​@@BlessedHopeChapelTEXASYou absolutely CANNOT lose your salvation ! The Bible defines the lake of fire as being the second death (Revelation 20:14) and as it is the result of God's judgment, means it is the final death. The first death took place in Adam (1 Corinthians 15:22). Now because there can ONLY be two deaths, means once you are born again (spiritual rebirth / John 3:5) you can NEVER die again. One must remember that it is those who are NOT found in the book of life (Revelation 20:15) in other words those that are in a state of death, are the ones cast into the lake of fire. Now if it were possible to lose your salvation which it is not, it would require one to HAVE to die again after being born again, and that is because only those who are in a state of death in other words, those not found in the book of life can be cast in to the lake of fire. I know I am being pedantic but it is only to make the point that if you die again after being born again, you have suffered a second death, and this is IMPOSSIBLE and it is because the Bible makes it very clear that there can only be ONE second death that being the lake of fire. The Lord Jesus makes it very clear that once you are born again you can NEVER die again (John 11:26).

Not a Calvinist myself. But a belief in predestination does not always lead to lawlessness. The puritan writers were strong on pursuing holiness and pious living. Their thinking was, "If you do not persevere you were never one of the elect to begin with."

[@gregoryrepasky6332]

At our men’s meeting I requested an explanation for God being sovereign knowing that there may be differing perspectives on that word. I believe God is sovereign meaning He has the right to rule. It seems many Calvinists rose up with fervor in defending Calvinism which was not the subject. It was said Soteriology Is a non-essential. I thought to myself, if calvinism is a doctrine, then it is essential to talk about. I see how the deceptive doctrine of Calvinism and the license to sin has eroded the teachings of the Bible. Thank you for the teaching and the warning Pastor Joe!

@@theodoreritola7641 Once Abiding Always Abiding? The DANGER of entering into SIN? We NEVER know when we will EXHAUST God's grace. Yet...SOME continue to claim: "In the New Testament, our SINS are covered by GRACE! Once Jesus died on the cross, the CONSEQUENCES of sin CHANGED!" Is that statement true? Not exactly. There are two people who lived in New Testament times that continue to testify AGAINST the statement made above. Acts 5:1-11 But a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, sold a possession, 2 And kept back part of the price, his wife also being privy to it, and brought a certain part, and laid it at the apostles' feet. 3 But Peter said, Ananias, why hath Satan filled thine heart to lie to the Holy Ghost, and to keep back part of the price of the land? 4 Whiles it remained, was it not thine own? and after it was sold, was it not in thine own power? why hast thou conceived this thing in thine heart? thou hast not lied unto men, but unto God. 5 And Ananias hearing these words fell down, and gave up the ghost: and great fear came on all them that heard these things. 6 And the young men arose, wound him up, and carried him out, and buried him. 7 And it was about the space of three hours after, when his wife, not knowing what was done, came in. 8 And Peter answered unto her, Tell me whether ye sold the land for so much? And she said, Yea, for so much. 9 Then Peter said unto her, How is it that ye have agreed together to tempt the Spirit of the Lord? behold, the feet of them which have buried thy husband are at the door, and shall carry thee out. 10 Then fell she down straightway at his feet, and yielded up the ghost: and the young men came in, and found her dead, and, carrying her forth, buried her by her husband. 11 And great fear came upon all the church, and upon as many as heard these things. I say it again: The DANGER of entering into SIN? We NEVER know when we will EXHAUST God's grace. Be sure...ANYONE who teaches OTHERWISE is risking the lives of those to whom they declare: "No matter how far you have gone into sin...no matter how far away from God you go...God will NEVER let you go!" Folks...that is FALSE TEACHING...as we do NOT know when TOO FAR is TOO FAR. THAT is the DANGER of SIN. You see...SIN blurs the LINE between SALVATION and JUDGMENT...and BLINDED EYES cannot SEE the BOUNDARIES as they truly EXIST. In other words: SIN affects our DEPTH PERCEPTION. The TRUTH: We will almost ALWAYS be DEEPER in SIN than our FLESH reveals and/or admits. We MUST remember this: Sin is ALWAYS a DECEIVER. If our EXCUSE when entering into SIN is "Grace!"...then we turn the GRACE of God into "lasciviousness." Jude 1:4 For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ. The bottom line? Sin IS a "big deal" to God...and when we MINIMIZE the seriousness of DISOBEDIENCE we MAXIMIZE the power of DECEPTION. Colossians 3:5-7 Therefore put to death your members which are on the earth: fornication, uncleanness, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry. 6 Because of these things the wrath of God is coming upon the sons of disobedience, 7 in which you yourselves once walked when you lived in them. Romans 1:18-25 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; 19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them. 20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: 21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. 22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, 23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things. 24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: 25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.

