Greetings and welcome to the forum. In regards to your question, let’s go at it from a different tack. If I am saved, and I am, by grace through faith in the finished work of Jesus Christ who died on the cross to pay the penalty for ALL my sins. This being said, it would be the optimum of arrogance and close to blaspheme for me to assume that I could possibly commit a sin that God didn’t know about when He saved me in the first place! I even shudder to think of being so suggestive. Now on top of that even to suggest such a condition could happen, but it can’t, it would bar me from ever being saved a second time due to the following. The following (Amplified Translation) is used here because it spells it out the way is should be translated in common everyday English. Hebrews 6:1-6 (AMP) (Emphases added) 1 THEREFORE LET us go on and get past the elementary stage in the teachings and doctrine of Christ (the Messiah), advancing steadily toward the completeness and perfection that belong to spiritual maturity. Let us not again be laying the foundation of repentance and abandonment of dead works (dead formalism) and of the faith [by which you turned] to God, 2 With teachings about purifying, the laying on of hands, the resurrection from the dead, and eternal judgment and punishment. [These are all matters of which you should have been fully aware long, long ago.] 3 If indeed God permits, we will [now] proceed [to advanced teaching]. 4 For it is impossible---------------[to restore and bring again to repentance] those who have been once for all enlightened, who have consciously tasted the heavenly gift and have become sharers of the Holy Spirit, 5 And have felt how good the Word of God is and the mighty powers of the age and world to come, 6 If they then deviate from the faith and turn away from their allegiance—-----[it is impossible]----- to bring them back to repentance, for (because, while, as long as) they nail upon the cross the Son of God afresh [as far as they are concerned] and are holding [Him] up to contempt and shame and public disgrace. Those that don’t have this assurance of ETERNAL SALVATION fixed in their souls are confined to a stage of what the Koine Greek calls “NEPOS” pronounced “nay-pee-os” or babes in Christ. 1st Cor. 3:1-3 God doesn’t need to do things twice because He might have forgotten something that we might do in the future, He does it right the first time! Now have a great day in the Lord and relax in what He has done for you, CDBJ |
