1 | Can we loose our salvation | Bible general Archive 1 | justme | 67172 | ||
New Creature: May I be perfectly honest with you? Lets not spin a thread a foot long on my computer screen, ok? I think we have opposing views on Eternal Security, which in reality makes no difference, as we both see the importance of following Christ and to our faith being kept strong, and our walk of faith being continual. The debate of "can we loose our salvation" reminds me of an Old Testament historic event. When the people were told to put the blood of teh Lamb on the door posts and mantels, and the Death Angel would pass by, and the first born would not die. I feel confident, because human nature is as it was then, and always will be. Some went to bed and slept with total peace knowing their trust in the Lord was enough, and there faith was strong. I am reasonabley sure that there were those who stayed up and prayed the whole night through, and equally felt there faith was strong, and felt praying for the Lords protection, was an act of faith. Neither of these reactions show any weakness in their faith in the Lords ability to save them. They aproched the situation by both puting the blood of the Lamb, on as they were told. Their response in waiting for the death angel to pass was quite different. I have the feeling I would have been cutting zees and slept like a log. Some might consider that lazy or weakness, I would say content, that the Lord would do as He said. I don't want to make this unsoveable debate, and go on and on, as in the past, several times on the Forum. For me there are bigger fish to fry in theology. I have studied this question from just about every way, my bias mind can. No one has been able to convience me you can loose your salvation once you are a genuine, born again Christian, at least in the last 50 years of Sunday School and personal Bible study and Bible College or Seminary. Faith that falters, had a flaw from the begining. That is what the story about the seeds is all about for me. I am not going to show anything but love and respect for those who so choose to believe other wise. One thing is for sure we will know when we see the LORD face to face. May I suggest a look at King David. Ih lied, lusted, took another mans wife while she was still married, concieved a baby with her, then had her husband killed. That is a very dasteradly bunch of evil deeds. David repents, says to God against you and you only Lord have I sinned! Well I am sure that God must change our temperments when we go to glory, or when David passed on Uriah would have had a little something waiting for David at his arrival. Then the Lord says David is a man after my own heart. Now if this does not show a very Merceifull, Gracefull, forgiving Lord, then I sure don't know what does! New Creature, we have different views, and there is nothing I can say, even from the Scripture that will change your understanding, and the same is true that I am just as firmly andsolidly planted, in my view as well. We have just saved us lots of notes, and a thread that thas repeated on this same topic at least three time this last year. I respect you, and pray the Lords blessings on you. justme |

Cyclist:-) Please let only the Lord be praised, for His working through the Holy Spirt which gives us the words to say in times of need. There is nothing in me that is excellent, except the Lord Jesus Christ to whom I am unworthy to take any praise that is His due. My knee is so well, the doctor dismissed me last Friday. I went to a special program three times a week and got those lazy nerves and mussels working again. This was a real blessing from the Lord. I am so thankful and blessed! Thank you for informing me about the removal. I found it to be in such extreme poor taste and judgement, I felt as it were an attack on being a follower of Christ. I have never responded in such a firm way, ever before. I felt so deeply about it, I had to make my distain very clear. So I thank you for your amen. May your day be blessed. justme |