[@DianaSzucs-jv7yo]

True. Also, every verse they use to defend pretrib is twisted out of shape.

[@LookoutMountain4ever]

@@DianaSzucs-jv7yo But pre-tribs are still our "brethren". Jesus "commands" us to love one another, not unless they are pre- or post- trib. I was first pre-trib, but settled on post-trib in the early 80s. All my churches and pastors have been pre-trib. After all of these years, I have had no post-trib brother to fellowship with. Sure, I've been mocked and shunned by some, but that's their problem. When Jesus looked down from the cross on the evil and adulterous priests, scribes, Sadducees and Pharisees, who demanded His crucifixion, and who were hurling mockeries at Him while He was suffering so terribly, He said, "Father, forgive them, for they KNOW NOT what they do." Jesus so loved even those who crucified Him. Our pre-trib brethren haven't done so to us. If they're not as "perfect" as we are about the rapture, so what? This Civil War in the church against brethren has to stop. It is tearing brethren apart. It is the mark of spiritual immaturity and an unrenewed carnal mind. It is obvious that both sides WILL CONTINUE until the tribulation comes, so why war about it? If they are truly saved, their false belief in a pre-trib rapture couldn't make them apostatize, contrary to popular post-trib opinion. Jesus said the gates of hell wouldn't prevail against His Church (He didn't say, "unless they're pre-trib, then....well....uh, we'll have to see, Shlomo"). His elect are His "elect", and they cannot be taken from Him, nor will they apostatize from Him, just like John Baptist couldn't have apostatized from Him, or Moses, or Elijah, or Noah, or the 11 apostles and Paul. There are no "ifs" in God's election. Even the Gentile king Cyrus, hundreds of years before he was born, was called and prophesied by God to give the decree to rebuild Jerusalem and the Temple. He couldn't have bucked God's will, because God raised him up for that purpose. We got to remember, God PLANNED each and every individual's lives (who they would be, when they would be born and where and to whom, and how long they would live, and what they would do in His "history" of the world, to make His prophecies come to pass exactly on time and as planned) before He created the universe. Otherwise, every prophecy would be a big "if". Jeremiah 32:40, "And I will make an everlasting covenant [by the blood of Jesus] with them, that I will not turn away from them, to do them good; but I WILL PUT My fear in their hearts, that they SHALL NOT DEPART [Heb. "sur", apostatize] from Me." Someone might foolishly say that that covenant is with Israel, not the Church. If that were the case, then God would make an even better covenant with the Jews than with the Church. No, God has made only one "everlasting" covenant in the Person of His Son by His shed blood. No other covenants will be made, for it is the everlasting covenant. And God said they would not "apostatize" from Him. How much clearer does it need to be? But by no means does God advocate a life of sinning. Only those who are truly His will heed the warnings in scripture against sin.

[@loweeization]

I am in a fundamental baptist church that believes predestination. I can't in my heart claim that. God has given every person the ability to believe by the things that have been made and they are without excuse. When I was 11, I by God's great love for children made me to be born again. I wasn't raised in a Christian home but lived near a church where I walked to Sunday school. I asked Jesus into my heart and had an actual rebirth. I felt it through my whole being. I can explain it now as from coming from death to life. I didn't actually understand the great joy I had but I do now as an elder person. I went on to a life of fulfilling the desires of my flesh. Drugs, alcohol, sex, all the depraved things. I even had an abortion😢. Throughout this time in my life I was never free to actually be happy or really even enjoy the things I was doing. I was grieving the Holy Spirit and I knew it. Long story short, Jesus never let me go but gently and lovingly brought me back into right relationship with Him. I repented of that lifestyle and have peace and joy. That is my testimony, if I was predestined I don't know, but I do know that God wishes for none of us to be lost and we are without excuse.

