1 | Why did God allow Polygamy? | Gen 2:21 | fmp6954 | 236031 | ||
Hello Again Justme From what I can understand you feel that there is more to being saved than just believing . Then are you saying that you are saved when you are baptized? About the lady with cancer, She had her whole life to find Jesus, and obey the gospel , why she waited till she was on her death bed I don’t know. One might think that she didn’t know for sure if their was a God or not and only wanted to cover her bases. I don’t know if she truly believed , or if she repented, or if she confessed before men that Jesus was the Son of God. I do know that she was not baptized according to Gods word. Only God knows her heart, and if He decides to save her so be it. You stated that Baptism could be one way of confession. Confession is before men . You confess that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, I don’t believe baptism can do that. I do agree with you about obedience, up to the point where you were talking about satans trap and emotions, their you lost me, I would probably agree if I understood what you ment. Falling from Grace Lets consider that: Is when you become a Christian and following Christ and growing in the Lord. Sometimes called walking in the Light. If you discontinue fellowship and start sinning, sometimes called backsliding, your are not walking in the light any longer, and you step out from under the umbrella of grace. Therefore falling from grace, Of course you can repent and come back to Christ. In Christ Fmp |

Fmp: Glad you took the time to respond. As I write this we have snow falling with thunder and lightening. We love this show it;s so awesome and powerful. We need the rain and snow so badly. So many crops were lost last year. God has blessed us, thank the Lord. The lady with cancer is or was in the hands of the Lord. I did my part as instructed in Scripture. However, if there was no hope of heaven for her, unless she was immersed in baptism, should I have said that there was no hope at all for her? Mark 10:26-27 "They were even more astonished and said to Him "Then who can be saved?". 27. "Looking at them Jesus said, "With people it is impossible, but not with God; for all things are possible with God." NASB No one an be saved on their own efforts, only by the Grace of God cab anyone be saved. As I understand Scripture that even our faith needed to respond and submit to the Holy Spirit's plea for us to surrender and become a follower of Jesus Christ is all a gift of the Holy Father. I would say if a person does not "follow" Jesus and His commands then that person is not a christian. For instance, if a person says they are a christian, but hates church, then not only is he not following Jesus, he contradicts Scripture. Hebrews 10:25 In sich a case I would think this person had a false faith. Falling form Grace and loosing one's salvation id where we see things differently. I am a Once saved, a born again, geuine christian is secure in in the salvation of Jesus Christ saving ability and guarantee that we are His. John 10:28-29. Just as you are able to use Scripture to show how you arrive at a person Lost position in Christ, and there is merit with that. I also can show from Scripture once genuinely saved you are secure. So because we both are christians there is no reason to disfellowship one another. There are some area's that Ther is no room to compomise. Praying to any other than person than the Father, Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit in not Christian. Praying to a Saint or the mother of Jesus is unscriptural. This is an area I can not agree to disagree. How are we tracking up to this point? Blessings justme |
