1 | "ONCE SAVED ALWAYS SAVED"!!! | Matt 22:37 | Hank | 30357 | ||
Art, are you saying salvation is like a light switch -- on-off, saved-lost, on again-off again, saved again-lost again? How many times does one have to be saved in order to be saved? How many times must he be born again in order to be born again? Is our salvation so very iffy that we must be careful to keep at least one repentence ahead of our sins? ....... Without attempting to exegete every verse or to parse every word of Luke 15, I will cite the words of 15:2, "this man receives sinners" as being the key to all three parables. Miss the key and the parables will remain locked. Not one of the three parables is talking about "multiple salvations" -- or however one chooses to put it. --Hank | ||||||
2 | "ONCE SAVED ALWAYS SAVED"!!! | Matt 22:37 | Rom831 | 30477 | ||
sory, I cannot see that. This one talks about a son, who had an inheritance from the father (God). That means he was saved. Then the father, God, clearly says the son was lost and dead. Then became found and alive "again". I guess I don't like the term to "loose your salvation". Its not a matter of loosing it or having it taken away. Its a matter of rejecting it when we turn from God. How many times? Don't know. How many times can you truely accept Christ then turn away? In reality, I can't see this happening much, but I have seen it twice. One turned away then back (after a rape). One turned away after seeing his mother waste away with cancer. The second hasn't returned unfrtunately. Bless...ARtS |