[@LookoutMountain4ever]

Believe me, there are many who have been through similar circumstances after getting saved, including myself. The Lord saved me 47 years ago, so I have witnessed it in many brethren. Jesus promised in John 6:39, that He would lose NONE that the Father had given Him. Match that scripture with Jesus' prayer for His apostles in John 17, of whom He said that He had "kept" the men that the Father had "given" Him. You will find identical wording in John 6:39. Furthermore, Jesus used the Greek word "me" (pronounced as "may" or "me"), which is translated "none" or "nothing" (KJV), which means that "all" possibilities of losing any of them is ruled out. It is Jesus who "keeps" us, not we ourselves. Only those who are truly His will heed the warnings of scripture and walk in holy and obedient fellowship with the Lord. And only they, if gone astray, will hear and repent, the fake Christians will not. You are indeed saved. Rejoice in His salvation!

But many are being seduced by doctrines of devil's I pray for wisdom and discernment of the holy spirit and precious blood of jesus we badly need men like Billy Graham and David wilkerson to name two who preached the truth when they were alive they would be horrified if they saw what is going on now in 2023 may the fear of God arise in the nations especially Britain and America

[@giuseppecatone7360]

Faith alone salvation and OSAS are Biblical Truth, The Thief on the Cross was a perfect example of someone who just believed on our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ trusting who he was and was saved. In Acts, we see the Gentiles simply heard the word of truth being preached by Peter, and believed the Gospel saved right there receiving the Holy Ghost after child-like faith. Here are verses: Acts 10:43-45 KJV To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name *{whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins}.* While Peter yet spake these words, the Holy Ghost fell on all them which heard the word. And they of the circumcision which *believed* were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because that on the Gentiles also was poured out the gift of the Holy Ghost. And Peter confirmed this with the other apostles in Acts 15 that both Jew and Gentile were saved by grace through faith: Acts 15:7-11 KJV And when there had been much disputing, Peter rose up, and said unto them, Men and brethren, ye know how that a good while ago God made choice among us, that the Gentiles by my mouth *{should hear the word of the gospel, and believe. And God, which knoweth the hearts, bare them witness, giving them the Holy Ghost},* even as he did unto us; And put no difference between us and them, purifying their hearts *{by faith}.* Now therefore why tempt ye God, to put a yoke upon the neck of the disciples, which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear? *{But we believe that through the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, we shall be saved, even as they}.* Salvation is by grace Alone through faith alone in the Gospel, the Blood Atonement of Jesus Christ. Verse after verse shows its by faith alone showing the simplicity in Christ Jesus. 2 Peter 3:9 KJV The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. 2 Corinthians 11:3 KJV 3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. Galatians 1:6-7 KJV I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.

[@giuseppecatone7360]

@@Keepitoriginalministry the bible defines for us what "repent" means... In 1 Kings 8:47 & 2 Chronicles 6:37 the word "repent" is used interchangeably with the word "turn", in Luke 16:30-31 the word "repent" is used interchangeably with "be persuaded", in Acts 26:27-28 & Rom. 4:20-21 someone who believes has been persuaded of something. So "repent" is a *{change of mind},* If you start believing something you didn't believe a moment before, YOU JUST REPENTED, that's why in Acts 11 believing is equated with repentance, another proof of this is that 2 Peter 3:9 says "repent or perish" and John 3:16 says "believe or perish", *IT'S THE SAME STEP!!* And there's Just 1 step to Salvation, BELIEVE on the Lord Jesus Christ, and believe the Gospel of Grace found in 1st Corinthians 15:1-4 (Acts 16:31, Eph. 1:13). That's why there's very Little(if any) mention of repentance in the Gospel of John, even though it's supposed to tell people today how to get saved. Also, "repent from your sins" is a phrase often used by lordship salvationists which appears NOWHERE in the Bible, according to Jonah 3:10 "turning from your evil ways" is WORKS, we are not saved by works but by Grace Through Faith (Eph. 2:8-9). If you tell a Lost Person they have to "feel sorry for their sins" or "promise to change" then you don't understand Grace! Now if somebody thinks they haven't commited any sins, It is true that they have to change their mind about that, in order to believe the part of the Gospel which says Jesus Christ died for our sins, and you _could_ accurately describe that change of mind as "repenting(turning) from your sins", but if you try and say "repent from your sins" to mean LITERALLY ANYTHING OTHER THAN THAT, then that would be adding a work to the plan of Salvation and it would land people to hell! Don't get me wrong though, we should(not must) Repent from sin out Respect for God! Antinomianism is every bit as Satanic as works salvation (1 Peter 2:16, Gal. 5:13, Rom. 6:1-2)

[@giuseppecatone7360]

@@Keepitoriginalministry We get saved by BELIEVING in the Lord Jesus Christ, and believing the Gospel found in 1 Corinthians 15:1-4, and once saved you're SEALED🔐 and you become a member of Christ's body (John 5:24, John 3:16, Eph. 2:8-9, Eph. 1:13, Eph. 4:30, Eph. 5:30).

