath to the glory of God. In fact, those who have been born again have total freedom. As it is written, "All things are lawful..." for those who believe. That is, I am totally free to do whatever I want, whenever I want. If you disagree, I will be very concerned for you. That is because those who are saved have total freedom, but they live only to do the will of the Father. Yet, do you think in terms of, "If I had total freedom, I would be in sin; I would get lazy in my faith"? Not so for those in Christ. Total freedom means freedom to seek the Lord with all their heart, freedom to give all to Christ. If you do not have that kind of faith, it is time to get right with God. Thank the Lord for filling you with the Holy Spirit; ask in total faith in the promises of God. Unless you are born again, you cannot enter heaven. That said, your comment smacks of someone who has not yet had a personal encounter with God; otherwise you would understand what freedom in Christ is. If you have the Holy Spirit living in you, you understand what total freedom is all about. Ask and you shall receive! Jesus Christ is the light of the world.

While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled. And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are. All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.

@Janaina Ribeiro can you find a verse to support that?

[@fillup901]

Brother you have to use CONTEXT to interpret the bible. Otherwise we end up interpreting to whatever we think a verse or parable means. Also you cant do that with a new translation because they're not consistent. If you can lose your salvation then... 1. Why are there no clear verses about losing your salvation, only parables which can be interpreted that way? 2. Why are there only clear verses about salvation not being by works, and on faith alone? 3. So we're not good enough to earn our salvation but we're good enough to retain it? 4. If obedience to the law is considered works, Ro 2:6-10 & 15, then why is obediency necessary to be saved? 5. If repentence is considered work, then why is repentence necessary to be saved? 6. How exactly do we get saved? What must we do? How many good deeds, prayers, confession, church attendance, repentance is necessary? 7. Why did Jesus say I NEVER knew you (as in they were never saved) in Mt 7:21 to the ppl who relied on their WORKS for salvation saved? 8. Why did Paul say Abraham was justified by his faith unto God, not by his works in Ro 4:3? 9. If Paul said Abraham was justified by works, but NOT BEFORE God, then who was he justified unto by his works? (unto men Lk 16:15) 10. Why is there not one single verse that mentions getting saved by works? 11. Did the guy on the cross next to Jesus not get saved even though Jesus told him he would be? He did zero works 12. Wouldn't works salvation mean all Christians are going to hell? We all covet via our phones and many are gluttons/overweight. 13. Sin = death, but Jesus gave us life, so what did Jesus mean when he said we'll never die as long as we believe? 14. Jesus said we "hath" (present tense) eternal life, but if we can lose it doesn't that mean it's not eternal? 15. Doesn't works salvation make it partly about me? (I pray daily, I confess my sins, I go to church, I help the poor) 16. Adding to the previous question, what did Paul mean when he said, "salvation is by faith so that no man can boast?" 17. How can it be a gift of God if he expects ANYTHING from us besides believing? 18. Our biological dads don't claim we're no longer their kids for disobeying, but God, being the greatest of all Fathers, does? 19. Jesús sacrifice made us perfect, which means getting saved or being made whole James 1:4. If we must work to be saved, is Jesus's sacrifice not perfect or complete since we have to contribute to it, and what does he mean by making us perfect? 20. How do you explain He 7:19, which says "for the law made nothing perfect?" 21. If keeping the commandments are required for salvation, is Paul in hell, because he said in Ro 7:15-25 he does that which he hates (can't stop sinning) 22. How can you keep God's commandments if Jesus says you can do nothing without me? 23. If you say I pray, I confess, I do this or do that to be saved, then how do you explain "salvation is by faith alone, lest any man SHOULD BOAST. 24. Why does God NEVER say the Israelites lost their title as His children after they commit a transgression? 25. Fire is used as a metaphor for purifying, discipline, and hell, so how do we know some parallels are speaking about hell? 26. Why is there no verse stating that getting saved is hard or difficult? It mentions trials, but not overcoming them as a requirement for salvation. 27. In John 15:16, Mt 28:19-20, Mk 3:14, and many others, Jesus "ordains" us to "go and bring forth fruit." In Mark 3:14 Jesus ordains the apostles to go "forth to preach." Hence, do we lose our salvation if we dont get others saved? 28. What did Paul mean in Ro 7:10 "And the commandment, which was ordained to life, I found to be unto death?" 29. What did Jesus mean when he said we would know that we are saved? If we can lose it, then you never know when you're saved 30. If obedience to the law is a type of works 31. Why did John say, nothing can separate us from Him, including "no man?" 32. How can we follow his commandments if we don't abound in him? 33. How is 2 Co 9:8 "every man according as he purposeth IN HIS HEART, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity" if works are needed to be saved? 34. Which verses state that we must change our habits, 35. Scripture says our faith is COUNTED unto righteousness, meaning we were given something which we could never qualify for, so how can we say we must do something to acquire salvation? 36. If we can get repeatedly saved, what did Paul mean in He 10:14 when he said he "hath perfected us ONCE?" 37. If we can get repeatedly saved, what did Paul mean in He 10:14 when he said he "hath perfected us FOREVER?" 38. John 6:37, them who the Father gives me I will not cast out. If we sin willfully or not but still want to live in Him, isn't he casting us out?

