1 | Can you lose your salvation? | Revelation | Hank | 45190 | ||
tomn, as I recall, sir, the question was directed to abimco, not to you. But so that you won't feel left out, I'll ask you a question: Why do you need to know why I asked abimco a question? --Hank | ||||||
2 | Can you lose your salvation? | Revelation | CDBJ | 45533 | ||
Hi Hank, something just dawned on me; maybe those that say that they can lose their salvation really can, because they aren't trusting the same object that we are, therefore the Lord hasn't given them the assurance that we have! CDBJ | ||||||
3 | Can you lose your salvation? | Revelation | Hank | 45572 | ||
Interesting thought, CDBJ. While I have no reason (or right) to doubt the faith, sincerity or motives of those well-meaning souls who hold to a faith plus works salvific formula, it strikes me as a bit odd that some of these folks would be happy to carry a bumper sticker around town that says JESUS SAVES, but at the same time think they need to give grace just a little boost with their good works. It seems somewhat incongruous to me to proclaim JESUS SAVES, and at the same time believe that His grace alone is not sufficient to keep one saved, that one must DO SOMETHING to keep himself saved, or in other words, to keep from "losing" his salvation. No, that can't be. If one is powerless to get himself saved in the first place, surely he is just as powerless to keep himself saved. Only Christ can save us. Only Christ can keep us saved. --Hank | ||||||
4 | Can you lose your salvation? | Revelation | CDBJ | 45660 | ||
My sentiments exactly, I didn't do anything to get it, so how can I do anything to lose it; and besides all that God the Father has given me to his Son, I belong to him and I am sure that he is able to keep track of and keep something that belongs to him. John 6:39 (KJV) 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. Brother, that's you and me! I have had pets that have wondered off on their own and I didn't know how to find them, but the way I see it, God doesn't have this trait, of not having control of his things to the point that he loses them.
