1 | Can one loose their salvation ? | Bible general Archive 1 | ashestobeauty | 24595 | ||
If you choose to not obey His word and live your own life after you become a Christian You can loose out on your rewards and blessings. You can loose out on peace and joy, you can loose out on all that God has planned for you here on earth.... But I do not believe you can loose your salvation if you sincerely asked Jesus to be your lord and savior. An example of this would be 1 Corinthians 5:5 1 Corinthians 5 1 Corinthians 5:4-6 deliver such a one to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that his spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus. If you choose to destroy yourself here on earth you will live a bitter life and reap much sorrow but your salvation is still promised. So my point is... why live in sin and miss out on all the blessings life has to offer to those who live according to Gods word and in obedience to His leading? Be Blessed! ashestobeauty |

2 | Can one loose their salvation ? | Bible general Archive 1 | Hank | 24607 | ||
You make two good points, ashestobeauty, (1) by affirming the biblical truth of the eternal security of the believer, and (2) by posing the tacit question of who, having once walked with Christ, would really want to fall back into the ways of the world. I tend to think my pastor hit the nail on the head in a recent sermon in which he said that he believes that the truly regenerate believer will, by the power of the indwelling Spirit, lose his "want to" -- meaning, of course, that he will not want to miss the joys of serving Christ in favor of leading the old life of sin. When I see a person who claims to be saved leading a life that is decidedly unbecoming to a child of the King, I wonder (but do not presume to judge) whether his claim to salvation is genuine. Thanks for a fine post and God bless you. --Hank | ||||||