[@BlessedHopeChapelTEXAS]

By the way your comment is worded, it seems like you don't want to do anything to promote Christ and don't want tell anyone anything about Christ or you don't give your testimony about Christ....so that you can say your not performing a “work”, is that what you’re trying to say? If so, then please allow me to encourage you to seek the wisdom from the scripture to determine if you should do anything for Christ. Here are verses to encourage us all to endure and persevere -- straight from the Bible. But someone may well say, “You have faith and I have works; show me your faith without the works, and I will show you my faith by my works.” -- James 2:18 James 1:12 (NKJV) "Blessed is the man who endures temptation; for when he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love Him." Romans 5:3-4 (NKJV) "And not only that, but we also glory in tribulations, knowing that tribulation produces perseverance; and perseverance, character; and character, hope." Galatians 6:9 (NKJV) "And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart." Hebrews 10:36 (NKJV) "For you have need of endurance, so that after you have done the will of God, you may receive the promise." 2 Timothy 2:3 (NKJV) "You therefore must endure hardship as a good soldier of Jesus Christ." Matthew 24:13 (NKJV) "But he who endures to the end shall be saved." Revelation 3:10 (NKJV) "Because you have kept My command to persevere, I also will keep you from the hour of trial which shall come upon the whole world, to test those who dwell on the earth." James 1:3-4 (NKJV) "Knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience. But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing." Romans 12:12 (NKJV) "Rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation, continuing steadfastly in prayer." Hebrews 12:1 (NKJV) "Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us." Here are a few Bible verses that emphasize the importance of sharing the gospel and being a witness for Jesus: Matthew 28:19-20 (NKJV) "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age." This is the Great Commission, where Jesus directly commands His followers to share the gospel and make disciples of all nations. Mark 16:15 (NKJV) "And He said to them, 'Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature.'" Here, Jesus clearly instructs His disciples to preach the gospel to everyone, underscoring the necessity of sharing the good news with others. Romans 10:14 (NKJV) "How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher?" This verse explains the critical role of believers in sharing the gospel-people cannot believe in Jesus if they have never heard of Him, and they cannot hear unless someone tells them. Matthew 5:14-16 (NKJV) "You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven." Jesus calls His followers the light of the world, encouraging them not to hide their faith but to let it shine so others may see and glorify God. 1 Peter 3:15 (NKJV) "But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and always be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear." This verse instructs believers to always be prepared to share the hope of the gospel and explain their faith to others when asked. 2 Timothy 4:2 (NKJV) "Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching." Paul exhorts Timothy (and by extension, all believers) to always be ready to share the gospel, whether the opportunity seems convenient or not. Luke 12:8-9 (NKJV) "Also I say to you, whoever confesses Me before men, him the Son of Man also will confess before the angels of God. But he who denies Me before men will be denied before the angels of God." Jesus encourages believers to publicly acknowledge Him and warns against remaining silent or denying Him. Here are some Bible verses that strongly admonish believers against being cowardly or ashamed when it comes to sharing their faith and proclaiming the gospel of Jesus Christ: 2 Timothy 1:7-8 (NKJV) "For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind. Therefore do not be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me His prisoner, but share with me in the sufferings for the gospel according to the power of God." This passage encourages believers to reject fear and timidity and boldly share the testimony of Jesus, recognizing that the Spirit given to us is one of power, not fear. Matthew 10:32-33 (NKJV) "Therefore whoever confesses Me before men, him I will also confess before My Father who is in heaven. But whoever denies Me before men, him I will also deny before My Father who is in heaven." Jesus warns of the serious consequences of being ashamed or refusing to confess Him before others, equating denial of Him with being denied before the Father. Revelation 21:8 (NKJV) "But the cowardly, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death." This verse places cowardice in the same category as other grave sins, showing that being cowardly in matters of faith is not to be taken lightly. Luke 9:26 (NKJV) "For whoever is ashamed of Me and My words, of him the Son of Man will be ashamed when He comes in His own glory, and in His Father's, and of the holy angels." Jesus makes it clear that being ashamed of Him will result in Him being ashamed of us when He returns in glory. Romans 1:16 (NKJV) "For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek." Paul declares that being unashamed of the gospel is vital because it is the power of salvation, and believers are called to boldly proclaim it. Proverbs 29:25 (NKJV) "The fear of man brings a snare, but whoever trusts in the Lord shall be safe." This verse warns against the fear of others, which can entrap us. It urges believers to trust in the Lord and not allow fear of human opinion to prevent them from doing what is right. Matthew 5:14-16 (NKJV) "You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven." Jesus calls believers to be the light of the world, admonishing them not to hide their faith but to shine openly for others to see. These verses strongly challenge the idea of hiding one’s faith or being afraid to share the gospel, highlighting the call to be bold and unashamed in proclaiming the message of Jesus.