I completely agree that assurance does not give license to act anyway you wish. That is a gross misunderstanding of the doctrine. However, in order to come to the conclusion that you can lose true salvation , is also a misunderstanding. All sin was paid for at the cross, otherwise, Jesus blood was not enough. God's election is irrelevant and we are responsible for our own Salvation by works. If you can lose your salvation in this way, then David a man after God's own heart was saved, then unsaved and based on your interpretation of Hebrews 6, could not be saved again... No, when truly saved, works follow but they do not save... Ephesians 2:8-9, Titus 3:5, Romans 8 etc. You would have to throw out Psalm 121 for example if you thought that you were responsible or even able to somehow preserve yourself, or Jude for that matter. The key is "true salvation". To be regenerated by the Holy Spirit is to be sealed in Jesus. John 10 makes this so plain. My sheep hear my voice and they follow me. And I give them eternal life and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of my hand. My Father who has given them to me is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of my Fathers hand.i and my Father are one" I looked up "never" in the dictionary. It means never.

[@looseele]

I'm going to respond before watching, like I do sometimes to see if our beliefs line up: What I see in Scripture is that salvation is the reward for a "lifetime" of dedication and that it's completely up to Christ whether or not your name is written in or blotted out of the "Book of Life". I've seen "Christians" completely neglect the concept of producing fruit in exchange for a hedonistic lifestyle based on their belief that they are "saved" due to a one time confession. I've seen other "Christians" work themselves into a joyless existence based on their legalistic deeds and guilty conscience. But what does Christ say about it? He judges a man's heart and he's looking for faith. That faith is this: Does man trust that God has nailed our sins to the cross? Does man truly believe that Christ became sin for us? Does man spread that message with grace and truth? Does man understand that the kingdom of heaven is composed of servants who are well rewarded for their loyalty to God? If a man has these qualities, he will naturally produce fruit and it will be clear to Christ who is worthy of such a distinct honor. That being said, since we have a high priest who is familiar with our plight, I predict that Christ will be much more merciful and compassionate than most "Christians" WANT him to be. I truly believe many Christians want to "go to heaven" (which is another thing altogether) at everyone else's expense rather than Christ's. .....imma watch the video now.

Legalistic means that a person follows scripture. I believe that is the only way to go to heaven. Making stuff up instead of following God's word is a one way ticket to hell.

[@LouLouLion]

@@BokaLokaToka I felt the same way my whole life, only recently my eyes were opened. If legalistic is the only way to Heaven you just denied Jesus Christ and you're trampling what He did on the Cross underfoot. You're basically saying He got the job done about 70% and your righteousness will take care of the other 30% He couldn't manage. Was Adam above Jesus? Sin entered the world through Eve and Adam, but you don't think God coming in the flesh and dying on a cross can erase it for those who believe on Him? Our righteousness is filthy rags. If you truly try to live out the laws, like the Pharisees, then you will be judged by the law and you better be perfect like Jesus was. Which you won't be as long as you are wrapped in flesh. The law is like a mirror, if you truly try to live it and you're not self-righteous then you will turn yourself inside out and upside down trying to follow all the rules. The point of the law is to get to a desperation and realize you'll never make it without depending on what Jesus did on the cross and putting your salvation into Him, by faith we receive salvation. Also, repenting won't work either. We sin without even knowing it. Anything not done in faith is a sin! Nowhere in the Bible does it say "repent of your sins." It says to repent, but God repented 38 times in the Bible, did He sin? No, stay away from NIV and EST Bible. They have put in interpretations instead of translations. Repent in Strongs Greek Dictionary is metaneo from g3326 and g3539 which means to think differently, or to reconsider. You don't repent of your sins and a sinners prayer is nowhere in the Bible. You have to Change your mind and stop believing in your works to get you there and believe on the death, burial, and ressurection of Jesus for your salvation. 1 Corinthians 1-4 is the true gospel. Good works come when you receive the Spirit of God and you will do them out of love for what He has done for you. It truly is good news! His yoke is easy and His burden is light. If we have to depend on our works then we are all doomed to hell. We can't make it. What Jesus did is sufficient. Our sins will be covered past, present and future. And before you say it, it is not a license to sin. Humans don't need one, they will sin regardless. Then you can actually stop focusing on your falling short and share the good news. God will work in you and start to change you. You will then do better at keeping commandments then you ever did on your own, the difference is you're secure in your salvation instead of always wondering if you're okay. And you leave the salvation up to what he did for you. Abraham's faith was counted for righteousness. We are only righteous once we change our mind and believe only on Jesus to get us there, then God sees the blood of the lamb when He looks at us, not our falling short in works or the law. Take Matt 7:21 the people (what I assume to be pastors) were telling God of all the WORKS they did. They had cast out demons, etc. He said "Depart from me ye WORKERS of iniquity, for I never knew you." He didn't say I used to know you and you forgot to repent of something. They were obviously religious. The people didn't say "Jesus we put our faith in you and I believed on you." They listed their WORKS instead. Why did He never know them? Because they trusted in their WORKS instead of God's grace. They were then judged on the law. I had an epiphany. I've prayed for truth for 7 months and God led me to it. I believed in rules too, just like the Pharisees. Jesus told them the Harlots would make it into heaven before they would. Allow the law to show you you need jesus, don't depend on your works, you'll never make it that way. We are not Jesus. God bless brother and there is a lady that explains this way better than I can. Just hear her out then you can go back to your legalistic views. Type in Renee Roland and only use KJV. Your eyes may be opened like mine were and then when it clicks, and you read your Bible, it will all make much more sense than it ever has and you will wonder how you never saw it before. May God lead you to truth and bless you. The biggest sin is believing on your own works instead of believing on what Christ did on the cross. If it points towards you and not Jesus then its not the right way.

