It is (my opinion) that those who think that they can lose their salvation are putting more emphasis on the inabilities of man, then they do the abilities of God and his sovereignty to save those that are resting in of his plan. John 6:39 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. How many times can those that believe this way be saved or born again, it there a limit? Or is there no hope for them once they commit these sins that you mention? Hebrews 6:4-6 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost, 5And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come, 6If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame. What if you might have committed one of these bad sins that you suggest, that means that you might be in the category of Hebrews just mentioned! |

If I endure, as scripture says I shall be saved, but if I endure till the end it is only becuase I continued to rely and depend on Him. We have to abide in Him. But it is His work as I continue to trust in Him. Reread my last reply, I didn't ever suggest a single sin would cause someone to become hopelessly lost |

You said, Reread my last reply, I didn't ever suggest a single sin would cause someone to become hopelessly lost Yes that is right you did; so then (what are these many sins) that you assume can cause the loss of your salvation? And as for the first part of your post, " If I endure, as scripture says I shall be saved," where in the scripture did you find that, which is in context with your salvation through Christ? |

To begin with, of which I am sure you know, when you take your first breath you are a sinner, because we are born in sin. Romans 3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; We inherited this from dear old grandpa Adam, as we were in him when he sinned. The Bible say that we can reverse the outcome of this condition by being in Christ. 1 Cor. 15:22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. The object according to this is to be in Christ; and therein lies the problem. Ever since Christ died on the cross to pay for the sins of the world, sins have not been the issue for salvation. 1 John 2:2 And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world. Now if our individual sins are not the issue what is? There is only one thing that can keep a person out of heaven because God did all the work that is required. It is the work of the Holy Spirit to reveal to a lost world what the one sin is that can keep a person from eternal life with God and from being (in) Christ John 16:8-9 And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: 9Of sin, because they believe not on me; The only thing that will keep a person out of heaven is rejecting God's Christ, his Son Jesus. Believing in Jesus Christ is all that God ask of us for salvation. Jesus Christ has paid for all our sins, past present and future. The big problem though is with the English word that has been translated believe from the Koine Greek word (pistis). The depth of the meaning of pistis cannot be grasped by using one word in the English and this is where people miss out. You said, (If they never sinned, would they need Christ?) The last part of your question is apparently loaded so I will answer it this way; there was one that was born that didn't have any sin, so did he need a savior? CDBJ |