Excellent teaching Joe! Another way Christian’s have apostasies is when they are divorced and remarried like in Romans 7:1-3. The church is just like the world in allowing remarriage after divorce while the covenant spouse is still alive. But they are committing continual adultery and adulterers won’t inherit the kingdom of God. So many churches say there is an exception clause in Matthew 19 but the translations have mistranslated it calling it except for sexual immorality when the correct word is fornication which applies to the betrothal period the Jewish people had.

while I do see the scripture as warning to staying the course, one question is what if someone as a christian fell once and got drunk and died in a car wreck, is that person still saved or is that person lost. Also if one sins does that person become unsaved until they repent, then they become saved again? The scripture makes a difference from practicing sins and stumbling. Gal 5 does say if one PRACTICES those sins listed won't inherit the kingdom of God. Gal 5: 16 I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. 17 For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish. 18 But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law. 19 Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, 20 idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, 21 envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.

Gods law: walk in love or be destroyed When we continue to walk in sin we are not being controlled by the spirit of God. We are being controlled by the flesh and sin. Choosing to walk in the image of Satan rather than the image of God. When we repent and come to the Lord with a whole heart. He places a hedge around us so that we walk in peace. Should we find ourselves not walking in peace the powers of darkness are attacking us. The hedge has been removed bc of some sin which has broken Gods commandment of love; His law. *this is Gods discipline and reproof on a son who sins. A Christian will want to repent so he will ask the Holy Spirit what sin we have committed bc we love Jesus more than any sin. The Holy Spirit eventually will reveal to us the sin. Then bc of the cross and blood of Jesus Christ; bc of Jesus Christ victory over sin and bc he became our sacrifice for sin. The blood of Jesus cleanses us from this sin. We are then forgiven and we are no longer transgressors of Gods law. The powers of darkness have no more ground so they have to back off and the hedge of protection and peace returns. As we learn to walk in the blessings and peace of God we become more and more sensitive about avoiding sin. This is the discipline that leads us to purifying our hearts to love others and Jesus has loved us. *Hebrews 12 False sons refuse to give up the their love for nature of Satan. They devise ways to get to heaven without denying their flesh. They justify themselves with their own form of godliness. They do not know the peace or the fear of God and do not know they have to purify their hearts. Therefor as they continuously break Gods law(love) the powers of darkness are able to bring more and more bondage until they are destroyed.

God cant lie! he promised if you believe on Christ you have eternal life. Your works based salvation isnt salvation. If your truly saved you cant lose your salvation. You are sealed with the holy spirit until the day of redemption. There are dozens of scriptures to support saved by grave through faith not of works so no man can boast. Anyone who disagrees is a false teacher.

[@BlessedHopeChapelTEXAS]

Your opinion we disagree with! But as for God’s word we agree with such as “They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work REPROBATE….Titus 1:16 KJV

[@BlessedHopeChapelTEXAS]

@@BornagainKev Faith without works is dead ~ 14 What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him? 15 If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food, 16 and one of you says to them, “Depart in peace, be warmed and filled,” but you do not give them the things which are needed for the body, what does it profit? 17 Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead. 18 But someone will say, “You have faith, and I have works.” Show me your faith without [a]your works, and I will show you my faith by [b]my works. 19 You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe-and tremble! 20 But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is [c]dead? 21 Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered Isaac his son on the altar? 22 Do you see that faith was working together with his works, and by works faith was made [d]perfect? 23 And the Scripture was fulfilled which says, “Abraham believed God, and it was [e]accounted to him for righteousness.” And he was called the friend of God. 24 You see then that a man is justified by works, and not by faith only. 25 Likewise, was not Rahab the harlot also justified by works when she received the messengers and sent them out another way? 26 For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also. James 2:14-26 NKJV