[@billyrobinson6803]

I totally disagree with this this is the False Doctrine on Conditional Security it's completely non biblical concerning the Age of grace or Church Age . This heretical teaching goes back to Dutch reformer named Jacobus Arminius 1560-1609 AKA Arminianism which is the old borred false teachings going back to Pelagius who even denied that people needed the Grace of God to save them but taught that by our own free will we can be living by the examples of the life Jesus lived here on earth giving us simple ways to merit God s goodness for our salvation love one another love God with all your heart,mind etc. And to pick up our crosses and follow the examples of Jesus and our free will is all we need to do good works to merit or to get in God s " good graces" thus be saved up to that point of conversion ALL THE WAY TILL WE DIE then can we ACTUALLY RECEIVE LIFE ETERNAL. but Arminius was at least wise enough to point out in his 5 Remistraital Points where in point 5 The fear of Christians possibly falling from grace he added in that THAT IF we are to teach and warm believers of back sliding or giving up in faith would RESULT IN THEIR LOSING THEIR SALVATION [has to be pointed out in Scriptures and he was of yet to really have TRUE SOLID Bible verses especially of the New Testament to back Conditional security. The argument debate of Eternal Security vs Conditional security can actually be blamed originally on galatianism Trying to live by the Grace of God and mixing The Law together to complete a person's salvation!!!! LEGALISM was the poison the SELF RIGHTEOUS Jewish leaders that was starting to corrupt some of the Xhurch of Galatia

Once saved, always saved! I was 6 when I was saved, 8 when I was baptized. Addiction took hold of my life in my 20s and I denounced my faith. For 10 years I hated Christians and I hated the church. I did not believe in God and saw Christianity as a way to control the masses. I had periods of hating God, not believing in God at all to just believing in some kind of higher power but thinking the Bible was a total sham. Bottom line though was that I wanted to do what I wanted to do and not experience guilt or shame over it. Didn't work lol. God brought me back right before I got sober and now AA teaches me how to have a healthy relationship with God. I ran from God for 10 years but I never lost my salvation even though I didn't believe in it at the time. *God created time and therefore is not bound by it! When I gave my life to him at 6 years old, He forgave me of every sin- past, present and Future including the sin of denying Him before others. He knew when I was 6 years old that I was going to denounce him for 10 years. I know I meant it in my childhood when I became a Christian. I know my name was sealed in the book of Life when I was six years old. I prayed the refiners prayer when I was 18 right before I started using. That's a prayer where we ask God to draw out our impurities. I had no idea what I was in for when I prayed that prayer. There was a lot of junk in my soul that I was not aware of that needed to be brought to the surface. My faith is stronger today because I walked away from God for 10 years. God has used my mess and turned it into a message. I loved God and served God with all my heart in my childhood, teen and early adult years. I decided later that I was not a Christian anymore but because no one could pluck me from his hand, including me, God never let me go. I was His. It seems like people almost forget that God exists outside of time. We see our sins and salvation in a timeline whereas God already knows our entire story. He knew before he made me that I was going to rebel and blaspheme his name. Rebellion is part of my walk with God, and I was already forgiven for it 2,000 years ago on the cross. Putting things into a timeline, I was forgiven for that sin at 6 years old.
