1 | disciplerami, how do we keep salvation? | Heb 6:6 | David F | 75682 | ||
Hello, losing salvation is a very strong statement. I say this because it's not just turning away from God to try to live our own lives apart from Him. In this scripture Heb.6:6 it talks about nailing Jesus to the cross all over again. So for us to lose our salvation or well what did the people who crucified Jesus on the cross do to Him. They did more than turn away from Him. They cursed Him, spit on Him, beat Him, and forcably pushed Him away. So I think we have to take some strong steps to lose salvation, but once we're there I don't think it's a matter of Him forsaking us when we've already so strongly forsaken Him. We make the choices of which way to walk. Hope this brings some clarity. | ||||||

David F, what you have related here is how I understand losing one's salvation. A Christian sins, probably daily, but he doesn't fall into and out of grace daily. The blood of Christ covers the sin immediately. That immediate blessing doesn't release the Brother from the necessity of reflection, remorse and repentance, but he does have immediate forgiveness. In order for him to lose his salvation, he has to shake a fist at God, he has to make the decision that he doesn't care anymore. He in essence, becomes party to the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. Then God removes from him the saving grace and his sins are recorded against him. You are correct. It isn't easy to fall, but it is definitely possible. |
