Tim Moran, Thanks for your input! I would tend to agree with your response. However, I'm interested in what others have to say in response to this interpretation, because Hebrews 10:26 would thus read (paraphrased - this is not inspired), "If we deliberately keep on sinning after we have received (salvation), no sacrifice for sins is left..." This passage then takes a bold stance against the idea of eternal security. Any other thoughts on the matter are certainly welcome! |

2 | I have a related question for anyone... | Acts 8:13 | christian7 | 69680 | ||
when we recieve salvation which is of the Lord... do we lose our own free will to choose God's way or the worlds way? are we no longer a free moral agent to do as we please? Mat 6:24. No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon. must we not choose or is that right taken away when we chose Christ? as much as we love the Lord is it not written: KJV 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 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, 10. Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. now these things I once was but am not any more. But do I lose my freewill to do these things again. If I chose to do the things again such as getting drunk and committing adultery and the word says that "these" shall not enter the Kingdom of God. I am scared to death of God's Judgement and fear to test God to see if He allows such to enter into His Kingdom.Knowing what His word says..."THESE SHALL NOT ENTER" is enough to keep the fear of God where it needs to be. I would much rather hear: ASV Matthew 25:21 21. His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will set thee over many things; enter thou into the joy of thy lord. I am glad that my salvation is dependant upon Jesus Christ alone..but I can't act as though I haven't seen what God says in His word. God Bless |

Quote" when we recieve salvation which is of the Lord... do we lose our own free will to choose God's way or the worlds way? are we no longer a free moral agent to do as we please?" No, your free will is still there, but the question is is if you are a save person are you willing to do world's way? As a save person I always get the example of Paul: Ga 2:20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me. If Christ live in you, and not yours do you think its your will lead you in worldsway or to God's way? God bless, Johnny |

my way always leads to destruction KJV Jeremiah 17:9 9. The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it? it is God's way Johnny...my original post was #69532 the question about the if's in the Bible and how that I am struggleing with them..now I ran aross this post and it kind of goes with what I was looking at...well in a round about way...now as I stated I FEAR GOD and to think that many people still do things that the Lord says that these people will not enter into The Kingdom of God makes me struggle with the fact that we still have the right to chose what we will do and if we do the things that God says such will not enter in then are we going to enter in? being lead by the Spirit and following where the Spirit leads are based upon our free choice...I choose God's way and God's leadership and I don't think you can do as you want to against God and recieve a well done my good and faithful servant... God Bless |