So those who believe in these doctrines and hold to them even after being told the truth means they are not saved you can tell me after revealing the truth and them continuing in these blapshous doctrines they are saved

[@cycribbs]

Please quit using the niv, this is a perversion of the word of God a perversion of the 1611 authorized edition of The King james, I can give you tons of notes, but the NIV is probably the worst go to Isaiah chapter 14:12, the NIV calls Jesus Christ Lucifer, in this verse it says oh how you have fallen, oh morning Star, the correct rendering of this verse is oh how thou have fallen o Lucifer son of the morning. Revelation 22:16, Jesus is the bright and morning Star not the son of the morning, this is a product of two men who were working with the Jesuits and their names were Brooke Foss Westcott and Fenton Anthony John hort, another verse very popular John 3:16 for God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son, the word begotten is very important because it's of the essence of God, but the NIV and most modern versions say gave his only son and this is false. And I've got hundreds of these which twist the word of God and this verse Jude 4, this is not what it says in the King James. Please get off modern versions you're a good preacher, but you're using a Jesuit Bible

Facts

[@eagle7757]

Once Saved Always Saved is True. John 6:28 Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God? 29 Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent. 30 They said therefore unto him, What sign shewest thou then, that we may see, and believe thee? what dost thou work? 31 Our fathers did eat manna in the desert; as it is written, He gave them bread from heaven to eat. 32 Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Moses gave you not that bread from heaven; but my Father giveth you the true bread from heaven. 33 For the bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world. 34 Then said they unto him, Lord, evermore give us this bread. 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. 36 But I said unto you, That ye also have seen me, and believe not. 37 All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out. 38 For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me. 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. 40 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. 41 The Jews then murmured at him, because he said, I am the bread which came down from heaven. 42 And they said, Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? how is it then that he saith, I came down from heaven? 43 Jesus therefore answered and said unto them, Murmur not among yourselves. 44 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. 45 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. 46 Not that any man hath seen the Father, save he which is of God, he hath seen the Father. 47 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life. 48 I am that bread of life. 49 Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and are dead. 50 This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die. 51 I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world. Ephesians 2:8-9 King James Version 8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 Not of works, lest any man should boast. John 10:27-29 King James Version 27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: 28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. 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.

1 cor. 9:27 But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway. Ja.2:18 Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works. 2 thes. 2: 3 let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come A FALLING AWAY first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; 4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. 5 Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things? 6 And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time. 7 For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. 8 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: 9 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, 10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 11 And for this cause God shall send them STRONG DELUSION, that they should believe a lie: 12 That they all might be damned who believed not the TRUTH, but had PLEASURE in UNRIGHTOUSNESS

​​@@paulwiley777 what do you think Believe and Faith mean? What does Ephesians 2:8-9, John 10-27-29, KJV, mean? If Jesus Christ took the punishment for sin, you can't still be condemned for any sin. Since you have freewill, you chose to believe in Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ in John 10:27-28, KJV, he keeps you eternally secure. In John 10:29, KJV, proves that Father God, keeps you eternally secure. Therefore you can't forfeit your salvation. You chose to believe in him, no one forced you to. John Schimmels is a liar when he says Once Saved Always Saved is a popular doctrine. Once Saved Always Saved is not popular at all. It is only taught by Free Grace, Free Grace Baptist churches/Any other churches that teach Free Grace. Most So called "Christians" believe in a works base salvation or believe in Salvation losing beliefs. Joe Schimmel is the real wolf in sheep's clothing.

[@eagle7757]

Believe means to be persuaded or convinced Jesus is the Christ Christ means Messiah/Savior Jesus Christ is the Son of God He Saves people from Everlasting Death He Died on the Cross, was buried, and Rose again on the third day. He Conquered Death for all Humans, no matter who they are or what they have done or will do. Salvation To believe in Jesus Christ, is to believe that he gives you everlasting life if you believe in him. New King James Version John 6:47 Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me has everlasting life. Do you believe Jesus Christ in the above verse? John 3:16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. 1 John 5:1 Whoever believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God, and everyone who loves Him who begot also loves him who is begotten of Him Once Saved Always Saved John 6:37 All that the Father gives Me will come to Me, and the one who comes to Me I will by no means cast out.
