1 | unconfessed sin - loss of salvation? | 1 John 5:13 | ranaymarie | 36095 | ||
I was reading a well known author today, and he implied that an unconfessed sin, a lie, evil thought, slip of the tongue could keep a person out of heaven.....what are your thoughts? Can a person that professes Jesus Christ to be the resurrected Son of God loose his salvation if he fails to confess a sin or sins before dying? | ||||||
2 | unconfessed sin - loss of salvation? | 1 John 5:13 | cloud | 83465 | ||
THAT IS A FALSE TEACHING. Some people teach that at the judgement seat of Christ, God will punish believers for all the sins they commit after they accept Jesus Christ and Savior. This concept implies that when an individual accepts Christ, the blood of Jeus washes away all sin from the time of birth until that moment. However, from that moment on, he must answer to God for every sin. WE MUST CAST OFF THIS TEACHING BECAUSE SCRIPTURE PLAINLY TEACHES THAT GOD DOES NOT BLOT OUT SOME OF OUR SIN AND LEAVE OTHERS FOR US TO FACE ON JUDGMENT DAY. See: Isaiah 44:22, Ps. 103:12, Jer 31:34, Heb 8:12 John 5:24 Another false teaching about the Lord's judgement seat is that if a believer confesses his sins, he's forgiven the sin he confesses, but if he refuses or forgets a sin, God will punish him ofr it at the judgment seat. We must reject this concept as well, for the reasons metioned above. IF CHRIST IS GOING TO PRESENT ME WITH A LIST OF SINS AT HIS JUDGEMENT SEAT, HIS DEATH ON THE CROSS WAS MEANINGLESS. CHRIST TOOK ALL MY JUDGEMENT AT CALVARY. IF HE TOOK MY JUDGEMENT THER IS NO SIN JUDGEMNET TO FACE AT THE JUDGEMENT SEAT OF CHRIST. This is taken from John Haggee's book "Knowing the Secrets of God" You also got to know what judgement it is taking about when you are reading the Word. There are I think 7 judgements of God. Some of them are not even for believers. After we are born again God declares us righteous (Rom 3) by faith. We are not righteous because of anything we do or anything we don't do. So it is possible to do something and not be it. It is possible to do something unrighteous and still be righteous, because we are only righteous because God declared we are. THE BORN AGAIN EXPERIENCE IS AN ETERNAL THING. WE ARE ETERNAL SONS OF GOD. WE POSSESS ETERNAL LIFE RIGHT NOW. READ 1 JOHN 5:13 AGIAN. IF WE COULD LOSE IT, IT WOULD NOT BE ETERNAL IT WOULD BE TEMPORAL. BUT IT IS EVERLASTING IT HAS NO END. |
